So this title launches April 29 on consoles only~ I've always been intriqued as to why they don't launch PC with the console launch and now I found out.

USA Today got a quote from Rockstar stating "We have proven through revenue in the past releases that there is an increase over the lifespan of the game by delaying a universal engine (PC) release by at least six months. Why? Console consumers are just too ignorant to find methods to produce distributions of the game in a timely manner. They (console consumers) also don't mind paying the full MSRP of a game title. We found PC gamers often refuse to pay the full sticker price and can quickly pirate a release."

I bet he gets fired for that one...but I definately agree with him 100%

You're Nikolai "Niko" Bellic, who leaves his rough Eastern European town to pursue the American dream. His American cousin, Roman, promises that the streets are paved with gold; but Niko discovers he was lured here to work for Roman's small cabstand and help him get out of debt with loan sharks.

The game takes place in New York/Jersey and features multiplayer modes. There will be no nudity but instead, DUIs.

I probably will~ hopefully it's alot less of the same reptitions and more interactive. I liked vice city alot better than the last one even though the vast long roads we're cool.

doesnt take as long as san andreas to get around, the city is definitely very detailed to new york, of course renamed to liberty city, there are no properties to own in this game though, no territories, but the complex storyline and side missions make up for the lack of that

I got a 360 from a friend very cheap, so I will buy this once I got somewhat tired of Oblivion, which hasn't happened yet.

It comes out on PC on December 13, 2008. It's already ready to ship but they are going to milk it for all it's worth before it appears on teh Pirate Bay in easy access form. Spore comes out in September so I think they are teh screwing up by waiting that long imo irl atm kk thx.
