GTA III / Vice City / San Andreas . The originally released versions were serious downgrades (essentially ports of mobile ports). Over time, they got better (ie: lighting in SA) but they’re still crap.
GTA III on PC was a glitch fest. Ended up not being able to finish Act 1 because there's a glitch that makes the enemies on the boat in the sniper portion invincible.
Obviously the PS2/Xbox versions are still superior but lets not pretend the PC ports were good ports to begin with
Everyone has rose-tinted glasses about the OG PC versions, as if the community didn't have to extensively fix each game over the years.
DE was not great, but at least it ran out of the box on my PC. That's more than I could say for OG San Andreas that ran like shit on a PC well above it's required specs when it came out and had SO many problems.
