    This is not a remaster, but a real piece of sh*t.
    The remaster looks worse than the original. Many animations are cut. The graphics are terrible. Models are like plastic. The car is damaged worse than the original. In short, this is a complete failure.

    Very rushed, does not do the original justice. Rockstar really shot themselves in the foot with this one. It cost me $100 aud. I really could not see myself buying another game from this developer feeling so ripped off. Please don’t waste your money buying this.

    the only good thing about this game is the stories, but it's from the original games, the remaster doesn't add anything good to it.

    Tons of bugs, created based on the worst port for the game (nintendo switch) then they used AI to upscaled everything, then called it done. Worst remaster ive ever played. On top of that playstation isnt doing refunds. Worst experience.

    Absolutely abysmal. This is so so poor. Literally no words describe how these original iconic masterpieces have been butchered. Silly me buying day one for PS5. GSG and Rockstar should be ashamed.

Um absurdo pelo valor de $60 dólares cobrado e quase nada feito, levando em consideração o tamanho da empresa, arrecadações bilionárias e com apenas visão em lucrar em vez de respeitar os seus consumidores e fãs com no mínimo um bom trabalho.… Expand

    Ok you got me! Where the hell is the gta trilogy at? You guys are hiding it? These games are terrible!!! I'm going back to the old trilogy at least the cheat codes work! And what the hell is Grove Street games?? Rockstar has made millions from gamers now they turned around and spit in our faces! I believe Rockstar said **** it we don't care how it looks they will buy it anyway.

Esta chamada edição definitiva é uma das mais patéticas remasterizações de todos os tempos, especialmente considerando o quão incrível a Rockstar costumava ser. Eles eram os melhores. Eles foram os melhores que já existiram. Eles mostraram a outros desenvolvedores o que pode ser feito. Eu simplesmente não consigo acreditar que o fim da Rockstar seria assim. Este remasterizado é extremamente feio, cheio de erros e tem tantos problemas com modelos de personagens, etc. Eles não melhoraram quase nada. A IA está pior do que nunca, sem natação para 3 e Vice City, sem escadas de escalada para San Andreas, sem sistema de cobertura, nada de novo. Onde há melhorias na qualidade de vida e * muito mais * do que prometeram no artigo do NewsWire? E agora eles pedem 60 dólares por isso. Quem já trabalhou nisso tem pouca experiência em photoshop, é isso. Eles não têm ideia de como programar coisas novas. Este é o produto mais amador que uma empresa de bilhões de dólares já lançou. Eu absolutamente não me importo que a Rockstar North não tenha trabalhado nisso. Eles contrataram o estúdio, deram luz verde, eles estavam bem para lançá-lo em um estado como este. Está tudo por conta deles. Tudo. Agora que o Rockstar Launcher está fora do ar há mais de um dia, não consigo nem jogar Red Dead Redemption 2, porque ele me pede para me conectar à internet e não consigo fazer isso, porque o launcher está fora do ar. Isto é ridículo. Eles têm ordenhado GTA Online há mais de 8 anos e isso é tudo de que são capazes por agora. Sim, Red Dead 2 era ótimo, mas isso foi há 4-5 anos. Isso é muito tempo.… Expand

I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.… Expand

    Too bad a classic like this has been lazily and carelessly remastered. Bugs everywhere, bad characters and NPCs, strange rain, no physics improvements, no free sights on vehicles, no sound remastering, recycled GTA SA icons and sounds, among other issues. The price charged doesn't make any sense for a game like this...

    Totally upsetting, especially Vice City. Menu sounds that been replaced with ones from SA, Tommy looks obese VS original game where he has slim and hot. They didn’t even re-rendered 3D parts from game’s intro, they just took the 2003 game footage and put stupid filter on it. Disgusting, I’m asking my money back.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is by far one of the most shameful and pointless compilations since the Silent Hill HD collection. Where to start?

