Hey everyone, here are a few corrections to the script that a few people have pointed out so far. I'll update the list if anything else comes up: - The texture I said was water in GTA 3 is actually a pool cover. I was 50/50 here, but as it looked different to the pool cover in Asuka's courtyard I thought it was water. It looks odd either way - Unreal Engine wasn't responsible for the cartoony visuals as other non-cartoony games were made in unreal. Roblox also doesn't use Unreal. This came from a ScreenRant article following the October trailer last year and I carried their error forward. -When I said GSGs were fighting back the cartoony visuals of Unreal I should have said "when they ported the original game into Unreal everything was too clean". Rich Rosado said this in the FTW USA Today interview I mentioned -DLSS isn't a lighting effect -This isn't really a correction, but when I was describing Tommy I said he was an "ageing gangster", not an "Asian gangster" Cheers!

Just to think they could have done each game at the 20th anniversary, kept the hype going for a few years with maximum quality control for each release. Then at the end release it all as a trilogy package. But instead they rushed it to release, these aren't even acceptable as a throwaway. If this whole package costed 10 dollars it wouldn't be the biggest deal, but they charged AAA price for this mess of a release and took away the originals from the consumer.

There was never a chance for this to be good and I'll explain why. The trilogy's original code on PS2 was already quite sensitive and simple, small edits could break it. The first problems arrived with the PC versions. It seems like the ports are based off old prototype builds, they then slapped some of the PS2's code on top of it along with some exclusive tweaks... needless to say, this didn't work out too well. This is why you have mods like SilentPatch that fixed a ton of issues. The Xbox ports seem to have the same problem but the dev team definitely spent much more effort to "hide" the somewhat broken source code, they also enhanced some minor stuff carefully without breaking anything further, resulting in decent ports. Some years later, Grove Street Games is given the source code of the already buggy PC ports to build mobile phone ports and they completely destroyed the games as expected because they have modified everything wrecklessly. Especially the infamous San Andreas "remaster" that was also on the PS3/360. GSG learns nothing from the past and uses the already beyond broken mobile ports as a base for DE with catastrophic results. I think it's a miracle the games run at all.

But the fact is there were 1000s of bugs unfixed in the database, if it wasn't a 100% reproducible crash the bug wasn't getting fixed.

The saddest thing to me is that for many younger players and future generations who never played the original versions this will be their first experience of these classic games. And quite possibly also their last if they're not willing to involve themselves in retro game collecting, emulation or piracy.

You can still play San Andreas' Xbox 360 version if you buy the original Xbox disc and use it on Xbox One/Series X. It acts as a physical version key of the HD version and downloads that version from the store. Besides that all 3 originals are easy to play on an Xbox 360 since they're backwards compatible on there. I know that's a less common situation but it's a good way to experience the better versions

In this case I think the audio was more of a problem. They didn't have the original audio recordings (from the voice actors etc) anymore so there was no option but to cut it into pieces and maybe use some audio filters. It's like all these tasks, even though bound to never be as good as the original, could have been completed much better with more time, but it was all so rushed which made it 10x worse.

Thanks for creating this video! I appreciate the time and effort you put in to provide context regarding how Rockstar messed these games up for those of us wanting a hit of nostalgia. I’m currently considering getting used 360 versions of San Andreas and GTA IV to play on Series X. I was disappointed to find out that Original Xbox versions of GTA III and Vice City however are not playable on Series X 😕

I think there was a missed opportunity to somewhat streamline Catalina's model in both 3 and SA. the difference between their two models in each game was always jarring, and they should've taken the opportunity to either go with the 3 look (my personal preferred model for her) or the SA look, but instead they made the differences much more pronounced.

Agree with everything here, except the fact that Tont Hawk's Pro Skater is a basically a remake, as in its obviously running on a new engine and code in comparison to the original PlayStation version. The problem with the trilogy is that they simply ported over the old code from the early 2000s and didn't improve it whatsoever, alluding to what you've mentioned how everything feels out of place and wrong.

The cars had weird gravity physics that would make them constantly bounce slightly until eventually it stops you in your tracks.

Pro Skater is a beautifully remade game by a larger studio with AAA games and experience under their belt. That being said it also helps that it's a very small game in scope, there's so much less to it so it can be polished really well, and most of the maps had already been remastered for Xbox 360 by Robomodo so they just needed new textures and lighting. Either way, Activision gave Vicarious Visions the time and money to polish the ever loving fuck out of THPS1+2 just like they did with the Crash Bandicoot trilogy and I absolutely believe they have a plans for at least a THPS 3 remake in the future, dependent on just how much of the studio is contracted to working on Warzone & CoD assets.

