Hello,

I'm returning to the PC world after long years with Mac.

I have a quick question about compatibility: GTA IV is on sale on Steam, and I want to play it on my Windows 11... is it compatible or is it complicated?

Thank you in advance, have a good evening!

Pierre

    Hello

    Coming from Mac, the compatibility for the past year or two has been a bit special for sure. No issues yet?

    Some people love certain Steam games.

    The marketing system is a bit special. Some say "just buy the game, it's not that expensive," but when there's a problem (so they play without buying?), there are scheduled promotions and news every so often like this:

    With the end of support for the "Games for Windows" platform, Rockstar Games was forced to remove GTA IV from sale on Steam in January. The studio promised to quickly...

    Return of GTA without multiplayer...

    Anyway, it's a little world that seems important to know well before risking to give an opinion too quickly from the outside.

    Hello,

    indeed, when it comes to Mac compatibility, it's complicated. For "basic" tasks, you need to install a virtual machine with Windows...

    That's why I bought a PC recently. And mainly, I was tired of paying a fortune for setups that aren't great, even though the OS remains smooth and very enjoyable.

    Since I don't have a CD/DVD drive; I was thinking about Steam, but what are the other alternatives?

    For the game GTA 4, is it not too old for a more recent installation system?
