The physical version of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition for #NintendoSwitch will be available in stores on February 11th!
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
Let’s take a gander at the prospect of mobile gaming in 2024.
"Requires online download". What a pointless release if the content isn't on the cartridge and you're just buying glorified plastic DRM.
You have a physical format in the box, put the bloody game on it you tools 🙄
Faaaaaaantastic! I think my wallet will have a “glitch” though.
I can’t believe Rockstar couldn’t fit the whole game in one single cartridge. Will we need to download the latest firmware to access the download from the Nintendo store?
I will give it a miss. Too much of a half baked port. Should have been possible to make it better on Switch - we have seen over the years what can be done and this m even with the fixes, still feels a missed chance to have a decent GTA experience on Switch. Better sticking to the Saints Row ports IMO.
Nah to download the games I am good if all the games were on one cart I would consider it also the trilogy is plagued with bugs no matter what platform. For right now I am happy with the trilogy I own on PS2 and OG Xbox they may look dated but they are still fun to play.
