Mostly pointless to have it on steam when it launches via rockstar's client anyway. You are just adding another layer of drm.

Is it true multiplayer is full of cheaters?

I tried doing that with the pad too as I feel much better driving with it on GTA 4, shooting with the mouse is ace though. problem is finding the mouse quickly in the heat of battle when you bail out the car

GTA 5 on Xbox one S or the PC (MSI twin fozer 770 gtx) I know the graphics are always better on PC but which would you choose?

PC for mouse aiming. Game plays beautifully on mouse/keyboard IMO. A 770 won't max it out though.

I tend to play with the keyboard and mouse for everything but then pick up the controller to drive as that always feels better to me!
Feels natural to do that, switching while getting in and out the car!

Well you can have both plugged in and play with either at any time so I doubt they split players based on what they use but I could be wrong. It definitely doesn't split players in races as you can see what people use

This is still too expensive. But I suppose people keep buying it

I played and finished the main mission on 360 - still tempted to get this for the upgraded graphics ... worth it?

Yes, I had it on PS3 and bought the Steam version for my PC a couple of days ago, running very high settings at 1080p with between 60-80FPS and it's like a completely different game (running an i5 4690k with GTX970 and 16GB RAM)
Totally agree, in the 2hrs I've been using K&M, it seems like driving, shooting & running are much better. I assume that you disable the auto aim assist in the menu? Also I thought controller and K&M players were separated in multiplayer? or is that just when you disable aim assist?

It's quite good actually. In races it shows you whether people are using mouse/keyboard or controller and its about 50/50 split. Obviously you get slightly better accuracy with controller but you can easily compete with m/k. Also for everything else m/k wins hands down

Wouldn't get this without steam. Great game, but rockstars DRM is just awful. For an extra £3, I would get it on steam.

Steam does this in the background automatically. I always prefer Steam deals. Recently had to download GTAV for a friend who bought a new PC and it was such a pain without Steam. R*'s website is super broken, had to download social club via a 3rd party website, login to that crap, get it to update itself then finally got it to download GTAV. With Steam, you don't have to mess around with social club.

Depends on whether or not Steam keeps the game files (and launcher) updated. When I launch a game I want the game to launch. I don't want it to go off checking for and downloading updates. I want that done already (when I wasn't gaming).
I don't know for sure but I would assume that Steam does this?
Opening post
No intro needed - cheapest I can see around
Steam - 19.99
Cdkeys - 22.99
