Yes the rumour that simply will not die is back and just as unsubstantiated as ever. This time the rumours are being stocked by Amazon’s German and French operations who have both listed the PC versions for pre-order in the last 24 hours.
Neither the German or French sites have an expected delivery date listed yet but that doesn’t mean Amazon doesn’t have some inside information that they’ve accidently leaked as they have on a number of occasions before.
At the time of writing both listings were still live but I screen grabbed them for posterity anyway.
and
Unfortunately we know the listings aren’t true because our own serial leaker, BT Games, has yet to list the title so for now we have to just sit and hope. Another reason I wouldn’t give this much credence is that the title is listed for Windows 7 or Vista and there is no way Rockstar are going to ignore the tens of people on Windows 8.
I have to admit that the longer this goes on without confirmation that a PC version is coming from Rockstar the more worried I am getting that it may not happen. Not all the great Rockstar games make it to PC (I’m looking at your Red Dead Redemption) so maybe the pirates have finally destroyed the market for Rockstar?
Do you think it’s possible that it will never land or are the millions of PC gamers simply far too many to ignore?

There is always hope. Even if it’s just a false hope.

I think we should all come to terms with the fact that PC gamer has taken a turn towards the casual side. Honestly would not surprise me if this game never makes it to PC.

Except Rockstar are testing a PC title. If not this then something else.

I’ll believe it’s coming to PC when I see an official announcement. I’d like it too, but I’m not going to cry if it doesn’t.

Max Payne 3 came to PC so I don’t see why R* would have an issue with the Master Race.

to claim piracy killed rockstar with releasing their games on pc is really funny actually, seeing as tho there where multiple torrents up 3 days before official release for the xbox360?, so what about that piracy, i would say to blame Take2, have you seen there Q4 expected stock price?, it went from $2.50 to $3.15 – $3.45, they are holding onto the PC release to go with the next gen, imo

Just because its possible to pirate a game on 360, does not mean that the situation is as rampantly out of control as it is on PC. A massive portion of console gamers wouldn’t even know what a torrent is.

True, but it still doesnt change the fact tho, pc gamers have proven to purchase games, not as much as they pirate but they still purchase, i would say thank you to Lord GabeN for that

Torrent ~ noun ~ A strong and fast moving stream of water or other liquid. Don’t sell us console gamers short, we know lots of crap. 😉

Zoe has the lasso, but she’s into Indies.

And uses one of those hipster PCs. She’d probably want to adopt all the ones she finds & end up as the crazy old neighbourhood console-gamer lady. Think of the cats!

Such a kind heart she has, and from what I’m reading in the comments section she’ll be able to hold off the zombies when the Apocalypse starts.

I think PC is too demanding for the engine that’s running GTAV. It was most probably designed around sub-hd graphics. GTAV looks muddy on console.
