GTA V Next Gen and PC Versions Should Already Exist

Because of the difference between current gen and next gen/pc architectures the porting time would be quite high. So unless Rockstar plans to release PS4/Xbox One and PC version (if at all) in 2014, they already exist.

The fact we haven't seen any evidence is because of how good R* are at keeping things under wraps. There are definitely PC/Next Gen versions, next gen is too big of an opportunity to miss. I have no doubt that this game would be a system seller if it was bundled with a PS4/Xbox One.

Hellsvacancy4634d ago (Edited 4634d ago )

Evidence? http://n4g.com/news/1354636...

I'll get it for the PS4 one day i'm sure, for now the PS3 version will keep me happy whilst I wait for FFXHD and Dark Souls 2

I want to make sure I finish this current generation of games before I adopt a new

codelyoko4634d ago

Yea but the author is talking about a completed game for Next Gen and PC. Not just almost finished code :) But yea you are right.

GarrusVakarian4634d ago

I said they are good, not perfect :p

yeahokchief4633d ago (Edited 4633d ago )

Dark Souls 2 is going to be so good.

I have no regrets about cancelling my PS4 between GTA V and Dark Souls 2.

I think GTA Online will be next gen but I wouldn't be so sure about GTA V. Rockstar has never done a port. They're always focused on something bigger and better.

I think it's best to keep GTA V exclusive to PS3 and 360 and go ahead with GTA Online for PC,PS4 and XB1.

r1sh124634d ago

yeah. There is no doubt it will be in the final stages for PC/X1/PS4.
Why would they hurt their own sales by releasing it to next gen so early.
Give it 6-9 months (as with all previous GTAs) and it will be released.

SJPFTW4633d ago

I find it unlikely. Most people who are going to buy XOne & PS4 have either a 360 or PS3 already. Unlikely they will hold out on the biggest most hyped game ever. Rockstar has been working hard on GTA 5 since the 4th one, so the game is optimized for current gen consoles.

If anything they will probably go full gear and start work on RDR2 or GTA6 and make a true next gen game that takes full advantage of next gen hardware.

Pope_Kaz_Hirai_II4633d ago

There is no excuse to not have the pc version release now.. so if alot of pc gamers pirate it then they have themselves to blame.

RumbleFish4633d ago

I would not say that R*'s release tactics are justifying piracy, but I too find it annoying that I have to wait for the PC version. I played GTA IV on PS3 and on PC, but this time I will wait for the PC version.

KYU21304633d ago

I agree it would be a system seller, But i don't think next-gen versions of this games exist (i could be massively wrong). If anything we could see GTAV online only on next-gen console in the first part of Q1 2014 as R* are touting GTAV online as a separate but equal experience. Doing so would give them time to pull out code that ties the online experience to the disc based game.

This would also allow them to offer a next-gen title early in the cycle (especially since they have already stated that GATV online will be free). While it is a multi-platform title it would be a large feather in Sonys Free to play cap.

CuddlyREDRUM4633d ago

The fact you call Rockstar (R*) is just a show at how well you would lick their shit.

GarrusVakarian4633d ago (Edited 4633d ago )

Lol, what?

Nevermind, just checked your comment history, being angry, cynical and miserable seems to be the norm for you. You should see someone about that.

A Wii U Version of GTA V should exist to, but that ain't gonna happen neither.

noctis_lumia4633d ago

does anyone play that "next gen thing" anymore ?

Murad4633d ago

Dude I still want to play it. No need to be harsh or rude or even worse, act like it's a plague, since in reality, it's trying something different than the PS4 and Xbone.

