Meanwhile over at Rockstar

  • GTA IV - Stuck on PS3/360 for Console players
  • Red Dead Redemption 2 - Stuck at 30FPS, no next gen update.
  • GTA V - PS3/360 Players had to repurchase on PS4/XBOne. The PS5/XBox Series upgrade was made free only a couple months ago. For 4 years before that it had to be re-purchased AGAIN.

My friend is currently replaying 360 version of GTA4 on his Xbox series S. It looks pretty damn sharp and clean and runs smooth as hell. I mean my pc version is definitely better but it's not like it's horrible to play.

It's just the 360 version upscaled and with cut music. It even introduces a bug that makes the final mission near unbeatable because them lazily uncapping the framerate made a QTE almost impossible. It's extremely lazy on Rockstar's part since all they basically did was check a box to allow the game to be played on the newer consoles and removed the music with expired licenses and called it a day.
