GameSpy: Grand Theft Auto IV PC Preview

GameSpy writes: "Rockstar likes to frame its eventual PC ports of Grand Theft Auto as its way of acknowledging the series' PC roots. Whether or not this is true, PC games no doubt appreciate that the fact that the games ultimately emerge on the platform in better form, typically with new feature scraps added, and equipped to enjoy the benefit of the mouse and keyboard.

Rockstar gave press attendees a first look at Grand Theft Auto IV's PC port earlier this evening at the Games Convention in Leipzig. The popular "3 Leaf Clover" mission was used to showcase the port, played live with an Xbox 360 controller (though our host assured us that mouse and keyboard support will indeed be included)."

Spiffy:
+Video features could make for some cool community interaction

Iffy:
-Plenty of port-related unknowns, like how the multiplayer will survive the jump to the PC
