After GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition update ditches some mentions of the studio, Grove Street Games boss says it's "a dick move" to yank devs from credits via updates

The CEO of Grove Street Games, the studio which developed The GTA Trilogy’s Definitive Edition – yes, the version that came out in a pretty shocking state – has tweeted a thinly veiled response to Rockstar’s latest update to the trilogy removing some mentions of the studio from the three remastered games.
Following the release of the update – which brings a heap of fixes, including lighting tweaks that at least one of our lovely regular contributors is a big fan of – players have noticed that some mentions of Grove Street Games are now absent.
The main references removed are in the start-up splashes for the collection’s GTA 3, San Andreas, and Vice City remasters, as well as copyright blurbs.
While the Trilogy update hasn’t removed Grove Street Games from the end credits of the games, as GTANet points out, you can understand why a developer might be unhappy at evcen some mentions of their studio being taken out of a game it helped develop, and faced plenty of criticism for the launch state of after being being given the project by Rockstar.
