Beberapa situs mendapat laporan terkait dengan game yang sedang menjamur saat ini, tapi tak kunjung tiba rilisan PC-nya. Dan dikabarkan beberapa gamer yang tidak sabar mendownload via Torrent game tersebut, dan Komputer mereka menemui ajalnya
Ini dia tersangkanya :
Mereka, para gamer, menyadari komputernya terkena malware dari game GTA V yang mereka download yang masih simpang siur kabarnya untuk rilisan PC. Memang GTA V adalah game yang menggiurkan dan best of the best dari segi manapun, terhitung Metacritic yg memberikan review 10/10 kepada game tsb. Hingga saat ini tidak diketahui kapan game tsb dirilis di PC
Ini bukti bukti yang terpercaya :
Liputan6.com, New York : Seperti yang diketahui, hingga kini sekuel video game kontroversial Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) masih hanya tersedia secara eksklusif bagi platform konsol PlayStation 3 (PS3) dan Xbox 360. Hal ini tentunya membuat para gamer berbasis personal computer (PC) geram. Bahkan tak sedikit yang sudah tidak sanggup bersabar lagi.
Ketidaksabaran para gamer tersebut baru-baru ini dikabarkan berbuah bencana. Pasalnya, belakangan ramai muncul di dunia maya sebuah file download yang diklaim sebagai versi bootleg (versi resmi yang dibocorkan) dari GTA V. Namun ternyata, file berukuran 18GB tersebut berisi spam dan malware yang sangat berbahaya bagi PC.
Menurut laporan yang dilansir laman WCCF Tech, Kamis (24/10/2013), file GTA V palsu tersebut sudah beredar luas di internet sejak awal minggu ini. Ribuan gamer pengguna PC disinyalir telah menjadi korban, dan pada akhirnya mereka harus membersihkan PC mereka yang telah terjangkit malware.
Pihak Rockstar Games sendiri selaku pembesut GTA V pun telah mengonfirmasi bahwa mereka belum akan merilis video game bertema kriminal andalannya tersebut untuk platform PC.
Dengan adanya kejadian ini, terlihat bagaimana besarnya animo gamer berbasis PC terhadap GTA V. Ini merupakan pertanda sudah selayaknya Rockstar Games sesegara mungkin menghadirkan GTA V di platform PC. (dhi/vin)

Solopos.com, SOLO – Peluncuran game Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) untuk versi desktop di awal tahun 2014 mendatang telah membuat para penggemar tak sabaran. Hal ini langsung dimanfaatkan sejumlah oknum untuk saling berbagi GTA V ‘palsu’ versi desktop yang diklaim dapat merusak PC.
Dilansir IGN.com, Rabu (30/10/2013), pengguna PC atau desktop disarankan untuk bersabar menunggu peluncuran GTA V versi PC resmi dari Rockstar Games awal 2014 mendatang. Pasalnya beberapa waktu belakangan muncul berbagai game GTA V palsu yang disebarkan melalui media sosial.
Jika dirujuk, hampir seluruh link akan menuju ke konten Bit Torrent. Kejanggalan sudah dapat dilihat dari kapasitas memory file tersebut. Dibanding versi Xbox 360 yang hanya memakan kapasitas 7 GB, file ini akan menjejali memory komputer Anda sebesar 18 GB.
Kapasitas ini tentu tak masuk akal jika tidak diisi dengan konten malware dan virus. Konten berupa malware dan virus ini diklaim dapat melumpuhkan sistem operasi desktop.
IBTimes, Selasa (29/10/2013), merilis indikasi malware bertenaga besar ini dapat terlihat dari kecepatan downloadnya yang sangat lamban meskipun dengan koneksi internet berkecepatan tinggi.
Selain itu, ketika sudah berhasil mengunduh, gamer PC akan dihadapkan pada masalah baru yaitu wajib mengisi informasi pribadi untuk mendapatkan registration key dari GTA V versi PC palsu tersebut.
GTA V memang jadi game paling ditunggu. Game ini telah memembuat Rockstar Games untung besar. Dalam waktu 3 hari game ini mampu mendatangkan keuntungan hingga 1 milliar dolar AS. Ini merupakan rekor penjualan game terbesa sepanjang masa.
Tapi jika ditilik dari segi kualitas, game ini sudah tidak bisa diragukan lagi. Game ini menawarkan kualitas grafis jempolan. Gameplay dan berbagai fitur membuat para gamers enggan beranjak memainkan game ini. Jadi untuk pengguna PC, bersabarlah hingga awal 2014 tiba.

