Intel claims "somebody paid a lot of money" to keep GTA5 off PC

There’s little doubt that Grand Theft Auto 5 will eventually arrive on PC, like most Rockstar games, but it hasn’t stopped one Intel executive from floating a conspiracy theory to explain the lack of a simultaneous PC release.

Somebody paid a lot of money to make sure that title was exclusive,” marketing director for Intel notebooks Chris Silva told PC Gamer.

Predictably, Silva doesn’t back up the claim with any facts. If either Microsoft or Sony was to pay Rockstar a lot of money, it would be to keep the game off the rival console, and not off PC.
