Grand Theft Auto 4 PC help
Written by Asaki Videl
The much awaited game is finally on the PC! But this time… it doesn’t just steal cars! It steals your money’s worth! Yes GTA 4 is out and filled with more bugs & crashes than ever before! It was only a day after its release when players started bombarding the internet with a set of different complaints. If you think I’m talking about a couple of crashes then you’re dead wrong. Everyone was itching to get their paws on the much awaited PC version of GTA4, only to be surprised by more than just a couple of crashes. Enclosed is a list of the game’s current bugs and corresponding fixes (And damn I dont think that’s all of it.) It was so bad that Steam actually considered giving players a refund (LOL). I still think the game is worth waiting for (Cough*). This deformed cookie just needs a couple of days more to bake (OH PLEASE LET IT BE DAYS).

GTA IV is a pretty difficult game to run, it needs a good quad core and a matching video card.
