    how are so many of you forgetting that Rockstar titles are always launched first as console exclusives? My guess is they’re just trying to raise as much money as possible. it will get a PC launch later

      Yup, it’s always the same model, pretty sure with the precise (and likely not incorrect) assumption that at least some amount of people will buy it twice at full price if they do that.
