On the main Horizon homescreen in Atmosphere or SX OS, hold R, and launch a game, and keep holding R while you choose the profile, until you get to the homebrew screen. You'll see that it's not in applet mode anymore, and GTA 3 will launch just fine.
That’s what I was hoping for, but it didn’t work like that for me. After going through the bullshit to reformat my sdcard from exfat to fat32 (I did that think maybe that was my issue. That was a horrible mistake), I ended up nuking my card, because my emunand didn’t work and my saves (using sx save manager or jksave) wouldn’t transfer over. I’m now using atmosphere and starting new.

If they are installed with a generic title installer, yes they would work fine but games installed via the built-in installer when you click on the Album do not work. It has been a well-known fact that SX OS applies a specific patch to games installed via that installer that unfortunately does not allow them to be launched in other CFW because only SX OS uses that patch. Here is an example from an actual SX OS user

Works fine for me. Most installed through the main installer. including the fist release of sxos...
