looks like a Switch game. Good for ppl who only own it I guess.

Switch is my main console despite owning a PS4 and a One X. Are we really going to spew graphics garbage on a game like this? These games aren't meant to be cutting edge, and they're not.

 

[Skifi28]

If this is from docked, I fear for the resolution on portable mode. Might just be a new record.

 

[Gordon Freeman]

In the last few weeks I completed Crysis 1-3, Dusk, Dying Light and other ports on my Switch.

This doesn’t even come close to these great ports. Oof.

Should have just ported the PS2 originals on Switch. UE4 does not play nice with the Switch hardware so these ports were doomed no matter who was porting them.

 

[Superwave]

Looks better than what we've seen so far imo - more muted and natural. Much less "Sims", like has been pointed out.

 

[Rob_27]

I'm game. It's already downloaded ready.

I can play it in bed if I want. Suits me.

GTA Trilogy Demake Edition​

 

[Scotty W]

Not sure if I want to play these again. I might give GTA 4 a try if they fix the car physics, though.

 

[ManaByte]

Is the MC black ( arms ) or white ( face ) ?

can’t wait for the switch version. This will be my first gtas

I feel sorry for anyone experiencing these as their first GTA. Completely neutered of the Houser offensiveness that made GTA what it was, all so Rockstar doesn't trigger "modern audiences". It'd be like watching a censored Blazing Saddles or History of the World as your first exposure to Mel Brooks.

 

[DaleinCalgary]

Might be worth $10 to play old retro games.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

I want to see how it runs/looks on Yuzu. Just because I'm curious. Will wait for videos, since I don't want to buy this one.

 

[Kacho]

Those are some horrifically blurred out screens. If you don’t play exclusively in handheld mode RIP.

 

[Deerock71]

Despite the wailing and gnashing of teeth and the rending of garments and the dumping ashes on their heads, the Trilogy currently sits at number 10 on the Switch's sales charts. Now just to wait for the worm to eat the base of the vine to deny you any shade.

 

[Miles708]

This conversion looks terrible even accounting for the Switch capabilities.

This would acceptable maybe on PSP.

 

[MrHydra933BR]

Looks good enough.

 

[MastaKiiLA]

It should be identical to the other versions, save for resolution. This is not a remake.

 

[Soodanim]

Blur aside, visually it's an awkward mix of old and new that doesn't work for me. Not a fan. I hope the performance is up to scratch.

 

[Portugeezer]

Maybe OK in portable mode.

To me, it almost seems as if softening up some of those harsh edges might actually improve the look of the game.

 

[dotnotbot]

Who's doing the port? I assume it's a half arsed outsource.

Same studio responsible for disastrous PS3/X360 San Andreas port. They were recently renamed from War Drum Studios to Grove Street Games.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS3/X360)

"What the hell was this? I guess they wanted to do a remaster of San Andreas and just figured the mobile version was good enough, but, like I said, when you do a...

crappygames.miraheze.org

Low quality visuals are just a beginning, I expect ton of performance issues and bugs on all platforms. Don't preorder.

Grove Street Games. Formely known as War Drum Studios.

They have done iOS/Android versions of GTA III, Bully, GTA Chinatown Wars, San Andreas, Vice City, Max Payne. They also done the PS3/360 version of San Andreas.

Its over

 

[Marty-McFly]

Where do you honestly play GTA then? I have to ask. The office? I have to think these times are so few between you could just use xcloud and play the superior version still.

Before going to sleep. Early weekend mornings. Fishing trips at the cabin. Flights.

I have no doubt this will be like all the Switch ports I play, with everyone on the internet telling me how bad it looks but when I play on the 6.2 inch screen I can't tell much of a difference or at least big enough that I'd care about.

Good powerful Nintendo Hardware died with the GameCube. Deal with It. It was also my

Thankfully. Iwata, the former president of Nintendo of Japan is no longer in charge of hardware decisions.
His philosophy has always been "Weak hardware = good games."
The switch was Iwata's last console.
Now that he's gone Nintendo is free to go back to "Now you're playing with power."

 

[Lognor]

Yeah, about what I expected. I wonder how well the Switch version will do. Do people really want to be able to play GTA on the go (with these types of cut backs)? I'm not a fan of GTA so I won't be buying any version.

 

[Ezquimacore]

People saying looks horrible on switch like this shit of a remaster doesn't look like Roblox on every platform. Man Rockstar is trash these days.

 

[nordique]

Looks good to me. Surprised people are shitting on it

Nice update from the ps2 versions and in portable form.

Maybe my standards are low lol

Some people actually think if they shit on a game online they can hurt its sales, but this is going to be big on Switch regardless of minuscule squabbles.

If it outsells the other versions or even holds its own there is going to be some shakeups.

Tommy looking like a burn victim.

 

[Synless]

Looking at how minimal the upgrades seem to be, I don’t see how this shouldn’t run at 1080p docked and 720p undocked unless this dev is lazy as fuck and shitty at programming. It’s negligibly better looking than the OG versions.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Are there really people in here acting as if the remaster looked good? Stop kidding yourselves. Who cares if it looks blurry and low res on Switch (I can’t imagine that being the case), it’s hardly going to be a looker on any device.

 

[TheRealElvis]

will the reviews for the switch version be posted before thursday?

 

[justiceiro]

Looks like your regular UE4 port on switch.

 

[Draugoth]

I expected something bad and we got something even worse. Incredible.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Doesnt look much better than PS2 GTAs. It has improved lighting and AA and that's it.

The pic w Claude I thought was a standard pic from one of the other versions

Honestly it looks fine for the switch. None of these games are "lookers"

I'm sure they'll look fine on an oled screen while I'm gaming in bed

 

[nordique]

Looks like your regular UE4 port on switch.

There was that one snake game (the indie game) that looked pretty impressive for the switch (ue4) given the hardware

I think we should reserve critical judgment until we see how it runs in motion. I hope it runs good on switch.

That's what I plan on doing. I mean, I expect it to look pretty much the same in motion, maybe a little less sharp and smooth. Unless it's truly horrific I'll get it because portable GTA. If they strike out on Switch I'm not interested in sitting in front of my tv to play old GTA remakes.

 

[Kilau]

Doesn’t really matter what they look like, if the quality of life improvements aren’t up to snuff it won’t be worth touching.

 

[TireOnFire]

Doesn't look bad to me. Saint's row on switch was more than servicable so I count on this being better in that sense. If this can sell well on Switch, I can't wait for more Rockstar on the console

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

It'll look alright in portable mode.

in that case... its better get a gaming laptop to run the gta games

 

[bender]

The quality seems on par with the average Marty-McFly post.

 

[Holammer]

Looks fine.

The point of this game is to play better looking versions of the originals on the go.

Who's really going to sit infront of their TV's?

This is the PS5 version for reference.

Looks like Fortnite or a Robot Chicken parody.
PC versions gonna need a lot of mods

 

[TheBomb]

and will sell millions of copies

I'm down for digital and physical on Switch.

Physcial will require a download.

 

[Jsisto]

Looks fine for what it is. I’ll probably get it. It’s getting to the point where it’s humorous seeing people shit on Switch games as if there was ever the possibility it would be comparable to the other consoles. We’re okay with it and know what to expect or we wouldn’t be buying games on switch.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

Who's really going to sit infront of their TV's?
It looks like a slightly clearer game with severely outdated graphics?

Facts. Every experience with the Switch connected to the TV.

Man this is a terrible screenshot.

 

[Huevos de Oro]

As long as portable performance is alright, it's fine for their userbase I guess? I bought Amnesia for the switch and in portable mode it runs like rancid ass.
