    I'm enjoying it, cities look great and drivings cool, musics mostly there
    Yeah there's glitches...
    They distract and can be a pain
    But these are still great games

    I've only played San Andreas thus far, and holy hell way to take a classic and butcher it. The mechanics are worse, the graphic and artistic update do not justify the $60 price. The gameplay is beyond frustrating and glitchy. Serious updates and improvements needed asap or refund GTA fans for the failed cash grab.

    Remaster não é remake. Atualização gráfica não deve ser cobrado novamente a quem já tem os jogos. Principalmente quando se trata de um remaster tão porco. Mafia 2 foi remasterizado decentemente e foi dado FOR FREE pra quem já o tinha. 2K tb pertence à T2. Rockstar está se tornando aquilo que tanto temíamos.

    Disappointed that such a well established company did not bother to QA and had released the game in this state. Completed 50% of Vice City in the first weekend, and now I cannot load the game as it just crashes to the PS5 dashboard. Therefore, unplayable at launch. Should have patched before launch and not months down the line. Lack of professionalism.

These guys grove street games are a joke they have done only mobile ports and have bad reputation how can rockstar let these amateurs handle the remasters of the trilogy and ruin one of the best franchises of all time couldn't rockstar get their hands dirty and do their job themselves and go ahead and remake these games because these games deserve a remake not a remaster they are 20 years old i thought other developers and big company game publishers learned from the cyberpunk 2077 mess but i guess not game devs and big company game publishers keep doing the same mistakes as CD Projekt Red & Cyberpunk 2077 instead of learning their lesson to not release rushed game products a delayed game is eventually good a rushed game is forever bad release it when its ready but you want to catch the holiday money well i hope all of you greedy money hungry publishing bast@rds and developers that still haven't learned from the cyberpunk 2077 mess and you release games in a broken mess i hope you all get a lawsuit and lose a ton of money i hope people refund and get their money back and i hope Grove street games and Rockstar gets a class action lawsuit remove this from the playstation store until its fixed give back the PC gamers their mods.and get somebody good and competent like blue point games just as a mention example to remake these games because they deserve better .

    First red flag is when a game company refuses to show off the "modern" gameplay in action. Its also a red flag when you have review sites like IGN or Gamespot not putting their foot down and asking for gameplay footage to show to consumers, they're just as bad as Rockstar, because Rockstar pays them.

    Its like Cyberpunk all over again. Hopefully Rockstar catches the same heat you all were giving CDPR for that mess. This company makes 2.5 million dollars a day just from GTA online and Red Dead 2 Online and they gave you this hot garbage in return.

    Pirate this game at any cost if you really want to see how bad it is. Dont waste $60, especially if your a PC Player. Its wild Rockstar is making PC players require a internet connection to play a game that is strictly single player, further proving to consumers you dont own anything digital, eve after you paid for it.    … Expand

    I’m repeating what other users are experiencing, but one thing seems to be glaring for me.
    I grew up on Rockstar games and for GTAV and the both Red Dead titles, I actually went to midnight launches to be the first to get these now iconic and game defining titles in my hot little hands and on to my console.
    What I can’t understand is how Rockstar would trash their brand, reputation and legacy for such a grubby money grab.
    The fact that this “definitive” more aptly, defective version of the collection was allowed to be released by what I have regarded as the greatest game developer in history is bordering on criminal intent. The fact there was no gameplay shown or review copies given out prior to release would appear to support this.
    I also find it appalling and galling that Rockstar have removed these legacy titles and chased and harassed modders (who have done a far better job than the company tasked with producing this series) and threatened them with punitive damages.
    So now what is left of these games legacy? A steaming pile of lazy, underdone and underwhelming garbage.
    Ok, so the draw distance has been increased but so has the amount of bugs and glitches which I won’t list as so many others have done better than I can. However, special mention of rain effects that cripple the frame rate so substantially and bring on a sensation of nausea deserve a special mention.
    I’ll say it again, this launch is a grubby, disappointing cash grab.

