It’s been a busy GTA V week, what with its console release and all the analysing of files with PC gamers searching for further evidence of a PC version. More files are uncovered and even claims of beta screenshots.
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.
Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
Of course PC version is coming, hopefully next-gen versions as well, cause once I hook up my next-gen system my current gen one is going in the closet, and it would be a shame to miss out on the inevitable DLC content.
It will come.. just look at the success of GTA 4 on the PC and the crazy amount of user created content for it. How can any self respecting developer not look at that with pride and admiration and want to see what the community can do with GTA 5?
It's easy to see the PC version running right now. Just look at the trailers. The console version looks nothing like that.
I'm cracking up laughing at all of these 'rumors' about a PC version of GTAV - every single console version of Grand Theft Auto ever has appeared on PC the next year. ALL OF THEM from GTA3 on. How is this a surprise? Everyone tearing apart every single detail they can to try to prove it or figure it out - you lot are hilarious.
why do ppl assume pc gamers just pirate games when the first versions dumped to torrent sites are xbox 360. millions of ppl downloaded the 360 version a full week before it got to retail.
