    Отвратительная работа. GTA Vice City моя самая любимая часть игры, и видя что они с ней сделали, я просто хочу нынешней компании Rockstar скорейшего закрытия. Это уже не та компания, которая создавала те самые GTA, это очередные талерасты, которые не хотят ничего делать, при этом поганят наследие той самой Rockstar.Отвратительная работа.

    The remasters aren’t perfect. Overtime I’m sure rockstar will fix the bugs. Those complaining about the lack of swimming in GTA 3 and Vice City… you couldn’t swim in the originals either. These games are fun and very true to their originals.

    Я давно не был так разочарован... Это просто кошмар. Даже не на хайпе хочу занизить оценку, я сознательно больше нуля не могу поставить этому, потому что они просто убили не только то, за что я любил оригинальную ГТА, они убили то, за что я любил старые игры в принципе!!!

Даже не на хайпе хочу занизить оценку, я сознательно больше нуля не могу поставить этому, потому что они просто убили не только то, за что я любил оригинальную ГТА, они убили то, за что я любил старые игры в принципе!!! Я даже не хочу писать про то, как выглядят персонажи, и что вся игра стала мультяшной, и что теперь я ее просто не могу воспринимать серьезно, я бы много мог про это написать, но хочу затронуть другую, не менее важную тему - удаление оригинальных текстур витрин и замена их на проклятую "3d" текстуру за стеклом. Это выглядит ужасно, но хуже всего это просто стирает все детали, которыми наполнили мир оригинальные разработчики. Я очень люблю фото текстуры, и мне очень жаль, что с ними так обходятся, даже в Mafia Definitive Edition несмотря на отличную детализацию, все витрины заменены на пустые стекла, хотя в оригинале было куча деталей, хоть и запечатленных в текстуры, но ты смотрел на эти текстуры и видел в них кучу деталей, интерьер, стеллажи с конкретными товарами, вывески, наклейки, все передавали через фототекстуры даже в те давние времена. Но сейчас вместо них витрины просто заменяются стеклом, за которым максимум поставят пару предметов или убогую замыленную 3d текстуру, в которой нет никаких деталей, но из-за блестящей поверхности стекла выглядит лучше, чем фототекстура. Я считаю это огромным минусом текущих технологий, из-за чего все дома кажутся одинаковыми. В оригинальной же трилогии GTA создали почти каждое здание индивидуальным за счет ранообразных фототекстур и вывесок, каждое здание представляло собой уникальный интерьер, но в этом недоремейке все стерли начисто, просто заменив фототекстуры на убогое стекло, уничтожив все детали и индивидуальность зданий. Лучше бы они просто подправили освещение, эффекты и дальность прорисовки, чем портили все остальное. Это худшие впечатления, что я получил, играя в игры, так испортить хорошие игры надо постараться.… Expand

    The graphics are generally beautiful, but the technical condition of the game is terrible, many of the game's mechanics are broken. I want my money back

    Grand Theft Auto III is one of the finest pieces of video game open world literature ever made when it first came out 20 years ago, and after 20 years later we finally got the GTA III: Trilogy remastered just in time for its 20 years anniversary and... it's nowhere close as masterful you might've thought it'll be.

Sadly, this 20 year anniversary port has technical issues involving gameplay, bugs, heavy rain, and typos on signs/billboards and of course endless amounts of frustration that involves the shooting mechanics. The gameplay features still feels exactly the same and fluid as the PS2 ports which is great. The graphics and upgraded textures with lighting and environmental upgrades is an incredible upgrade, but in terms of gameplay performance - the frame rate is just embarassing on PS5 after turning on performance mode. Everything else about this trilogy is a nice touch from porting the classic Renderware engine to Unreal Engine 5 after Rockstar merged with Epic Games after the success of Fortnite and I can see why Rockstar chose UE5 and I am indifferent about it. For those that are wondering about the OSTs for all three classic GTA titles, most songs are not affected as most of them got renewed in terms of licensing and I am glad most of the songs from GTA VC are still there. If I was being completely honest, this game needs a lot of patches to fix the gameplay presentation and they should bring back the classic control and aim shooting scheme from the PS2 era. As a lifelong fan of Rockstar Games, I am starting to worry about the future for Rockstar and I don't know if I can call this 20 year anniversary remaster a cash grab or not but I am starting to have doubts in them after one of the great veteran Rockstar leads left the company. And to be honest, GTA III: The Definitive Edition deserved better. Overall, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition is what I call a 20 year anniversary remaster that look superb thanks to the modern technology that brought the best out of the GTA3 trilogy, but it doesn't feel like a proper revamped Rockstar remaster we know anymore.… Expand

    Created a metacritic account just to let R* know they are lazy and greedy. I'm refunding and recommending anyone who wants to play get a crack. I'm surprised they haven't found a way to sell shark cards in them.

    Big improvement on graphics overall but that's it really. Loads of bugs and gameplay should have been improved more. I feel a remake would have been better for these games.

    Rockstar shouldn't have released this trilogy especially at this price. It's a joke, and War Drum / Grove Street Games should be banned from the game developmet industry.

    The state of the trilogy is a disaster.

    AVOID BUYING!

    Man, Rockstar really did pull a Cyberpunk 2077 on us. How this trilogy was ever let out the door is beyond me. Runs poorly.

The game world is littered with spelling errors and typos. The funny signs you see around the game world have been edited in case they cause offence to modern audiences. And the way they have edited the signs makes it so the signs no longer make any sense whatsoever so the jokes are gone. These signs were a part of the charm of the originals. Over 40 music tracks have been removed from the trilogy. From Michael Jackson, Dr Dre, Ozzy Osbourne, The Buggles and many more. There are many weird graphical glitches and weird design choices, like removing the fog, sun effects and much more. A lot of what made the original games such loved classics is simply gone. Someone has since gone into the game code and seen notes left within the code by the game developers who made this remaster. When you read these messages it becomes very clear that this remaster was made by people who didn't care one bit. It is a quickly thrown together rushed out cash grab trying to cash in on the nostalgia of the originals just in time for all that Christmas cash. Rockstar has become super greedy and sloppy ever since GTAV Online and shark cards became a thing. Ever since Leslie Benzies, Dan Houser, Lazlow and others left Rockstar Games the company is finished.… Expand

    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.
