I need to go back and play the first one it's out on PC. I think I already bought it... not sure.
Same. While RDR2 had awesome graphics and environment and I did
eventually ended up enjoying the game, I remember RDR1 being a much more fun video game to play. For years I had been contemplating re-playing the game via the X360 emulator Xenia, since that provides a better experience than back-compat on current-gen or last-gen Xboxes. But I had been holding out for years for a PC version. That's one reason why I never bought the X360 version. I borrowed it from a friend and played it. Told Rockstar they could have my money if they put it on PC, for an
appropriate price. Took a good while but finally showed up. So yeah I've been waiting for a good sale to grab that game. RDR2 I paid $20 for, and while that is more than I wanted to pay, in the end I wouldn't exactly say my money was wasted. But I seem to recall RDR1 being a better game. I don't want to blindly trust my memories, so I need to play through it again and re-evaluate it.
I hope it's because they want to launch on PC at the same time.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Aw man, you and your hilarious joke that we all wish was true but know it will never be true (based on their past history).
I got RDR2 for PC and realized it is the most boring open world game I have ever played. Didn't like how the story was going either.
Man it took me over 30 hours before I could get into that sh1t. I'm surprised I had the patience to do that.
If that happens you're gonna be mad you didn't use your one wish on lottery numbers.
Hahahaha yeah!
But, yeah, took me two or three attempts to get past that initial slog.
While I did get through it on my first try, as I said above it took me 30 f*ck1ng hours just to start getting into it. I almost gave up on the game at multiple points before that.
Only ever played 4 and it was ok, just ok. I’ve had 5 for years (free on EGS) but never could get into it - something about the gameplay just felt off
I've played all since 1, only beaten a few of the 3D ones. The whole entire series has been hit or miss for me. I've enjoyed some, and didn't care for others. But I'm willing to check them all out. One thing I will say about all Rockstar games is that the controls suck. At this point it's a regular feature of their games.
4 had that notoriously sh1t PC port, saddled with GFWL on top of that, and then they had the nerve to charge whatever insane price it was at launch, after the game had long been out on console and was sold new at discount prices. 5 I think launched on PC at $40, which was far too much for such an old game by that point. They had done a remaster of the game for 8th-gen consoles (PS4 and XB1), and the PC version that came out after that was based on that version. One of those situations where I feel like the only reason we got a PC version to begin with is cuz they had done the work to port to x86-64/AMD64 for the 8th-gen consoles. But yeah still I felt they charged too much, when the PS4/XB1 version could be had brand-new for discount prices.
Something similiar will probably happen with 6's PC version. They'll release it well after the XBSX|S and PS5 version, or they'll do a remaster for the next console gen, and then after that port to PC. And probably charge too much money for it.
Those poor release date targets at other studios...
Yyyeeeaaahhh...
I went to a midnight launch for GTA V on 7th-gen consoles when it first came out, cuz a friend was picking it up. There were sooooo many people. I have never seen a turnout like that for a video game launch, not even for Halo 3. I used to work at EBGames (under GameStop ownership) and we never saw something like that when I was there. It was absolutely ridiculous. I was like there is no f*cking way every single one of these people are going home with a copy. It was at a strip mall GameStop, the police had a decent presence, there was a huuuge-@ss line, and the entire shopping center's parking was lot was full of cars and people. I couldn't believe so many people wanted the game, and at launch before they've even had a chance to actually play it. I guess people don't really do physical purchases anymore, but if that was still a normal thing, I wonder that the turnout would have been for 6.
I remember messing around with IV on either Xbox or PS2 way back but that was about it.
GTA 4 was X360 and PS3. Original Xbox and PS2 had GTA3, Vice City, and San Andreas.
