PlayStation: Controversial GTA game lands in Sony’s Game Pass alternative

With PS Now, Sony has effectively rolled out its own alternative to Xbox Game Pass for PlayStation players. Once a month there are new games for the gaming subscription – and this time a real scandal from last year has made it into the library.

GTA: Vice City – PS Now players can now play the reboot

As Xbox Game Pass continues to gain popularity, Sony doesn’t seem to be hitting the ground running with its in-house alternative called PS Now, despite the fact that the two services are very similar. Both offers give their subscribers access to a library of games that is updated once a month. Old games disappear from the subscription, others are added.

In February, PS Now subscribers can look forward to 4 new games:

• Little Big Workshop
• Through the Darkest of Time
• Death Squared
• GTA: Vice City – The Definitive Edition

Especially in the last game, some players should make big eyes. Because not only did the complete GTA trilogy not appear until November 2021, it primarily took care of it shortly after the start for an unbelievable amount of criticism. The revised version of the GTA classic suffered from all kinds of nasty bugs – and thanks to expired music licenses, players also have to do without some songs from the old games (source: spieletipps).

The new edition of the GTA games mainly offers graphical improvements – good to see in the official trailer:

The price may be higher now. Price from 02/11/2022 1:45 p.m

GTA Remaster is the worst game in months

With the release of the revised GTA games, publisher Take-Two has done itself no favors – even if company boss Strauss Zelnick sees it differently. This is particularly evident in the disastrous user ratings on Metacritic. The user score of the PC version is currently 0.6 out of 10 possible points – a colossal failure (source: Metacritic).

The new edition of the GTA-Trilogy leads the flop 10. But the other 9 games in the list couldn’t exactly cover themselves with glory at the end of 2021 either:

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City – The Definitive Edition brings a real scandal from last year to the PS Now games library this month. Many errors have since been ironed out by the developers, but the game still doesn’t have a good standing with the community.
