    305 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of the game remains engaging and nostalgic, capturing the essence of the original experience. However, numerous technical issues, particularly with mission progression and vehicle controls, significantly detract from the overall enjoyment, leaving players frustrated and often unable to complete key missions. While the graphics and storyline are praised, the frequent glitches and bugs, especially in missions like "Robbing Uncle Sam" and "Black Project," hinder the immersive experience.

    • “The game has the best graphics and story, and playing this on mobile is amazing.”
    • “Loved the story; it never gets old!”
    • “I love CJ and the story mode.”
    • “The only thing I've found, which I really hope gets fixed so I can go further, is that when trying to do the mission where Mike Toreno is kidnapped, when coming out of the airport the red marker disappears, which I've found a workaround for, but then when you get to the pleasure domes, the cutscene crashes.”
    • “I love GTA, but it's been super glitchy and although I had a poor time, I still tried playing it, but the last straw was when I tried the mission 'Black Project' and once I entered the red portal thingy at the end with the jetpack, the screen turns black and I am then met with a still screen of Carl just standing there.”
    • “I'm stuck on the mission where you have to go to the 3 ambulances and see which one has the guy in it... I've completed it 4 times but every time I bring the ambulance to the destination the game freezes... this is the only mission that has that problem so I can't go any further.”
