Grand Theft Auto IV - Post-Release Update 9
- Posted by -=}{oT~dEv1L 666=- on July 27th, 2008 filed in Grand Theft Auto
We know that everybody has been craving for a PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV recently. We know it. The PC versions of previous Grand Theft Auto titles have been great. Their possibilities have been endless with user modifications.
At this point of time, when an announcement is scarce, rumors are as intense as ever before. For a video game as big as Grand Theft Auto IV, its definitely got it’s fair share of such rumors.
Also, we will touch on Ultra Ben-Buja’s third brand new Stunt Montage installment, which features mostly Motorcycle stunts. Do scroll a little bit down this post for the Stunt Montage video, which certainly looks impressive from the amount of accolades its got.
PC version listed briefly on ESRB’s Site
On Grand Theft Auto IV’s entry over at the ESRB’s (Electronic Software Ratings Board) site, “Games for Windows” was listed briefly under the platforms table, but was removed from the website shortly after. Could this be the biggest clue to the Grand Theft Auto IV PC version puzzle? Check out the rest of the rumors to find out.
The Malaysian PC Gamer Magazine Rumor
Malaysia might be just across a bridge for me, but I would still have to file this as a rumor. Emerging from a Malaysian blog, it seems that the current July 2008 issue of the Malaysian PC Gamer magazine is touting a PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV on its magazine cover page.
“GRAND THEFT AUTO IV: NOW ON CONSOLE, SOON ON PC”
Rumor, or genuine new source? Of course, we have got to wait for confirmation. At least, if there are any Malaysian readers reading this post (we know that there’s a high possibility), please help us debunk this myth. Any help is appreciated. Stay tuned for more updates on this.
The E-Mail Rumors from Rockstar Games Support
This might or might not be a rumor. Many people have tried to trick the Rockstar Games technical support staff into thinking they have managed to download a PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV, then proceeded to use this social engineering trick to allow them to accidentally “leak” the existance of a PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV.
According to those who have tried out this trick, they were successful and most of them received a reply via E-Mail stating that Grand Theft Auto IV is still under development for the PC and kindly asked them to be stay tuned to the Grand Theft Auto IV’s official website.
Could this be a hint of a Grand Theft Auto IV PC version announcement sometime in the future? I don’t know, but just be sure to be stay tuned to the official site of Grand Theft Auto IV, as the E-Mail says, or you might be missing out on the news.
The Third Ultra Ben-Buja Stunt Montage
As you know, Ultra Ben-Buja has just released the third Grand Theft Auto IV Stunt Montage installment, which this time only includes motorcycle and helicopter stunts. He has evidently put quite a lot of effort into the making of the video, so do watch it!
FootNote
Surely, so many hints and clues have pointed us to the Grand Theft Auto IV Games for Windows port, which seems to be coming sometime in the future. With the promising looks of a PC release of Grand Theft Auto IV, we would expect an announcement from Rockstar Games sometime soon. So, do stay tuned for more Grand Theft Auto IV updates, right here!
