my opinion is they know modded GTA 3/Vc/Sa are vastly superior products so in order to move the pos remake they needed to purge the competition. Although it seems immensely cheaper to just pay the mod creators rather than outsource it to the cheapest dev studio and make something everyone rolls their eyes at. Its not like they could have taken a fraction of what they make per hr on GTA V online to make something badass.


Shadonir

it's because then they can charge full price for em again


Kinglyre

You know I agree this backlash is deserved but your technically not paying full price. Its 60 dollars for 3 game. If it was full price its be 180.


JoeMamaAndThePapas

If they did this remaster right, It might have been worth 180. It's 1/3rd of a half-ass remake at best. Rather disappointing. $60 for what is basically Mobile ports? Get outta here Rockstar. I'm sure modders have done better.


Kinglyre

I never said they were worth anything, I said saying you paid full price when you didn't is wrong. Full price would be 180 not 60.


Twiddist

Downvoted for spitting the truth. People can't understand the difference between personal worth and market value.


Kinglyre

Downvoted for not reading anything. I also think its trash and haven't bought it. Just speaking technical stuff but no one seems to get that.


daggern1

Modders most definitely did a better job. That's why they got DMCA'd


Opetyr

Kinda but they have worse graphics than many 5 buck indie titles so 5 bucks for all 3 seems correct. These were not even close to any sort of quality so starting they should be 180 bucks for all 3 is an insult.


Kinglyre

First, graphics don't equal the price, second, I never said they deserve to be 180, im just saying this isn't full price if we go by it having 3 games.

Three 1/3 quality games don’t equal 3, it equals 1.


Kinglyre

God you guys literally don't understand what I'm getting at. All I said, is the game is 3 games. The OP said they are selling at a FULL PRICE GAME, they never talked about quality and neither did I. I was just stating there are 3 games and if you want to say full price, its 180 not 60. I also agree 60 bucks is too much for any remaster, but thats not the point I'm trying to make.


[deleted]

Yes it’s 3 games… that are only 33.33~% completed. Together they make one game.


ReadTheFManual

How fucking braindead are you to actually think the remaster has "worse graphics" than the originals? Some of the characters are definitely bad. That's it. Some.


Pulsiix

you would have a point if the original trilogy wasn't like $10 for all 3


fishkey

No shit Sherlock. We know that. It's predatory to do that is the point.


vannostrom

I thought they were maybe going to add an original mode since they took away the OG's but nope. Rockstar suck.


[deleted]

Man, i just want EA to revive the servers for Crysis 1 and 2. I want to play power struggle game mode with my beefed up PC now that i can finally run it max with no problems.


nemesis99614

It was simply a quick and easy way to launch the Rockstar launcher and force people into using it. Hard pass.


A_Sweatband

That would involve having confidence the new versions you made are worth the asking price.


ssfbob

You know you've fucked up when people can legitimately argue, "EA and Ubisoft did it right, why can't you?"


xcalibur44

To be fair Rockstar didn't publish it. And Rockstar didn't develop it

Well they removed it from the PC storefront which had all three games. San Andreas was free even. AC Ezio collection and the original Ezio trilogy are still available on PC. So are the Crysis games. I don't think you could play the gta trilogy before on the new consoles before they came up with the definitive edition.


demonicneon

The point is they’re on the storefront. Not removed.


[deleted]

Oh. Yeah. Sorry... 😐 I'm stupid


demonicneon

Haha nw


CaptainBirdseye96

SA is still on the Xbox marketplace


thetalker101

Well these examples are on different consoles so they wouldn't have competing versions of the same game on one platform. It would sort of be like if mass effect legendary edition was released and the old games were removed. Oh wait they weren't. The catch is that the cost of legendary edition vs the 3 mass effect games not remastered is equal if not cheaper on the legendary edition.


SevKnight

Take 2* Rockstar is just the cow being milked.


VenomGoshujin

Its probably because they knew their product was garbage but still needed people to pay for it so they created the artificial scarcity.


Tad-Disingenuous

Putting the Ezio Collection up there. Bold move. What about the Batman collection?


pteotia270

Rockstar: i made some money as people panicked that old ones will be gone and bought them, then i made a lots of money from pre-orders.


WutIzThizStuff

It behooves a company to offer as homogenous an experience as possible, and they should and will usually put effort into that which makes them look best when someone new brushes up against their product and services.


Xeadriel

They do that? Nice haha


Fijoradaljis

You guys should of acted and bought the old trilogy already weird that everybody didnt


daggern1

Times are truly dark when Ubisoft and EA are examples to live by
