this, this is what prevent me from pre-purchase it tbh.
If I can be sure it will be 60fps it would have been in my basket already.
right now so unsure that I better get it on computer ^^

Me too I want to know, Otherwise i will download it on My Series s (Because it doesn't have a Diskdrive)

 

[xdarkx]

I'm more interested in the things that are not mentioned (ie. will they changing any content to fit the modern climate).

Aahh... GTA Vice City, where punching a car that you rightfully own is illegal and cops beat you down for it.

And I don't know if it's just Vice City that does that.

I'm sure in real life in the cops saw you punching anything they'd not be impressed

 

[orangy57]

I can't tell if it looks awful or not. It kinda looks like an ad for a mobile game but then again the original games looked wayyy worse, even for their time

 

[Xzi]

Not even on Steam? Not surprised, but still disappointed. Will it support more than 60FPS? Also, I'm glad it's not just another mobile port but I really do not care for how shiny everything is.

According to leaks it looks like it'll be Rockstar launcher exclusive for just a couple months before coming to Steam. Kinda like RDR2.

Wish they had mentioned the soundtrack, but since they didn't I'm gonna assume it's been trimmed down compared to the original releases.

 

[WaffleRaccoon]

Excited! Idk if I should grab for Switch or PC

 

[landysmods]

Let's not judge too much before we see some actual gameplay. And if it's not up to the players standards, surely the modders will add their own improvements in time

 

[DudderButter]

$60 for Mobile Advertisement shaders? Hoo boy, Rockstar is really winning the ballpark against the modders...
Then again, I'm curious on what they fix but didn't mention.

Looks like trash, expensive and rumors that the game content will suffer "adaptations for the modern times" (not only the controls).

I don't see it as expensive though, it's 3 games in 1. What do you expect? Make it $10? If so, just buy the old versions while you can.

 

[ZeroFX]

I don't see it as expensive though, it's 3 games in 1. What do you expect? Make it $10? If so, just buy the old versions while you can.

low effort remasters should be 20 dollars at best

Also i have the old games for ps2 since ages (paid more than 10 dollars at the time ), and on steam already...

 

[Wavy]

Everything looks a bit tacky. I don't know. It looks fine I guess? But it feels a bit too cartoonish for a GTA game and the character models for GTA 3/VC look a bit too boxy and out of proportion for my liking.

I certainly wasn't expecting GTA 5 visuals, bit this just looks wrong IMO. Looks better than what I was expecting, though =p

 

[DodgyJudge]

We're talking about a company that makes billions each year. They could easily pumped up the models quality etc a lot more. Instead of making it look like they added a shader and changed some textures.

So to answer your pretty dumb analogy, I hoped for sandwiches and coffee.

Well i compared both and tbh the remaster do have way better model quality(fingers yeah!)and animation maybe you didnt see it but it will be the better version.

 

[Thescrewremover]

Whether the remaster be good or not, at least PC users would have stable ports of the 3D trilogy

It just pisses me off that motion sensor targeting is always exclusive to the Nintendo Switch?, I mean, I understand it's not on Xbox but why not on PS4 and PS5 as well?

Using the motion sensor sight is so much faster and more costly that it's hard to get used to analogs again.

Well, here's a hint.

Spoiler

The game is originally cartoonish IMO.

The game is originally cartoonish IMO.

I can see where you're coming from, but I just don't think it translates well to higher fidelity visuals.

 

[MultiKoopa]

this looks neat! Hopefully it's 60 fps on Switch too, since it's not 4K
and most importantly of all... they better not have messed with the non-gunplay physics on San Andreas, or any of the sequence breaking glitches

 

[Purple_Heart]

GTA 3 as example looked way more cartoonish during developement. This pic is of a mod based on early versions of the game.

I never played any GTA Games, but based on the "upgrade" comparison videos, I find it well done. Improved models and textures and effect, I think they look nice.
Of course it's not a PS5/XBX quality, because it's not a remake ! it's an upgrade. they could have just ported the old version with no improvement, or never re-release them and let you play old ugly games on emulators, but they didn't.
People, never happy... Just go play your old version then if you like it better, you probably already completed the games anyway, no need to do it again. I think it's good for new comers