CocoWolfie4634d ago

im expecting at least a downloadable last gen version seeing as the next gen aint that compatible, but i doubt ill complain anyhow :p

Angeljuice4634d ago

Although I have been saying this for a while, I never trust a 'journalist' who is so bad at spelling and lacks basic grammatical skills. What differentiates this person from anybody on n4g? He's incompetent at his job/hobby, so why believe he knows anything about any other industry?

cococabana4634d ago

Chinese scientists wouldn't be able to spell half as good as this guy yet they would know more about architecture then you ever could. Putting it as bluntly as you did ^^

xharrypotterx4634d ago

*his spelling
*so why should we

Using your logic you are incompetent and thus your opinion should and will be discarded.

Angeljuice4633d ago

Journalism is not my chosen field. If I were a journalist I wouldn't publish something full of mistakes like that. Your corrections are incorrect also.
Do you know what a journalist does? He communicates using words. Words are his tools. Do you trust a tradesman who can't use the tools of his trade?

I am one of the n4g users I referred to in my previous text you fool.

Rockstar launches official marketplace for mods

Rockstar has launched an official marketplace for "every server and every player" to buy mods: Cfx Marketplace.

I wonder how much of this isn't just taken work of others who have modded for free.

Edit: Also, great way for R* to take popular ideas and build them into GTAVI based on demand.

fr0sty127d ago

What I see happening here is, R* is going to ban mods in GTA6 UNLESS you buy them from the marketplace and R* then gets a cut of that sale.

ActualWhiteMan127d ago

Ah, perfect timing with them taking down the Bully online fan mod. Greedy a$$ company.

Christopher127d ago

It's okay as long as they get a cut of the money.

fr0sty127d ago

Expect R* to force it on you.

Snookies12127d ago

Yep, right there with you. I'll happily donate to a mod creator if it looks really cool, or if I enjoy it. But expecting payment up front? Nope, not touching it.

IanTH127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

I'm not entirely sure how to read this, as it doesn't seem exactly like an exact parallel to Bethesda's paid mods shenanigans.

Rather than single player stuff, this appears to be aimed solely on Cfx Servers. From what I've gleaned, apparently Rockstar bought the Cfx mod team several years ago, coming a few years after weird contentions led them to ban a few of their members. Ultimately, the question is if they plan to keep this contained to only online/servers.

I have to guess to a degree yes. It'd be pretty hard to "force" paid mods for single player when modding files locally on your own machine, but much easier for servers they'll control. So perhaps this is their soft launch ahead of GTA6 online and they'll clamp down more tightly on non-official servers going forward? Ever since they've become a 1 or 2 property studio, I haven't really cared much for Rockstar stuff, so I'm not entirely up on everything surrounding this. Sounds like it has the potential to be problematic further down the line, but right now fairly easy to ignore...I think lol.

PlayStation Store’s top downloads of 2025

O'Dell Harmon Jr. writes: "Before we say goodbye to 2025, let’s take a look back and see what were the most downloaded games of the year. It was a great time for sports, shooters, and some new PlayStation VR2 games. Sports favorites topped the charts in US/Canada and EU, with NBA 2K26 and EA Sports FC26, respectively.

Juggernaut GTA V found a home in the top three for both regions, with new 2025 release Battlefield 6 claiming second place in the US. Fortnite took top place for free-to-play games, and Beat Saber continues its PS VR2 success."

FH5 4th in Europe compared to North America 14th. Not surprising.

LucasRuinedChildhood129d ago

I think it shows how shortsighted it was for Sony to let go of Evolution and not get them to make some sort of competitor (open world Driveclub?) 10 years ago.

bionicstar128d ago (Edited 128d ago )

its a hard bet to make. hindsight is always 20/20.

Christopher128d ago

After Driveclub's reception, hard to say it would have done well enough to compete. It's easy to dream of such a thing, but to make it happen? It's taken how long for CoD to be dethroned? And it was dethroned by Hogwart's Legacy and has gained it right back just the next year.

I would like to see a list that has both free to play and paid games together, but at least we have this.

To this day GTA5 is a top downloaded game and it makes me wonder if the industry is really ready for GTA6. I imagine almost nothing else will sell during that game's release window.
