Rockstar removed the older versions of the three games from PC storefronts before the collection arrived. Adding to the publisher's woes, the Rockstar Launcher has been out of commission for around 24 hours "for maintenance" — not a great look when Rockstar just released a new collection of some of its most notable games. The store, cloud services, downloads and authentication systems are also down. Engadget has contacted Rockstar Games for comment. Some fans have expressed disappointment at the quality of remasters, with screenshots of glitches and videos of bugs popping up.
One player posted a video of a rainstorm in San Andreas that made it difficult to see anything around CJ.

Early on in GTA: San Andreas , a progress-critical mission has you head to the beach to complete a dancing mini-game. The problem? In the PS2 original, you hit button prompts as they scroll through a circle at the bottom of the screen. It was a simple but fun rhythm game.
The timing is wrong. The only way to beat this mission is to actually hit the button prompts well after they pass through the circle. Other missions crash the game if you take specific routes, forcing you to map out different, safe paths to reach your objective. Other missions freeze up unless you mash a button at just the right time during a loading screen or menu. So not only are these ports bad, but for many players, they might be the only easy and legal way to play the classic San Andreas without exhuming an old PS2 or PC copy.
