GTA Trilogy Remake: 10 Missions We Can't Wait To Play (& 10 We're DREADING)

1. Dreading: Supply Lines - GTA San Andreas

Make sure you've got some time for this one...you're really gonna need it.

Supply Lines is a strong candidate for the very worst mission in Grand Theft Auto history.

In fact it's so bad, in the original remasters of the Trilogy, Rockstar actually had to change it!

In this one, Zero, giver of terrible missions, tasks CJ with piloting a remote-controlled plane - The Red Baron - to blow up various vans around the city.

This is so much worse than it sounds. The Red Baron, firstly, has a fuel gauge which you'll need to watch constantly. Then, it handles awfully. Then, dropping bombs actually on the vans is ridiculously difficult to do. Then, you've got to contend with the people in the vans shooting at your plane, which destroys it very, very quickly.

The whole thing is just so very, very frustrating. In the more recent releases, Rockstar expanded the plane's fuel gauge significantly, but it's still terrible.

The only saving grace of the mission is its actually optional and not required to complete the storyline. So unless you're a completionist, you don't HAVE to suffer.
