    Waiting to see if it is a single list (like Mass Effect) or 3 lists (like BioShock).
    Each of the games is a separate download, so it pretty much has to be 3 lists.

    People should ask them to put new cheevs on Skyrim, luckily I have yet to start it so this will be like a Fable new chapters I guess (I have yet to get further than the Balverine bit in that game too).

    As much as they'd like to push ESO (and it is great) they must be nieve if they think achievment hunters would not welcome some more entirely single player Elder Scrolls.

    As much as Im looking forward to playing vice city again, I’m very much aware that it is just a remaster as opposed to a remake, something I feel quite a few people have overlooked!
    I await the flood of complaints that will inevitably follow!

    That is rather concerning, what the hell are Rockstar doing...
    it looks like fortnight what do you expect... out of all the remastered games ever released this is by far the worse looking, i was so hyped thinking gta 5 graphics but no it looks terrible.
    gamer score is now pointless thanks to dumb indie games.......

    But unlike BioShock, they are not listing it as 3 releases, at least not on TA - Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition or on the Microsoft store where the games are not available to purchase individually https://www.xbox.com/games/store/x/9MXMJFNZMVWD

    Anyone who plays SA on Game Pass will still have to pay $60 to play the rest of the collection. It’s clever, and similar to the games that give you Episode 1 for free. If it is a single list, as long as it is split up it will be possible to get a 100% completion just by finishing SA.

    Given the achievements would be for the new DLC, I think that would upset existing owners of the game, who get the upgrade for free but not the DLC.

    There are collections where the individual games cannot be bought individually, but they do have separate lists; the Hitman Blood Money and Absolution HD releases for example. I guess we can only wait to see in this case.

    And yup, Rockstar up to their usual Game Pass tricks there! No doubt they'll remove it after a month or two like they frequently do with GTA V so that people who didn't rush/don't have the time to complete it will have to pony up the full $60 afterwards.

    It's on Game Pass so this is how it goes. I own the game as I bought it way before game pass but still extra achievements would be welcome. Modern gaming world: MS buys the company making your favorite game and then ads some new content that you may want to pay for. At-least this is an upgrade and DLC rather than asking you to fork out the full price of a game for a new edition.

    A lot of people cringe when some of the 80's are dug up, it's fitting that a game based on it should cause the same reaction.

    Simple Minds should make sure that they DO forget about the game. ;)

    After seeing the GTA SA port done by Groove Street games (same guys doing the remastered trilogy) that's still broken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhVdb4K1M-M i'll happily let people who pre-ordered beta test it first.

    Is it my imagination... or is *EVERY* American hero named, "Jack"!?! The guy from the game above is Jack... there's Jack Reacher, then Jack Bauer. I'm sure I'm forgetting a few. If you're a hero from England, your name is James. If you're a hero from the USA... it's Jack!! laugh

    Still no GTA, and it is already the 12 August here in New Zealand! The FH5 release was managed much better :)

    It's releasing at the same time world wide. 3pm GMT, so whatever that translates to in New Zealand (I guess 1am on the 13th or something like that?). This was announced by Rockstar already.

    Ah, ok. TA had it down as the 11th, which would be 4am on the 12th in NZ (it’s 8am now).
