'GTA V' PC Petition Hits 450,000 Signatures, Becomes the 10th Biggest Campaign on Site

The petition is reportedly the biggest gaming petition ever on the site, and the 10th largest global campaign in the site's entire history.

....and the petition to NOT make a GTAV PC is at 11,283 vs. 428,926 to make GTAV PC.

It's a safe bet to say GTAV PC will be released as the PC version is already in production.

MasterCornholio3865d ago (Edited 3865d ago )

I'm pretty sure the game will come out on
PC and next gen consoles.

P.S I hope Rock star does a better job with the PC version than GTA IV.

Deadpoolio3865d ago

How many times do they need to say that they are not going to bring it to next gen consoles before people actually grasp it....It's been said at least 7 times that NO it will not be coming to PS4 or One80...Seriously!!!! PC yeah most likely they have never said no to that but 7 times saying NO it is not coming to next gen consoles, its getting old and it's overkill at this point

Stsonic3865d ago (Edited 3865d ago )

I think it's safe to say the entire game was made with PC in mind and then just sampled down for PS3 and 360.

Hopefully it's the same way they made Max payne 3 opposed to gta4 as the former is flawless on PC.

KazHiraiFTW3865d ago

Max Payne 3 is one of the best ports I've seen. Runs very smooth, with some really impressive high res textures added. Also great job on the audio. These 2 things are the main reason the game had a whopping 35gb install size.

On topic: People can stop with the petition, GTA was born on the PC and every game has been released on the PC. Why would they even consider stopping support for the PC with GTA5?

JsonHenry3865d ago

The PC will be the lead platform for most new games thanks to the x86 architecture of the new consoles. Most games would have to go out of their way not to release on PC.

GodGinrai3865d ago

I can definetly see that being the case for multiplatform games, now. Crossed my mind months back when both companies confirmed they were using custom AMD APUs. I think this is good for the development side of things as almost every dev out there has worked with X86.

nirwanda3865d ago

I've just signed it purely because I would like a next gen version.

What's the point of the petition? The game is obviously coming to PC next year. No petition necessary.

Donnieboi3865d ago

Can't hurt though. At least they know they tried.

Marcello3865d ago

We just need to send Trevor round to Rockstar to um persuade them hihihi :P

XboxFun3865d ago

I agree, with the money R just made on the first day there is no doubt that this game is coming to the PC as well as Xbox One and PS4.

Deadpoolio3865d ago

PC YES....PS4/One80 NO....They've said it like 7 times now...It's not coming to next gen consoles, people need to get over it #DealWithIt and move on with their lives.

camel_toad3865d ago

I'll definitely be buying it again on pc. Loving it on ps3 but I want 1080p, 60fps and the inevitable mods.

Plagasx3865d ago

I hope it's this year though..

Thats a lot of Pirates hehe /s

sorane3865d ago

If you want to see a lot of pirates go look at the gta5 360/ps3 torrents.

Bill_Willson_CIA3865d ago

Still the sales on consoles are 10x better

sorane3865d ago

^^ source? and if you post a link to vga you'll just get laughed at.

VonBraunschweigg3865d ago

Funny how PC gamers always demand sources with exact number before they even want to think about the influence of piracy. Waiting, less optimised ports like GTAIV, or no port at all like with RDR, could it have something to do with more people downloading than buying? Nah, show me the numbers! Well there aren't. Does that mean the salesnumbers are good on PC, knowing the userbase is always far bigger on PC, and knowing still most people play GTA on PC? Well not now, but they used to. They are not good.

Right now there's no PC version, that's why the only versions on torrent sites are indeed only for consoles. All platforms are hacked, some are more hacked than others so there's a difference. On console the vast majority does not have a modded machine and still buys the game, on PC it's, how should I put it for you numbercrunchers, well less favourable. But if you really want numbers, just check your harddrives.

If it was the opposite, consolegamers would be waiting for a port right now. But we're not. For now, back to...ah well. Let's end it with a positive note, the game is well worth the waiting.

sorane3865d ago (Edited 3865d ago )

^^ so you're saying some troll that throws out some bs 10x amount number shouldn't have to show proof of that? I should just take this guys word like he actually knows?

"They are not good."

Source? Or please tell me how you know the sales for gta4 pc were bad. Do you work in Rockstars accounting department? What am I checking my hardrive for? Oh and my gta4 runs just fine. In fact it's run better than the console version since the day I bought it at the same settings. Love how you trolls just pull stuff out of thin air and then cry about it when someone actually wants a tiny bit of proof. Come more prepared next time please, or at least think for a minute before you start posting things that you have absolutely no clue about.

Sloppy seconds for PC owners, you can have it!

sorane3865d ago

AmkOwns3865d ago

@sorane oh wow dude, them graphics they look like real life holy sh*t ..you must go out a lot :/

AmkOwns3865d ago

@soran last time i checked there was an article here saying they made roughly around $800m from tehz ps3 and xbox...

GodGinrai3865d ago

Im saying this as a console gamer that has sampled the delights of PC gaming over the last 12 months..the PC version will rule them all. I will still buy it on the platform my friends all play it on.

Plagasx3865d ago

Lol, if Sloppy Seconds means 60fps, full 1080p and awesome mods then cool with me.

andrewer3865d ago

Dumb move to not release it on PC, R* is just playing hard to get lol

Rockstar Need to Learn From This Mistake for Grand Theft Auto 6

Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.

Cost of realistic looking movement.

lucasnooker36d ago

Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…

Profchaos36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

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

MetalGearsofWar36d ago

They already learned they dont have to actually make a great game

sagapo36d ago

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.

Zhipp36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

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

jznrpg36d ago

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

Profchaos36d ago

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.
