Some guys emailed Take Two pretending that they had downloaded the PC version of GTA IV of some dodgy website…
After a few emails went back and forth they received this one which may have just ruined Rockstars big E3 announcement…
Hello,
Rockstar and 2K Games are both parts of Take Two Interactive, you have corrected the right company.
The PC version of GTA IV has not even been announced for release and is still in development so is not about to be released on a website we have no knowledge of. Have you got another version of GTA? There are other versions that are available on-line, the list are below, could it be one?
GTA
GTA 2
GTA 3
GTA Vice City
GTA San AndreasIf it’s not one of these and it is (somehow) a Pc version of GTA IV, you can see why we would like to know the website address
Kind Regards
2K (And Rockstar) Games Tech Support
So whats the problem? Well Rockstar had not yet confirmed that GTA IV was going to be making an appearance on the PC in this generation… Some tech support guy is in a whole heap of trouble now…

Was there ever any real doubt it would be on pc though?
Not exactly rocket science!

What if the tech support guy is confused? If they haven’t made it public yet, I doubt somebody at tech support will know about it.

Yeah I agree. More likely a confused Tech Support monkey. I wouldn’t read too much into this particular e-mail though.
I’m not saying it won’t appear on the PC though. Games that are already built for the 360 are relatively easy to port to the PC.

Every console GTA has been on PC. Why make the worlds best selling game and not port it to PC?

Just to be mean and spiteful? We don’t get WoW, they don’t get GTA, fairs fair. 😉

Rock Star Boss: Do you know what an NDA is?
Techie Dude: No…
Rock Star Boss: It means you’re fired.
But yeah, no surprise that it’ll come to PC eventually.
