I'm old enough to remember exactly this discussion for GTA 3, 4, 5 and now 6.

Yeah, they never announce it for PC early so they're not cannibalize console sales. They do this eeeeeevery time. Every single fucking time.

It'll be out on PC in due time.

    Same discussion as it was with RDR2...

    Same discussion as it was with RDR1.

    Then 13 years passed.

    RDR1 was a special case, San Diego didn't port their previous few games either which is why we don't have Midnight Club LA on PC for example.

    GTA is too big. It's guaranteed extra sales for a game they already have. Same with RDR2, it was heaps more popular than the first (which itself was more popular than expected I guess) so leaving it console exclusive was never really on the table.
