These games are not as great as I remember, well, III and San Andreas. I appreciate they were great for the time and I really enjoyed them then but now?
Putting the half hearted release aside, III has some very tedious repetitive missions and San Andreas feels long winded and a real chore to get to other areas. Vice City is far from faultless too however I think it’s the best out of the three in terms of characters, map and atmosphere (being a 80s kid I suppose there is a little bias there).
In terms of this “Definitive edition” As others have said it’s the mod community that is putting the devs to shame and this shouldn’t be happening. For all the advances in technology we should of gotten better than this and it says a lot that I was slightly surprised mainstream media reviews called Rockstar out .
I don’t know if any further updates are planned for these games but I’d shocked if there was anything substantial like better character animations, weapon handling/aiming/AI and stuff like that.
This could of been special and handled with time and care but no.
