Now Mac users also want GTA 5

Mac now wants GTA 5

After Xbox One, PS4 and PC, Mac users have now started demanding Grand Theft Auto 5.

Their previous edition Grand Theft Auto 4, was not made available for Mac OS. But, Grand Theft Auto 3, which launched in 2001, was available for Mac as well as other Apple devices such as the iPhone, iPad and iPad Mini. 2004’s Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is also available for the same devices.

Reports in MacWorld had hinted that there won't be any Mac edition for GTA 5, due to capacity issues. In their June edition, they were also of the view that Mac users weren't that much into gaming. “It doesn’t seem fair, but developers go where the money is, and the average Mac user is less into gaming, and hardcore gaming in particular, than the average PC user."

Amongst desktop and laptop users Mac is amongst the top five most used operating systems. The Apple product has an estimated 7.38 percent of the market share (in desktop and laptops).

GTA 5 for PC in November?

Grand Theft Auto 5 is yet to release on PC, Play Station 4 and Xbox One, and is slated to hit stores in November. Rockstar Games' most popular creation was initially released in September 2013, just for Play Station 3 and Xbox 360. And now after witnessing huge popularity amongst fans, the franchise will be eyeing the other platforms.

A record-breaking game

Since its September 2013 release, GTA 5 has gone on to become the fastest-selling entertainment product of all time. The game made over £1 billion in just three days. It broke seven Guinness World Records on 8 October 2013: best-selling video game in 24 hours, best-selling action-adventure video game in 24 hours, highest grossing video game in 24 hours, fastest entertainment property to gross $1 billion, fastest video game to gross US $1 billion, highest revenue generated by an entertainment product in 24 hours, and most viewed trailer for an action-adventure video game.
