Remember when that was a thing video games used to do? Since 2013, we have had zero new GTA games outside of ports and remasters, yet between 20, we had three, including arguably the best ever? To avoid upsetting people, I will not expand further on which game I think holds that title. I have a point with this, but can we just pause for a second. GTA 3, GTA: Vice City, and GTA: San Andreas came out in 2001, 2002, and 2004. It would be great if it hads received a proper 2021 triple-A polishing, but in some ways, it’s even better that it’s a bit of a mess. Here’s the thing though - this ‘trilogy’, if we’re calling it that, never looked that good.

But at the same time, is upgrade the right word? It looks smoother, and in some cases, a lot better - but in other cases the jank is off the charts, and the signs appear to have been ‘translated’ into modern graphics using machine learning, making for a bowtload of speling errrrrors. It’s not just the same game ported to new consoles - it has clearly received a considerable graphic upgrade. Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition has come under fire since its launch this week, and not just for having a name that’s way too long.
