i own a ps4, xbox one and a pc. iv'e had some of the best times with my pc with mods and all kinds.

but keeping it updated was getting boring especially when im primarily on new gen consoles and big pc releases are few and far between.

and then this stuff happens, kind of glad iv'e decided to sell my pc rig and stick to consoles in a way. but ill still miss the 75% of my free gaming time wasted on my pc fixing bug, errors glitches and everything else the devs didn't finish

Maybe its your virus riddled PC?, cause i never have issues with Pc games or Pc gaming in general. My tower unit is a 2012 build with a gtx 680 and iv'e never had to touch it..75% of your time fixing "bugs" and "glitches" sounds a bit far fetched and with that username im beginning to suspect you've never owned a gaming PC.

PCGamingNoobs3326d ago

fair enough 75% isnt very accurate, i was being very over the top. as for viruses no.. just no. i actually started gaming as a child on pc first and have always played games on computer as well as consoles.
i actually had very few problems with my pc its was mainly the games i had problems with. for example the last ghost recon, still to this day ive never been able to play it as there is huge game breaking problems that the devs never updated and fixed.

dont get me wrong im absolutely gutted im getting rid of my pc, i will only miss a few titles though ANNO 2070 and starcraft II. but for 2 games its not worth keeping. to be fair in a good few years i will probably build a nice fresh rig.

as for my username it's just the name of my youtube channel where me and a few friends did pc gaming videos. just a generic name

How dare he want to sell his own things, he must be troll because you don't understand why he would do that.

I miss the days of just popping in the disc without any annoying updates and installs, though i'm very satisfied with my ps4, It's funny how our technology is rapidly advancing yet, it seems like it's getting more complicated.

ShottyGibs3326d ago

Strange. I've been playing for the last 3 hours just fine. This has been a brilliant launch.

More interested in money than giving fans what they want. Such a shame

CrimsonWing6929d ago

With the amount of money they generated, I just don’t understand the scrubbing of this. It would’ve been fantastic for fans.

Profchaos29d ago

I really want to know who drove the decision to focus on multiplayer was it Rockstar or take two.

Because when online started taking off many of the studio leads began having falling outs and leading including a founder

Ikr mfs that greedy it's ridiculous

andy8529d ago

This makes me sad. Trevor was one of my favourite characters in gaming

Demetrius28d ago

One of the reason I believe once gta 6 release, most of us thoroughly play it, enjoy the world they crafted then after that no offline support, no dlc at all
