So $20 right?
Considering this will release as an 18 month old game, I expect to pay 18 month old game prices for it. Of course they probably will expect us to pay $60 for it. Personally at this point since they made me wait so very long for this game, which I had planned to pre-order, I've decided that Rockstar can now wait for my money until it goes on sale and I can get it for a price that a game that came out in 2013 is worth. Yes, I know it won't matter to them if one guy does this, but I do hope more people feel this way and do the same.

I'll pay 60€ because it will have lots of upgrades both graphical and performance upgrades, a bunch of new features and lots of new content that "2013" version didn't have. It's worth every cent even without the upgrades, there are no games like this.

Also major games don't cost 1/3rd of their price after a year... it will be atleast 3 years before it drops that low even on ps3/xbox360.

the price will be 59.99 no matter what happens ;)

Look at this list of improvements :- http://gta.wikia.com/Grand_Theft_Auto_V#Next-Gen_.26_PC_Versions. I think it is worth it for 60$ (if money is not the issue).

This happened with GTA IV - I don't expect a price drop and you shouldn't either. The game has a full single-player campaign, a f*ckton of multiplayer content, and soon to be community made mods.

Just because it comes out later doesn't mean it should be priced less. It's a AAA game and probably one of the best games in recent years.

will pay whatever it costs for GTA V. By March 24th I will be playing an amazing game with superior resolution while OP will be crying about his butt hurt on an online discussion board where the other children can gather and share each others tears

Lost all interest in this game a long time ago. So I'll wait until the inevitable GOTY edition costs $10. Then I maybe pick it up. No promises.
Surely not paying the $70 they'll likely expect me to pay.

Good luck with that. I bet their DRM servers go down and if you manage to get past this you'll be lucky if it works. No need to remind you of the usual quality a Rockstar port has, right?
It took them 6 months to get Bully to work on systems with 4 GB RAM for example.

The base game (so to say) has been out 18 months. It has since been updated with higher textures, a whole new first person mode, tons of DLC that is free, increased vegetation, new cars, new clothing options, etc. This was a big leap when comparing the original to the next gen, so I'd be basing prices of off the Next gen release. It's not going lower than 45 dollars, I'll glady pay for the PC version with EVEN MORE CONTENT THAN THE NEXT GEN VERSION.

Well and people pirate these games because of delays like this. Rockstart does not give a ♥♥♥♥ about us, the pc community, so why should we give them money for treating us that way? Don't get me wrong, i will not pirate it, i will get it the legit way (probably wait for a sale though, i will not pay the full price for a game that gets delayed that much) but i can understand why many people are not going to pay for it at all. Every other company is able to release a PC version of their game right of the bat (broken or not does not matter at the moment) so why is rockstar not able to do that?

I'm not saying who's fault it is, but the simple possibility that potential customers can just suddenly turn around and get the product for free because something doesn't suit them is already a reason enough to release it on PC last.

Are you telling me you wanted a broken game? If it game out January 27th, EVERYONE would ♥♥♥♥♥ and complain it's not complete, it's laggy, servers are constantly down, game crashes, the list goes on and on. When a company decides to delay their game, EVERYONE complains that it gets delayed.

You can't please people anymore.

You know consoles can pirate games as well right? I get what you are saying but still...that is not the reason why rockstar is delaying this game every time for the PC, i bet they are just trying to get more money out of their console versions of the game (more money and ♥♥♥♥). I am not even mad, it is business after all.

Where did i say that? I even said i am going to buy it and stuff like that. If it really would be THAT broken they would need MORE time to fix all of that, they had enough time already, seriously.

You can pirate it on consoles yes, you know the percentages of people that pirate games on consoles? It's around 2 percent. Because it's difficult for most people and whatnot.

On PC that's almost 4-5 percent. So now do the math on how much they lose

Edit: I messed up my numbers, edited.

On PC that percentage goes into several 10s of percents.. So now do the math.

Agreed. Compared to PC, practically nobody pirates on console. About 0.5% actually do - besides, the fair amount of console players are in their teens and are too lazy to actually figure out how to do it.
