Some of the issues fans take with the game are very common among all the releases of the games. The first of which is the many bugs and glitches that players are experiencing with Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy. These range from minor graphical hiccups to the worst offenders causing crashes and other major problems. Other issues are with the poorly remastered models, which make characters look rather silly or off-putting. There’s a lot that fans have been frustrated with regarding the release of this game.

It comes as no surprise that this release has resulted in users review-bombing the game on websites like Metacritic. The PC release of the GTA Trilogy is scoring at a 0.6 on the site, while the PS5 version is peaking at a 0.9 score. Other platforms that host the game have also posted similarly low scores, the lowest being 0.5 on the Xbox One and Series X.
There have been no critic reviews yet, with these low scores being posted by at least over 2000 users on each platform. With all of these user scores, it makes it one of the worst scored open-world games on Metacritic, until the critic reviews get posted to the site. Many of these reviews highlight the same issues that fans have had, in that a remaster of PS2-era games should theoretically be easy, but this release is proving to be one of the worst games of the year.
With such a negative reception at launch, some gamers are comparing the release of this Grand Theft Auto game to a similar open-world game, Cyberpunk 2077. Both games suffered from incredibly buggy launches that garnered similar reactions from fans. While Cyberpunk 2077 is in a somewhat stable state according to the executives, it’s a question of whether the trilogy can do the same. Hopefully, the developers will be able to bring those promised updates to the game sooner rather than later.
