    well they should had atleast given an option to increase and decrease the distance of the fog(and also an option to turn of the fog.) Its just so lazy. All they had to do was some line like(CL_DRAWFOG 1)(or something like that). (well GTA VC looks good without fog as it represent miami and it sets the whole thing well) but gta 3 and gta sa feels so weird, the whole thing is too lazy.well they should had atleast given an option to increase and decrease the distance of the fog(and also an option to turn of the fog.)

AND TOMMY? he looks like some kind of indian gang lord. they rushed the game so they could sell it for the holiday season. and Unreal engine 4? it is an somewhat unoptimised engine. even when rendering some what small area will cause fps drops. combined with the map of gta sa and unoptimised programing of the game. no wonder ps5 and xbox series X is performing frame drops issues. its a quarter baked game. they just should improved everything for like 6-12 months before releasing it. and also WAR DRUM STUDIOS. they made the **** mobile port for the classic trilogy. no wonder they messed this up big time!

    NO LAUNCHER EVER REQUIRES YOU TO HAVE A INTERNET CONNECTION FOR PLAYING SINGLE PLAYER TITLES. Well steam works. orgin works(orgin is made by EA and it WORKS)Epic games works(but has to enable offline login in settings). ubisoft connect works. BUT ROCK STAR LAUNCHER. (seriously. apart from gta v and rdr online there is no online games in there i suppose.) Rockstar launcher wont work even when i have to play a stupid single player title?    … Expand

    Fiquei com a sensação que podiam ter feito mais, jogo idêntico ao antigo só que com shaders e mais bugs, os bugs e o jeito que estragaram o jogo cheio de defeitos foi horrível, entregaram o jogo de qualquer jeito sem ao menos ter um esforço pra entregar o jogo redondo

    I had high expectations, but the bugs, glitches and the poor performance are just a terrible!
    Why does rockstar let groove street games, which is a real disgraces to their name, remodel the GTA Trilogy? A big disappointment!

    Absolutely pathetic from rockstar. They could've done more. They could've done better. One of the best developers in the business and this is what they give us? No GTA 6, just recycled games. No interaction with fans, just recycled games. C'mon rockstar, get on with being innovative again.

    What a POS. Honestly rockstar should refund every single person their money for this heap of trash. They touted all these gameplay updates and aside from a new lighting system and cartoony characters it plays like it did 10+ years ago, ZERO UPDATES. On top of that tons of music that was on the original games is completely gone which was a huge part of the nostalgia for me. Do yourself aWhat a POS.

Do yourself a favor and don’t give rockstar a ****ing dime for this low effort money grab of a game. Rockstar sucks for this and I’ll be super weary of them moving forward because I truly believe they deceived people into believing they had made all of these update when they clearly 100% did not.… Expand

    El juego es el mismo que su versión pasada solo con más luces, la nueva generación y antigua hubiera estado feliz con un remate y no un remaster, es lo que todos queremos para aprovechar al máx las nuevas consolas, y para que todos estén contentos que pongan la opción de cambiar el juego a la versión antigua para los gustos de todos

    The game looked amazing with really high resolution, this is as expected for a remaster. There's bugs that I haven't yet run into that will be patched out soon, and it really keeps the original feel of the game, just with a fresh coat of paint. (Although I don't recommend currently buying it, I would wait around a week after release)

    I bought this on ps4. Gta 3 has crashed more times than I can count. The game doesn't work the way it is supposed to. You're better off buying a ps2 and the disc on eBay. I demand a refund but I won't get it because Playstation policy. Don't buy new games. Don't trust developers.

    Virtually unplayable. Rockstar doesn't give a darn about how they treat they're dedicated customers. This is greed and the fact they won't acknowledge the true issues prove that point. Shame on them. All you have to do is look up YouTube videos and that's proof enough

To think that Rockstar did this should not surprise anybody and I'm sorry if you did actually pay full retail price for this overpriced hot garbage.… Expand

    Quite possibly the worst thing to grace GTA since the Oppressor Mark 2. Worst remake I have ever seen.

These new graphics have made the game worse in a few regards, for example in some story cutscenes where the characters look distraught in the original, now with the new graphics the characters faces are just the default face they make in the open world. There are also an unbelievably large amount of bugs. From getting stuck inside a tree to characters textures being corrupted, making it look like they went into a paint shop and head butt every single can of paint in the store. I am being %100 genuine when I say I’d rather play the mobile version. This is Rockstars Cyberpunk 2077. Actually no, at least the bugs In Cyberpunk some of the bugs had me on the floor rolling in laughter. This is a huge waste of money and frankly I wish I bought Battlefield 2042. If your considering buying this, for the love of all that is holy don’t. Just buy the mobile versions.… 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.
