The studio delayed the release of physical GTA Trilogy copies to December 17 but some eager fans have been able to get their hands on them a bit early.

The gaming industry has largely phased out any manuals or pamphlets that introduce the player to the world they’re about to embark on. But GTA fans noted their disappointment for another shortcoming in what Rockster marketed as the “definitive” edition for the trilogy.
“Lowkey the best part of owning the physical copies of the older GTA’s was because of the manual and map,” one user said. “Yet another disappointment.”
The Definitive Trilogy already endured a barrage of internet scorn from people who were left dissatisfied by the overall quality of the remasters.
“Definitive, yet lacking what the originals had in quality and physical incentive,” another person said.
In some cases, players found the GTA Trilogy to be downright unplayable. The trilogy was then compared to the infamous state of Cyberpunk 2077 upon release which led people to demand refunds.
