Didn’t RS hire new company in India to work on the remaster? Likely to save cost as much as possible. These games had many spelling issues on adverts and billboards not just poorly made new textures.
the thing is with the definitive editions, it was just a poor decision to get an experienced mobile developer to work on the remakes. If they got a more developed and established studio to make them it probably would’ve been better (and if they gave more money to the project)
Now. GTA DE is a Remaster but still. There’s Remasters out there which look like the thing on the very right. Also Take Two Interactive was part of the Mafia Remake.
“The difference between a company that sent their remaster to a side company that specialised in mobile ports Vs a company that made the original”
​
Why Take2 made that moronic choice I’ll never know, Should have given it to R* – you know, the ones who actually made the original and would have had the ORIGINAL CONSOLE VERSIONS TO WORK FROM INSTEAD OF THE SHITTY MOBILE PORTS TO PORT BACK TO A MODERN DAY FUCKING CONSOLE – But i guess it was to down to not effecting the cashflow of their little cash-cow in GTO.

Take2 really needs to kick “grove street games” to the curb after that bullshit.
The problem with GTA remastered collection is that *it was not even made by Rockstar*. It was made by a small mobile game developer with little to no experience with the kind of game GTA is. It was doomed from the start.
2, pointing out the value of the company for the first image and ignoring that same point for the second image, both games are under take 2 and take 2 are the decision makers
3, remaster to remake, very different things
4, ignoring the quality of the remaster for a moment, 3 GTA games have more value than 1 mafia game, you would have trouble finishing even 1 of those GTA games before the Mafia game which is pretty short
5, rockstar didn’t make the remasters, a second company was hired to do so, grove Street games, a mobile company, if your point of showing the value of the company was aimed at rockstar and 2k then it was still false equivalence
Gta definitive edition was one of my biggest VG letdowns of all time
Not excusing the first one, that’s terrible
But people still don’t know the difference between a remaster and a remake
Mafia was remade from the ground up. It’s a new game.

6.5 Trillion dollar company? Did Apple, Microsoft, and Saudi Aramco merge into one? All combined would be about 6.5 trillion market cap.
6.5 trillion dollars? Zimbabwean?
TIL that a mobile game company is valued higher than the GDP of all but 2 countries. I feel like OP might need to fact check a bit.

Have you seen the rain in the gta definitive? it’s like a buncha straws falling from the sky
When you don’t really need the money vs when you really need the money.
Grove street games is worth 6 trillion dollars?
A part of me goes that they would continue to work on the game but it sounds like they are cutting their losses.
Take is worth 14.2 billion not 6.5 trillion
Looks like angry E.T. lady is the way to go if it inflates your capital like that.
You idiots still trying to milk this shit?

GTA wasn’t made by Rockstar.
It was made by a small studio called Grove Street Games with like 20 people that make mobile ports of s GTA games.
Why she look like a sociopath who forgot her medicine
6.5 trillion dollars? Really? Also, one is a remaster, other is a rework.
I thought this was not supposed to be a shitpost.
Uhhh Rockstar isn’t worth anything close to 6trilli9m dollars lol
Now. GTA DE is a Remaster but still. There’s Remasters out there which look like the thing on the very right. Also Take Two Interactive was part of the Mafia Remake.
Grove street games IT WAS MADE BY GROVE STREET GAMES NOT ROCKSTAR AHHHHH

the definitive edition wasnt developed by rockstar it was some mobile devs
I like the idea of Rockstar having a higher valuation than Japan, the third wealthiest nation in the world.
Wait who’s worth 6.5 trillion
You do realize both games are owned by the same company, right?
I am almost convinced GTA trilogy remaster was made using AI upscaling.
What company is worth 6.5 trillion dollars
R* didn’t make it.
Funny how people forget that.
Yeah that’s what happens when you’re a company that doesn’t give a shit and can make money anyway versus a company that actually cares.
The problem with GTA remastered collection is that *it was not even made by Rockstar*. It was made by a small mobile game developer with little to no experience with the kind of game GTA is. It was doomed from the start.
And people still bought the first one. And will continue to do so.
I am convinced they only did it because the original engine was reverse engineered. They ported it to Unreal Engine 4 and did minimal work.
That ending got me teared up. And then the sequence in mafia 2…the mafia never forgets….wow.
The way the p in “company” and l in “trillion” merge is pretty cool.
The remaster wasnt even done by rockstar was it?
There’s alot wrong here
1, 6.5 trillion dollars? That’s bull
2, pointing out the value of the company for the first image and ignoring that same point for the second image, both games are under take 2 and take 2 are the decision makers
3, remaster to remake, very different things

6.5 trillion dollars???
Why are all the top comments about the money on the left when it was clearly an exaggeration for comedic effect?
last time I checked the these two are literally under the same umbrella company LMFAO
The Mafia remake was developed by Hangar 13, a subsidiary of 2K Games, a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive.
Rockstar games happens to also be a subsidiary of none other than Take-Two.
So you’re basically criticizing a company while praising the same company again
Isn’t mafia and GTA owned by the same company?
Rockstar is dogshit. Terrible ass company, have fun buying the sharkcards 2.0 that cost $1000 in gta6.
Hate to break this to you, but GTA is a Rockstar game, and Mafia is a 2K game… and both are part of Take-Two Interactive.
Rockstar didn’t develop the remasters, it was outsourced to another studio.
That was just straight up disrespectful from Rockstar to fans of GTA. Just ridiculous what they’re doing over there. Blinded by greed.
A bunch of redditors clearly don’t know what a hyperbole is.
