Youtube had better be ready.
The long-awaited PC version of 'Grand Theft Auto V' is finally about to drop, and the PC version that so many fans have sworn by for years does have its pros. Those pros include 4K support as well as other powerful visual upgrades, but Rockstar is very high on the PC exclusive Rockstar Editor, which lets players edit gameplay clips and upload them to Youtube or to Rockstar's Social Club.
Lest that convenience not sound exciting, the Rockstar Editor does more than offer a robust editing package. It lets players have access to the game's massive soundtrack, but even better is director mode, which lets players really make movies using the in-game assets, including some crazy physics.
There's still time to score the PC version's preorder bonuses, which are detailed here. With so many players preloading, fans should get ready for a crazy launch.
