    Просто отвратительное позорище для Rockstar. Сделать такой мерзкий ремастер и просить за него почти 5к рублей надо ещё постараться! Отдать величайшие игры в истории на "доработку" какой-то мелкой ноунейм компании, да ещё и восхвалять это нелепое детище... Это точно Rockstar сделали? Это эти то люди делают самую ожидаемую игру в мире (не считая Сталкер 2 и Атомик Хёрт)?

    I respect the intebtion of trying to improve the game. But its got so many issues, an entire corner of gta 3 map has no collissions. Constant frame drops on a game that could easily run on the ps3. This should of been a remake . Get rid of this bad studio and stop working with bad studios.

Stupid, the maximum range of drawing, everything became at a glance, the map began to seem small, although the map is huge, really - there are no clouds, fog, steam. I'm not even talking about bugs - you crash into a passenger car on a motorcycle, it flies off as if a train crashed into it at a speed of 300 km per hour. CJ runs fat, pumped up and thin in the same way, he has the same running animation, although they are different in the original. The sounds seemed to shake, as if they were recorded with a terrible microphone, in the lowest quality. In general, this also applies to GTA 3, Vice city. I know these games from the original, when they came out, I know them very well and they have the same **** made in a remaster, characters like from a Pixar cartoon, smeared with oil. Tony became kind of fat, with a fat face. Just a disgusting job that shouldn't have been done at all. And the most unpleasant thing is, for me, of course, it's not in the first place, but this is the price for which they sell it. I would buy, without any problems, a good remaster, where people tried, respected these games. I say again, the question of money is not worth it at all, but this, this does not deserve this money at all. In addition, the game is replaced by a remaster in the store, which is also just disgusting. In general, I have no desire to play this even for free. I'd better go replay each part, in the original on PS2. The original is the best!… Expand

    I believe. If we all collectively bully Rockstar Games enough, we can get them to fix their disaster of a, as they claim, 'definitive edition'

    That or let actual modders maybe tweak it a little. And by a little. I mean A LOT. A little bullying goes a long way. It worked for The Sonic Movie. Just saying. And besides all that.

    the worst **** I've ever seen.
    This is such a terrible release that I began to have an aversion to the entire gta series and doubts in my own mind, because I once loved her.

    1 - The community makes MODS with much more quality than that. I know there is loss of performance, but I'm talking about the QUALITY of the modelers.

Despite the technology, budgets and experience available - the modders had achieved way more years ago than what this release could . The rain system, old codes being left in etc. sounds like a hilariously bad joke but here we are. This just shows that there was perhaps very little QA Team involved or they had to rush and even approve due to the management pressure to have this released quickly. All in all it seems like the publisher wanted to showcase some new content and numbers through new releases aside from GTA online for year end or the earnings call in February and the company seems to be willing to sacrifice their reputation and customer relationships to meet these requirements. Not recommended even after half-baked patches and discounts are out eventually because the limitations of the game and the developer who worked on it can be seen very clearly.… Expand

    Esta remasterizacion es un insulto a los jugadores, bugs por montones, (sumando aun mas a los que traía los originales) eliminación de muchas canciones de las emisoras, unos modelados de personajes secundarios terribles y la optimización de pc deja mucho que desear.

    Yet another example of what a scam looks like in this era. Charging you a whopping $60 for what can only surmount to be a shell of its former self. A port of a game that fell flat on its face before even starting the race. From the astounding amount of game breaking bugs/glitches and questionable design choices, its no surprise the fans are outraged.

    1.Buy any if the original old games for 3 times its price
    2. Mod it like your life depends on it
    3. Mess up the physics values in the config files
    4 Profit: you obtained a mess way better than this trilogy, a less disgusting cash grab than this one which feels like Elon Musk begging for money at the traffic light.

    Understandably, there are a lot of very upset people.

    I'll start out by saying that shelling out £55 for a game for me isn't a big deal so the actual cost doesn't bother me a whole lot. However, the value does. There are parts of this remaster that are genuinely impressive and gorgeous. But it's the lack of transparency from Rockstar is what bothers me the most. Make no mistake    Understandably, there are a lot of very upset people.

    I'll start out by saying that shelling out £55 for a game for me isn't a big deal so the actual cost doesn't bother me a whole lot.

    However, the value does.

    There are parts of this remaster that are genuinely impressive and gorgeous. But it's the lack of transparency from Rockstar is what bothers me the most.

    Make no mistake about it - these are PS2 games with new textures and lighting. If you're expecting anything else then you will be disappointed.

    We were given a short trailer, showing side by side comparisons of the new engine, the lighting etc.

    We were promised quality of life changes and some of them have been effective, such as the weapon wheel and the radio wheel.

    And let's not forget that T2 has been suing modders and the original games are no longer for purchase.

    Sadly, the majority of what's been delivered is a buggy mess. There are glitches everywhere, some are simply aesthetic (and kinda funny) but some can break missions completely halting progress.

    There is an overall lack of care that's been given to this remaster. Simple things such as the hidden packages font in GTA III is still the same blurry original yet is updated in later titles.

    The rain makes the game unplayable and caused me to feel genuinely nauseous. Lance in GTA Vice City has his old model when using the cop uniform, but otherwise a new model. The list goes on and on.

    The sheer number of things that were overlooked are evident every single time you play the game. It leads me to believe that this cannot have been extensively tested, or even if it was, none of these issues were deemed worthy enough to be fixed on release.

    There are lots of game companies that seem to treat the general public as their own personal play testers, pointing out issues, glitches and bugs that they then fix with patches after release. To me, this is plain wrong. If I pay £55 for a game I expect it to be released in a state that is appropriate for that price tag.

    It's not all bad though - the games are still as fun as ever. The nostalgia is real and it's so nice to to return to these games after so many years. These are games that are forever linked with my childhood and some of my fondest memories. GTA III was the game that got me HOOKED in gaming and 20 years later it's a huge part of my life.

    Therefore it's very difficult to detach my personal bias from the situation and look at the games objectively.

    For all of the lies, the secrecy, the warts and the issues, I still LOVE these games and living in their beautiful updated environments has been heart warming and genuinely fun.

    The radio is still as funny and satirical as ever, the characters are over the top and the stories are absurd but thoroughly enjoyable.

    Be warned though, aspects of these games have not aged well. Many of the GTA III missions will require MULTIPLE attempts due to silly things that happen during missions that cause you to fail.

    This is less so in Vice City where they have done away with gang members shooting you on sight and silly timers in almost every mission.

    In closing, I guess I'm having enough fun to overlook all of the issues and not ask for a refund.

    This release was always going to be divisive - from art style, to remake vs remaster, to modernising; not everyone was going to be happy.

    If you're on the fence, buy it when it drops in price and patches (and mods) fix these glaring issues. But most importantly, take it for what it is. Know what you're getting into and enjoy it as much as you can.

    Or, don't buy it and continue to shout **** you Rockstar' and no-one will blame you one bit.    … Expand

    Эта "игра" -- смачный плевок в лицо фанатам серии Gran Theft Auto. Rockstar показали своё отношение не только к игровому сообществу, но и к своим легендарным творениям, выпустив этого Голгофского Дерьмодемона из своих коллуаров.

    They are pc ports of the broken mobile versions over original files which is why it is buggy.

    All you needed to do was include the mods as a base & just drop them a name tag in the credits, pre-mod-patched upgraded games for near free!*

    You choose to port broken games instead.

Now this?! It's a total lack of respect for the fans who've given their money all these years! The R* **** in our faces, spit in our heads and are still laughing... SHAMEFUL!    … 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.
