Did wheels always break off in explosions or is that new?

I'm pretty sure wheels popping off was always there and that impressed me at the time. 

Impressive are the shadows cast by the explosion.

I know it's the most tiny thing but GSG seem to have remodelled most of the props such as this billboard right here and even remaked the artwork on the billboards. Truly shows that a lot of passion went into this project.

Estoy bastante seguro de que las ruedas siempre estaban ahí y eso me impresionó en ese momento. 

Impresionantes son las sombras proyectadas por la explosión. 

I think I remember that when a car explodes or a wheel or two fly away xD

It seems that in gta sa there will be garbage flying on ground like in gta 3 and vc

*Hobo pedestrian is now wearing a brown jacket, instead of green. Possible another "variant".

Car on the right looks like a Primo. Seems less rounded than the original.

It's Intruder

 

 

And it's the same weird-proportioned model as from the original game.

The shirt's buttons are not in a straight line, this might indicate a beta build?

The buttons were also not in a straight line in the classic version

I can see why though, but in the Trilogy it's more visible because it pops out

Did anyone else notice that the homie (Fam2) doesn't wear a checkered shirt anymore?

Yeah, they are using clothing variations without changing the colour.

I really hope so – like they did with car/bike extras in the classic version

He's wearing checkered shirt at the scene in Sweet's Kitchen.

Is the rear view mirror actually working or just tricks at work?

Forgot what a strong orange-y filter the old game had. I'm still conflicted as to whether I'm gonna miss that in the Unreal engine version. Kinda good memories of long PS2 sessions right there.

And this is on PC and that too with mods, it looks way worse than this on my PS 2.

Maybe due to the fact that we can adjust the draw distance on the PC version, whereas we're stuck with the intentional low draw distance (orange hazey look) on the PS2.

Old Venturas Strip's buildings have parallax interiors (can't believe I am still finding stuff):

If this is the case then GSG games is very loyal to old models.

silence in the middle of the woods

There actually was a pretty good ambient sound in the woods, you just had to turn your volume up. Whenever I ran or swam around SA I often did that, just enjoying the sound of the world.

 

Although I agree, some variety in the sound would be nice. GTA URM had cockerel and woodpecker in villages/woods, it was so cool and unexpected. Would love to hear some more sounds in the wild.

 

And yes, definitely improve the city sounds.

Would be so cool to have a manual drive-by shooting style just like the gang drive-by 
(I also can't wait to hear all the new gun sounds)

I too hope free-aim drive-by mechanics are implemented – I'm sure they will be, though, especially considering the control scheme will be similar to GTA V.

 

To be honest, I even memorised the "Aim Anywhere While Driving" cheat when I used to play on the PS2 version. It just felt better to have more control IMO.

The truth is, most of the textures are upscaled where it worked best, like CJ's pants. You can do it right now yourself too, grab the pants texture, use a software that allows you to Upscale textures for free (most of them have limited use then you have to pay) and you will see the exact same result.

And a lot of other models/textures are completely reworked because it just doesn't work well anymore. The technology has advanced so much that it actually outputs are really good result but sometimes the textures lacks a lot of details and have to be completely reworked.

 

Some people might disagree or hate that they did this, but where it was possible, they applied this technology to it to get the game look as close to the originals as possible without sacrificing much

Did they say that there are going to be new gun sounds or did you just make it up?

I played the whole game once with that code on.

Think it was mentioned to be in this remaster by default. I think some source mentioned that the gta 5 drive by mechanism is in the remasters.
