The website discussed the torrent's high SEO ranking and its false verification from Rockstar Games.

While Hewlett-Packard released a short message regarding the PC release date of Grand Theft Auto 5, pointing to an end-of-month release for the version, the game is expected to be released at the beginning of next year.
