One of the more interesting things here for GTA Trilogy Remastered here: this will have GTA5's modern controls.

If this all actually be fixed, that's when you might want to actually buy it.

On the Switch, it's a total mess and runs & looks worse than all of the others.

On PC last week on its release - it requires Rockstar Launcher and its servers to boot-up, so the demand by players broke the game, the servers, and the launcher. Broke the launcher so much, GTA5 PC/GTA Online PC and RDR2 and ANY other Rockstar Launcher-required PC version did NOT work for a few days.

The game had Hot Coffee, Source Code, and unlicensed songs still in there - so PC version got pulled for a few days, so they could remove this stuff & fix this mess.
