    The map, vegetation and textures are fine, but the rest of the game is a complete disgrace. The characters are horrible and are completely uncharacterized, lost the essence of the game and are clearly poorly made.

    I do not even have the game in my library anymore, because Rockstar Games hsve decided to take it off the marketplace. THE GAME I PAID 60 DOLLARS FOR NOT EVEN A WEEK AGO! Worst release ever! And we thought Cyberpunk 2077 was a **** release lmao.

    I hate to say this, but this remaster is worse than Call of Duty Vanguard and Cyberpunk 2077, WORST REMASTER EVER, Rockstar and Take Two is basically becoming the next EA, Activision and CD Projekt Red, they are trying to pull off the cyberpunk, how could you go from RDR2 which is a masterpiece to this piece of **** I would have rather preferred GTA 4 Remastered and RDR 1 Remake over thisI hate to say this, but this remaster is worse than Call of Duty Vanguard and Cyberpunk 2077, WORST REMASTER EVER, Rockstar and Take Two is basically becoming the next EA, Activision and CD Projekt Red, they are trying to pull off the cyberpunk, how could you go from RDR2 which is a masterpiece to this piece of **** I would have rather preferred GTA 4 Remastered and RDR 1 Remake over this stupid GTA Triogy so called Definitive Edition and it isn't made by Rockstar, it's made by a company who were responsible for the broken Mobile port of GTA San Andreas on PS3, Xbox 360 and Mobile, the character models are awful, gunplay is awfulbugs, glitches, terrible rain, frame rate stutter issues, censorship, removed music from radio stations etc. Why couldn't they make Rockstar Dundee or North work on these Remasters, Don't Blame Grove Street Games aka Wardrum studios, Blame Rockstar and Take Two for making GSG work on the Remasters again, this Remaster is a joke and a cashgrab and slapped the 60 dollar price tag for this piece of ****, Mods are better, even modded versions look better than these Remasters, Don't buy these piece of **** even pirating is not worth it better off play the original trilogy and pirate it since Rockstar removed the og trilogy to sell this cashgrab, I would have rate 3 or 4 stars over the graphical improvements, texture upgrades, gta 5 style controller layouts, keeping the og cheats, increased draw distance etc. but I am giving 0 stars after what Rockstar and Take Two did to the modding community by Removing fan made mods, reverse engineered projects, famous 3D universe map Mods like GTA Underground and GTA 5 Map Mods etc. And slapping 60 dollars when you could Remaster yourself the og trilogy games for free using mods, so I advise you guys to not buy this trash and buy Battlefield 2042 or Elden Ring instead, Battlefield portal properly Remastered BF1942, Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3 and you can play these games together instead of separately, I am surely Boycotting this game and we should all boycott ROCKSTAR Games and Take Two for treating the community like garbage and how they are milking GTA 5 for 3 generations of consoles over GTA Online and Selling overpriced Shark Cards and how they Abandoned RDR2, single player DLCs for all games and Red Dead Online over GTA Online and not fixing the opressor Mk2 and godmode glitch but patching fun glitches for GTA Online and removing single player mods but NOT removing GTA Online and Red Dead Online mods which can ruin your experience and track your IP address and you can't play GTA Online and Red Dead Online on PC unless if you use VPN, Rockstar hasn't even added dedicated servers and Anti cheat for 8 goddamn years but Activision is finally adding an anti cheat after 2 years for Call of Duty especially Warzone, so I advise you guys to join forces and boycott Rockstar and Take Two until they listen to the community and fixes all the problems, we need Rockstar to do better, it all went downfall when Leslie Benzes, Lazlow Jones and Dan Houser left, I was a huge fan of Rockstar games and my first game was modded vice city and I started gaming with GTA and seeing this makes me extremely sad, and it's extremely sad to see fanboys defend this **** like their first game was gta 5 and gta online, At this point I think GTA 6 should be delayed by 2030 after seeing this buggy trilogy, if it wasn't for GTA Online, Bully 2 would have already come out, you ruined our childhood, you ruined the og feel of this game with this **** and Take Two said AAA games should be polished and fixed before release but then releases a broken game, that explains why they haven't shown us raw gameplay footage before release… Expand

    I was hoping the game will be well made... Oh buy how wrong I was.

    Characters look like cartoon sh from 2001.
    Textures are either missing, look prolly made or are flickering.
    They've removed over 20 songs from radio stations...

    And now they've even took the game down, we can't play what we paid for.

    Игра просто ужасна. Очень много багов (в том числе попавшие из старой игры), модели персонажей сделаны как попало на скорую руку. Самый большой провал Рокстар за всю историю.

    Just a shameful port. Spelling and texture errors, cars blow up almost instantly, the character models look horrifically bad - there really seems to have been no quality control on this game at all. At some points the characters’ hands will be half as long as their torsos.

    I cannot recommend anyone pay full-price for these games. Even if it were $15 I would tell people to wait for a sale.

    I started with GTAIIIDE. Immediately ran into certain problems e.g. fences are placed wrong. You phase through the visual of the fence, but behind that is the actual invisible mesh. Physics are broken, there is often way too much force applied when crashing into fences or cars.

    Missions often break, and often break when you restart the mission (new system).
    Music that is taken out.
    FPS drops from having great FPS to below 30,

    And the rain, oh...my...god... the rain.
    It is a small square texture/shader that has a VERY noticeable pattern that is repeated into infinity. It makes me physically ill. I get nauseous and get a headache from the effect. There is too much particles/texture, way too bright and you can't even look past it properly.
    The rain also doesn't overlay on water so if you look at water and land you see no rain effect on the water, except some reflections making rain go down above the water and upwards on the water.

    This game is a complete mess, And after a few hours the Rockstar Launcher shutdown, no way to play an offline singleplayer game because of this, and now they just deleted it from my library and I have no way to play anymore. Here's hoping for a refund.

    This game doesn't deserve anyone's money.    … Expand

Far buildings just mess (2021 remaster, really?). vice city the most trash of all other games, peds stucking in the walls, going round and round around traffic light column, new grass dissapearing in 5 meters out of player so fields looks like bald. censorship and war with mods, no more rockstar for me. most of custom mods made this games looks better than this reforged edition. And this is for full AAA price. launcher always in autonomic mode and you cant play any game. are you joking?… Expand

    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!

    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.
