True Crime: Streets of LA - a successful composition of substandard elements if you believe the things I say - could be on its way to the PC in March 2004, according to a suspicious listing on EBGames.com which has since been deleted.

Given GTA's popularity on the PC, and given that True Crime is fundamentally a GTA rip-off timed to appear during Rockstar North's "Christmas off", it's not too hard to imagine a PC version appearing at some stage, although we'd imagine that depends on whether True Crime can sustain its early success on PS2, Xbox and Cube.
