Someone knows why GTA V was postponed (to the pc)?

[Sybrid]

Well let's leave aside all the pirating bullshit.
Do you remember when Assassin's Creed II was postponed to the PC when it was released to the consoles? how long was it? 3-4 months after the console release?
Well I think Rockstar are doing the same.
I think (very positively BTW) that Rockstar are just taking their time and testing the console version before releasing to the PC,that way they will have no need of updating and fixing and patching every couple of days.

What do you think? I am really curious about this stuff...Sure there are a lot of articles that explain why but every article is different and gives a different reason...Most of them are rumors.
Well...Give your opinion here!

Honestly, you said leave the pirating aside, but I do think that's the main reason they release it later on PC? Like why would someone bother buying a game on console when they could just download it AND it has better graphics? Prototype 2 did the same, I ended up buying it on my PS3 instead of waiting X months.

Do you think console players can't hack their games? My older brother did that and he is still playing for free (multiplayer included for every game).

I'm not saying there isn't piracy on consoles, but it's way less than on PC

You are right about that.
I am pirating a lot of games. why? cause i can't afford them.
But after I saw GTA V? dude...I took 60 bucks from my savings just to buy this game and most of the people did that as well.
If Rockstar won't make a PC version,they will lose a lot of money and PC gamers around the world will hate them for that.
