How dare Rockstar have the temerity to ignore a release aimed at the most vocal of all format players?! Did They Play? Well, no, since it clearly wasn't released for PC, which presumably is this user's format of choice. Diagnosis Suck it up. Regardless of how the PC gaming community feels about their own awesomeness, console gaming remains the most marketable side of the industry, and Rockstar's tidy haul so far justifies the decision not to go all out with a multi-format release. Let's be honest, Rockstar could have made another chunk by releasing to the PC, just as they could if they had waited to release Next Gen, and also pushed out a mobile version for smart phone gamers (especially after the success of GTA III's re-release) but they didn't, and that's no reason to write the game off. We get it, PC gaming is literally the bomb, and there's no doubting that playing on a high-end, high-spec system blows the limitations of current gen consoles out of the badly pixelated water. But PC gaming also comes at a cost to the developers. It could simply be the case that Rockstar don't want PC modders to get into the code of the game, explore and exploit and potentially uncover something like the Hot Coffee code that infamously caused them a head-ache after the San Andreas release.
