Gonna play crappy as hell unless rockstar offer a foldable Dualshock 3 that can connect through Bluetooth on the iDevices or Android, and you can map the buttons to position on the screen for other games.... this is a good step at least Rockstar wants to share the Love of Gta , Hopefully HD ps3 versions collection , id gladly pay $80 i love those damn games poured hundreds of hours doing random Crazy Stuff, i wish it had a youtube feature to post up the sick insane explosive Motor cycle stunts and when i hooked up 20 Tractors together or i think they where Tow Trucks , or jumped off Mount Chillad in a RV and Jumped Out and skydived and opened my shute as close to the ground as possible

Good, but TPS games are very difficult to play on touchscreen devices.

Will be getting because it's GTA.

Hopefully this announcement is amidst some GTA V news too.

AAACE54578d ago

How? It was hard enough trying to play a gta game on ds. Now they want one for phones. The only one it will work decent on is xperia play, but I dont think it sold well.

EazyC4577d ago

Surely you read my comment wrongly? I agree with your point of view, and my comment represents that.

DigitalRaptor4578d ago

How? How is this gonna play?

Awkward as hell I imagine. Best off playing it on dedicated devices.

Quagmire4578d ago (Edited 4578d ago )

Aww... I was hoping for a GTA III/VC/SA HD collection for PS3.

Darth Stewie4578d ago

Me too it only makes sense since the PS2 is where GTA3 made its debut.

Fil1014578d ago

totally agree they should release hd remakes of gta3/vc & sa on the store i'm pretty sure they would make a s**t load of money from them.

Quagmire4578d ago

Fuck the store, put it on disc.

VampiricDragon4578d ago

on rails, terrible controls, where not a person will buy

Wow, now thats UNREAL! Why do they try to hose us with re-releases when the community can do this with UE5?! Holy crap thats absolutely insane and puts T2 to absolute SHAME!

porkChop673d ago

That's actually incredible.

So yes it looks good but the thing is once you start building new assets and making significant changes like what's been done here it stops being gta 3.
In the example shots roads are so narrow they are essentially one way streets.

I'm not crapping on the work.this guy did it's fantastic but it's not gta 3.

This isn't a gta 3 remake in ue it's a fan game that uses gta 3 as inspiration if that's better or worse it's subjective.

Gta definitive wasn't great but that was more related to the ugly character models and bugs 1 was an attempt by gsg to leave a mark on the game the other was their lack of care.

Part of the charm of GTA is the semi cartoonish look it has. Making it too realistic doesn't fit the game.

LordoftheCritics673d ago

Remove the main character walking and its another generic enviroment demo.

Yup. Back when Microsoft was making some very bad decisions. They could have been the one that launched GTA. They could have had Heavenly Sword. They made a bad deal with Nvidia. And so on.

But, it worked out that Rockstar went multiplatform and Ninja Theory is now part of Microsoft after many years. And AMD won the contracts and Nvidia tech is not used by any home console manufacture except for portables like Switch.

Ah. Game history.

Lexreborn2862d ago

Heavenly sword as an IP has always been owned by Sony. Where did you hear MS could’ve had it?

Vanfernal862d ago

The very first first reveal of Heavenly Sword was a pc build on an Xbox website. Sony acquired the publishing rights later.

ApocalypseShadow861d ago (Edited 861d ago )

Guess you don't know your gaming history.

At one time, Heavenly sword was running on PC and then an early Xbox 360 prototype but was canceled in favor of PS3.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

I'm well aware who owns the IP.
Lol. So you're wrong. Take that to the bank. Vanfernal knows and says it below. I didn't say they owned the game. They own the developer. Did I have to spell it out.

Lexreborn2860d ago

@Apocalypse

When someone asks a question after a statement it’s them challenging their initial belief. Van gave a reason in which it was liked for giving the info.

Not knowing about one games point is pretty irrelevant to a whole of my gaming knowledge.

Profchaos862d ago

Actually rockstar didn't go multiplatform initially GTA 3 and vc were PS exclusive for a while and San Andreas also had 1 year exclusive period I remember being in high school and that week you were either waiting for San Andreas if you owned a PlayStation or halo 2 if you owned a Xbox

ApocalypseShadow861d ago

GTA 3 was PS2 exclusive. Now, GTA is multiplatform as it's ported to other consoles and mobile.

What is it with these kids these days. Lol.

NeoGamer232862d ago

Should've, Would've Could've - Didn't

zarbor861d ago

Well someone like to highlight MS failures. Sorry there are too many to count. If not for their incredible sized budget, they might not be around today. I'm glad they are so that the rest of them do not sit on their laurels. Nevertheless, it was clear and still is clear today MS had no idea what the **** they were doing back then. They "Jumped In" and did little to no homework.

Give them credit they have learned a few things since then. A GTA exclusive back then, would have changed the console gaming landscape. My only issue is that they still make some dumb decisions today and clearly have shown they still have much to learn....but they are getting better.
