    Three great games without a doubt, but poorly optimized, many bugs that do not allow me to enjoy them, it is a shame that this happens with emblematic games known for their great quality.
    I only feel sadness and frustration.

    Do you really want to see reviews of this dumpster fire before buying it? the game is of horrible quality, essentially a mod that ports the old games into unreal engine with very few tweaks that barely improve the experience. Please don't waste 60 euros in this dogsh#t.

    I feel like playing an alpha version. I wonder whether it was even tested before release.

    Now having a game-breaking bug in Vice city Mission #46 - Gun Runner. (Crates just hover and can't be destroyed)

    Endless amount of bugs like:
    -Performance problems (I have 2080 Super GPU, and for this old game shouldn't be a problem)
    -Framerate issues after closing the map or replaying a mission
    -Grand Theft Auto V-style controls are very misleading (can't enter car until entirely stopped, shooting is far away from GTA5 functionality
    -Subpar visual quality (rain effects etc.), art direction in textures is terrible.
    -most of the animations look ridiculous on the new models

    Overall, I was waiting for some proper improvements. Mafia Definite edition set a bar for what many people expect from a "definite edition". I must say this was the most half-baked game I've ever played.

    The game is not finished. There is a lot of bugs. Sometimes while driving you'll find invisible wall in the middle of the road, sometimes in cutscenes you'll get hit by a car, there are places you'll fall under the map, bad collision with fences, hard framerate drops. And this is what million dollar company gives us?

    Had to re-sell the PS5 version and get the PC version as there are some mods already.
    Character Models have gone backwards. The rain is embarrassingly bad,
    Don't mind the original glitches, but too many new glitches added.
    Why is RockStar pulling down Mods, they should be paying the modders,
    Really hope they pull this and fix the trilogy.

Rockstar has definitely lost all of its top talents a looooong time back. these remaster games was created by a studio game that has literally no ability whatsoever. Nothing. While this was a great chance, they didn't address any of the primary issues of the original games. In 2004, the best they could accomplish was San Andreas. It was groundbreaking. Does this remaster do justice to the original? When it comes to keeping the original feel, they didn't even try. Is it acceptable that they've gotten rid of all the fog? Now the map resembles something out of Minecraft. What the **** is going on? Even in Grand Theft Auto 5, there's not that much draw-distance. A draw distance of this magnitude is unheard of in games, and even if it were, every game would have its share of fog-covered terrain. Nothing on a map should be visible to the naked eye. The immersion is ruined by this. Despite the fact that the map of San Andreas is not very tiny, it has been rendered uninspiring by the removal of any ambient noise. There is still no climbing or swimming in gta 3 and vice city. This is completely illogical. With two years of development time, you could've just replicated San Andrea's swimming/climbing animation and applied it to others like 3 and Vice City. Making horrible, uneven textures and copying the same Palm trees over and over again is all they can accomplish. Expand

    Except for the remaster GTA: SA that's quite good. Support for wide format, high resolution textures. Yes - the graphics are cartoonish, but it's still better than playing the original in 2021, which was problematic to launch on modern OS (win10/11) ...

    I hate to say this, but 2 Kids with a mod tool can do better than this big company.
    Played the game and it looks the same as before,
    I rate you to buy for 60$ the mods and the old game.
    With the mods it looks more like a remaster than this.

Terrible rain effects, draw distance (You can see mount chilliad from groove street wtf). pleny of bugs and glitches.

    the games could be better remastered, for example the characters, some look worse than in the original trilogy, and some passionate modders did the job much better

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a spit in the face of original fans, new fans, and fans of all walks. Obviously you cannot get too mad at Wardrum Studios/Grove Street Games, they probably got 0 budget, 0 time to work on the game, 0 help, etc. BUT OMG.
    I think its safe to say most of us just wanted the old games with a fresh coat of paint; a few touchups, bug fixes, and a little more modern controls. What'd we get? A game with laughably disgusting character models, MORE BUGS THAN THE ORIGINALS, and more than anything, inconsistency between the 3 titles.
    San Andreas targeting: Locks on like no tomorrow, does not care who you were aiming at or going to aim at.
    VC and GTA III targeting: meh
    The bugs are the biggest joke. As of the time of this review, the mission Gun Runner on GTA VC is currently unbeatable without mods and 3rd party fixes. Keep in mind, this is after the 2-3 days of this being off the market and an entire patch.
    Cars flip a lot easier, which leads to them blowing up (which was sped up as well and does not have any consistency)... why? who knows. They messed with models and physics but didnt account for how the game was originally supposed to be played and built. Cars that would do a U-Turn at 60mph with no issue now have the turn radius of a semi-truck, and I'm not even kidding, the turn radius' on cars have been increased so badly within these physics changes its a joke.
    There are even videos online of people flying through the air for 2 seconds and blowing up because the game thought "no wheels on ground=car flipped=explode".
    Then you have weapons like the rifles in Vice City that still have to do stationary manual targeting, which begs the question. WHY EVEN CHANGE THE TARGETING??

