I'm not sure what the UK release is, but GTA IV for the PC on Steam comes out December 2, which is tomorrow. I prepurchased it on Steam so hopefully I'll get it ASAP.

I may also want to recommend Steam for retrieving the game, because of this.

I'm not entirely sure, but some of the comments mentioned getting the game through Steam would be best.


I will post pictures of in game screens when it's released.

is there any1 who play this game on a rig that has only 2gb of ram? is it unplayable? just want to know coz gta 4 would be the only thing on my com that actually uses more than 2gb of ram. dont want to upgrade ram if my com can cope with only 2gb.

it does work with 2Gb RAM, but even with 4Gb install in my rig, it is using around 90% of it. I would recommend having 4Gb.

yeah i reccomend you throw in as much ram as you can,GTA uses alot of memory because the maps are HUGE.

it plays fine with 4gb of ram though.

doesn't matter, it will run fine on both but you may as well put it on vista so the game can use the extra 500-odd Mb of ram

I found this on another Forum;

For you SLI people, turn off SLI and make your second card physX, it helps boost performance until SLI is fixed, it at least went playable for me (around 60 fps I think)
