I would hope they learned a lesson from the last one not being on PC, still a ridiculous decision IMO...

Hopefully it may come a few months after console release...

Get a proper gaming platform lads.

So between this and TLOU 2, I'm on board a few hype trains.

Choo choo mutha f**kas :pac:

I'd be shocked if it didn't come to PC, but they're going to hold off on announcing it until a few months after the console launch.

It's weird GTA v made it to PC, you'd think this would just start out on it with consoles.

Anyway, the theories are on the up again. Saw this comparing the old leaked map.

They say his name in the trailer, it's not JM anyway...

If it's to do with him at all, could it be his son or something?

Much easier to focus on developing for consoles and worry about PC afterwards. Makes sense and usually results in a better game too as resources aren't split trying to support 3 platforms (5 if you include Linux and Mac) at the same time.

well seeing as modern console are all x86 based it isnt really that hard to develop along with pc, love rockstar but i hate the way they treat the pc people.

Arthur Morgan, member of the Dutch Gang. They used to steal from the rich and give to the poor until Dutch became a bit insane and the gang 'disbanded'. Dutch then formed a new gang consisting of mostly young native Americans.

Will be interesting to see how John fits into it if at all.

A guy posted online ages ago claiming to be a rockstar employee saying the game will be a prequel where you control 3 characters from Dutch's gang. On the ball with what's been released so far.

It's a prequel so couldn't be his son.

The more platforms, the more time consuming it is.

Not exactly, the developments kits are almost identical for both consoles using AMD Gpus.

It is not difficult to make a PC version.

Making a PC version can be more difficult than console. With console at least you know the specs, not the case with PC. It would definitely take more time and effort to make a PC version.

Exclusive to PS4 according to Rockstar on Facebook, that's a load of bollox if that's the case, everyone should be able to play RDR2, I played the original on Xbox...

Not really true now either at the rate Xbox are releasing ones.

Am I weird in feeling slightly cold about the trailer? It looks great but nothing is grabbing me, it's more RDR so no complaints on that front but I just feel a bit "been there, done that". The GTA V trailers in comparison were pure hype fuel.

Thought the same thing. It will still be a great game though!

I knew I had that Xbox for something. I play most of my games on PC.

Some good stuff here. They reckon Morgan is played by Roger Clark, a VA who grew up in Ireland.

Graphically the trailer looks a bit disappointing to me with some dodgy looking animations on both horses and people.

I thought that too and assumed it was just because I watched on my phone. :-(

Looks good from that trailer. Looks like you will be doing a lot of robbing in this one. Robbing the train looks like one mission anyway.

Dang'namit CJ. Awls ya had ta do was follow the dang train!

It didn't look pre rendered to me. Not gameplay but most of it looked in engine.

Will there definitely be none at all? I would have thought it will happen but ages after console release like with GTA V.

Yeah, that's about as much as we can hope for i think. They probably won't talk about it for a while though.

It's been 16 years since GTA3 came out. What do you need to see gameplay wise? You know exactly how this game will play.