    Positives don't outweigh the negatives in this case, but there are undoubtedly improvements.
    For example, some of the character models DO LOOK BETTER. some...
    The weapon wheel was an amazing improvement that (when it doesn't bug) actually makes the gameplay a lot better.
    The lighting!!!!! OMG so much better.... in SOME CASES.. sometimes in dark areas you cannot even see characters when you squint, others, its so bright you can barely tell where you are. But every now and then, when you're driving, and that sunset hits, its just a nostalgic time.
    R* also makes about 5-8 million a day, so for them to NOT re-license the music is insulting. Okay, MJ songs and a few others I understand, but when you have 48 (i believe) songs taken out of a DEFINITIVE, REMASTERED EDITION, thats insulting.

    R* saw this as a cash grab to pass the time and pay the bills (aka fill pockets) while they work on the next major release, which we still haven't seen anything about....

    A poor effort, It's what I'd expect from Rockstar but regardless is still disappointing. These games paved the way for Rockstar's success and to see that Rockstar have failed to adequately remaster them just shows how capitalism has affected U.S. corporations and the quality of those things they produce.

    Trash coding, bad models, bad physics, trash animations, a very salty price for 3 old games.
    this edition is basically all the gta's with graphic mods.
    good work rockstar, you created the 2021 cyberpunk.

    I did my best to love this trilogy honestly. These games are what made my childhood so great. The nostalgia is the most intense I've ever had playing any game whatsoever and that is why it hurts so much to see how they did my childhood memories so fckn dirty. The overall image of the games (only played vice city and San andreas btw) can look beautiful at times (although I believe this gameI did my best to love this trilogy honestly.

The overall image of the games (only played vice city and San andreas btw) can look beautiful at times (although I believe this game deserved more) but once you start paying attention to the DETAILS, you realize that in many ways the game got worse. From npc models to weird character animations that weren't in the original game, iconic songs being taken out, the wrong text on billboards and the donut store (idek who decided that was a good idea), and much more. Even with all these things being in the game or lacking thereof, I tried my best to spend time playing it and loving the games. But then the bugs came. And oh lord were they rough. I'm not going to list off all of them but I'll mention the one that made me write this review. In San Andreas there is a mission (betrayal) and when I was playing it i was driving to the location under the bridge (in my memory this was a very climactic moment in the early part of the story) and when I reached the cutscene the audio was MISSING and it ruined the whole mood for me. Cmon guys... these games are legendary... they are games that made Rockstar as a company so respected amongst the gaming community. Seeing them do such a dishonor to their own legacy is what truly makes the dagger feel that much deeper. I would like to give this game a 5 or a 4 but due to this game being a masterpiece from 17 years ago that most games don't even come close to these days makes me give this remaster a goddamn ZERO. Rockstar lost most of my respect with gta online, and sadly this trilogy... was the final nail in the coffin. Expand

    Rockstar dropped the ball on this remaster. The cars and other moving models look like plastic toys and the cities look like polished excrement. The contrast between the environment and the models is horrible and the list of bugs is long and obnoxious. Quality of life changes are the only redeeming part of this remaster that does no favours for fans or newcomers. Skip it until they either fix it or let the moders do their job.

    I cannot currently recommend Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition on the PC, and a lot has to happen until I do. The truth is that I've had a decent amount of fun with this remaster; part of it is based on nostalgia, and part of it is based on some ridiculous, unavoidable bugs that weren't as frequent as I'd feared. Given all of these issues and the abysmal performance of the three games on the PC, I'd stay away from the trilogy until several major updates have been released. Even then, this remaster may not be for everyone.

    Overall, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition was set up to be one of the best things for GTA fans and it failed to hit that mark. It will now be remembered as a failure to launch title but I am sure Rockstar will step in and continue to fix some items within their game world.
