Wow.

Almost three years into a new console generation, but let's port it to a 10 year-old console instead.

Well, it does make sense. Xbox consoles already have it through backwards compatibility, porting it to PS4 means PS5 users can also play it. It seems like a straight port, not a remaster.

Which means nothing in terms of graphics or performance improvements.

And no doubt Rockstar/Take Two will ask a premium price for it.

How much improvements in graphics are you asking for on a port to the Switch?

People bitch and moan about games not being available. And then they always criticize games when they're available. What happened to just enjoying a good game for what it is?

Got to have something to sell you on PS5 in three years time.

Well, switch means easy PC play via Yuzu/Ryujinx!

At least ps5 is backwards compatible, but disappointed it’s not on pc ;(

This could be one step towards that. A PS4 release means it's been ported to x86 hardware (the 360 did not have x86 hardware and the X1/XSX version is basically emulation with enhancements)
