O el juego original era mucho más mediocre que los que vinieron después, o lo sobredificultearon para alargar la duración.

    La remasterización deja muchísimo que desear en cuanto al nivel gráfico, artístico y el rendimiento... Se ha mejorado, pero la sensación de que el juego va a una velocidad de más debido a los 60fps sigue ahí. Una verdadera lástima.

    I played this for the first time last month after a lot of the major game-breaking bugs were fixed. While I still encountered a few annoying glitches, this was my first time playing all three of these games. If you've ever played Grand Theft Auto 5, these games are well worth your time and money. I am a huge GTA fan and I had a blast with all three of these.

    Even in performance mode it still often drops below 30 fps. Many songs in the original version were deleted. Due to the increased number of characters and vehicles, GTAIII and VC feels harder than the original version, they only added checkpoints at the beginning of the mission. Seriously? I don't think it's worth 60 dollars, it's only worth up to $30.

    I really love all the original GTA games.

    But with the GTA definitive trilogy, it's an absurd situation when the graphics in the original are better than in the remaster. absolutely unacceptable detailing of characters, cars, objects. Compared to previous games, this is a blatant failure. I have made a refund of this trilogy.

    I hope GTA 6 will be as good as GTA V or GTA IV.

    i have a theory why they didnt post this game on steam, the theory is that then gamers will see how big of a dissapoinment this game is. u know steam do have a thumb up or down review system/ability and then players will give this game so many thumbs down that people before buying the game will see that this game is bad. then if someone see that a game is bad ofcourse less people will buy it when they see a bad that is mostly negative or overwhelingly bad reviews on steam.

    and also that they said unexpected bugs and fails with the game, xD that is like i can clearly see that i painted the wall pink when the person who payed me to pain wanted grey. yea i didnt see that. it was verry unexpected that i did use pink instead of grey. ofcourse i painted the room. i have worked and seen it everyihing in and out. but yea this was verry unexpected. xD

    It's sad, that this remasters did not carry many of the original's features. For example:

    Vice City: - no "Mission complete" music - menu sounds from GTA SA, and poorly implemented, like no sound on hover San Andreas: - only sprint ride on bicycle (I suppose it comes from mobile versions). Original game had a regular ride - Buff/Fat CJ run animations same as skinny. Original game

    And that's what I found playing less that hour in each game. According to Youtube videos there are more.

    UPDATE 12/14/2021
    Almost all of this has been fixed in latest updates. So I'm raising it from 0 to 4 due to lingering bugs. Hope to raise it to a higher score someday.

GTA 3 was insane back in the day, and it was extremely hard to play and full of moments that make you rage. But also those moments can get you further into the game and the bugs can be hilarious. TLDR YALL TRIPPIN ACTING LIKE THESE GAMES HAVE BEEN RUINED WHEN YALL ARE COMPARING THEM TO MODERN GAMES AND HAVENT ACTUALLY PLAYED THE ORIGINALS OR NOT IN YEARS.

    Rockstar Games has lost my confidence with Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Defective Edition. The overly cartoonish designs, most made by A.I., is an eyesore. The Unreal Engine conversion choice appears to be lazy. Frame drops, brand new bugs. This is not a game remaster worth playing let alone buying.

    I switch between m+k and controller, which the game actually handles quite fluently, but didn't expect they manage to destroy even that in some cases. For example, controlling the jetpack in San Andreas, is just broken. Additionally an entire mission in Vice City, completely unbeatable without mods. AI in general is broken, but not sure if this is remnant from the past code, so wont dig too much into that, but I do love it when enemies freezes when you shoot them, or the fact that they use wallhacks at times. Also, who doesnt love enemies that are invincible just because they are behind invisible walls, unless you hit a certain distance from them for their AI to target you?

    Then the physics is a bit changed. For example, in San Andreas, every road that is marked on the map, if you are in a car, well its asphalt. Stay in the marked lane, no traction problem.... Want to fly a jetpack, and play on PC? Better not use m+k, cause the controls don't work (seriously, they dont work, you need a controller for the jetpack, you cant land with m+k). Want misaligned textures? Get a tattoo in San Andreas and watch any cut scene where its visible.

