GTA V For PC To Be Sold As A 7-Disc Set?
In the “you must be joking” story of the day, it’s being stated that he physical copy of GTA V (as in the one you’d buy at the local electronics store to bring home) for PC will be put into a staggering 7-disc box set.
That’s a lot, but in some ways it makes sense. If you need to recall, here are the specifications that Rockstar stated you need to play GTA V on your PC.
Minimum specifications:
•OS: Windows 8.1 64 Bit, Windows 8 64 Bit, Windows 7 64 Bit Service Pack 1, Windows Vista 64 Bit Service Pack 2* (*NVIDIA video card recommended if running Vista OS)

Recommended specifications:
•OS: Windows 8.1 64 Bit, Windows 8 64 Bit, Windows 7 64 Bit Service Pack 1

So there you go, that would explain why it would be on 7 Discs, among other things of course. However, as some eagle-eyed fans have noted, there are some signs that point to these pictures (both above and below) NOT being for the US version of the game, mainly in that there are certain ESRB stickers that are missing. So, this may not be the case (pun intended) for some regions.
GTA V for PC will arrive April 14th.
