I think this is the best of the three, but that's still not saying much.
I think out of all the games 3 is the one that most deserves the remake treatment but this is definitely not the way to do it. A lot of the problems with the remaster also apply with this one, loss of atmosphere, lost music, weird-looking character models, and a lot of bugs and glitches. But for once I will say this I liked the new control scheme. I'm gonna be real here GTA 3 has aged really badly, I love how free of choice it has with its missions and its atmosphere is amazing for the first 3D game Rockstar made but its controls are just bad, I'm sorry but they've aged horribly. The Remasters controls are a lot better, they play more like 5 with the lock-on aiming of San Andreas which all and all makes the game a more tolerable experience.
Would I recommend this version of the original UUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMM I'm gonna have to say no. It still has the PS2 jank of the original so not all of the new updates for the title feel great, and as far as I know you can't buy these remaster individually so you'd be paying full price for only pretty whatever remaster with two other remasters which are 100% not worth your time or your money.
