i love the way steam do that. block you from altering single player content aswell. i was bored and felt like blowing things up and fired up cheat engine to give my unlimited ammo and its blocked. not all games but the one i was in the mood for. and its annoying.
That was actually not the case with SA. SA had three version; v1, v2 and v3. The v1 version was the only one that was mod-able and Steam just gave you the most up-to-date version. That's what gaming platforms do.
I bought mine on disc and got the v2, I was never able to mod it unless I downloaded a torrent while already owning the game. Ended up just playing the vanilla game and honestly it was already so good that I never even missed the mods
Gotta admit that the IcEnhancer thing on GTA IV was pretty epic but I never got that to work either. Tried to install it ounce and it just removed my savegame without even enabling the mod. Been scared to retry it since...
Gta IV was indeed bad port, if Gta V is bad port for pc, I buy an PS 4 and the Gta V version for it![]()
What Rockstar game has ever been bug free? or any other game for that matter.The game will be epic on PC provided it's bug free.

Without mods I expect it to be boring after a few hours, all hope rests on the shoulders of the mod community, at least imo.
I don't remember what GTA IV was like on PC, I didn't have it on PC but I'm sure it needed big booty specs? Sort of like poorly optimised/ported. I think?
But the console version is completely playable, I would just hate them to bring such a good game to PC and the guy with the two grand PC can't play it, and then it crashes, freezes and all that.
I find that GTA IV hates AMD stuff. My old gts 450+ i3 550 ran the game fine (~60fps) on med-high but my 7870 and 8320 can struggle on high-ultra.
