So I guess to get Playstation players familiar with Los Santos, Rockstar has released GTA Sanandreas on the Playstation store today for $15. I think I'm gonna download it for nostalgia's sake. Would've gotten it on Xbox Live if Microsoft didn't take the classics section off the marketplace. Why did they do that anyway?

Rockstar has started tweeting from its Epsilon Program Twitter account recently, hinting that more Grand Theft Auto V news may well be on the cards. The Epsilon Program is a tongue-in-cheek parody of Hollywoods' favourite religion, Scientology, and the tweets have been alluding to "the truth" with the hashtag #truthseekers.The bizarre cult look like they may play a role in GTA V, while aforementioned allusions to "the truth" could have something to do with San Andreas' pot-smoking hippy who was also named the truth, and voiced by Easy Rider's Peter Fonda. Could he be making a comeback?
Rockstar has also updated its News Wire site with The Epsilon Program screensaver, which outlines the goals and pledges of the religion. Did you know the Earth is 157 years old? - fact! You can take a look at a YouTube version of the screensaver below, if you can tolerate the elevator music, and you can take a look at The Epsilon Program Twitter feed for more here. There's also a website for The Epsilon Program here.
I remember reading somewhere that Rockstar is not going to released GTA V on PC this time.
I forget where though and it would be strange considering every other GTA game has been on PC.
I'm replaying GTAIV. It's not as boring as I remembered it. I'm having a lot of fun. I guess I didn't realized how crazy detail the game was.

I don't remember that being entertained by Take-Two, at all.

Also, how can people claim that the next Xbox is not official when devs are talking about releasing games for the next gen consoles? It is a joke to think that the next Xbox is not going to be released when devs are making games for that console, already.
"The GTA 5 release date for PC remains a rumor, though a large number of non-console gamers have spoken out online, banding together to demand the new "Grand Theft Auto" title launch on computers as well. Rockstar has yet to confirm the game will be available on PC by September 17."
From that article. I'm not saying its not coming out on the PC, but they haven't released any sort of info that it will. It probably will be.

That's what that meeting/conference is about in May: they are supposed to confirm/deny/announce or whatever for Next Gen and PC. I am 3000% sure they are releasing it for the PC...just probably later than consoles (evidence: why develop for DX11 for the game if not for a release on the PC? This could be for the nexgen consoles, however....but it seems more likely that the DX11 stuff is for PC.)
Nevermind: confirmed.
Preorder on France's Amazon site for PC:

UK, as well:

Why are they dragging their feet with an official announcement?

Make senses to release it on PC. The series originated on the PC and because of Steam and etc, there is a viable market for it as well.But, pre-orders doesn't necessarily mean it will be released on PC.
In this case, it does. Amazon cannot put up pre-orders without an auth-request from the supplier. If it is a mistake, it is taken down almost immediately and refunds issued (but a mistake it is not: Amazon is not stupid enough to put up a pre-order for an item this big, this far in advance, without a request coming directly from the supplier: they've been doing this for ages). Those pre-orders have been out for almost 2 weeks. Take-Two are just dragging their asses on the official announcement.
There is something going on in Windsor that is not going on in NYC. Why did the European market get an auth for pre-orders on the PC and the US didn't?
