Grand Theft Auto V on PC petition reaches 440,000 signatures

A day after the launch of Grand Theft Auto V for Xbox 360 and PS3, a petition to bring the blockbuster to PC has hit 440,000 signatures.
The amount of people adding their names to the petition has significantly increased since the game launched yesterday. It had hit 200,000 in July, and was up to 350,000 just before launch. Now the petition is at around 442,000 signatures at the time of writing.

It needs 58,000 more to hit a target of 500,000 signatures.

Signatories add their name to an open request to Rockstar Games to consider bringing GTA V to PC.

"To:
Rockstar Games
Please release GTA V on PC. GTA games have been a large part of so many people's lives and it's a big shame not seeing the newest iteration of the game being released on the most powerful platform. Things like modifications have always been a HUGE part of PC gaming and modded GTA is some of the most insanely fun times you can have.

I hope you consider the release of GTA V on PC as it'll make many people very happy!
Sincerely,
[Your name]"

Yeah they've got at least a years worth of DLC to shovel out. Allowing the modding community to have it on day one would be suicide for wanting to squeeze more money out of the game.

I signed it but it's common knowledge that Rockstar releases GTA for the PC almost exactly 1 year after crappy consoles.

I signed...and then I was hit with 5 requests from the DNC to sign other crap, and not a single GOP initiative. Seems like a very balanced site.
