    although I was afraid that my old man would not pull it.But there are minor problems: at the first start the window mode in high resolution, which immediately alerted me, alt + enter fixed the situation. The overlay of the stimulus does not open. And when folding the game, the mouse refuses to work in the game. But it's more of my personal troubles.What kind of bugs,
    for a few levels passed, it was not noticed, but if I supplement the review, although I doubt, about something critical, the remake is done qualitatively and conscientiously.The only my game bought in the incentive at the full price, and not at a discount, and not a bit I do not regret.Crash Bandicoot gave a flurry of emotions, this game is beyond the age.

En unEra imposible que no me comprara este juego la nostalgia gano y por mucho, Crash fue uno de los primeros juegos que jugué en una PS1 fue gracias a este que entre de lleno al mundo del gaming, debía tener 7 o 8 años y lo único que quería era llegar a casa para jugar a Crash y tener la posibilidad de volver a jugarlo hoy en día en un PC me produce el mismo placer que hace años atrás. En un principio estaba asustado porque el port del juego fue hecho por Iron Galaxy (recuerden el fiasco de Batman: Arkham Knight) pero por suerte no ha pasado nada malo y el juego cuenta un buen rendimiento y sin fallos de momento.

    SINOPSIS

    Volvemos a tomar el control del tan querido marsupial con el cual vamos a atravesar los niveles que tanto caracterizaron a Crash Bandicoot y detener al malvado Dr. Neo Córtex.

    PROS

    1-El juego tiene una formula que no cansa; puede rejugarse muchas veces y no aburre jamás.

    2-El juego te incita a volver a jugar, para sacar todas las gemas, tener todas las reliquias, superar un nivel en determinada cantidad de tiempo etc.

    3-Como ya mencioné este port de consola a PC es excelente tiene una buena optimización y corre sin problemas en el pc que tengo (core i5 7600k y 1060 de 6 GB) lo puse hasta en 4K (con el DSR de Nvidia) y corre sin ningún problema con los gráficos al máximo y a 60 fps.

    4-En la mayoría de niveles hay acción en demasía y mucha dificultad al punto que llegaremos a pensar que el juego es injusto y nos hace perder a propósito.

    5-Cuando hablamos de remasterización no crean que solo lo hicieron compatible con plataformas actuales, una mejora visual por aquí y por allá, No, el juego se volvió a hacer desde cero, aun así, lograron mantener el estilo artístico del mismo. Incluso la banda sonora esta remasterizada y no está nada mal

    6-Cuando entramos al menú podemos empezar por cualquiera de los tres Crash no necesariamente debes empezar por el primero.

    7-Puedes jugar con el personaje que quieras, ya sea Coco o Crash.

    CONTRA

    1-Como el juego es "exclusivo" de PS4 tardo un año en llegar a las demás plataformas, pero que podemos hacer así es el marketing.

    2-A mi parecer los jefes están desaprovechados, suelen ser faciles de vencer; en los niveles habituales encontramos mucha dificultad mientras que la mayoría de los jefes son relativamente sencillos.

    CONCLUSION

    Es un juego que a cualquiera puede gustarle, lo hayas jugado o no en el pasado es un juego que puede entregar muchas horas de diversión además de que es una remasterización bien hecha y merece mucho la pena.    … Expand

    That's an OUTSTANDINGLY good Remake. It basically has everything: canon, extended graphics, gameplay, 60fps, couple of new levels. I was so into my childhood while i was playing this wonderful game. I enjoyed this game very much. I recommend everyone to play this game and dive in your childhood once again

    This is one of the best and most needed remakes of classic games out there. I just finished 105% on the original Crash Bandicoot and enjoyed every minute of it. That's actually the weakest part of the remake too - controls are ever so slightly different than the original, which makes the first game a little more difficult. I forgot about that pretty quickly and could get into platforming rhythms right away, so take that as trying to find a minor issue in what otherwise is a perfect remake.

    The graphics are incredible. And not just in a "ALL THE SHADERS!" kind of way. Each environment was meticulously crafted, animations are silky smooth, the framerate is solid. I did not experience any bugs or crashes at all in the 30 hours I've played so far. It's sad that this is a compliment and not just a baseline these days, but there you go.

    Crash, in general, is from an era of games that seam a lot more rare these days with gritty "realism" and depressing stories being so in vogue. I'm 30 and have drifted away from games that take a lot of emotional energy and concentration on a complicated storyline. Crash is fun and goofy. I can pick it up for an hour after work without having to "deep dive" into a cinematic experience. And it just makes me smile, even when the platforming is kicking my butt.

    Basically, get it. You won't regret it.    … Expand

    Ok, this is a Remaster done well..
    Crash Bandicoot is something i remember playing on the PS1 and greatly enjoyed playing it more than once to get all the crystals..
    This Remake is masterfully done to bring the game from PS1 era to modern PS4/PC era, in almost every aspect..

    Worth the purchase if you want to experience the Crash Action..

    This Remake is even better than the original Game and it's also harder. The only thing i dislike is the remaked music, but with mods which are easy to install u can still play the classic soundtrack. So it's not a big deal.

    Currently, I'm a professional time trial runner of this game (especially crash 2 and 3 platforming levels) and after 5 years I'm not bored at all.

    This is perhaps one of the greatest remasters/remakes of all time. Every sound, texture and feel of the game is completely redone.

