I REALLY DO find it wierd with all the positivity here though.

Everyone i knew during the psx days also disliked the games at the time of release. Did they even score well at the time?

I don't know where you were when the original Crash games came out because they received high acclaim and the character even became a bit of a mascot for Sony.

You realize Uncharted 4 has segments exactly like that, right? When the truck is barreling towards you from behind. It's foreshadowing for that.

That's a minority of Crash levels, but a memorable one.

Even Last of Us had a nod with the heavily armored truck following behind you right before you jump from the bridge.

Looks awesome! Might be the next game I get for PS4.

Yeah the mascot thing i knew, found it wierd even at the time since pretty much every one i knew disliked the games... didnt really read reviews at the time

I see now we were in a minority.. well not for everyone i guess

This narrative that some are trying to push about Crash games never being popular or good is hilarious.

I can't speak for everyone, but where I came from you will struggle to visit a house that doesn't have Crash games(mostly pirated tho)

It was the shit back in the day.

Crash was insanely popular in the psx days.

I wish they'd stop pretending they kept the exploits. They did not. It's just gonna be a much slower and sterilized remake.
Driving looks very janky, definitely not as smooth as in Skylanders like you'd expect.

They stated SEVERAL times that they have.

Wait, I noticed in the Tomb Wader video that the play killed themselves, but no "Lives Left" indicator was shown.

I would love it if they killed the lives system completely, but did Warped even have lives? I can't believe I've forgotten this.

The medieval levels from warped look horrible. The low walls through the level are all straight lines and mortar, they should be drystone walls like:

Rosedale-8123.jpg


The frogs have weirdly bloated bodies that make them reminiscent of the crows from bloodborne and I'm not at all convinced by the giants holding cooked turkeys instead of clubs....

And why do the wumpa fruit leave purple splatters? In what world does that make the game look better.

Credit where it's due: the driving level and the future level look good.

Warped had Lives, im sure they just deactivated the game over sequence to show more death animations.

In the other videos they show crash dying when the counter is 0 and the game still going.

I believe you since I've seen lot of your speedruns online, but I'd still like to see sources to that. Also, what kind of exploits do you mean? I won't be bothered if they fix some really obscure exploits that were only used by WR speedruns.

I wonder how long this has been in the works? I mean Sony had been hinting at it since the PS4 launched! It is a small team after all so it could have taken a long time with relatively low risk for Activision.

Basically anything that made you go faster except just slidespinning is gone, and anything that used to give you a ton of height (slide jump with a spin) no longer does. No changing direction duing a slide, invisible walls that weren't there before etc. (sourced from word of mouth of top runners like CaneOfPacci, SkiCrazedTeddy and others who have played the demo)

No, it isn't. They only lose their clothes on getting bazooka'd, which is how it was in the american version.

Also they still haven't fixed this since PSX lol

Looks like an incredibly faithful recreation while still improving some of the dated controls! (I hated the flying levels as a kid)

Looks great! But I noticed Crash is missing an animation when bringing back crystals and gems after finishing a level. He used to smile while looking at them, but now he just stands there. That felt a little off to me.

Lol, I know. But I'd really only be getting a PS4 for this and the Ratchet remaster. And maybe Horizon.

I'm an old school Luddite whose heart belongs to platformers. I don't care for these...Uncharteds and Assassins-- whatever you whippersnappers are doing these days.

PS4 is filled with platformers. What about things like Little Nightmares, Rayman Legends, Tearaway, LittleBigPlanet 3 etc? Or the insane amount of 2D style platformers on the PSN store? I think I've got 30+ 2D style platformers that I've got from PSN. The console is platformer heaven.

This game is looking so good. It's great that they've kept things mostly simple, like geometry and character detail, to avoid losing the charm of the originals. This is a fantastic remaster.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
Weird....i loved the OG Trilogy and was quite excited for this one but seeing the gameplay footage now..it doesnt really look fun and more boring than remeber. Maybe it because of the player or the levels they are showing off...but somehow not feeling it. The graphics look great though - nice job there VV.

I will still give it a try...even if its just for my Nostalgia.
