GTA: The Trilogy Pulled From PC Storefront Due to Glitches

GTA: The Trilogy has been pulled from the PC storefront due to glitches, with the game experiencing numerous bugs and frame rate drops.

Orchard1658d ago

There were 'rumors' online that the source files to the games were included in the PC version in a (decryptable) .pak file. Rockstar have now stated that it was made unavailable to play and purchase due to files being unintentionally included in the game:

It will probably get shared around if some already had the files, and then edited to make the game better. There's supposedly already a team working on multiplayer for SA.

More like hot coffee files and the old radio tracks... script files aren't source code...

2k: Holliday season people, put thos game out now!!!!!!! NOOOOWWW!!!!

SullysCigar1658d ago

Poor form, Rockstar. What's the matter, not enough money?!

galgor1658d ago

It's like going to the shop and paying for a sandwich, having a taste, sensing it's not right, and then the shop says no you can't have that any more because we did zero amounts of quality control. And they tell you this via email. In your spam folder.

Rockstar can piss right off for everything about this release.

This was a pure nostalgia play intended to make a quick buck. You could tell from quality of the remaster in the trailer they never intended to put much effort into the project. It would have cost them more but a developer similar to Bluepoint could have worked wonders with this trilogy and it would have tempted me to put money into it.

jeromeface1657d ago

Some of us wanted the old games on modern platforms with better controls.. that's what we got. What you're asking for is something like the final fantasy 7 project that's taking years... no thanks.

Popsicle1657d ago (Edited 1657d ago )

No I’m not talking about an FF7 Remake type project. I’m talking about something similar in quality to Destroy All Humans or perhaps even similar or slightly lesser quality than Demon Souls. Not an entire reimagining of the franchise.

If you want to charge me money for a product that I already purchased 20 years ago, then I personally need something of quality in return. Otherwise I will play these games on my OG Xbox if I am searching for a nostalgic rush. If you are willing to part with your money for a change in button layout then that’s your personal preference and that’s ok. As for me, there are just too many games of quality out there that I have yet to fully experience.

Surprised they kept at it. Since Take 2s CEO keeps yapping so much B's I figured they'd leave it as is. They do look nice, even tempted to get em myself now.

Does the graphical update fix things like the AI produced signs that aren't even in English?

Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition is Still Not up to Standard Two Years Later

Worse still though, it appears as though The Trilogy has been abandoned by Rockstar and Take Two Interactive.

By today's standards, I'd argue that being half assed, having a couple patches, and being abandoned and ultimately left still half assed is infact up to standards.

VenomUK892d ago (Edited 892d ago )

Yesterday I watched a YouTube video that said the new Netflix iOS/Android versions have a series of visual improvements that significantly improve it and bring it much closer to the vision and mood of the original games.

That's just a f****** insult. They need to release that patch for console/PC asap.

Chard892d ago

If this gets applied to the Steam/console version then I’ll consider getting it

Cacabunga893d ago

Cash grabs have rarely been tuned

1nsomniac892d ago

It was beyond garbage. But we’re all over it now right? like it never happened!

anast892d ago

It's was supposed to be a mobile game.

This is what happens when you farm something out to the wrong people.

Wow, Looks Like The Busted GTA Trilogy Is Better On Mobile

The Definitive Editions of GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas look better than ever according to fans

-Foxtrot896d ago

Probably because it looked like it was made for mobile

Profchaos896d ago

I've checked it out and there's a toggle there for original lighting when that's on you get the sun saturation back orange hues of San Andreas and tons more atmosphere in vc.

Seems to be a huge factor you lose dynamic lights and the overly out of the box he engine feel and the whole thing seems more artistically driven.

I hope this comes to the actual console and ps release eventually

Knightofelemia895d ago (Edited 895d ago )

Better to enjoy the games on PS2 least they weren't a pile of shit.

shinoff2183895d ago

Out of curiosity what is the issue with this trilogy. I was looking to buy it cause san andreas is still my favorite and I've been itching for it. Is it broken?

PhillyDonJawn895d ago

The put little effort into the remaster. It's more of a port than anything. The graphics are barely any better while the colors make it look kinda cartoony
