About time. Pretty wild that the only way to play these monumental games on Playstation in the past decade has been the blurry old PS2 classic versions.

They totally took down the community made mods so they can bundle them into a thing and sell it right? I'm not expecting much from this, only way I would is if they completely revamped them and not just did what the mods were already doing.

The worst outcome out of all this for the Switch is, you get 1 Switch cartridge for 1 GTA game, then you need to download the rest of the 2 GTA games.

Meaning the worst thing I have to face is having to require internet download. :(

I remain sceptical there will be massive upgrades, even QoL stuff would probably break the games and doing that many games, fixing changing stuff, yeah don't see it. Probably super sharp with some nice water but if they really go far, I would like to be wrong. Personally just in it for the soundtracks and locales rather than game play which was bad at the time but hey, that was a long time ago, I actually played GTA then, still haven't bought V 😂

Oh man I replayed Vice City on PC last year for the nth time and I still love it, I hope this is true. I prefer how it plays so much more than the newer ones, hopefully it'll play the same as the originals.

I don't know if it's sacrilegious to say but I hope they add some better physics to them. It's really hard for me to go back to a city sandbox without some ragdoll. Which is why I love GTA 4 also.

Switch is the only system that matters here. Don't really care for playing it on home console.

I have the trilogy for steam but I can see myself getting this remaster for PlayStation

Glad I'm not the only one who doesn't want to go back to the PS2 type controls. I understand that updating the controls would make it a much larger project though.

Been dreaming of these on Switch for years. Hopefully we get Bully at some point too. I think I remember an ESRB rating for all of these plus Bully for switch a couple years back?

Explains all the DMCA takedowns they're issuing against mods that bring the old maps into new games, etc. and the weird phrasing around it.

Take-Two Issues Another Wave Of DMCAs For GTA Mods News

This news comes via prominent GTA mod repository LibertyCity.net. Mods confirmed to be the victim of DMCA takedowns include efforts to bring the settings of Bully, Manhunt, and GTA: Vice City into the engine of Grand Theft Auto V. Mods that don't feature content from older Rockstar games aren't...

I would honestly love this. Need to get on platinuming GTA:VC so I can redo these three remastered. (Please port the PSP ones if this does well)

Switch? Wow! This is unprecedented given the turmoiled relationship between Nintendo and Rockstar since the GCN days. Times have really changed.

Really can't see the gameplay of GTA3 or the keep CJ fit stuff being all that welcome in 2021. I think they would need overhauled, not just remastered.

lol I bought the trilogy like the other month because I really wanted to play San Andreas again.

And I'll buy these too...

Hopefully the remastering work will also include some gameplay improvements and QOL features because these games haven't aged well at all.

All I need, all I hope for is checkpoints in the missions and for the controls to be similar to gta v (don't want to be driving with the X button)

can they tidy up the controls without borking gameplay?
This is a really good question. I think a major overhaul probably wouldn't be possible without really changing the gameplay, but I'm not totally sure how much Rockstar might care about that. After all, they released the mobile versions with touchscreen controls as default and they're barely playable with those controls.

Please, Rockstar.

Don't fuck up like you did for the original PS4 releases and make this digital only. These games NEED to be something one can find on a shelf as a stocking stuffer/cheap gift. I can only imagine the lost sales by keeping them a ps store exclusive
