I agree on everything you said except for The Witcher 3.

I'll wait a couple of months to get it because, given what happened with the first two games, I'm not sure how playable will the game be at launch, even with the delays.

Well given that GTA V is massive in file size, espeically with all the disks, they made the promise that with these delays their game will be "polished" for PC gamers from "day 1" and I expect we'll no doubt have a 15gb patch and unplayable online/server issues with singleplayer bugs, I honestly can't see Witcher 3 being as bad as what we know will happen with GTA V, it's had problems on 4 platforms so far upon release and even during it's time on all 4, it'll have the same issues on PC.

I mean if Witcher 3 suffers issues it will be a quality issue, GTA V already has quality bug/performance issues and quantity when you combine 4 platforms with a soon to be 5th one.

That said it's probably good to wait a while and see how W3 performs anyway, I've still yet to see this fabled "ultra" settings the devs are avoiding in terms of the PC version talk.

Yep, in this day and age, it's always a good idea to wait at least a couple of weeks before getting a game on PC, unless it is a PC only game. But I won't complain, that will give me time to replay The Witcher 1 & 2 in order to import my savefiles.

As for the Ultra settings, they've already said that a GTX 980 should be able to handle it (at 1080p, I assume) and, with a few tweaks and lowering some settings to high, the 970 and both 290 will handle it too.
