How does the DE hold up? Have they fixed the issues?

Well. I find it pretty good and it wakes up my nostalgia. I would have preferred a real remake but it does the job.

Yeah, I’d like to replay the classics again but is it really as broken as people made out?

If you are expecting Vice City in GTA V, you'll be disappointed. If you expect the games of your teenage time with a Marcia Cross lifting, that's good.

Nah, I knew they wouldn’t be like V. I’m more questioning the mechanics, bad bugs and performance etc.

No problem it works well. I did GTA 3 yesterday and that was nice. I just started Vice City and went straight to the Malibu Club.

Pros / cons
- Decent graphics, pretty cartoony [all games of the DE are like this]
- Low level of Effort, there are constant issues with things ingame, railings either had completely misplaced physics so if you think your going to drive between 2 sets of them, wrong. that invisible section has the collision physics. only half the railing has it.
- there are floating textures like leaves in places that there should be none.
- signs to help make the city more "lived in" where done with Ai up scaling and look horrible, some have spelling mistakes.
- Missing music. They straight up removed a bunch of songs from Vice City in particular simply because they did not want to pay the licensing fees.
- there are sections of the map where the ground has no collision so you can either fall through the map, or you'll stand under neath the texture because its not lined up with the collision.
- some missions are more buggy now then they were in the past.
- some npc models look horrible with the cartoony graphics.
the games are actually Re made MOBILE ports, which they ported over to actual consoles and stuff. some mobile game problems are there.

Ouch. Definitely not worth full price then. Thank you!

It’s…kind of fixed? You’re still better off playing the original PS2 copies or even emulating them on PSX2 but they still have a WAYS to go before I can say it’s acceptable
