Hi, so I want to get GTA 5 for my pc now after getting it on ps4. I am wondering if I buy the disc version is the whole game on there or do I have to download as well like fallout 4? Thanks.

GTA V's physical release comes with 6 DVDs that contain the full game. There have been a lot of patches since physical release, so there still would be probably about 2 to 4GB worth of downloading, but it would be a lot quicker than downloading the full 60GB game unless you have amazingly fast Internet.

Fallout 4 only came with one disc because Bethesda is cheap and didn't want to print 4 or 5 DVDs for each physical copy. A lot of physical releases are like that now where you either get a single disc with maybe a quarter of the game with the rest needing to be downloaded, or you get no disc at all and just a code, or a disc that only has a Steam installer on it and you have to download the whole game.
Not sure if or how often the'd update the actual discs. I'm assuming it's never.
You can play offline just fine, but as soon as you're online you'll likely need several significant updates.
The day 1 patch was a few gigs if i remember correctly.
 
Yeah that's fine I was just told that if you buy off the disc it will still be a 40GB download. Patches and stuff i'm not worried about its when you buy it off the disc and still have to download the game.
