A Look At The Rare GTA Trilogy On PS2

CGUK writes:

"With Grand Theft Auto: V due in mere months, now is the best time to relive any of the PS2-era GTA games you wish to revisit. With this in mind, we at CGUK utilized this opportunity to highlight a rare-trilogy of classic games that has shot-up in value since its 2009 release. Featuring 3 of the PS2's most controversial yet most appreciated open-world games, the GTA: Trilogy is the easiest way to grab the 3 included classics in a hurry; however, as time has had its effect, the value of this convenient package has skyrocketed since its debut 4 years ago to heights greater than its original RRP."

This is Rare? My walmart has a ton of these on the shelf. I guess I better go pick it up next time I'm there.

animegamingnerd4327d ago

same here my walmart has had these as well for years now

thereapersson4327d ago (Edited 4327d ago )

Not only are they not rare, they are the censored / edited versions of San Andreas and Vice City (Vice City being the version with the Haitians that have been changed from their original appearance.

MRMagoo1234327d ago

I have the uncensored version of san andreas for ps2 at home i bought it while i was living in England now im back in Australia i have a game not many ppl here have lol.

RE_L_MAYER4327d ago

Lol I was gonna say we got it at wallmart

OCEANGROWNKUSH4327d ago (Edited 4327d ago )

This is the PAL (european) version, as shown by the royal blue case.

Im not sure of the rarity of the PAL version, but in some occurrences PAL games are rarer than it's NTSC counterpart...

Case in point... The PS1 game "Blues Clues: Blues Big Musical" in NTSC format is common as they come, but the PAL version of this game is one of the rarest titles in the PAL PS1 Library.

ajax174327d ago

I guess it's only rare in the UK

Cam9774327d ago

The NTSC version isn't rare, it's a different story for the PAL version. Look at it on Amazon.com then take a look at it on Amazon.co.uk. See what I mean?

Lol. Rare. I have ten copies of this in my store for $9.99 a piece. We can't get rid of the things.

BozoLoco4327d ago

Rare? Even in Australia where a game with excessive farting gets banned was this trilogy pack readily available (and probably still is).

porkChop4327d ago (Edited 4327d ago )

These aren't rare at all... And you can get them for fairly cheap.

‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’

That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.

Profchaos2d ago

Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)

Tacoboto2d ago

It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.

GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.

FortWaba2d ago

Trash article and trash website.

Doesn't even mention WHEN it's leaving.

gold_drake1d 20h ago (Edited 1d 20h ago )

so i looked cause i was curious, its still avaliable to me.

the headline is misleading asf.

also, how did no one report this. the editing is horrendous. they'd have my arse for this ha

gamerz1d 14h ago

Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?

Shiore2u1d 6h ago

There should be a second listing right under it in your library.

Is there anything wrong with the enhanced version if you’re just playing single player?

My problem with the game is they want to install a Kernel level driver before I can even boot the game in sngle player mode I don't care about GTA online

I flat out refuse to allow any game kernal level it's a huge risk I don't need to take

It's not the only game that has done this. Ut it's absolutely shutting the dorr completely on PC gaming for me kernal level drivers are ineffective at preventing cheaters but publishers insist on continued use

Pyrofire9545d ago

My big issue is how long it takes to transition between open world and interiors in Online.
Sometimes it can take over a minute of just starring at a black screen.

badz14945d ago

Let it sleep already R*. VI is coming and this game has had 12 years in the spotlight.

It looks great, got everything running on ultra, have long shadows set to max and it's running silky smooth.

The ray tracing and lighting makes the game look amazing.

CrimsonIdol49d ago

The reflections are a noisy mess, particularly with DLSS. Shame they didn't have ray reconstruction, seems to work wonders for cyberpunk

MrDead49d ago

The reflections are like a mirror, I have no noise at all. Are you sure you have it set correctly?

CrimsonIdol49d ago

I've everything maxed out. the reflections DO have a lot of noise in them in motion. When you stop for a second to look at them they look okay but when you're driving around there's a definite blur and sparkle to them that you often get from RT. Again, exactly the same as you get in Cyberpunk without ray reconstruction but is much reduced with.

MrDead49d ago

I really don't have that, what you see here is what I have in motion even online vids have it completely clear. I'm running of a 5090 with everything set to the highest.

https://m.youtube.com/watch...

CrimsonIdol48d ago

Ah I see. Well if you have a 5090 then I'm guessing are you're probably getting quite a high frame rate (I'm guessing hitting that 120 fps max), which will make a difference too, since the RT samples in the reflections accumulate temporally. I'm on a 3080 so I'm keeping my frame rate around 60-75 at 4K, and the low sample/high noise of the RT is definitely apparent… particularly on moving cars at night time I've noticed the most (makes sense given highest contrast between light and dark) DLSS amplifies the noise too, it's the big thing that sticks out as low fidelity when the rest resolves nicely

CrimsonIdol48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

Just had a chance to watch this on my 4K monitor now. Do you not see the blurriness of the reflections in relation to everything else in motion? Like it's definitely better and less noisy than it is for me at 60fps with quality DLSS but it's still pretty bad compared to how crisp the screen space/cubemap ones were when driving about. fine when you stop for a second but driving around you're rarely stopped so it's near constant muddy reflections.
