Fun fact: The orange fog was only present in the PS2 version to cover up the distant pop-in the same way Silent Hill did on the PlayStation. The fog was removed on Xbox and PC simply because it wasn't needed there.

[@BxPanda7]

I heard they didn't port all the effects over from OpenGL(ps2) to DirectX(xbox and pc) which is why allot of effects are missing in those versions, but it was due to laziness and not because they weren't needed.

I really liked that yellow hue on ps2 San Andreas, it gave it a proper early 90's look if you know what movies I'm referring to lol... But the rest of the colour hues and overlays just nailed the atmosphere and 90's feel of the game and honestly makes the graphics hold up better for a bit longer, notice in the Xbox version and subsequently the "remasters" that when they got rid of that and the rest of the fog, and changes in colour overlays depending on where you were, the game felt smaller and the graphics showed more of their imperfections when all that was peeled away.

[@dan_chen]

True, even on pc with all those mods I still can't replicate that kind of hue. Sucks for me because I couldn't afford a ps2 (and can't now because of all kinds of things). Mods can only get so close and they also have all kinds of unwanted side effects too. The game was part of my childhood yet I still missed out on the best things it could offer

The Dreamcast came out 2 years prior with online connectivity and DLC, almost the exact same performance, and a better game library and it was one of the worst selling consoles ever. Now that people look back on the Dreamcast, it's seen as underrated. Tired of the sales argument.

No, you wouldn’t. The Dark Knight Rises was one of the highest grossing superhero movies of all time, but while it was great, was it better than The Dark Knight? Again, your answer is most likely no. Call of Duty Advanced Warfare and WW2 were among the top 10 best selling CoD games, but most people didn’t like it, or thought it was okay. I only agree on the game library part you said.

[@HankJr.]

It’s crazy to learn that the red orange fog/hue was added to cover up and hide the draw distance problems caused by the PS2s hardware limitations at the time. It ended up creating such a vibe to the game that it just doesn’t feel natural and correct without it. You can see how much cleaner and a bit sharper the Xbox version is but without that red orange filter it just doesn’t set the mood.

[@danielposey0620]

I have both versions, the draw distance on the Xbox version looks damn near the same as the ps2 version.🤷🏻‍♂️ I think Xbox fanboys created this false narrative that the orange global illumination was removed from all versions because it wasn’t needed is just hilarious. Whoever heard of devs purposely removing graphical features from games because they weren’t needed, lol.

[@none377]

[@edwin99901]

Just like with Silent Hill, limitations breed creativity, and fortunately it worked I'm the PS2 version's favor. That orange hue is iconic and GTA San Andreas doesn't feel the same without it. It adds to the warm Los Angeles atmosphere and has sort of a 90s "hood" flick filter. The PS2 Classics version on PS4 looked solid with its higher resolution.

El tonito amarillo de Los Santos en la versión de Ps2 es la auténtica salud, a pesar de sus limitaciones

[@HaronFuroze]

No solo el tono, la version de ps2 destacaba por 3 cosas mas: 1. El shading de los vehículos que simulaba reflejos, que en xbox/pc fue reemplazado por un simple specular que encima deja a ver las imperfecciones de los modelos y hace que se note la mala topologia de los modelos 3d. 2. Lo natural que se sentia el sol, literalmente si mirabas al sol este casi te cegaba y tapaba gran parte de la imagen, esto es algo que ni el silent patch puede recrear al 100% en pc. 3. La perfecta transparencia de las texturas gracias a que la ps2 manejaba y procesaba este tipo de texturas de manera MUCHO mas eficiente que la gamecube, xbox, pc y cualquier grafica de pc de la epoca, permitiendo que ninguna textura con alpha se dibuje de forma incorrecta al contrario que en pc y xbox que a veces ciertas texturas con transparencias hacen que se algunas zonas del mapa se hagan translucidas, además esto permitió que la ps2 manejara mayor densidad de efecto de hierba, niebla y humo sin perder casi nada de rendimiento. Edit: se me olvido otra cosa mas, la version de ps2 era compatible con los botones analogicos del dualshock, por lo tanto si presionabas x o cuadrado despacio, entonces acelerabas/retrocedias despacio, asi que podias controlar la velocidad del vehículo.

