    I would hope so, a few months after the PS3 and XBox360 release *crosses fingers* No official announcements as far as I am aware though. :/

    If they stay true to previous form, expect to see it about 8-9 months after the console release.

    Yarr harr flibberdygee, do what you want 'cause a pirate is free... Etc etc. :D

    Also, GTA4 - which is a first person game, is miles better when using a mouse than the crappy analogue thumb things on the playstation, or any console...
    It just works better on PC.

    GTA4 will be third person unless they've made some radical changes recently...
    Definitely agree though, Vice City was so much better on the PC thanks to the mouse and keyboard. 360 controller should be alright for it though, and for the sake of playing the game 8-9+ months before the pc version, I think I'll make do...

    So if we were supposed to keep our opinions to ourselfs, there would be no point in boards then would there... Cop on and think about it before you blow your trumpet.

    Definetely prefer the PC version. Its much better too. looks way nicer too. I'll probably play a small bit of it on a friends console but i'll hold back playing properly till it comes out on PC. its worth the way to play the better PC version

    No, PC version is way better, you can use the mouse, put in mods, save screenshots,
    and maybe a bit of hot coffee ;)

    Just spent 15 minutes typing, but was logged out. When I clicked back, all gone.

    The short version: no, as 360/P3 graphics jump not big (think San Andreas), and will depend on testing (360/P3 = standard, PC = varied).

    Also, hope it'll come on duel Steam/DVD release. Steam release will allow easy get and play on day of release, as well as allow people to get it in the shops (non BB / want the disc).
