Vice City Definitive Edition “classic lighting” - Is it faithful to the PS2?
Does the new "classic lighting" update for GTA Vice City Definitive Edition really restore the original look?

Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition launched with a multitude of bugs. The original look from the PS2 was gone, and instead we were left with "next-gen graphics". In this video, we will be doing a direct comparison between GTA Vice City on the PS2 and the PS5, as well as comparing them both to the DE pre-patch.
GTA San Andreas and GTA 3 have also received classic lighting updates, and I'll be looking at them too to see if they hold up with their PlayStation 2 counterparts!
Thanks for watching!

    Hey do stores still open and close like the original and did they fix Lure? They were supposed to use a Ranger(?) with tougher doors and tinted windows called Lure but instead the mission is coded to use a normal one which doesn't make sense, since gangsters can clearly see it's Carl.

    Have you ever noticed that since 2017, we never got any competent GTA clone? Instead companies tried and still trying to push multiplayer live service crap and failing. If a company made a good GTA clone, they would have made millions in this time period.

    It looks better - there's no denying that, especially with the implementation of the classic lighting fix - but there are still a lot of issues that need fixing. I haven't been out and bought the trilogy even though I really want to because I'd like to think there will be additional patches incoming, but I'm not convinced R* will be doing much more if anything with the games 🤷🏻‍♂️

    We also got one new gta game a year two years at most. We would not get bored because we were getting new maps constantly. We've had this map for all of 10 years. We really let rockstar milk this one. And GTA 6 is not going to be any better because they are going to ride that down too. I think it would be better if they introduce something like 5M were you can rp in a session. Instead of getting into an online session to just get blown up or shot at for no reason. It would feel more real if online players could be the cops that make us not shoot each other. Otherwise its just a city that gets boring after you get killed 20 million times

    regarding the classic vs new lighting on the trilogy, 3 and SA hands down look better in the classic lighting but VC has always been a toss up. of the 3 game i always thought vc got the best visual make over and i really liked how it looked on definitive. i guess the AO and neon lighting is better on Definitive and the sky boxes are better on classic

    Interesting comparison but ultimately the entire DE business is pointless, PS2 games automatically remaster themselves as soon as you start them in a modern emulator and set up a higher resolution. No need to wait for Rockstar to maybe get the vibe right after 10 years of patches while they also remove more and more of the soundtrack

    The definitive edition looked super flat but I never liked the ps2 orange look to begin with, I grew up playing the PC version and I guess I didn't have that much of a problem with the colors but the draw distance in the definitve edition was WAY too high. With that said, I agree, the new colors, with the new textures and everything does look good 😊

    Man, I'm kinda disappointed in this, Vice City was my favorite of these three, I live the 80s aesthetic... The one thing that the new patch hasn't brought back is the glow, I loved the neon of the original game, even the glow of things like the traffic lights and lamp posts just gave everything this overly saturated 80s vibe where everything is bathed in color I so wish they managed to bring that back, but it's just missing in this 😞 which I find weird because they managed to do it really well in San Andreas, Maybe that just got more love because it's the one most people love?

    Why are we comparing it to an emulator anyway? I have a PS2 emulator and it doesn't look right either.

    • @CaptainGlack
      @CaptainGlack 13 годин тому

      For the purposes of this comparison (weather effects and general lighting) the comparison is more than fair. Contrast may vary between hardware and emulation, but this does not affect the underlying colours of the game to a point where the comparison is unjustified.

  • @Mephilis78
    @Mephilis78 14 годин тому

    But if I wanted PS2 lighting, I'd play the PS2. Do we want it remastered? Or just AI upscaled? Really is there anything you guys wanted from this that couldn't have been done with RTX Remix on fekking autopilot? What's the point? I actually wanted these games to be updated to GTA 4 and 5 standards. Notice how in the patch notes for VC DE it says "updated the comet to look more like the original" instead "updated the comet to look more like an 80s Porsche 911" doing something like that isn't keeping to the spirit of the original at all. The spirit of the Comet was a fucking Porsche. I was never attached to the shitty boxy cars. I was attached to what they were supposed to represent. The Stallions should look like GTA 4 Stallions, because they are depicting the same model year. Saddlers should have a Vapid emblem, and should like older versions of the Saddlers in GTA V. Yet here we are praising them for adding an orange color filter and removing all the clouds. For what? So we can get fog back? Why not just add fog and make the color filters optional? Do you mean to tell me that when the Capital Wasteland mod for Fallout 4 is finished people should complain that it doesn't have a green color filter? Use reshade for fuck's sake. Oops can't have a morrowind remaster because we want it to look exactly like it did in 2002. WTF are you all smoking? Definitive Edition had a lot of problems, having clouds and normal lighting wasn't among them. I can't believe how phony everyone is.

    While the distance fog is there the colors and lights are little bit off here. The orange is not orange enough in a lot of these examples. Same as with the other colors. 11:28 this is for ex. so much brighter on the DE version. Feels less like that creepy night and isn't the same purple. Now i am waiting for fixing the vegetation models. Nowhere in the world they should be California palm trees in Miami just because they were lazy enough to not make new models for the different game. At the end of the day the best is to play the OG versions with mods or trough an emulator.

    People like originals because they are originals and they are sitting in people's minds since many years. If the remasters don't match the originals toe to toe, people straight call them ugly. If there were no originals, people would be absolutely crazy for the latest patch update.

    I've seen both videos of the GTA internet and both are funny - you did a great job highlighting them, so thank you for that. I was amazed to find out that the side mission locations are right there to find and use - I didn't see that in the GTA V video - doesn't it have that as well ? Anyway it's kinda shocking because I didn't expect that. Somewhat gives me the itch to load up that game and have some fun with it all (also since I can't play V because I'm on win 7 still - solutions welcome)

    I definitely think that if they got the yellowish color matches more to the peach color of the original, it would be a HUGE improvement. The DE is also quite a bit darker in a lot of weather so getting that fixed would help a lot too. Great video! Really excited to see your video coving this with GTA III. I feel like the classic lighting misses the mark, especially during the day, and doesn’t have the drab blueish-green tint the original had but that’s why I’m excited to see how it compares.

    If another update is in the works, I think fixing/extending the LODs should be top priority. Or bring the haze/fog closer to the player, so the awful LODs are concealed.
