GTA V releasing on PC Jan 27 2015... Here's the reason.

Great and now PC gamers should just STFU and wait. If it came out a month or two ago, unpolished, looking like sh*t and gobbling up more VRAM than Watch Dogs..

 

Everybody would be b*tching and moaning like crazy. Feeling butthurt and mistreated because 'game developers don't care about the PC master race'. 

"moaning"

Very much looking forward to this.

How is it that people can pump out a new Assassins Creed across all platforms every year, but Rockstar takes over a year to bring GTA5 to PS4 and XBone, not to mention even PC?

Because in AC Series they just reuse from the previous intallation then polish it a little bit, add some new effects. Then boom new AC game. Unlike GTA V that has no distant predecessor.

AMD announced this on their facebook page. Mantle confirmed?

Don't call "props to R*" just yet. They could still screw us over. Remember, we're getting GTA5 ~16 months after initial release. They've delayed it by 2-3 months, when they previously said the PC and next gen versions were due at the same time. This could mean they're actually trying, or it could mean they just don't care and are more focused on DLC for last gen consoles.

fml still no mantle support?

OK I'll bite, if all they did is smooth out bugs and add new items and textures they're either very ineffective or simply bad at their job. What sounds more likely to me is the money thing. However what I'm hoping for is that they had issues with the multi-player expanding to, I don't know 64 players?

Whatever the reason I won't be buying it at full price, I rarely do that at all and certainly not a game that's been out a year.

Rockstar get your **** together dudes!