And it still has the same good feel of when I played it nearly 17 years ago. I dont know where to even begin, The game is a treasure for old school gamers and the nostalgia feeling is incredibly strong here. I legit stopped throughout the game in several spots just to admire the beautiful remade graphics and the new character models to compare them to the original. This game is a 9/10 any day, The only reason I wont give it a 10/10 is because the game has some small technical limitations such as framerate being locked below 60 and V-sync issues, But I suppose these will be fixed, But they are minor bugs and dont affect playing the game much. (you will see screen tearing).

    Pros:

    - Completely re-hauled graphics on everything
    - Beautiful re-done musical score
    - Controls feel better than the original
    - Can be upscaled to 4K and beyond
    - Runs smooth on mid range hardware (GTX 970)
    - Activision didn't screw it up
    - No lootboxes or microtransactions of any kind

    Cons:

    - Has some small graphic issues with V-sync and framerate locks
    - Motion blur looks terrible (Turn it off in the settings)    … Expand

    Ремарстер получился весьма хорошим. Любимая игра детства стала смотреться привлекательной. Однако, конечно, это не ремейк — вряд ли в игру придёт новая аудитория. Тем не менее, игра нравилась как и в 2000-х, так и сейчас.

    Como si de un speedrunner se tratase, me he pasado los tres Crash Bandicoot en unos 12 días. No sé como hacer esta reseña, porque por un lado están los juegos en sí y por otro su remasterización. Pero algo se me ocurrirá porque si no no estarías leyendo esto. Así que empecemos.

    Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy es una colección genial. Remasteriza de una manera soñada los juegos del marsupial favorito de todos (o de muchos), manteniendo su esencia en todo momento. Primero quiero hablar de la remasterización en sí. Una locura. Visualmente, todos los juegos son preciosos y muy coloridos. Las OST (que supongo que las han vuelto a hacer) están genial y se adaptan a cada nivel perfectamente. Probablemente habrán cambiado más cosas, pero son más gameplay y aquí vamos a analizar los juegos en sí.

    Crash Bandicoot 1 nos presenta un juego muy simple (aunque no por ello, a un nivel más bajo que sus secuelas) con una historia que se basa en Crash Bandicoot siendo un experimento fallido de Cortex y que ahora quiere hacerlo desaparecer. A mí parecer, es el juego que más esencia tiene de la saga. Sí, tiene poca variedad de entornos y los jefes no son muy buenos, pero es un juegazo. Tiene un diseño de niveles que es muy bueno, junto a unos controles bastante precisos, una dificultad que se deja ver en algunos niveles (y de que manera) y muchos pero muchos secretos. Básicamente, Crash Bandicoot 1 es un juego súper disfrutable y que gana mucho en esta remasterización.

    Crash Bandicoot 2 (el que considero el mejor) es mucho más variado y entretenido que su precuela, ofreciéndonos un diseño de niveles a la par del primero, pero con más entornos y con jefes si bien no muy superiores, mejores que los del primero. Además, añade el dash, el poder agacharse y el salto en plancha, que son mecánicas que hacen al juego bastante disfrutable. La historia se basa en que Crash Bandicoot es más tonto que un bebé recién nacido y Cortex se aprovecha de eso para que recoja una serie de cristales que necesita. Crash Bandicoot 2 es un juegazo que si te gustan los plataformeros, debes jugar.

    Crash Bandicoot 3 nos presenta a Uka Uka, la versión malévola de Aku Aku, y una historia en la que Cortex junto a esa máscara, viaja en el tiempo para recuperar los cristales. Al viajar en el tiempo, el diseño de niveles es el más variado de los 3, aunque los enemigos si que son muy parecidos en algunos sentidos. Es el más fácil de los 3 (yo me lo he pasado sin ningún game over), pero la variedad de mecánicas, los jefes, la variedad en tipo de niveles (que en los dos anteriores eran: plataformeros, persecución e ir en un animal) se expande bastante, dando una experiencia más para todos. Crash Bandicoot 3 es un muy buen juego, pero se aleja un poco de la esencia, pero se sigue sintiendo como uno más de la saga.

    No me entretengo mucho más, esta trilogía es un must-buy tanto para amantes de las plataformas como para todo el mundo (además de que lo rebajan mucho). Lo malo es que son juegos un poco cortos, pero no te arrepentirás de la compra. Recomendadísimo.    … Expand

    Crash Bandicoot is back for a nostalgia trip for those that have experienced the first three games, but only this time, the games are remastered to fit them all into a modern computer. This is a game that I do recommend so you can at least experience the first three games in high definition whether for fun or nostalgia.

These games really demand your attention and urge you to learn, adapt and improve, they're not messing around and are quite challenging, especially the 1st game, which also has the most challeging boss battles. Finding and destroying the boxes, to unlock additional content and in game achievements, is way more complicated than it might seem and encourages you to replay the levels.

    The graphics are lovely in their cartoonish nature, with vibrant colors, interesting, diverse levels and their environments, Vicarious Visions really did put the work in when they were bringing these games into a new and fresh state. Character design and animations are cool too, Crash and Coco really stand out, Coco especially, she's just so cute. The soundtrack is very likeable aswell, really dig the rock vibes of the original game especially.

    Playing on mouse and keyboard can be tricky at times, but overall it's fine. Performance for the most part is excellent, but there were a couple of instances where i felt the frame rate dipping, maybe on more powerful PC's it's not an issue.

    Crash N Sane Trilogy is a great package and an easy reccomend for anyone who is looking for some fine 90's nostalgia or great classic platforming action.    … Expand

    A faithful remake of the original trilogy, seen for the first time on PCs. Original late 90’s gameplay in a modern and aesthetically pleasing realization, with welcome additions like the timed challenges for all three titles. A remake done right and the best version of the game across all platforms.
