GTA IV on PC is a joke



The commonly criticized GTA 4 port is an absolute mess. Today I try to cover the more specific & lesser-known reasons as to why it’s filth. And then I aim to guide viewers into fixing the lil turd.

    The long-awaited swear count has arrived! 💥
    – Shit was used 6 times. 4 of them happening before the 20 second mark!
    – Fuck was used a staggering 8 times.
    – And finally, bitch was used a measly 2 times. How boring.
    Thank you for tuning into the swear count! See you guys next time

  • @MoreAdamCouser July 5, 2024

    why are we attacking a 16 year old game hahahaha

  • @SmittySZN July 5, 2024

    Bro the game is almost 20 years old😂

  • @PolloIsLoco1771 July 5, 2024

    I’m playing on my laptop and it performed nice and the graphics look pretty good without mods

  • @Amerika_hoya July 5, 2024

    Use mods or make graphics high

  • @itizwhatitiz9560 July 5, 2024

    oh the 3kliksphilip theme is a instant like

  • @The-Red-Menace July 5, 2024

    If the track wasn’t released until 2016, then they took it down because they weren’t allowed to use it genius

  • @The-Red-Menace July 5, 2024

    Stop crying and why don’t you PS3 and Xbox aren’t bad and PC is 10 times better

  • its a joke to people who never dealt with it not even once since 2008. automatically not knowing the essentials fixes to get in order to make it run

  • @nastekly8914 July 5, 2024

    I'd rather eat bleach to open gta Iv, than using rockstar Launcher for it

  • @atultripathi9166 July 5, 2024

    Say the f word one more time

  • @Leafsfanforever July 5, 2024

    The helicopter bug in the final mission is the reason why I’m never re playing this game

  • @inse0380 July 5, 2024

    I came here because I got screwed over by that helicopter glitch on the final mission ON PC, fixed bug my ass lol

  • @bubbap89 July 5, 2024

    Hylics ost intro, opinion validated

  • @AliAbbas-bu5or July 5, 2024

    at this point, you can just crack it. Rockstar doesn't even care. I have played both and cracked version is literally flawless. It works perfectly, I haven't had any problems with an absolutely average laptop. (Ryzen 5 5500u, 8 GB ram, AMD graphics)

  • @Loki_Trickster July 5, 2024

    Yeah… People forgot that this was a Xbox360 title, and that they were playing favorites at times for the better ports. Rockstar used Xbox exclusive DirectX crap for the XBOX360 version. But because how they were implemented on xbox that didn't cross over to the PC port. PC uses a version of lighting copied from the PS port. And the Radiostation disappearing you can blame on copyright law not extending into perpetuity on video games. Surprise you bought the license for the game and not a license to the music. No company is going to renew the license on a game that is a decade old with a small base of players that still play it enough to notice.

  • GTA-SA is KING!

  • yes xbox 360 is best and pc is dogsh!t

  • @RainyWolf7 July 5, 2024

    At least people like jokes

  • @Sbenbobb9 July 5, 2024

    Bro, have you heard of mods and calming down?.. Cause gtaIV on my pc is amazing and all I did was fix issues. Took 20 minutes and I wasted a lot less time than complaining in a video…

  • @meksiiik July 5, 2024

    2kliksphilip theme

  • @Abhishek_0719 July 5, 2024

    Bro the story is great i love the mechanics specially the car one only rockstar fucked this masterpiece rockstar should "remake" the game

  • @javierdozal9043 July 5, 2024

    Do I need to make a Microsoft account because when I downgraded it, it won’t let me play episodes without making a Microsoft account

  • @Maxmulham July 5, 2024

    If the ps3 version is shit and so is xbox, then what's the good one.

  • @stevens1041 July 5, 2024

    Never understood why Rockstar abused PC so badly with GTA IV, from the very first day of PC release. You think its bad today, I remember the entire internet shitting itself about how broken the game was when it first dropped for PC users. It became a meme right away of terrible money-grabbing PC ports. Here we are many years later, with PC platform more popular than before. Will Rockstar get it together before the next GTA release? Doubt it.

  • @SomeAustrianGuy_ July 5, 2024

    Trying to run GTA IV on PC and getting it past Rockstars awful launcher, aswell as that even worse Games for Windows system is an experience I wouldnt even wish upon my worst enemy

    Seriously, multibillion dollar company with the mindset "the modders will fix it"

    What a joke. Way to treat the games that made your damn career, Rockstar

  • @ssaloals July 5, 2024

    bro is turn to the 3kliksphilip

  • @TheMadHouse1904 July 5, 2024

    Tlad done 100% gta 4 and tbogt….cant be bothered to crash again and again

  • @verynoiceroxx542 July 5, 2024

    Bro’s mom was in the other room lowering his voice when he says a no no word while talking about the most poorly optimized game besides saints row 2
