    A very poor remake that only really really changes the graphics by using AI to upscale everything. All of the previous bugs and issues built into these games are still here and the graphics may actually be worse in some areas as characters look like deformed monsters due to the upscale.

    If you played the originals and still have them then go play that instead.

    This remaster is really bad. We got a lot of bugs, problems with animations, lighting and gameplay. In addition, more than 40 tracks have been removed from radio stations and many moments have been censored. Bravo, Rockstar, remove this shame from your stores and bring back the original games!

    Id like to preface that I only played San-Andreas so far. I got about 7-8 hours in.

    This was a great opportunity to make these games "friendlier" and without stupid design decisions. Spent 20k dollars on weapons, grenades and car upgrades? Well once you die/get arrested, you can say bye to all of that. Parked a car before a cut-scene? Well say bye to that too.

    Parked a car before a cut-scene? Well say bye to that too.
    Left a car one street away? bye, bye!
    Seriously, there is so many issues with these games that people just overlooked because they were revolutionary for their times. In new or remastered games you at least expect some nice quality of life features.
    So the car upgrades are still useless because you're gonna lose your car before the mission.
    In some spots you can clearly see AI upscaled textures that look like impressionist paintings.

    Some of the improvements are not really improvements at all, when you buy new clothes in san andreas you get sort of a really bad preview of the item, like badly drawn shirts and shoes that don't show anything how the item actually looks. For example a green shoe is drawn like a white shoe.

    Not to mention the clipping of your clothes trough your character like chains and watches and hats.
    Just lots of bad things left over that was not fixed, certainly not a "definite" edition. More like lazy, lets use an AI from github that will upscale all the textures, draw a few of our own textures and thats it.

    Another "improvement" is glow around enemies, which is basically like some sort of hunter vision in other games, very ugly and immersion breaking.
    Some things got worse, the lifting minigame in the gym is pretty much broken and not a challenge at all.
    With the weakest CJ , you can lift the heaviest weights by just mashing e.

    Controls are bad and mouse support is pretty much non existent in the menus.
    This is a game where by default "T" key is cancel/go back operation in menus.
    What? I have a feeling the devs didn't play their game.

    I was playing on a rx480 and ryzen 3600 and the game ran at around 60fps at high. Not great for a game that looks like this. For example battlefield 4 I run at 144fps at high.

    Very disappointing, don't waste your money. I am giving 1/10 because now at least you can instantly restart a failed mission.    … Expand

    Неплохо для бесплатного мода на гта. Графика правда не очень, качество озвучки не изменилось, часть музыки вырезали. Ещё очень много багов, надеюсь мододелы исправят этот недочёт.

This is like spitting to someones face then asking 60$ for it. Releasing this thing should be a crime seriously. There is no way, like i bet some 14 y.o with some coding experience could've made a better "Definitive" edition. There is no hope for anything to come from this company. The fact those "developers" pretend like they made a good job on twitter is even worse, people needs to get fired, seriously a lot of them. Because you pay those people to remaster a game and they make **** this. If i were the company i would ask them to pay me instead because they are literally able to stay at the **** office doing NOTHING but harm. I cannot even explain myself correctly about this thing without reaching the character limit. Do not buy this thing, i swear you'll get colon cancer or something after playing for 30 minutes. Your Girlfriend will breakup with you, your dad will disown you if he sees you playing this. Just for the love of god download an Emulator and play the PS2 rom, it's better. Even trying to write a review about this thing feels wrong. Because for me to be able to write a review, there should be something positive. But only thing i got positive after playing this **** is my HIV test.… 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.
