Nice. Never been a GTA fan. I thought all the GTAs from the past gen were really bad. But this one looks good.

GTA IV on the PC should be incredible... Let's just hope they left the doors wide open for modders. IMO that's the biggest factor drawing people to the PC over the consoles in GTA's case.

Yay! We'll be able to avoid the problems that the game had on consoles and instead have NEW problems specifically related to PCs .

I'm happy to see it coming to PC, I hope they do a good job on the port. I'll finally see if all the hype was really worth it for myself.
(I always liked the GTA games. Not a HUGE fan like some people are, but always liked the game nevertheless)
