![]() "Remastering has always been a part of the strategy. And it does not jibe with what Take-Two’s Strauss Zelnick said in March about taking the time to do remasters correctly: They deserved proper care and attention for a quality remaster, not whatever…this was. These are three of the most popular, most beloved games in industry history. This is not a project that should have been done halfheartedly. That was a terrible, terrible move, and fans are rightly roasting them for it now, given the state of the game. Rockstar’s problem is that they tasked a mobile-based studio with remastering these three games mostly based on a mobile port, and as a result, the hardware doesn’t matter because the software has so many issues.įinally, perhaps the worst aspect of all this, something that elevates what Rockstar has done here to a new level, is the fact that they spent time hunting down player-made remaster mods and taking those offline, and then stopped selling the original versions of the game altogether, clearing the way for this remaster which is worse than any of them. How is that happening?Ĭyberpunk’s issue was that it leaned too hard into the PC version while ignoring consoles. People have commented that somehow PS3 ran GTA 5 better than a PS5 is running GTA 3. But GTA Definitive Edition? All the versions, all six, PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch are all performing badly for most players. Last gen consoles, especially base PS4 and Xbox One, were quite bad. Xbox Series X and PS5 playing upconverted last-gen versions were okay, not amazing. The PC version of the game actually ran and looked pretty great, even at launch. There’s also the broadness of the poor performance to consider. ![]() So, even if you bought the PC version, Rockstar is literally preventing you from playing it indefinitely. ![]() But Rockstar itself has taken the PC version of GTA down in order to remove files left inside it ranging from everything from unlicensed songs to proprietary company tools to the San Andreas Hot Coffee sex mod. Sony took Cyberpunk offline on the PS store, but you could still buy physical copies or play the digital version you already owned. What’s going on with the PC edition of the game right now is bizarre.
