IGN : Check out some side-by-side comparisons from Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition and the original games to see how much the graphics have been updated for the 2021 release.
GTA The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition has received a graphical upgrade; here's how it compares to the original.
Surprised they kept at it. Since Take 2s CEO keeps yapping so much B's I figured they'd leave it as is. They do look nice, even tempted to get em myself now.
Does the graphical update fix things like the AI produced signs that aren't even in English?
Worse still though, it appears as though The Trilogy has been abandoned by Rockstar and Take Two Interactive.
By today's standards, I'd argue that being half assed, having a couple patches, and being abandoned and ultimately left still half assed is infact up to standards.
Yesterday I watched a YouTube video that said the new Netflix iOS/Android versions have a series of visual improvements that significantly improve it and bring it much closer to the vision and mood of the original games.

The Definitive Editions of GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas look better than ever according to fans
I've checked it out and there's a toggle there for original lighting when that's on you get the sun saturation back orange hues of San Andreas and tons more atmosphere in vc.
Seems to be a huge factor you lose dynamic lights and the overly out of the box he engine feel and the whole thing seems more artistically driven.
I hope this comes to the actual console and ps release eventually
Better to enjoy the games on PS2 least they weren't a pile of shit.
Out of curiosity what is the issue with this trilogy. I was looking to buy it cause san andreas is still my favorite and I've been itching for it. Is it broken?
The put little effort into the remaster. It's more of a port than anything. The graphics are barely any better while the colors make it look kinda cartoony
Ok. This is better than that other comparison video from earlier today. I like what I see but still contemplating on buying this.
That’s a pretty big difference. Looks good!
Expecting this for a while
Hard pass, even if it was for free I wouldn't take it. The Trilogy should have been made using at least the GTA V engine. Modders on PC can do a better job and it wouldn't cost a cent 🤣
Looks like a big improvement to be honest.
