    Nostalgia is a great thing, especially when you have access to the game on the console you played it on as a kid (GTA 3, VC, SA on PS2).

    The fact they were and STILL are charging $60 for this is an absolute joke.

    If I were you, grab a PS2 for $10, get the original games for a few bucks each. You will enjoy it more, and if you grew up with these games, will leave the legacy intact.    … Expand

    This game came out for 60$. Even if it was free to play the hard disk space it occupies is more valuable. Do not buy this.

    Gta: the trilogy -the definitive edition An interesting project, rockstar patches have fixed half of the bugs and shortcomings. I, like all players, expected more from Rockstar, but I didn’t get what everyone wanted. In general, the game is not bad and my rating is 8/10

    Either keep the atmosphere that made the original great OR actually improve on the gameplay to bring it to modern day gaming for a new experiece. They did neither, and everything but the draw distance looks worse like storms or lighting.

    I found this game to be very good and it revived old memories in me, i didn't even remember the storyline so it was like a first time to me, i consider this to be must play if you played the original ones 10+ years ago (obv get it pirated for now because it is very expensive). I didn't get any glitches so maybe i'm losing some of the rage here, i'd give it a 9 for what i got at 0 bucks.I found this game to be very good and it revived old memories in me, i didn't even remember the storyline so it was like a first time to me, i consider this to be must play if you played the original ones 10+ years ago (obv get it pirated for now because it is very expensive).

    Tl/dr
    nobody, not a single soul on this planet can say that any effort when into this trilogy. They took beloved games, made them look worse, made them perform worse, left old bugs in and created over 15,000 new ones, made character models look like melted wax, the "granny" mobile game genuinelly has better graphics than these multi million dollar "remasters".

    If you want to play any of these games, play the originals, these "remasters" are a disgrace and an insult to you as a consumer.
    Also if you want proof just how little the company cares, look up grove street games, the scumbag CEO is denying that they did anything wrong, talking crap all over the internet acting like ALL the criticisms are simply untrue and that he created a "masterpiece". The company does not deserve your money

    Disgraceful is the best way to describe this. Taking old games polishing them up and then reselling the same existing product for easy money is not a new concept, but rockstar but in zero effort into this.

    1:It was made by a mobile company which right off the bat tells you it never even had the potential to be good.

    2: They somehow took games that were originally released as far back as 2001 and made them look *worse* than they already did. The original GTA 3 had more detailed models for everything, people, vehicles, buildings, weapons and clothing than this "remaster" has

    3: Bugs bugs bugs, these "remasters" take existing assets and supposedly "improve" them with more modern technology yet somehow the god awful company behind this not only left ever existing bug in the games but also managed to create roughly 15,000 new ones. evidently there was zero play testing done on this game. You genuinelly cannot play for more than 90 seconds without encountering at least 5 seperate bugs.

    All in all this is both a joke and a spit in the face of customers. These games are iconic:
    GTA 3 was the first 3d sandbox game of its genre, it literally changed the landscape for all games to come after it.
    Vice city is not as recognized as 3 or SA but it holds its own place, it took what GTA 3 started and expanded on it
    San andreas is the most legendary thing rockstar has ever created, this is without a doubt where GTA peaked. The customisation, the weight gain/loss, the ability to learn different fighting styles, the car customisation, the gang recrtuiment mechanics, the dates, the eating/drinking. San andreas encapsulated everything that makes GTA fun and ran with it.

    These remasters are so bad they urinate over the memory and legacy of these 3 games. If they had been remastered with a single shred of integrity then it could be a different story, iconic games remastered somewhat to modern standards could and should have been an easy way for rockstar both to make huge profit and to regain some popularity since their reputation has been waning thanks to their laziness of shilling the most boring gta (V) for almost a full decade without anything new.    … Expand

    This is such a terrible remaster of the face is crooked, the physics has not changed, the sounds are the same, there is no calizia, light is reflected from the characters, and my head ached from the rain. DO NOT BUY BOTH!

    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.
