Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition (PS5) Review - CGMagazine

Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition is a relic of its time. A relic that was better left unearthed.

Ouch. This is what happens when you sign of a lazy bugfest.

Rockstar just got CD Projekt REKT

[Rebel_Scum]

This trilogy is more of a low effort remaster, poorly ported and badly optimsed mess than a bugfest.

They had one job... there's a vibrant community of GTA modders out there that have all released mods that blow this remaster out of the water, and instead of hiring them, and making those mods official, they hire these guys on to slap some overpriced garbage together. Same with GTA5, there's mods out there that are better than any remaster R* has ever released on any system.

[JustSomeGuy94]

I'd say a little harsh but not by much, the originals feel much better to play to me.

And the way the empty grass and sidewalks look doesnt hold with the graphic "upgrade". Empty spaces looked much better with PS2 graphics and they should have added some clutter to address it (weeds, litter, etc)

[MadLad]

It's like they ported over the assets to UE4, used some sort of AI to scale up the textures, through in some new lighting and after effects, and called it a day.
Would explain why so many character models look like they're made from playdoh.

GTA trilogy the definitive cash-grab edition...

[XxSPIDEYxX]

But.....they gave CyberPunk a 7.5. This is such a reach.

[EazyC]

Two wrongs etc...

[TheGoodestBoi]

So GTA is comparable to Cyberpunk afterall

[XxINFERNUSxX]

It's just plain 💩💩💩

[Sayai jin]

Seems to be adequate consensus on this remaster.

[Elda]

LOL! What a score.

[Pyrofire95]

When you base your entire port off of a buggy mobile port of some other port this is all you can really expect.

[Aussiesummer]

Reminds me of silent hd collection....screwed.

[MadLad]

The sad part being that the dev porting Silent Hill didn't have any of the release code. Just a buggy prerelease build.
They actually had to rebuild the game from a late alpha build with a short development window

Rockstar had all the time in the world to handle a release like this properly. Instead they handed it out to a low effort 3rd party who just crapped out a similarly low effort product.

[EazyC]

Jesus, you have to wonder...how many failures does AAA gaming need before they change tack? Or are we just supposed to lap up steaming piles of shit that's being thrown at us?

[Agent75]

It’s laughable that this can sell for £50 tops in the UK. Finished GTA 3 and Vice City on PS2 all those years ago, but not San Andreas. The graphics comparison against the original versions on PS2 made me chuckle, right down to missing grass and bushes etc. Bugs and fixes aside, it’s a £29.99 or less game. But as per usual, enough idiots will pay it, which is why PS5 games sell for £70+ and even PS4 games have risen by £10 from £50 to £60.

[Nintentional]

I’m personally having fun with San Andreas on the Switch. I remember playing the Xbox version on my 360 around the time the game first released and thinking the game was ugly af then and it’s ugly af now, but the soundtrack, the hilarity in the gameplay and the characters are what hold my attention long enough to enjoy my time with it.
