    I'm cautiously optimistic, after the horrible mess that was GTA IV. That said the newer consoles use modern PC architecture so..........

    Tempted to blow my money on pre-order tomorrow but the caution on this forum is infecting me.. Will get my hands on the game sooner or later though. Here's hoping it's as much fun as GTA SA.

    It will be perfect in terms of optimisation i hope :)
    It will require a GTX 670 + a quad i5, for recomanded config :)
    Minimum is gonna be XBone config..

    GTA 3 was a complete blast, but I never finished one after that.

    My best ever chase experience in a game was one of the gta3 missions. I chased that dude in car.. On foot.. I thought I had him once when the car flipped over and exploded but he got out and ran somehow.. Must have went on for 10 minutes at least..

    It's a great game, look forward to picking it up on sale one day for PC... played it on 360 at release as I didn't want to wait years for the PC port, and even despite the poor performance and random stutters, it's a blast. In my opinion it's a significantly better game than Watch Dogs, hopefully they do a good job bringing it to the PC. :thumbsup:

    That's the word on the street...er,internets. Then again, MP3 is a 50GB download so.....

    I'm cautiously optimistic. I won't buy it until the GOTY edition comes out, but since both MP3 and GTA5 use the same RAGE engine, it may stand a chance at being a decent port.

    Wasn't Max Payne 30 or 35GB? Still, that's a lot for a video game.

    It's getting pretty crazy the amount of space these games are taking up. That's part of the reason I got a 1 TB drive, because "I'll never fill that up!" 5 games later...-eleventeen Gigs of space left...*sigh*

    Yeah, that makes sense.

    It will be just as bad as Watch Dogs, BF4, and whatever else comes out in the beginning. But it will get better as time passes.

    I'm excited about this one... loaded up GTA4 on my laptop a few days ago and having a blast with it. Oddly never could get into Watch_Dogs, total snoozefest for me for some reason on that one, thought maybe I was tired of these open world type games. I was glad to see that wasn't the case :thumbsup:

    Ah, who cares? Not me, I had a chance to finish some games I had in my Steam and GOG library... And buy even more games...
    But still, it will be a welcome addition to PC games. Now I wish they would also port RDR :D... Yeah, not gonna happen...