La verdad es que la Xbox clásica era una bestia y siento que para su época fue la mejor consola y aunque le faltó introducir puertos USB como lo hizo playstation 2 tuvo mejores innovaciones como introducir disco duro para almacenamiento y dejar las memory cards tan solo para llevar partidas, introdujo el juego online gratuito, tenía procesador casi de cpu, la interfaz era muy cómoda y futurista además de que puedo decir con certeza que la calidad de sus materiales era mucho mejor que la playstation 2, es decir, una xbox clásica es pesada pero por todo lo que lleva dentro y además su plástico es muy resistente, son consolas que se usaron como cerebros de árcades y hasta la fecha muchas son rescatadas, restauradas y ahora son consolas jubiladas para disfrutar de los videojuegos clásicos de vez en cuando. La verdad me gusta más Xbox por esos aspectos. La playstation 2 también es un titan ya que a pesar de no tener la tecnología que tenía la Xbox es increíble ver como en pleno 2022 aún puede mover gráficos tan enormes como los titanes en los god of war y sus enormes entornos en god of war 2 y el shadow of the colossus es una brutalidad, aunque sus plásticos son de buena calidad hay algunas partes donde sí se puede llegar a sentir más débil como en las esquinas y en las rendijas de ventilación inferiores algo que no sucede en xbox. En lo personal tengo tanto la xbox clásica como la ps2 una a lado de la otra, la xbox fue rescatada y restaurada por mi misma y la ps2 ya la compré restaurada y por eso hablo con total certeza que para mi xbox es mejor que la ps2.

[@user-xs4xo3wz6f]

Sadow of the colossus se vería mejor en una Xbox, en Ps2 los colosos tenían muy baja resolución en sus texturas y no tenían mucho detalle sus cuerpos, en el piso casi no había objetos y todo el poder gráfico lo consumía el coloso sus texturas y sus efectos. El suelo gris, el cielo gris, la niebla gris, hace que veas más detalle en las texturas que el que hay realmente, ni el coloso ni el escenario consumen mucho poder, un PC u otra consola cualquiera podrían crerrer el juego. Un Xbox podría correr perfectamente el juego con más texturas el coloso, con más efectos, podría quitar la niebla del escenario y agregar texturas y objetos al piso, para verse como un campo, igual una PC de 2003, 2004.

bueno, es que la xbox literalmente era un pc (un pentium 3 con una placa grafica personalizada , una geforce 3 con algunos añadidos), pero hay que recalcar que la ps2 tenia una ram y un procesador mas rapido (aunque tenga menos mhz, era mas rapido por que era mas avanzado y mas capaz), pero no hay que negar que la xbox tenia mejores graficos, por que era verdad y en cuanto a la calidad de los materiasles, si, esta confirmado que la xbox se vendia a perdida, por que la maquina valia unos 400 o 500 dolares de fabricar y micro la vendian mas barata, para ganar mas mercado, y con ps2 eso no se hizo creo (solo el primer año nomas), lo unico malo que le veo , es que es bastante mas dificil de modificar que una ps2, tenes que abrir si o si la consola, en cambio con una ps2, con una memory card alcanza

PS2's orange light WASN'T there to "cover up the distant pop-in", it's there because it was the INTENDED atmosphere the game was giving to the player, the "distant pop-in" reason I read in the comments is 100% bullcrap, the reason it was removed in the PC version is because it used an advanced post-processing framebuffer effect that only PS2's architecture was capable doing that well at the time (because not every console was just "more" or "less" powerful as it is now, they were different and they had their own quirk) and it was very hard to bring it on higher resolutions, that is missing on the Xbox version (and all the others in the future) because it was a direct port from PC, it just was lost alongside a lot of other details we lost forever even in the most recent releases. Am I saying that Xbox version is bad? No, but sure spreading misinformation about the game just because you enjoy a console over the other is bad, PS2 is not the most powerful console and we know that, but PS2 GTA SA is the original version and where the game was developed in the first place, everything that's present in the PS2 version is the original view that the developers had on how the game had to be played and how it was intended to look, we had 20 years of bad ports that tried to make us forgot what GTA SA's original visions by Rockstar was, let's not make the original vision of this game die.

I wish they would do a remaster that was faithful to the style of the PS2. It's not just the red sky in the intro that has a particular feel. It's much of the game. Check out the scene where CJ, Sweet, Smoke, and Kendel meet in in the cemetery, and look at the blue sky in the PS2 port in comparison to other iterations of the game. The PS2 version hits me right in the feels.

[@lsilva6736]

It wasn't an intentional design choice, it was caused by the PS2 not being able to properly handle the day/night cycles for lighting so they just gave up and let it be that way lol.

