Man i so can't wait for the PC version of this to come out. SOON!

 

Looks so awesome.

lol I'm praying to play this, but those deadlines I will believe when I see them. I'm taking a good stab here and guessing Rockstar will have MP issues with the amount of PC players. from launch I can only guess MP will be shacky and patched later, as that would be a miracle :D

Any idea on the price? Considering the game is over a year old now could we expect a price of $39.99?  I'm guessing no as $49.99 or $59.99 price point with some publishers is more commonplace as of recently. In the past ports released a year or more later after the games initial release are sold for less. I think that works out best since most everyone that wanted to play has played by now so they're reluctant to shell that much towards a new copy of the same game on another platform. Steam doesn't have any price or pre order up yet and the game releases in three or four weeks?

$45 but that will drop instantly as soon as the game comes out and they all try to compete on day one.

I think you'll easily get it for $40, if not $35.

I myself don't buy games until they drop to

^ That will be cool if so. I'm trying to spend less of my actual money which is why I sell trading cards, items drops from games on the Steam market towards wallet funds and look for a deal where I can get one. I'm just not into gaming as I used to be and have been focusing on other things. Unless a games is part of a genre I like, has decent gameplay, a good story, good soundtrack or fun/wacky mechanics it's really hard for me to get into. Steam prices make me cringe even more so when it comes to older titles that have been out a while. Most sale prices should be the non-sale price for games and the sale price discounted even lower. I remember being able to snag retail copies of some games dirt cheap in the past but rarely see deals like that anymore. :(

That site doesn't strike me as particularly legitimate.. and I wouldn't count on getting GTA V PC for less than $59.99 on steam right off the bat. As old as GTA V is on other consoles (even the newer x1/ps4 versions), I doubt we'll get that much of a break seeing how greedy publishers have been as of late.

 

My biggest concern is if it will run well (and it better on my brand new GTX 970).

It's very legitimate. I've used a lot of the stores they link to (e.g. GK4, Instant Gaming, CDKeyHouse, G2A etc.) dozens of times.

 

dlcompare is absolutely fine.

Has there been any more news on the heists apart from "early 2015"?? I've had a google but couldnt find anything.

 

Not official but....

 

 

 

 

According to Techspouse, the update will be released on Jan 27, 2015 when it becomes available to all consoles e.g. Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS3 and PC. Per Latin Times the DLC will come with the release of the PC version for "Grand Theft Auto V." A "GTA V" tipster named nillxforums reportedly also confirmed the Jan 27 release date. The update is believed to be on its final stages of development and will be ready for download soon.

As we head into 2015, we would like to share the first screens and system specs of Grand Theft Auto V for PC as well as a new release date of March 24, 2015.

 

Our apologies for the slight shift in the date but the game requires a few extra weeks of testing and polish to make it as good as can be. Moving a release date is never a decision we take lightly and is a choice we make only when we know it is in the best interests of the game and our fans. Thanks everyone for your understanding and we assure you these few extra weeks will be worth it when the game does arrive in March.

 

GTA Online for PC, which will support up to 30 players, will launch alongside GTAV for PC and will include GTA Online Heists.  Online Heists for consoles will be launching in the coming weeks ahead of the PC launch.

This week in science news Image by Steve Johnson via Pexels Catch up on some of the latest science and out-of-this-world updates that arrived throughout the week: The end of the universe: A new Cornell study suggests the universe will not expand forever. Because of the negative dark energy, it could stop expanding and collapse into a "big crunch" in 20 billion years. The impact of traffic: Researchers found that urban traffic pollution, specifically nitrogen oxides and fine particles, quickly alters the atmospheric electric field measurably in urban areas. This indicates that atmospheric electricity could become a valuable tool to monitor urban air quality and activity. The light of life: A study revealed that living organisms emit a faint, invisible glow called ultraweek photon emission. This natural light significantly decreases after death and increases during stress, offering a highly promising new method for noninvasive medical health diagnosis. Mysteries of time: A new study suggests that the direction of time is not fixed in certain quantum systems. Standard equations of energy loss remain time-symmetric, which means laws can theoretically run backward or forward. This week in gaming The latest issue of Pulasthi's Weekend PC Game Deals curates several exciting games on sale this week. Epic Games Store is now hosting Robobeat and Citizen Sleeper as free-to-claim titles this week, which you can add to your library. Latest issue of Xbox Free Play Days features four new games: PGA TOUR 2K25, Two Point Museum, Assetto Corsa, and Dead by Daylight. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass got another Call of Duty addition, the latest soccer game from EA, an indie road trip hit from last year, and more. Summer sales have made NVIDIA's gaming service cheaper, and it has added support for seven new titles. That said, here are some more stories from the gaming world: Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely From the review corner This week, Steven got his hands on the Creative Sound Blaster AE-X internal PCIe sound card, primarily intended for headphone wearers. In the list of pros, it comes with a high-quality headphone amp, low-latency communication enhancements via ASIO v2.3, offers 256-times the audio quality of CDs via DSD256, and has great build quality. On the other hand, it's a bit on the pricier side, only offers stereo output over speakers, and has no EMI shielding. More price drops! We got you covered with some hot tech deals all week. For some reason, if you missed out on a great discount, here is a summary of some recent deals that are still alive: GEEKOM X16 Pro at GEEKOM - $1,119.67 (17% off) Acer 4K Webcam for PC/Mac with All-Metal Unibody Sculpted - $59.99 (14% off) Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB - $369.99 (42% off) Nothing Ear Wireless Earbuds Bluetooth - $73.15 (51% off) PowerColor Reaper AMD Radeon RX 9070 16GB - $579.99 (17% off) To view all of our recent deals, click here.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      By MrElectrifyer · Posted

      It certainly is a waste of time clicking it if you're not interested in Windows 11's development. If that were the case for you, you could easily ignore the headline and move on given the headline makes it clear that's what the article is about. Instead, you're contradicting yourself here calling it a waste of time yet clicking on the headline and commenting... If it were a totally different topic being presented than what's stated in the headline, then you'd certainly have a point, 'cause that's totally deceptive and unavoidable if not actually interested. On the contrary, here you can totally avoid it if you're truly not interested.

      No, it did not work. I did not read the article. I saw the title in my Feedly feed and came to continue putting pressure about such titles on a website I used to love. In fact, based on your reply, it seems you think it's fine to visit click bait title articles to find out what it's about, to waste people's time. That's up to you, mate. I remember when news websites had pride in their content and therefore didn't need to resort to cheap tactics.
