Is this good now? (Without needing fan mods.)

I never played it on the original systems. I never heard Billie Jean at a certain point in the game. I don't know what other songs might be missing. All I know is I'm playing Vice City on the Switch and the game's a hoot. I have had it randomly crash a couple times, so I make sure to save often.

I wanted to post the vid but you already posted It.

Awful company they have like zero attention to detail.

Posted my review of Vice City in another thread.

So the game is still garbage after one year

Sure. I only played Vice City but yeah.

Another review 1 year on & history of the development. It’s a solid watch.

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

I knew that the remaster will be shit right from the beginning.

No previews, no real gameplay and especially no track list.

Biggest thing for me is lost trust for Rockstar proper.

Spending hours setting up the original and mods to get it playable on a modern PC only to be reminded how absolutely SHIT the controls were back then versus a soulless demaster?

Decisions decisions.

Shame that it wasn’t done in-house.

Damn, took them so long to finally make a little step in the right direction with artstyle. I wonder if they plan to include classic lighting setting on other platforms.

Yet they broke lighting and effects in Vice City so one step forward and some steps backwards… even San Andreas is not quite what it was lighting, fog, and atmospheric effects wise (lighting is also not area dependent anymore but in the PS2 games used to be different depending where you where in the game).

It's astonishing how little they care about these games and how much R* fucked this up. This is Blizzard-level of incompetence and ignorance.

[NeverYouMind]

Now a remake with production values like that would have been well worth $60 on its own.

 

[amigastar]

Too bad, it's not the full game with all missions and music

 

[The_Observer]

This is what these games deserved. What a shame that they didn’t care about them…

 

[havoc00]

Fuck this cop land mission in vice city

I could not agree more. It's so incredibly sad how these games where recreated and shipped without anyone at Rockstar, staying anything other than ship it. These games played a HUGE part of my life growing up and I really was hoping for a home run. Sadly, I don't think these games will be fully patched and I can't stand the Fortnite/ cartoon look of the games. I'll continue to enjoy these on the PS2/Xbox and PC with mods gets you 90 percent there.

Exactly this.

It actually hurt to see R* shitting something out like this. As if they really couldn't give any shit about these games whatsoever. Much like how Blizzard just shat out Warcraft 3 Reforged and called it a day.
