It was announced quite some time ago but release date was not confirmed. Thanks for update but I guess this should be in the respective thread. There was no need for a new thread. Nevertheless thanks for the update. Thanks.

This is Rock stars' most hyped game. initially they kept it as PS3 exclusive, then during development, added xbox too. But even then they failed to sell it like they wanted to, in GTA league.
Now this is the only reason I see this game making it to PC.
I was hoping for & still am for red dead redemption PC.
i'm also hoping that r* are making Bully 2 :))

Yeah this sucks big time. I placed a pre order on green man gaming for $40 for the complete edition. Till yesterday, it showed me the release date as 8th november. When I logged in today, it told me I had three more days to go.

It is available on steam but only for north america as of now. Oh well...

PC with a 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo E8220, 4GB of RAM and a Radeon HD 5770 1GB struggled to play it at even the lowest settings.

Hopefully a patch will release soon , i am also hearing the port has been very bad, choppy framerates even with very high end machines.

Looks like when Gta 5 will be launched most of us will receive huge shocks seeing the minimum requirements and performance on mid end cards.
what will happen with my 9500Gt? :banghead:

Finally got my copy today. Very impressed with the port. Runs smoother than gta 4 and is more colorful by a mile. Facial animations look amazing on the pc. Happy to say that pc gamers aren't shafted :)

Can you please tell how many fps are you getting and at what settings and resolution? I had planned to purchase the game but after hearing the bad reports about the pc port I got wary and cancelled the thought. May be you can help me reconsider my decision. Of course your rig is way better than mine but still it'd give me an idea.

Hi guys. Don't know why but afterburner and fraps aren't working in game. So no screenshots with fps numbers.

From my rough guess i would say the game is hard locked at 30 fps. Game uses fxaa and i am running it maxed out at 1080p.

Interesting thing is that when you activate it , rockstar has a mandatory patch that must be downloaded before playing. So internet connection is a must during installation .

Is this game like Mafia or GTA or Godfather? Which could be the closest?

Neither. There are action sequences but they seem out of place. The main part is the investigation for clues which gives you more questions for interrogations. It's more of a point and click type of game.

It is also linear like mafia and not open ended like gta.

For me the highlights are the voice acting, the music and the ability to play it in black and white which makes you feel like you are in a movie :)

It is not an action heavy game. More like a puzzle solver. If you expect another gta or rdr you will be disappointed.

Not sure what is wrong with me. I loved this game at friends house as we played it together and discussed the case. However when i installed it on my PC and played alone , it got boring. Finally uninstalled it.
