Title: GTA IV on PC?
Post by: OptimoPeach on April 05, 2009, 03:53:17 PM: How does it run? I played it on 360 over the weekend and thought it was alright despite the shitstain that is the TERRIBAD driving physics. I would prefer to just pirate it if possible, and I would honestly rather play it on PC anyway, so what's the word?

My computer is nothing special: 3GB of ram, GeForce 8600.

Which is why you play it with this when playing on the PC:

I hear you have to have a behemoth machine to run it with a decent framerate.

I hear it runs better than Crysis on an average machine. Especially after the patch.
