I mean at least Ubisoft is an entire publisher, having a subscription service for a single game series is hilariously absurd.Ubisoft+

Ubi+ has the whole Asscreed
GTA+ is just a bunch of shyt perks for a relic of a online game that needs to fukking die, but it's basically grown up's Second Life
I only got it this month because of the free access to the Trilogy games but even then it’s kind of not worth it
The games are like a hollow shell of the original game
They make so much money off GTAO they simply do not care about anything else in their portfolio. I wouldn't be surprised if half of why Remedy went to them to ask if they could do the Max Payne remakes is so R* wouldn't drop out some abomination and hurt the brand.
The GTA 3 and GTA: Vice City reverse engineering project, called Re3 and reVC, first appeared in 2021 promising updated visuals, widescreen support, camera options, and no loading screens. Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive issued a DMCA takedown in February of that year, but the modders countered stating the project contained "no code owned by Take-Two." The project fully returned in June, but then Take-Two sued in September arguing again that the group was unlawfully copying and distributing "to the public infringing source code for two classic GTA titles... without the authorization or consent of Take-Two."
Re3 and reVC were taken down again in October, with Take-Two releasing its own remakes of both games the following month. GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition was widely panned by both critics and players as a bug-filled mess that barely improved upon the originals, with Rockstar admitting, "The updated versions of these classic games did not launch in a state that meets our own standards of quality." A recent Steam release of the remakes has likewise been met with negative reviews.
