    What about selling graphical mods pack with ugly models and poor optimization for full-price? I think Rockstar likes this idea.

    Это халтура!

    This game is bad. Straight up this game includes:
    - Very bad and buggy physics
    - Terrible graphical mods that change important core graphic elements (like fog) from the original
    - The rain is blinding and looks so bad to the point where its unplayable
    And many more. Please don't get this terrible game.

    This was just a lazy cash grab. 60 dollars for 3 twenty year old games that perform and look worse then they were on the Playstation 2. Rockstar should be held accountable for this scam but its reality, and they won't. So people should stop buying their games, but they won't.

Rockstar has been in the toilet for years now over milking GTA V’s online the same way Bethesda has been milking Skyrim, but atleast Bethesda makes other games! it’s been almost 8 years and all we’ve had is a horse riding simulator (i do like RDR but it’s no gta.)… Expand

    I can’t believe a genre like gta, and even more, coming from a giant like rockstar games would let me down like this. I can’t describe the hopes I had and I can’t believe that some random modders are able to create greater visual mods than a multi billion dollar company. Shame on you rockstar. I’m pretty concerned about how they might ruin the gta 6.

    Absolutely disgusting remaster. Cyberpunk looks like polished art compared to this trilogy. Full of bugs, terrible looking characters, bad graphic and performance. You can't buy legally classic editions of thoose game becouse of this cash grab. Shame on you Rockstar. San Andreas Definitive Edition is not worth to play even on gamepass. 0/10

    The bad: built on the smartphone versions, probably the worst versions of these games and retains bugs, glitches and questionable design choices from these versions; draw distance remains the same, but now without the fog. Result: when flying over Los Santos, you can see the other two cities in San Andreas, which creates the feeling of being in a small sandbox. In the other two games the feeling is even bigger. Not only that, but it also makes it more noticeable when objects that were previously in low polygons render right in front of you; facilitated minigames, removing the challenge from them (pool game, low rider battle, weight training); broken or missing animations (in any physical shape, whether thin, fat or muscular, CJ now always has the skinny animations); the "updated gameplay" is actually worse and less intuitive than the PS2 originals. Aiming is especially bad and NPCs get a glowing outline around their bodies when they're in your sights, much like a mobile game like Gangster City or other mobile GTA derivatives; Control mapping is not designed to cover all forms of locomotion. If you fix it for cars, it's bad for Hydra. Fix it for Hydra and it's bad for jetpack, etc.; chose to keep the cartoon art direction of the originals but the result, particularly as far as the character models are concerned, is something of a gigantic uncanny valley. With the exception of Claude, protagonist in GTA III, all other characters, including Claude himself in his appearance in GTA San Andreas, in addition to the other protagonists, minor characters and NPCs are not only weird-looking but less detailed compared side-by-side with the originals; aside from bugs in smartphone versions, it adds several new ones. From visuals to gameplay, in cutscenes and beyond; Terrible weather effects. Rain, for example, falls a layer behind the game's water, whether from rivers, lakes or ocean. That is, the raindrops "disappear" when they pass above the ocean from the player's point of view. Some players have reported headaches caused by looking at this rain effect for a long time. Clouds became JPEGs in a static sky, where before it was possible to go "inside" them while riding a Hydra, giving the feeling of high altitudes; the nitro of the cars doesn't do the increased motion blur effect, which used to bring a sense of speed; in GTA San Andreas, some weapons are as well detailed as the M4 rifle, while others like the AK47 are less detailed in the character's hand than those that adorn the interior of the Los Santos Police Station and, finally, the performance. The collection runs locked at 30 frames per second on 8th gen consoles and has frame drops even on high-end PCs or new gen consoles. GTA V is a game with much more information, textures and heavy effects to be read and has a much more stable performance within the same setup that struggles to maintain 60 frames in GTA The Trilogy.

    The summary: it's a trilogy that updates the graphics of the originals while maintaining fidelity to gameplay and art direction, though that means sacrificing improvements that would be welcome in these areas. It doesn't justify the price, nor the removal of originals from digital stores, as they are by no means worthy replacements.    … Expand

    Terrible remaster. Nothing more than a quick cashgrab from Takedown Two which are the same **** with an anti-modding stance and that took down numerous mods and sued modders because they came up with something far better than this terrible remaster.

    Unforgiveably bad, glorified ports of the mobile versions from 10 years ago with a slight lick of paint.

This is how Rockstar treats the much beloved and revered original 3D trilogy by handing the games off to a developer whom either didn't care or wasn't given the support and budget to produce something better. Riddled with bugs, graphical glitches and horrible character models that somehow look worse than their two decade old originals. The much touted GTA V design elements that were supposed to help modernise these games amount to nothing more than a weapon wheel and passable aiming. It takes a special kind of ineptitude to make 20 year old games running on a modern engine to perform so poorly on the latest generation of consoles. The fact Rockstar have the gall to charge £60 for this dumpster fire and call it a "Definitive Edition" is laughable and just outright insulting. These games deserved so much better. Fans of these games desrved better. The only reason this score isnt zero is because the original games are still fun to play. Shame on you Rockstar.… Expand

    Zero é muito para esse arremedo que a rockstar chama de "versão definitiva". Eu já estava meio desconfiado em relação ao gta VI, agora estou sem esperança... não é aceitável lançar jogos tão icônicos feitos de uma maneira tão tosca.

    GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition brings all the fun of the classic games of the series that has always seen its career rise. However, it shows a hard fall with this remaster due to a lack of work in its execution.

    This comeback of the three GTA classics feels superficial and poorly optimized, although some improvements are clearly visible. It's not the remaster we were hoping for, but these are still immortal classics that can still entertain and sometimes even amaze. And sometimes that's all we need.