    On the positive, Vice City is fairly playable, except one mission you just cant beat (except on PC, where you can turn to the modders that they so deeply hate over at Rockstar). San Andreas is a hot mess. Haven't touched GTA 3, as that game doesn't interest me too much to revisit in this turdfest (got it at release, but I remember the mechanics and I think without a proper remake, they would be too dated to even be worth revisiting). I got the game, expecting a hot mess, and even owning all the classic titles on Steam. All I wanted to do was to play the games I remember and be able to properly use the controller when I want to and Mouse + Keyboard when I want to, and funnily enough it kind of delivered on that and even then I still ended up being disappointed somehow. This isn't a remake, it is far from a "definitive" version, and even if you are aware of all the issues, just don't get this. I mean, Rockstar can try to polish this turd, but it will still smell.

    A lazy cash grab product for a premium price. Rockstar used to be innovative and top quality but clearly that is no longer the case.

    I don't usually submit scores but this is too much.
    I've tried to play this on release and discovered that it was and still is a buggy mess even after some patches. For instance, I wasn't even able to save the game. Isn't that feature number one you need to be able to complete the game?
    Some more bugs I've discovered (still actual after the patches): - The menu sometimes just does not

    Some more bugs I've discovered (still actual after the patches):
    - The menu sometimes just does not work - items are just not selectable, nothing happens when you click on a menu item.
    - The protagonist sometimes just starts to fall infinitely while being on a surface and you lose controls and have to reload your game.
    - The protagonist runs faster if you switch weapons and it is faster than sprinting.

    And all of these I've discovered in less than an hour of gameplay. These games were not playtested. I could've forgiven even these bugs if it was surpassing the original games.
    Original games don't make everything look like it is made out of plastic.
    Original games don't make you think that there wasn't even a person who makes sure the in-game models are made in the same style.
    Original games don't have problems with overlapping effects.
    The atmosphere of GTA 3 is completely lost - everything is supposed to be dark and gloomy and now every surface shines and reflects light even if it is not supposed to - like grass or character faces.

    So, just to recap. The gameplay is broken and the new graphics suck.
    Original games were exciting to play and the definitive (?) edition makes me feel disappointed since it does only one job good. It successfully parasites on the original title.

    So my score is equal to the number of people I can recommend this game to. Zero.

    Rockstar said they will just improve visual quality. What do gamers expect from remaster a bit more but its okay they didnt promised that.

    But what we got? worse quality of textures and models...
    with
    terrible optimization
    with
    new and more bugs
    with high price!

    The game itself could be really good, but it's the same game with upgraded graphics, all the old bugs are still in the game, and we even saw the new ones.

It's sad that they even got to remove the original trilogy from the store just to place this instead, there are many other problems as well - censoring, launching problems etc. Overall, this was bad, but I can hope that soon the game could at least get patched.

    There’s bad remasters, and then there’s this. A serious blow to the franchise and companies credibility. Botched character models, missing elements of the map, and the worst rain effects you’ve ever seen in your life are just the beginning of what is undoubtably the most disappointing release of the year.

    There’s no way this went through any form of quality check. Combining this release

    There’s no way this went through any form of quality check. Combining this release with Take Two’s actions against their fan base prior to release, I think I’ll skip GTA 6.

    Whatever decade they stop milking GTA online’s outdated gameplay and release it of course.

    Unplayable. The contrast between the resources R* has, and the quality of the this experience, is nauseating. I was a diehard fan until about an hour into playing this game. I feel so sorry for anyone who got their first taste of the trilogy from this edition. Sickening.

    I hear everyone saying the trilogy has a lot of technical problems, and if it's true, I haven't noticed anything. I mean yes, the models look a bit weird, the rain is terrible but I haven't really seen anything else. I played the trilogy and it was a pretty good, with very few problems, from what I experienced.

    Warts-and-all remasters that accept the failings of the original games and make amends where possible, but ultimately too flawed to live up to the name. [Issue#9, p.82]

    From the Definitive Edition of the iconic GTA titles emerged a technically unfinished remaster, which remained halfway. The content is and will always remain timeless, but the way to get to it and to enjoy it is simply not good.

    A textbook example of how not to remaster games from the PlayStation 2 era, these defective "definitive" releases are just desecration of three classic titles that deserve much better treatment.
