    This is the bare minimum for a definitive edition, some could even say its below. My review score is still early so I can/will adjust after I 100% all 3 games. I'm enjoy these classics but I keep seeing things in game that needed to be better. I recommend holding out for a sale before buying, unless you are a die hard Gta fan like me and cant wait.

    While it's nice to revisit the classics and while some aspects of the game does look nice. There are other aspects of the game they didn't try on / made look worse.

    Cenário bonito, personagens zuados, preço absurdo, muitos bugs e remoções de diversas coisas

    NON-POPULAR OPINION! I am having a lot of fun in the remaster. I like the new graphics, GPS, autosaves and check points in missions. But I don't like character models, old physics and archaic animations. The whole thing looks OK at most. I recommend buying it when it is delivered.

Esta remasterización es muy buena y tiene potencial pero la mala optimización de está sobretodo en Xbox one y PS4 es muy mala apenas si se alcanzan los 30 fps además de bugs los gráficos son buenos pero necesita un parche de optimización… Expand

    Grand Theft Auto Trilogy: The Definitive Edition Hits Nostalgia and brings the classics to the new age... kinda. This isn't a remake but more a remaster that keeps the feel of the originals while adding a filter making everyone a bit more colorful and chubby claylike. The driving buttons has been modernized as well.

This isn't a remake but more a remaster that keeps the feel of the originals while adding a filter making everyone a bit more colorful and chubby claylike. The driving buttons has been modernized as well. The game was developed by Grove Street Games, Formerly a Mobile Only developer by a different name. The style is apparent however the games are still gta. There are some graphical glitches like characters with huge noodle arms but from the hours I played, a lot of the gameplay glitches and renders are the same as the original games. There has been a huge outcry over the PC version and missing files or files that are incorporated but shouldn't be, but that being said the game should be reviewed on the release rather than the outside resources. GTA Trilogy has some issues but at the end of the day its still GTA with a filter of new looks and the same gamplay from the past. That is... at least on the Xbox One X. It's a rough release but unlike the era of the past, we can now fix any issues in a patch and move on. If you're a huge GTA fan, I do recommend it even for $60 ($20 Per Game) although if you're not that big or only want San andreas then I'd skip for now and play San Andreas Definitive Edition for free on Gamepass.… Expand

    I never extensively played the original; only dabble in San Andreas. I really enjoyed the definitive edition of San Andreas. It's shortcomings are obvious and abundant. But, the game looks better (IMO), has modern controls, and runs smoothly. I see why people don't like it, but it isn't that bad.

    The bottom line is you should wait whether you’re a new fan or an old fan returning. This Definitive Edition was a sad excuse for a re-release. Visual issues plagued the gameplay making it a frustrating experience with goofy looking models looking worse than the originals. The sounds still hold up and have aged well and there is longevity with these titles as they are brilliant when functioning. I have faith they will continue to update and fix issues, but game developers are getting away with dropping broken games and fixing it later. The delay for the physical releases being pushed back to the 17th shows that they want more time to fix them. The digital launch was a beta test at best and we were the guinea pigs to experiment with. Wait for the inevitable updates to slowly roll out before giving your money to a game company that wanted to swindle loving fans at launch. At least San Andreas is part of Game Pass if looking to test the waters before buying.

    Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy- Definitive Edition on Xbox is an overpriced and poorly produced release which does absolutely no favours to the classic games it attempts to celebrate. The experience here is far from definitive, and aside from the sheer laziness in the graphical remastering and performance, it introduces a whole slew of performance issues.
