    It's been a good way to discover the licence since I hadn't played it on PS1. The firt opus is excessively frustrating, and happily enough it only gets better through the 2 other games. The remaster is qualitative, nice musics and graphics. The controls are rather unprecise regarding what you are asked to do sometimes but I imagine it's fidel to the original game.

    Crash Bandicoot is one of my favorite game series. But I had a lot of issues with gameplay if compared with the original PS1 version. With a lof of glitches and bad hit detection. But i must admit it's still fun to play.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. By far one of the hardest reviews I have ever had to do, this game is meant to be a "kids" game. I found my self playing cheap levels that are meant to hold you back if you have no idea what your doing. There are a total of 2 bridge levels to my knowledge. These 2 levels will make you want to throw the game outside your window and break the disc. The levels can SOMETIMES be fun but most of the time they are quite cheap. It was indeed my first time playing CrashBandicoot but after struggling to get through many videos of the game I am still not able to beat it. Next up Sypro the Dragon. Expand

    Despite a handful of bizarre small changes from the original games, Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy is still quite a riot. Naughty Dog’s iconic “on-rails” 3D platformers, remade from the ground up by Vicarious Visions, is still a lot of fun, with the main character’s iconic spins making for what is still a quite fresh experience that differentiates itself from other titles in the genre. With tons of content and a massive amount of extremely hard challenges to aim for in the search of that elusive 100% completion (and beyond), this is one of those platformers that could keep you coming back for a while – making this a great addition to Game Pass (also on PC and cloud – the first Activision-published game to be playable via cloud on Game Pass).

    A great remaster whcj comes to Xbox One to give the best of a saga that is already a classic.

    Some N Sane platforming precision, but Crash sets the remaster bar high. [Sept 2018, p.88]
