Rockstar Hint at PC Release for Grand Theft Auto V

Every Grand Theft Auto game thus far has crept its way onto the PC somehow, meaning theres every reason to expect that GTAV will follow suit at some point. Rockstar hasn't officially announced that yet, but Rockstar Leeds recently posted a listing for a Graphic Programmer, whose responsibilities would include bringing the studio’s “latest titles” to PC.


The listing said - “Rockstar Leeds are currently looking for a talented graphics programmer to help bring our latest titles to the PC platform. Working together with the other Rockstar studios, you will be responsible for maintaining the studio’s uncompromising quality bar, delivering the highest quality PC experience possible.”

The posting also makes mention of “working with skilled developers on Next Generation games”, which suggests that Rockstar are planning to support the PC well into the life-cycle of the upcoming consoles.


Personally as a PC gamer I'd love to see the game ported over to the PC. The PC is renowned for its sharper graphics and better gameplay than consoles overall so I would love to see this game with max specs to look even more gorgeous on next gen graphics. What do you guys think? If this pertains is it a good move?

I'm a lifelong gamer and share my passion with the world in the form of streaming my games on twitch.tv - www.twitch.tv/terrorhertz and making YouTube videos about all the games I enjoy. I'm also a budding games journalist here :)

My gaming journey began in the Christmas 1992 when aged 6, I got my Sega Mega Drive with Sonic One and World Cup Italia 90. Since then I have played and own pretty much every console since then, just check my collection video on my YouTube channel.

Now days I mainly play PC games and got into the PC side of things when I started playing Everquest in 2005. This game opened my eyes to the mmorpg genre and since then have played most MMO's of which World of Warcraft was my most played. Right now I'm playing and streaming DayZ and FIFA with a few other games thrown in here and there. I'm a games journalist and write weekly articles and monthly reviews and previews whilst also uploading 3+ videos weekly to my YouTube channel where you can find loads of awesome HD gaming videos - www.youtube.com/terrorhertzhd

I've worked as a hardware/software technician for Apple the past 4 years and really enjoy working with computers. I have built/modded/overclocked PC's since around 2007 and it's a massive interest of mine. My other hobbies include video editing, carp fishing, golf and playing guitar.