Great video! I think you hit the nail on the head with the GPS, the player was encouraged to memorize their surroundings in the original trilogy. I remember this being a huge plus when years later I would bond with people I just met having realized we share a love for these games and know each and every nook and cranny. With the first step into the HD era with GTA IV, I do see how the developers would think the introduction of far more complex maps justified the GPS system. The original trilogy maps on the other hand were the perfect size where at first they would seem a little overwhelming (especially back then) but quickly become recognizable. Because you had a destination point and no wayfinder, that meant you had to observe for key locations and landmarks which aided in learning the map. At the time of GTA III this also blew my 8 y/o mind with what seemed to me like 'real life' detail. I think it may have been Rockstar's way of getting the player to appreciate the work that went into the games back then. The games were so rich in witty billboards, posters and of course playing off of real world locations so of course Rockstar would want a way to proudly display their dominance over the competition back then!

Grove Street Games had absolutely zero reason to be the ones doing the definitive editons they couldnt even do the mobile ones well

In a weird way, having to rely on a map and not having a waypoint was kinda fun. It was like real life during that time where you actually had to either memorize the route or look at a map. I guess I can see both sides of the argument.

Awesome video. I will steer clear. Thanks. Subscribed. Gooing to watch some of your other videos, great presentation.

Remember reading comments with people defending the soundtrack cuts, claiming songs like Billie Jean would be «too expensive» for Rockstar to renew the license on… Come on.

21:27 little correct here. The footage used doesn't show a bug at all. The save icon disappears because at this point in the game Cesar calls you to tell about Smoke moving drugs across San Andreas. When that happens you automatically accept the missing putting you on "mission mode" and in the process disables saves. This is intended and happens in all versions from PS2 to Definitive.

I was one of those people who missed out on these games as I didn’t own a console in time so when I heard this was an upcoming title, I was excited to finally get to play through these timeless pieces. Heartbreaking to see it’s a shallow reflection of the originals….

I'm surprised you didn't mention the Police Maverick in Vice City that constantly changes colors every time it spawns instead of having the regular green, but I guess that's just the tip of the iceberg. I also remember the Jetpack controls in San Andreas being completely fucking broken playing with a controller on PC. Fantastic video, great work

Ima be honest I bought this and beat it in order, it was never about the graphics or gameplay it’s the story and nostalgia and I got that and for that I enjoyed it 👍🏽👌🏽

My favorite feature from the whole Trilogy is that checkpoints and markers emit actual light.

The best thing about this trilogy is that it healed me. I have since and will never pre-buy a game again. That alone should advertise this trilogy. It is clear that it is poor advertising but an honest one.

The fact that they lost the original assets and yet went and continue going mercilessly after modders hard work says everything you need to know about Rockstar's management.

It's funny you should mention the GPS. On one hand it was really annoying having to constantly look at the map, but on the other hand, it forced you to really learn the map and be able to navigate by landmarks. You had to really pay attention to the world, instead of focusing so much on the minimap telling you where to go. I'm not sure how well it would work with massive games like GTA V, though.

In GTAO you can really notice the effect of the GPS. A lot of people - despite having a lot experience - drive like headless chickens only following the purple/yellow line even though there are obvious shortcuts you should have learned after 500 hours of playing the game. Sometimes this is even detrimental, because the GPS may lead you to the wrong location, ie. a bridge above the objective (which you can sometimes see even from far away if you know where the roads are going). Of course it helps new players get around the map faster without much hassle and thus is a really good feature to have, but blindly relying on it can be quite a problem in the long run.

Cyberpunk had a whole redemption arc over the course of 2 years. It’s hard to believe how little Rockstar cares about the trilogy that put them on the map.

I’ve played the three games back to back recently. It’s astonishing how little they did to improve on the games. Yes, I think the gameplay feels nicer on 3 and VC, especially since you can restart missions in an instant. San Andreas though feels so rough and it’s actually worse at times. The RC plane mission?

This is such a well done video man! I am a long time GTA fan. And I played them all since each was launched as a kid. Religiously. And I have years of GTA modding experience.

Do you think that there will ever be fixes done to these games?

A lot of those assets in the mall are Unreal marketplace assets which can be bought by anyone and used in any commercially released game. The jewelry store for example is 31 dollars USD to purchase. I sympathize with Grove Street because they were waaaay out of their depth and clearly did not knowing UE4 very well (the post process volume rain for example is horrific, the lack of using exponential height fog in the initial release, unsightly AO implementation), but this mess is clearly due to poor management by Rockstar and they are the ones who deserve peoples wrath. Although instead they likely got bonuses for this because as of Feb 2022 this monstrosity has sold 10 million copies.