Thousands of PC gamers have reportedly downloaded a huge file purporting to be a playable version of GTA 5 - only to find themselves exposed to dozens of viruses.
The latest Grand Theft Auto has not been released for the PC - and developers Rockstar have given no indication of when, or if, it ever will.
But gamers hungry to play the title on their desktop machines are apparently read to jump the gun - with devastating results.
WCCFTech reports that several of its readers (and thousands of other gamers) have already been duped by a Torrent file promising a full version of the modern classic crime simulator.
The 18GB file - which appears near to the top of Google for terms as simple as "GTA 5 PC download" - comes with a realistic-looking installer, but does nothing positive to your machine.
After downloading the "setup.exe" file sets about installing a barrage of malware and spyware which could have untold consequences on your machine.
Enthusiasm for the PC version is undimmed, however - more than 613,000 people have signed a petition calling for Rockstar to release the game.

Life in Los Santos is never predictable – on the streets of Grand Theft Auto V's crime-ridden cityscape, there is always some underworld villain looking to bring you down. This week, however, the criminal activity seeped out of the virtual world into the real one. On Monday, PC news site WCCFTech reported that thousands of eager gamers had been taken in by a fake file distributed on torrent sites, which appeared to be a leaked PC version of GTA V, but was actually a great big bundle of malware.
Site metrics and Seed Ratio reveal that this particular torrent has been downloaded well into the thousands. The setup file is a realistic 18GB and has an actual setup.exe file, one that works. Basically a malicious replica of the original setup file, this one doesnt give out any hint of malicious activity.
As CNET later reported:
The file looks legit, appearing near the top of Google search results, and nearly 7,000 users connected; however, appearing as a setup.exe file, the first clue that something could be awry is the file size 18.3GB, compared to 7.7GB for the Xbox 360 version.
Of course, what should have alerted eager GTA fans was the fact that Rockstar is yet to even announce a PC version of the hit console title. Rumours suggest that a conversion could arrive in spring 2014, and there is clearly demand – an online survey requesting a PC version now has more than 600,000 signatures. If life in GTA has taught us anything it's that, where there is demand, there is criminal exploitation.
Meanwhile, GTA Online is still undergoing tweaks as Rockstar continues to balance the twitchy economy. Late last week a new patch updated various issues with the troubled multiplayer mode, but also halved the amount gamers could make from repeat missions. According to GameSpot, the publisher explained he decision thus: "We understand players do like to enjoy a mission multiple times, so rather than remove the possibility of doing so, we've allowed replays of these missions at a reduced payout. Many players can get very good at a mission and beat it much faster in consecutive tries, so we've adjusted these payouts to match that case."
The problem Rockstar has is the need to gently lead gamers away from turning the mode into a grind-fest, without making it look like a way to nudge them toward micro transactions. But responses have been… mixed. Beneath the announcement on the GTA support site LocoWithGun writes: "To be honest missions are rather worthless now. Maybe I'll do the occasional Base Invaders that comes my way but that's about it. There was already a huge trouble getting anyone to join your mission ... newbies are never going to get anyone to play with them now."
On the plus side, it seems the promised "stimulus package" will arrive this week, giving GTA Online veterans a major free cash boost to the tune of $500,000. Rockstar is also preparing to launch new features, which according to its Newswire site includes a DLC package named Beach Bum pack (lots of new beach ware for characters, plus four new beach vehicles) and a content creator that allows players more breadth to design and run their own personalised death match and race events. More exciting, though, will be the launch of more in-depth Heist missions, requiring tactical co-op play. Players getting tired of pummelling through street jobs and grinding high-paying errands from Gerald will be pleased to try out something a little more complex.
But PC owners will have to wait, or risk an unwanted mission to rid their hard drive of malware.
