How does a game like GTA 5 get delayed 3 times on PC and yet still needs day one patch?

Also easy fatalities is good idea, i don't want to memorize the imputs for 30 diferent characters but charging for them is just... insulting, i don't care that you can still unlock them on the crypt microtransactions have no place in a retail 60$ game.

so far it seems because they wanted to get it right. No complaints once I was in game.

So not too long ago I posted how I wanted a Sega Saturn controller for my PS2. Now I think I have finally solved that dilemma.

I've been thinking about it for a few days now, and I have come to the conclusion Boneslapdeeznutz is right:

Handhelds > Consoles > PC

Handheld games especially of the DS/3DS and PSP/Vita era offer the intricate gameplay I'm looking for, and the ability to enjoy them wherever I want. Consoles have nicer graphics than handhelds and are more immediate to play than PC, but I can't play them on the go. PC offers the nicest graphics but requires more setup work on the front-end to enjoy than console or handhelds (but is portable from a laptop perspective). So as an adult with limited free time handhelds offer the best overall convenience and fun factor for me. Not that I'm dissing consoles or PC, I still play those too, but Bone's opinion works for me so I'm giving him props on that soothsaying.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

I generally agree with this for the reason stated in your post. I have just found that handhelds are drastically more convenient for me and that the experience playing them is no less satisfying than playing games on a console.

I don't think I prefer any experience over another. I can understand people who don't like playing games on PCs but I've been playing games on computers my entire life so sitting at a desk to play games is as naturally to me as sitting on a couch. I love handheld gaming but it fills its own niche and doesn't replaces games on a bigger screen. All three have their uses for me. All three are still video games.

I only play handheld games emulated on windows95, emulated in dosbox, emulated in dolphin, emulated in android, emulated on windows 7, emulated in linux. It is the only way to play.
