I'm one of the last 10 people alive to have not played GTA5 single player yet, and I'm getting close to playing it finally! I got the free Epic Store version on PC, and I bought the $10 Enhanced PS5 version when that came out. Typically, I default to PC, but this is one a little trickier. I played the first 30 mins or so on both platforms. The Enhanced edition looks and runs great on PS5 in performance mode, and had a couple nice features like native HDR, and the PC version looks good also, but even with the NaturalVision mod installed, it didn't look all that much better in the opening sections of the game? I've got plenty of hardware to run it.

Both versions suffer from stuttering cutscenes, sadly, and evidently there is no fix for that, even on PC. Which to play?

 

[Guilty_AI]

both suck

 

[Arsic]

PS5 imo. It looked better than pc version maxed out.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

I'm about to do the same thing. It's worth it to me for gun mods, better physics, gun sounds, muzzle flashes, natural vision evolved (use monster killer00k preset for better performance). And I wanna do the LSPD mod... but that's me

Not modded.

Natural Vision is stunning if you were to play the game.

Access to gameplay enhancement mods too make PC the best choice.

The PC version is the best version, but if you don't feel like messing with mods, just do the PS5 version. Not really a big deal either way.

Isn’t the base os5 going to have Ray tracing and pc still doesn’t it?

I didn’t want to mod so ps4 looked great compared to pc

You ever had issues with NVE and other mods from nexus or gta5mods?

Yeah, I think one could make a fair argument that PS5's lighting is a bit better, but everything else is substantially better on PC.

There's a fair number of comparison videos on YT if one was inclined to check em' out.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

I avoid EGS as much as possible.

 

[rodrigolfp]

PC of course.

Controls + input lag, IQ, ultrawide, mods... graphics only missing RT reflections but those are present only at 30slidespersecond on consoles so is the same as nothing....

Easily could be true depending on the users PC. Obviously a high end PC would look and play better, but there really isn't much difference in a mid PC and the PS5 version.

 

[Grildon Tundy]

I go PC in nearly every case, and will do so until consoles technically outperform my PC. If you prefer the Dualshock 5 as your input, you can usually use it on PC with some fiddlin'.

Only times I play on PS5 when both it and PC are options is:
1) I'm going to play with my friends where the voice chatting is a simpler process on PS5 than trying to set up a crossplatform chat with them
2) The local pawn shop has a better deal on a used PS5 game than I can find online for PC

 

[Kerotan]

I'll be replaying on ps5.

I think the ps5 version has some sort of crappy tlray tracing implemented that PC version didn't get.

But in general. If you have the hardware. The PC version is usually the way to go.

 

[King Dazzar]

I've done and loved both, but as shocking as it for PC lovers, I preferred the PS5 version. It got updated with proper HDR, and has excellent use of dualsense features: haptics (makes vehicles feel better and things like rain can be felt) plus stuff like police chatter comes through the controller speaker. I was really impressed.

 

[GustavoLT]

PC vanilla maxed out! 100+fps, 4k!

 

[amigastar]

PC because i can switch controls on the fly.

And on PC we can use racing wheels.

And why would you change that? That’s a good thing.

 

[SliChillax]

PS5 has hdr and ray tracing shadows and reflections but worse draw distance and lower fps. I have a 4090 and thought the game looked way better on my Oled due to hdr and ray tracing but pc has higher fps.

 

[R6Rider]

PS5 for the DualSense features.

Depends if you prefer to aim with controller or mouse, also if you want trophies or not.

 

[rodrigolfp]

You just sold the PC version even more.

[Buggy Loop]

Always PC

I don't think I want to replay it any time soon but the mods recently are something that is making it tempting

NVE :

I can't believe the anisotropic filtering on consoles. When they drive at 2:15. I keep seeing console games with settings I haven't seen since nearly 2 decades. I was on anisotropic filtering 16x since probably Serious Sam 2001. The hell is that. Performance seems atrocious too.

 

[Chuck Berry]

This is my second favorite recent hot take after the anything Bioshock sucks one

makes it real easy to spot the retards

breaking news, i'm far from the first person to dislike modern Rockstar Games. They're basically glorified cutscenes with awful game design.

I don't doubt there is none there. Trilinear...

Good advice, but I play both on the same TV with controllers haha

The do pc if you want to install mods later.

Those trailers are really well edited. Modders have come a long way…

 

[Perrott]

The game is straight up broken on PC, especially the options and graphics menu. Horrible experience.

PS5, even if the LODs aren't quite as detailed as PC's ultra setting, at least has raytracing, better anti-aliasing (TAA), raytraced reflections and shadows, DualSense features and quicker loading thanks to the SSD.

 

[Hudo]

PC, obviously.

 

[Puscifer]

Feel like the only reason we didn't get it is because they know it would have to be a free update on PC vs forcing the double dip on consoles

 

[Zathalus]

PC is your PC is more powerful then the PS5 and you are willing to mod. Otherwise the PS5 version works well.

 

[Pelta88]

Console. None of the PC enhancements outweigh the level of cheating / hacks we saw in GTAV.

 

[mrMUR_96]

The PS5 version has ray tracing that was never added to the PC version

 

[angelgs90]

I'm currently playing it on Steam Deck.

Very high settings, downsampling from higher resolution, and locked 40fps.

Well if that's a problem it has to be self inflicted seeing he specified single player.

Thanks to rockstar being assholes and not updating their games PS5 is better in many aspects and I will replay it on PS5 (if I ever feel urge to do so).

 

[MonkeyClaw36]

You tried running it on a Pentium 90 or something? This is top tier BS.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Tried the Series X version a long while back and it was crap due to the input lag. PS5 will almost certainly have the same controls and feel the same. Go with PC, it'll play a lot better and can be modded.
