I have a question.  Why would they do that?  That doesn't seem like something that would make a lot of sense.

Conspiracy theory: they downgraded the PC version to make the console versions look better and sell more.

Less insane theory: they couldn't get the high end version to run smoothly and bug free on PC, so they released it in a stable, downgraded version (bad optimization added by accident).

Yeah, I read the conspiracy theories on the Pdox website.  Didn't make a lick of sense.  If they wanted people to buy the console versions they would have just not released it on PC.  I wondering if the "high end version" was just a build for E3, and they never intended to release that.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Man, that was bad.

I see rumours Rockstar actually may release "Red Dead Redemption" for Windows.
I'd buy that, play, swear and let it rot in my Steam library along with the GTAs.