eh no, cuando salido la xbox no era un pc muy potente, era un pc medio, con software dedicado, que es algo que no tiene los pc, por eso la xbox puede correr el doom 3 y para correr eso en pc , necesitabas un maquina mucho mas potente que una xbox , no era por que la xbox fuera super potente , sino por que programaban para ella sola, por lo que se podia exprimir mucho mas, que aun pc normal (esto es normal, pasa con todas las consolas)

pc custom lo dicen y se creo con desperdicios segun sus creadores ya que a la division directx para juegos no lo tomaban en serio eran los nerds xbox clasic es pc gama media de su epoca y lo que hicieron en 1 año es de aplaudir , un pc comun demoraba minutos prender ,una xbox solo segundos y solo modificaron windows, hicieron que corriera juegos fluidamente algo que la pc de su gama no podia con muchos titulos. a sony y nintendo les llevo años desarrollar su consola y hacer su campaña xbox clasic 1 año hicieron casi todo duro apenas 3 años y tanto en el mercado con 15 paises a disposicion ,solo en EEUU habia bastantes tiendas xbox, fuera no tanto por ser americano estudios japoneses no le daban mucho apoyo, pago el desarrollo de algunos titulos como a fromsofware a pesar de tener todo en contra le fue bastante bien en un mercado donde playstation se vendia en +80 paises oficialmente,99% de las tiendas solo era play con todo el apoyo economico de sony a sus espaldas. como que la publicidad de xbox y nintendo no era ni el 5% de lo que gastaba sony teniendo a todo thirdpartys de apoyo ya que sony fue el primero en darle mas % de ganancia y facilidades. tenia mejor relacion, y es sony un gigante japones tiene todo a su favor

Entiendo que la mayoría les guste más PS2 ( nunca tuve Xbox y la PS2 la tuve 3 o 4 veces por lo cual le tengo más cariño) pero hay que saber admitir las cosas, la versión de Xbox se ve gráficamente mejor, y en sí la consola era un poco más potente que la PS2.

[@Ouail98]

Era bastante más potente

[@ATthemusician]

The resolution is higher on Xbox, but I see that as a negative for ps1-2 era games. Idk why people like to play those older 3D games at super high resolution, it makes its age a lot more apparent and looks shittier because of the sharpness on low quality textures. Playing these games on a CRT with slightly lower res will make them look a lot less jagged and weird.

[@rainydevil2273]

​@@Ouail98 muy cierto bro no hera un poco mas potente hera mas potente que la ps2 jajajje

[@StormRaid417]

Xbox was really pushing that performance back then. Still doing it to this day.

[@Theytell]

Ps2 was out 2 years prior to releasing in the U.S. Microsoft had all that time to make the Xbox better when they both released the same time in the U.S.

[@anthony000izt]

there’s no question that the xbox version performs better, but man if they could’ve just brought that orange haze effect from the ps2, that’d be the perfect port!

[@haydensteinz2268]

I will agree it performs better but i still think ps2 looks better that orange tinge is what made that game

[@VergilHiltsLT]

You can't, the Xbox was way weaker in rendering graphical effects like sun, lighting, heatwaves, etc. That's why they're missing lol.

[@alihanbaruk1590]

@@VergilHiltsLT they put orange filter because ps2 hardware wasnt enough for rendering distance obeject.

[@VergilHiltsLT]

@@alihanbaruk1590 Any official sources to prove that? Also you're wrong, Xbox couldn't handle framebuffer effects due to 5.4 GB/s memory bandwidth VS 48 GB/s VRAM on PS2. Go and read about it on Techradar. Xbox used shaders which were very demanding and lackluster in many aspects, especially lighting (limited to DirectX 8.1). Not only that, but games like Metal Gear Solid 3 disprove any myth about Xbox's "superiority". Xbox was also downgraded in many other ways, from textures to polycounts, missing tall grass, wrong VFX, inferior lighting, etc This is further proven by Scarface which not only looks worse on Xbox (missing blood decals, shading, worse lighting, worse textures especially for roads, lower polycounts) but performs worse too.

[@alihanbaruk1590]

​@@VergilHiltsLT Xbox has better hardware compare to PS2. Even in the video you can see XBOX has better graphics and render distance.

[@teliz_aungustion]

Bueno, lo más importante es que juegas el juego pero en comparación de ve en temas de resolución xbox se ve un poco mejor, y veriedad se ve mejor en PS2 porque ese toque naranja y oscuro le da 1 punto a favor la xbox se me mejor(obviamente por tener más potencias ya que GTA sa explotaba a la PS2)

The loading screen has a programed timer, it always takes the same time, the difference is that the Xbox gets to the loading screen faster

[@danbucklet]

That doesn't make much sense. If it's on a timer, does that mean the game actually loads faster than it appears to and you actually have to spend time waiting for nothing while the rest of that timer counts down?

[@BunnyTPerson]

@@danbucklet I don't know why they did it like this, but if you can do the test by booting the game and counting the time it takes for the load screen to end, it will be the same every time. A lot of PS2 games work like this for some reason.

[@BunnyTPerson]

My theory is that they did that so we could see the artworks

[@danbucklet]

@@BunnyTPerson Oh maybe. I didn't think about it that way. The only other explanation I could think of is that because it's an open world game, it takes the same amount of time to load each time because it's always loading the same number of resources
