    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This "game" is obviously a weak attempt by rockstar games to regain public favor after their poor maintenance of the online titles such as red dead redemption online and grand theft auto online. Rockstar games took down numerous community made mods for the original games that where of much higher guality than the remakes in an attempt to make their remake better. Simply disgusting behaviour from such a large company. Simply sickining and a prime example of corporate greed and laziness.… Expand

    Character models look ripped straight out of Fortnite, even more awful than the original. Overall unfaithful experience to the original games. They expent anyone to pay 60$ for this game. Ridicilous

    If you Pre-ordered this and continue to play this and give it high praise then you are the reason we are not getting any news about a NEW game from Rockstar. Keep grove street games away from the RDR remaster, in fact, don't even buy that.

    Worst part is. R* knew exactly what they were doing. I am going to pirate all rockstar games from now on. Done spending money on crap. GTAO in unplayable. RDO don't have any updates. It's time we let rockstar know they f*ed up.

    Add a VISUAL MOD and sell the game as a new experience.
    Gameplay identical to the original game, ie bad.
    Ambient sounds similar to the original game, ie bad.
    Terrible graphical bugs.
    It was better to apologize to the MODDERS you sued as they did a better job than the "PRODUCER" .    … Expand

    The game are bad ported on all platforms, with performance issues and a lot of bugs, it's really incredible that a game with more than 10 years can have this kind of problems this days.

    The games had tremendous potential to make a come back & get this generation to experience what people experienced 15 years ago.

    Apparently this unreal port was a huge mess & it ruined a lot of the graphical aspects & art styles that the games originally intended to feel & look like. Rockstar OWES IT TO THESE GAMES! Period. if it weren't for GTA SA they wouldn't have been as    The games had tremendous potential to make a come back & get this generation to experience what people experienced 15 years ago.

    Apparently this unreal port was a huge mess & it ruined a lot of the graphical aspects & art styles that the games originally intended to feel & look like.

    Rockstar OWES IT TO THESE GAMES! Period. if it weren't for GTA SA they wouldn't have been as successful as they are today.

    The "Definitive Edition" failed to:

    1- Renew the music licensing & preserve the amazing selection of radio songs that the trilogy used to include back in the day which are a core part of the experience.

    2- Apparently there's NO FOG anymore! which means the whole map looks way too small even though it's supposed to feel big. (The same applies to clouds, & I think they did this to showcase to people the increased draw distance.. But that's still wrong. You can have both visual effects & a better draw distance!)

    3- The iconic color tint shading of the original games is now GONE! everything looks way saturated... (GTA SA used to have orange/yellow shading everywhere. GTA III used to have dark blueish grey. GTA Vice City had a pink/purple look to it)

    4- The orange god ray lighting of GTA SA when you look at the sun is now GONE! The original light trails of GTA III for whenever you looked at cars or bright lights are now gone!

    5- The characters look way too cartoony, plastic-y & out of touch with the edgy style of storytelling that the games used to have...

    6- The games didn't patch older bugs. (INFACT... they introduced numerous new ones!)

    7- Character animations have not been upscaled in smoothness & realism. They're still PS2 like which is just way too lazy if you ask me. (They should've added more smoothness to those animations but still preserve their art style)

    8- Voice lines & SFX have not been upscaled in audio quality for whatever reason! they sound like they have low bit rate. (EVEN THOUGH.. you can literally listen to them in HIGHER BIT RATE/QUALITY if you emulate the 20YO PS2 versions on PC! ... I have no idea how is this even possible.)

    9- Unsolved Easter eggs that people tried to look deep into & built websites & forums to try & solve have not been clarified in any shape or form. they're still as ambiguous as ever.

    10- the list probably goes on...

    Keep in mind that they went out of their way to SUE THEIR FANS by shutting down & DMCA-Claiming community-built free software that their fans have built & kept alive for years to cherish these games but instead sued those who were the BIGGEST FANS OF THIS SERIES for simply "reverse engineering" their "intellectual property" that they're not even selling anymore.

    That's how disgusting, relentless & unworthy Rockstar is.    … Expand

    This "remaster" is a horrible cash grab full of bugs, and even lacks some features from the original games. The cut-scenes cut off way too early, objects randomly start flying sometimes, and of course, the character models are garbage.

    I'm a big GTA fan. Sadly i must say I'm disappointed, characters looks bad, full of bugs and glitches.. Can't describe how bad i feel for preordering this game, don't make the same mistake as me, stay with OG versions, install some mods and save your money.

    there is just so much fixing in state as it is that its not getting better for a while or if ever.
    definitive edition art syle just feels like slapped on fortnite textures all over with fancy shaders.
    bought the original trio and it felt just so much better in every way.

    I've only bothered to create an account to leave this score. It pretty much tells you how bad this remaster is. Saying this as a childhood fan of the classic trilogy.

    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.
