Rockstar: No “current plans” for PC version of Red Dead Redemption

Console gamers occasionally had to saddle up on invisible horses, but at least they got to see the rest of Red Dead Redemption.
PC gamers, though, not so much.
“As of now, there are no current plans to bring Red Dead Redemption to the PC platform. If that should change, we will let you know,” a Rockstar rep replied when asked about a PC version in the comments section of its Rockstar News Wire.
That’s not to say, however, that Red Dead’s just regular old dead on the PC. Rockstar’s no stranger to delayed PC ports, with numerous Grand Theft Auto titles popping up on PCs months after launching on consoles.
For now, though, taming the wild west and hunting its wildlife to near-extinction are console-exclusive past-times. Well, unless you happen to have a copy of Oregon Trail lying around, anyway.

Wonder if any SP DLC is planned, like the episodes for GTA4?

Same old game from Rockstar, they’ll announce the port eventually.
@1: What could possibly be bad about a PC Port? Move along, troll.

The release of the game on PC is inevitable…
The thing about consoles is that they only offer a baseline experience, on the PC the game is the best it can be.
Hence, why most of us prefer the PC games…

A lot PC ports didn’t get vibration support which IMHO is an important element of certain genres (or no controller support at all). So something can be missing.

I agree. I used to really like playing games with keyboard/mouse but these days I’m generally happiest using the Xbox 360 pad to play PC games. Which is why it’s really annoying when games like Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2 don’t bother to support it.

Didn’t rockstar say that gta 4 wasn’t in the pipeline as well?

Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2 being played on a pad? Madness.
I’ll take the precision of a mouse & keyboard thank you very much.

@idiot.. erm loki: I never downloaded a game. I buy all my console and PC games. I’m a lucky man to be able to enjoy both worlds AND I’m happy that I’m not such a ignorant little kid like you are.

Well its not really suprising since Rockstar: San Diego made the game and as with Midnight Club: LA they didn’t release a PC port back then either.

The PC port for GTA4 is alright now, after 6 or so pretty heavy patches. Looks unbelievable to be honest but still chugs a little.
But if you all cast your minds back Rockstar said the exact same thing about GTA. They will say it about the next game too. They know if people think there isn’t a PC version they’ll just go right a head and buy the 360/PS3 version and then buy the PC version when that comes out next year.
