Time for the PlayStation fans who love Crash Bandicoot so much to actually play Crash Bandicoot for the first time.

No I mean his movement speed is slow compared to the ps1 original game, which I have completed to 100% on three different occasions.

 

[Thorzilla]

I love how they updated all the sprites/HUD elements without messing with the artstyle.

We got a glimpse of a Tawna token but not enough to appreciate the update but oh well.
This is still a work in progress so I expect them to tweak a few things here and there until release.

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed. I just wish they were using the old font as I think it's as iconic as Crash itself.

 

[Tizoc]

Will buy if it comes on xbox.

Funnily enough I had said in the Steam thread that since thi is an Acti game, they'd benefit from releasing it on more systems as well, so I do hope that happens because I will double dip the fuck out of it

 

[addik]

Colors just seem a bit too faded out, but otherwise it looks great!

Didn't know what I expected from the remaster, but the trailer did impress.

 

[N.Domixis]

Hory shet, the first game has time trials!!!!

 

[GOOCHY]

I think those of you who are saying it looks slow are forgetting what the original games played like.

 

[TheMink]

I believe the perception of his flip is throwing you, he is rotating slower as opposed to the original more snappy front flip but I'm pretty sure his forward momentum is the same

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Looks pretty good to me. Super thrilled for this!

 

[amnesiac]

This info should go into the OP: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016...-sane-trilogy-first-screens-in-depth-details/

Done, thanks.

 

[jax]

I'll probably buy a PS4 for this.

 

[mortal]

AWWW YEAAAAA :')

 

[IgotElbows]

Yeah people are not remembering the games correctly if they think they moved quick. They aren't fast moving games. Crash 3 with the running shoes moves hype as fuck though.

If this does well will they remaster spyro? Cause that would be hype as fuck.

I hope this does so well Activison/Sony goes "Hey let's try with Spyro too!"

I love Spyro so much more than Crash.

I would LOVEEEE for Spyro 2 remaster. God. I want it so bad.
So jelly of Crash fans.

 

[Nudull]

Doesn't look too bad for what it is. Seems like Crash himself was tweaked a bit compared to the Skylanders version.

 

[Crooked16th]

Really hope the next gameplay we get looks better everything about this looked off the art style and the flow of gameplay looks slow. Can't wait to play Crash 3 again though.

 

[Jawbreaker]

Looks exactly like I thought it would. They can still make some adjustments, but if this is how it ends up looking, I'm cool with it.

 

[GIANKRATOS]

Crash model looks perfect

 

[Elwood Blues]

The artstyle is a big step down from ps1 games

 

[privitsan02]

I'll probably still get this though, despite its weird reveal. Hopefully if its successful, we get a Spyro Trilogy Remaster, only hopefully they won't use his awful current design.

 

[Tratorn]

Great art style, so much better than Skylanders. Release already.

 

[GunBR]

Just hoping that Activision don't fuck up with the gameplay like they did with Tony Hawk HD

 

[PlatypusDude]

Oh crap relics are in the first game now.

 

[Rellik]

So what you're saying is it looks like... Crash Bandicoot.

 

[zoodoo]

Something looks off with the art style but ill play it anyway.

[eyeball_kid]

it looks too clean. loses the texture of the original, now looks like a cheap low budget cartoon.


see the darker mossy look in the original here, feels like a real jungle. compare to the pristine rolling stones in the new one and the bright lighting engine. meh.

Well, I do think they messed with the coloration too much. There is a different vibe for sure. The lighting seems brighter. But it's going to be hard for any HD game to replicate low-res assets perfectly. They could've tried going with a slightly cell-shaded style. Mostly I think they did a good job from what I'm seeing though. I'm sad to hear they aren't using the original composer... the soundtrack on those games were fantastic.

I'm not a fan of the fur texture on Crash though, they made him look like some Chuck E. Cheese animatronic.

Hard to tell if it'll match up to the original feel of the controls until we play it though.

(I worked on the marketing for Crash 1 and 2...so I want this to rep Crash well as much as anyone)

Yeah, I get the same idea looking at the 3rd row of screenshots - original conveys a dark, dank temple/ruins passage, whereas the new version looks super clean and trimmed. Takes a bit away from the adventurous personality IMO, and also I think a big part of why some folks think it looks cheaply made. Maybe a bit of work with the lighting/coloring could help out here.

 

[I am Error]

I played through the first game just a few weeks ago.

They nailed the modern graphics. That's way better than I expected to be honest.

 

[Kinsei]

a proper save system in Crash 1 and relics in Crash 1 and (presumably) 2? I can't wait for this.

 

[Sub_Level]

You could be right. The upstream parts look normal. But the boulder parts and the temple parts look slower. Still a work in progress.

 

[Atrarock]

No I mean his movement speed is slow compared to the ps1 original game, which I have completed to 100% on three different occasions.

I noticed this too, his animations are what's slow, not so much his actual movement speed. It's like making something jog quick but giving it the animation of someone crawling at 0.25 mph

 

[Falchion]

Holy fuck this looks like so much fun!

 

[Rastafarian42]

damn this is dope

 

[Arials]

I'd be all over a new crash game, but when it comes to the originals I'd rather play the originals than a remix with revised art.

 

[dampflokfreund]

Meh. It looks way too bright. Now it looks like any other cartoony HD game these days (mainly Skylanders)

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I hope this does so well Activison/Sony goes "Hey let's try with Spyro too!"

Agreed.

My thoughts exactly.
Hopefully that changes by release.

 

[GIANKRATOS]

Lol!

 

[VertPin]

Is anyone able to post the screenshots released on the PS Blog? They're on Flickr and my phone won't download it for some reason...

THE GAMES LOOK AMAZING AND MY FAVORITE CRASH BANDICOOT 1IS GETTING SO MUCH LOVE

 

[N.Domixis]

Finally, they look like themselves in a strange way.

 

[Drencrom]

Beautiful

2017 will kill my wallet

 

[Roo]

I'm so excited right now!

Just to compare:

 

[Humdinger]

Looks like old school fun to me.

Man, a lot of good stuff announced at what I figured was going to be just a minor little show. Impressive!

 

[NyMartin90]

Finally, they look like themselves in a strange way.

They look the way I remember the renders were in the instruction manual

 

[Irishmantis]

I didnt play the original because of its graphics im not now.

looks clean and keeps its charm to me thats all that matters.
Once the the controls feels more fluid im a happy mon

 

[GeoramA]

I think they captured the nostalgia perfectly. Day 1 for sure.

 

[Ash735]

I hope they have time to improve the UI visuals and fonts, I hate this ott cartoony style font compared to the cartoon but rough font the originals had, I'm sure it's available somewhere, or at least be redrawn.

 

[SNURB]

I think it will be fun

But the look of it does a great job of demonstrating why fans were wrong. Crash should have stayed in the 90s.

You know, you shouldn't act so much like a jerk when it comes to this.

And mocking the fans is just absurd. A lot of people love these games.

 

[- J - D -]

Gorgeous.

 

[Jigorath]

Finally, they look like themselves in a strange way.

Where's Coco?

 

[Sub_Level]

They made the toxic waste the right color and brightness lol. Nice to see relics confirmed for Crash 1.
