About this deal

Do you think Red Dead Redemption or GTV IV will ever see the light of day on Switch? Let us know in the comments below.

And that's really the long and short of it. Yes, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition is better than it was. Of course it is. It launched in an absolute shambles. This is all to celebrate the 20th anniversary of GTA 3, and other events will also be happening as part of the party: GTA Online will have special clothing, liveries, and surprises to discover, as well as "unusual activity" in San Andreas. To prepare for launch, we will begin removing existing versions of the classic titles from digital retailers next week." Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas: Five years ago, Carl ‘CJ’ Johnson escaped the haze of Los Santos, San Andreas...a city tearing itself apart with gang trouble, drugs, and corruption. Now, it's the early 90s. CJ’s got to go home - his mother has been murdered, his family has fallen apart, and his childhood friends are all heading towards disaster. On his return to the neighborhood, a couple of cops frame him for homicide, forcing CJ on a journey that takes him across the entire state of San Andreas, to save his family and to take control of the streets in the next iteration of the series that changed everything. Of course, there is the question of whether the Switch 2 will be able to run the game. You’d imagine not, as I’m sure GTA 6 will push the PlayStation 5 and Xbox to their limits, but then I also would’ve said The Witcher 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2 were impossible for the original Switch and one of those has already happened.Vice City has crashed on me more times than I can recall. If the source material wasn't as good as it was, most of us wouldn't have been so forgiving. The only other game that has come close to this level of sloppiness was Pokémon Scarlet/Violet. And for those interested in the half-assed "physical" release, you're looking at about 12.1GB in "updates". 1GB for GTAIII, 5GB for Vice City (which is unplayable without), and 6.1GB for San Andreas. The latter is particularly ironic, because the "update" alone is bigger than the entirety of Vice City (how?). The GTA Trilogy will release later this year. We'll update you when we have a more exact release date! The second major issue that we had at launch involved an awful draw distance combined with vehicles that would materialise out of nowhere, making driving feel like a real chore. Add some serious scenery pop-in to this mix and you had a visual mess to contend with. The poor reception of the Trilogy DE might be a reason behind that decision. #GTAIV #RDR1— Tez2 (@TezFunz2) July 4, 2022

Yomerodes thank goodness all my remnant traces of "Nintendo faithful" status likely went out the window the moment I became a simultaneous owner of TWO Vitas.😄Well, as of right now, the trilogy has reached version 1.07 through a series of patches and updates, and sitting down to spend some time with all three the results so far are fairly reasonable. I've since moved on to GTA III, which I have been enjoying a lot less, mainly because sprinting doesn't even seem possible (?!) and the controls/movements are more tanky. I've only played the opening mission(s) of San Andreas, and it fares a lot better, but I've hardly played that yet. Again, this is all stuff that should never have been a problem in the first place but, if we're to let bygones be bygones, combining these small wins with the frame rate and pacing improvements you've got an experience that is much improved over the dog's dinner we first sat down to. These improvements apply to all three games, although in terms of slight stutters and blurry effects, San Andreas does still chug here and there. The Trilogy will include GTA 3, GTA: Vice City, and GTA: San Andreas, and will feature improved graphics and modern gameplay enhancements while keeping the "classic look and feel" of the original games.
