I've seen some footage of it running on Switch and it looks fine, not as good as the other consoles, but fine. I've asked for it for Christmas because I almost got the whole way through San Andreas apart from keep burning to death in those riots at the end because I didn't take the time to do the fire truck missions, and remember making it to the end of GTA3 in Uni, but never quite managing to get the final mission done. I pissed away far too much time driving around listening to the radio in Vice City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can fix it like they managed to with the Outer Worlds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69MeDon Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) Yeah, I'm really glad I didn't pay 60 quid to buy the GTA Trilogy. Just playing SA on Gamepass and it's fine in the sense that I will probably keep playing it but I'd be super pissed off if I paid full whack for this. Especially considering the last game I paid for was Cyberpunk... I honestly don't know why I'm even surprised that this looks like Rockstar had a meeting and said "what is the absolute minimum amount of time and effort we can put into this and still justify charging £60 for it" given the way they've absolutley rinsed GTAV and Online.

Mr_Danger Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 It’s unsurprising but still a shame they haven’t treated it with a bit more love and care though, even Call of Duty remasters get more than the bare minimum. Like I said, the lighting upgrades and control upgrades make it playable for me but I’m on Gamepass and I’ll probably wait for the doubtless swift reduction before I get the full trilogy.

CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 The rain effect really is atrocious. I'm currently stuck on three missions on GTAIII - one because I need to drive a police car into a garage to rig it with bombs but the garage door won't open, another because I can't actually see what I'm supposed to be doing because of the sodding rain (I tried saving to advance time and clear the weather but starting the mission always puts me back at night time in the rain), and a third where I need to chase a speedboat but the only other boats that spawn nearby are those super slow luxury cruise type things which are nowhere near fast enough (the speedboat lad just zooms away and the mission fails within a few seconds). I'm having a bit of a rough time with it, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted November 12, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 12, 2021 I think I heard somewhere Rockstar had nothing to do with this and a third party dev put it together. Kind of ironic that they'll postpone their own mainline GTA titles to make sure they're finished but push these guys to rush this out in an apparently unfinished, or at least unpolished state to hit a deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Clearly just so wrapped up in finishing off GTA 6 they let one slip through the net right? Yeah? Any day now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Tommy! Posted November 12, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 12, 2021 Is there any chance of them putting GTA, the 60's packs and GTA2 out on switch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be more invested in seeing the often overlooked Chinatown Wars make its way to the console. I fully accept that I might need to take this rose-tinted glasses off here, but I still feel like it might be the best one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted November 13, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 13, 2021 I had Chinatown Wars on DS & PSP, and I loved the Controls. It was also nice how the map resembled the GTA3 map as well. I could find my way around pretty well. It is overlooked. That Deadmau5 station was pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Any idea how it plays on iPhone? Wouldn’t mind giving it a go and it’s only £4.49. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t control particularly well, for me at least. It’s better than nothing, but I would recommend playing it on DS or PSP if you have that option. You can get it for between £10 and £15 on eBay or for £15 at CEX. I hadn’t realised it was so reasonable, so I’ve just bought a copy myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