    I honestly never thought that Rockstar would be capable of delivering such a messy remaster and with an even messier launch. I thought this was a Bethesda thing, but it is clear that is a widespread issue.    … Expand

    Games are awesome, but this is worthless. This is not a remaster. The community did a much better job.
    This is another way for Rockstar taking your money. Better to buy the games on the second hand market or spend your money elsewhere.

    Terrible character faces straight out of a Lego game. Blocky and clunky. This is downright lazy game design. The main characters are smooth and well designed. Everyone else looks like a block of wood or a potato. Glitches everywhere. There are so many typos in the game. Words, signs and businesses have misspelling's.

    No love went into this game. No care to detail. No passion.
    This is a half assed, rushed cash grab.

    The game remains pretty much the same as 20 years ago, same bugs, dumb ai, but with a graphic mod over it, with some bad upscaled textures and low quality "hd" characters which look plastic and bugged, many breaking lore changes along with new bugs, all in all, an overpriced AAA tag for a rushed remaster that only confirms the new money oriented mentality of the game devs.

    Absolute buggy, unpolished mess. They remove the original games from online stores just to push us these copies, that have less than the originals and are broken. I can't even play these. I'd rather have the originals up, and I'd rather them have kept allowing the mods to stay up. This is a disrespectful joke to the fanbase.

The graphics are a joke. The physics are easily the worst physics I have ever seen in a PS5 game by far. Too many bugs and glitches. A ridiculous amount of pop-ins. There are invisible walls. The AI is incredibly stupid. You can't swim in GTA 3 and Vice City. The gameplay is outdated and about the same as the originals. The driving mechanics are beyond horrible. The tail lights on cars don't even light up at night, when the original versions has that feature. How is it possible to make a remaster worse than the original? Pathetic.

    The rain effects look laughable. It looks like they hired the director of the Birdemic movie to create the rain effects. That is very embarrassing for a videogame franchise that is owned by a company that made billions of dollars. The character models look even worse and more cartoonish than the original. The characters look like they were created using WWE 2K20's character creation. Makes sense, considering WWE 2K series is also owned by Take-Two. Some songs on the radio are missing. The developers could have at least replaced those missing songs, but they were too greedy for that. The pool minigame in GTA San Andreas has terrible physics. And you can't even play with another friend with a second controller, when you could do that in the original version. You can't take pictures and save them in the Gallery section like you could in the original. In what world does a PS5 Definitive edition has less content than the original PS2? Imagine charging a ridiculous price of $60 for less content.

    The developers that advertised this game were extremely greedy and anti-consumer. Using vague terms such as "GTA V inspired controls" leaving us to speculate what that means. They decided to remove the classic versions of these games before even showcasing what this so-called "Definitive Edition" even looked like. It should be up to us to decide which version we want to buy, not the developers. The developers knew that if they were to call this horrendous game GTA Trilogy Remastered, then less people would be interested in pre-ordering this game. Speaking of pre-orders, the greedy developers had the audacity to open the window for pre-orders without even showing any gameplay. This outrageous greed makes Activision and Ubisoft look like saints in comparison.

    There is no multiplayer. So once you beat the campaigns, there is not a reason to play this game again. Charging $60 for a game with no replay value is a cash grab. And they had the audacity to take out the couch co-op multiplayer from GTA San Andreas. This is why I hate when consumers value nostalgia over quality. It just encourages developers to make cheap and lazy cash grabs. Don't get me wrong, these games were great when they first released. But by PS5 $60 standards, these games are the laughing stock of the videogame industry. I don't recommend this pathetic excuse of a remaster at all.    … Expand

    Horrible, buggy mess of a remaster. They can't get a PS2 game to run at 60FPS. Do yourself a favor and just stick with the originals. The game is fundamentally broken. The cops were randomly going down cross streets in San Andreas instead of chasing me. It doesn't even feel like the same game. Sadly I am not surprised at games being released in a completely broken state anymore.

    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.