    Well for one, most of the iconic music is missing, that by itself gives it a zero out of ten. The music is CRITICAL to the entire feel of those games and most of the best tracks are just gone. Its not really a "definitive edition" if its missing content now is it. The games just aren't the same without "You dropped the bomb on me" or "Billie Jean"

    But that's not all. They all run like **** most of the time too (especially on switch) despite the source material being decades old. There is no reason a PS2 game with some ****ty bloom and lighting effects smeared over it on the crappy unreal engine can't run on the switch. The switch can run breath of the wild but not GTA3. The PC, PS and Xbox versions aren't great ether. This isn't even a Spyro Reignited situation where the first game is pretty ok but the other two feel half finished. Every game here sufferers in some major way unforgivable way.

    Some of the changes ruin the atmosphere. San Andreas doesn't have fog anymore which is both unrealistic for the California setting but also makes the world feel empty and like a toy trainset when flying high up. The games are also full of misspellings, look at any random sign and I promise with a 99% chance the signs will be spelled wrong. All the games are way too dark and the rain looks white and thick like God **** on you specifically because the rain doesn't even look like its happening anywhere but directly on you and only you. Lots of little things where changed that just suck, like all the menus use San Andreas sound effects now for no reason. Hell, San Andreas isn't even based on the original, its the ****ty mobile version we got back on the PS3/360. Its full of glitches and technically issues not on the PS2 original.

    These games somehow look significantly worst then the PS2 versions. The character models are Lovecraftian monsters. Candy Suxxx, Denise and Ryder are particularly awful looking. Asuka is cross eyed and worst of all the three protagonist are butchered to comedic proportions. Tommy Vercetti looks like a greasy Seth MacFarlane and has weird fingernails. Claud Speed looks on the verge of depression all the time and CJ looks like **** Shrek. Sure, the Grand Theft Auto series has always struggled with humans. The games always looked a generation behind when it came to character models but these are by far the ugliest humans the series has produced so far.

    For a "Definitive edition" a whole lot of things are worse and there isn't much new. The new mechanics like third person aiming, checkpoints, GPS and the weapons wheel are weak new additions and could have been easily done with mods to the existing games (Oh, wait Take 2 hates those never mind) Now don't get me wrong they are neat inclusions but for a "Definite edition" you'd expect more. Like what if they added cut content like the skate board in San Andreas or some of the cut missions. Or better yet what if it had an extra campaign where Claud, Tommy and CJ team up to do a bank heist or something! But (To rant about remakes for a bit) that would require effort and be something cool that actually make the games even better then they are. No we are in the age of bull**** remakes that are JUST the original game running on Unreal with a graphics mod on it. This isn't a problem with just this game but all these remakes we keep getting in general.

    I'm sick of the Spyro Reignited type of remake that is just the original but with motion blur and ugly bloom everywhere running on a ****ty engine that should be retired already. A lot of people are suckered into this like "Wow look its that thing I liked as a kid but now its new again!" but honestly I find most of these insulting like "You don't have to play that ****ty old version this is the new shiny version! **** those people who worked hard back in the day with much less. We come and misunderstand the intention of the originals and updated it with modern memes and **** Ok well, the game industry keeps changing, what happens in three years from now when this new one is outdated too? Oh what, the new reinvigorated, refurnished version is old now too! Oh wow its almost like that was a waste of our time and you should have just made a new game! Did these games even need to be remade? They are slightly rough around the edges compared to games now but they are old. Everyone and everything gets old and that's fine. They are by no means unplayable just because "Gasp, there is no third person aiming in 3 and Vice city" same thing with Spyro "Oh god, the game is not in wide screen and L and R control the camera hide your children" Just get over it. Games out right now will suffer the same thing later anyway so just let them be old and enjoy it for what it is. Maybe focus on the next actual game instead of **** up games that where fine.

    Or in sort, this **** sucks don't play it!    … Expand

    This is the worst remake/remaster of a game ever created. The GTA series is iconic and this is a stain on the reputation of the trilogy. The games should've never been remastered. Instead, how about this, Rockstar, announce GTA6...

    At this point I'm convinced the executives at Rockstar have milked the company dry buying mega yachts, bunkers and nightclubs.

    This is some disappointing stuff coming from rockstar quality. How are you going to remove such iconic things as story and music from games we gamers have been replaying for years? The graphics are garbage. Do better.

    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.
