Crash Bandicoot™ N. Sane Trilogy

FInally 100%, wow did I lose some hair and gained some more stress ulcers. Genuinely a fun game and worth the amount of time put in it. To this day, Stormy Ascent, you can suck it. Uninstalling and we out. o7

I'm split on this one. On one hand, it looks good and runs smoothly. On another....for a platforming game, the overall 'feel' of the controls is abysmal. Not good. Locked to 37 FPS, which suggests that input handling is tied to frame rate. Oh dear. For a lack of better words, the physics feels 'mushy'. Movement is delayed by a few fractions of a second whenever you press a movement key. There's also what feels like a 'snapping' to the nearest block or platform, which feels absolutely awful when you're trying to aim for a specific distance on a path. Sometimes, you might even get Crash moving a significant distance (1-3 crates' worth) when you tap a movement key to move a touch closer to an edge. Is it related to the fact that the hitboxes of the characters are now elliptical instead of cylindrical? Is that rounded bottom on their hitboxes somehow pushing the characters much further than they should? I don't know. But it certainly didn't feel better than the original trilogy of games. Unless you have strong nostalgia for this and no longer have the original PS1 versions, I would suggest thinking hard before purchasing this one. Is your nostalgia strong enough to overcome the design and implementation flaws? Maybe it's worth it then.

"Moving around in some maps can really test your patience, and the platinum relics were definitely made by the devil — but these were games from my childhood, and I’ve loved playing them again and beating them 100%." "If you’re just going for the gold relics, it'll take you around 30–50 hours. But if you're aiming for the platinum ones... get ready to suffer."

90% off in the sale so only about the price of a sandwich? Sure! Am I having a fun time? Not really. I never played these games on my Playstation back in the day so don't have any real nostalgia for them and wow are they ever frustrating. About half of my playtime seems to be cursing the hitboxes and swearing at my computer that I definitely, definitely made that one jump that it says I didn't.

Good game and port but by default it's limited to 60FPS and forces a weird implementation of V-Sync that causes uneven frame pacing even if you turn it off in settings. VRR only works in fullscreen but it also changes your screen refresh rate to 60Hz. Install SpecialK and follow the instructions on PCGamingWiki to unlock framerate, disable/replace this game's V-Sync and fix frame pacing (https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_N._Sane_Trilogy#High_frame_rate)

Childhood™ remake. Still as good and as rage inducing as 10-20 years ago. 12/10. And even if you haven't played the OG trilogy on PS1/PSX, you still will have a blast cause this game is sooo goood.

UPDATE: I found an even more reliable fix by going into the program settings in Nvidia Control Panel and just increasing the max frame rate. Not sure about AMD users. I had played this on PS4 way before I moved to PC. So far I have had no issues that prevented me from playing the game. The only thing I had to fix was the screen tearing, which was an easy fix by just going to the Nvidia Control Panel, selecting the game in the 3D Settings, and enabling fast-sync under the V-Sync category. Now I am able to get through Crash 1 (and soon 2 and 3) without hurting my eyes.

platinumed the hardest game was crash 1 and the easiest crash 3 and most complicated when it comes to acheviments crash 2 note it took me 32 hours to plat but most of that time was in crash 1 well worth buying well worth playing

While I enjoyed the little time I spent with it, it just didn’t hit the same as it did when I was a kid. The movement, in particular the jumping, feels extraordinarily janky and the input lag resulted in the majority of my deaths more so than my lack of skill, which admittedly was quite rusty. I managed to complete the first island, but when I went to save the game, the confusing save/load menu caused me to accidentally load my previous save instead of overwriting it! And while, like I said, I enjoyed my time with it, I didn’t enjoy it enough to redo all of that again, reliving my frustration with the input lag on the same levels I just did. A shame because this, along with Rayman, was the first ever game I owned as kid on the original PS1, and I loved it back then. I just have less tolerance for these kinds of issues today.

Only reason Downvote: Game Launched in 4k Windowed Mode. I spent an hour trying to get to the options without being able to see the bottom half of the screen because the game kept launching in to large of a window. It's a known issue. However in order to access the Settings I had to take screenshots of each window. If I had paid full price I would be very upset.

Jeez, this game makes me scream, swear and jump on my couch. Full of emotions. I hate it. I love it. [i][url=https://youtu.be/2Q_ZzBGPdqE?si=8O3R5es53eDtF7dF]The Beatles - Help[/url][/i]

3 Great Games for 1,33$ each. I would say pretty good deal. If your game starts with black or white screen you need to change your refresh rate to 60hz in Windows, then it will work. Also controller works perfectly on this Steam edition too.

My Review of Crash Bandicoot: 9.5/10 🔥 This game is exactly like the classic Crash Bandicoot we all grew up with — same gameplay, same crazy fun, same vibes — but fully upgraded to 4K with enhanced graphics! They nailed the nostalgic feeling while polishing everything up to modern standards. It’s like the original, just way sharper, smoother, and more beautiful. I had so much fun playing that I couldn’t stop until I got the Platinum Trophy 💎 It was pure joy — challenging, rewarding, and a perfect throwback to the good old days!

Crash Bandicoot. PlayStation Icon. Naughty Dog's first real hit. The Sonic's Ass Game. Nice set of games from 1996-1998 all remade in HD with new visuals and sounds. Now able to play as Coco in the first two games as well most of the levels in Warped beyond her own original set and there are time trials for all of the levels throughout the trilogy beyond just Warped.. No option to toggle on the original music tracks though. You get the two DLC levels of Stormy Ascent for Crash Bandicoot and Future Tense for Crash Bandicoot: Warped pre-installed with this PC port by Iron Galaxy. If you are getting NST and having issues with frame rate, be sure to go to Nvdia Control Panel, go into 3D Management setting and set FPS to 60 FPS for smoother frame rate. You can use the Vicarious Vision screen to test out how smooth you want it. Be sure to check the community posts for more info. I recommend picking it up. Especially if you get it on sale at a low price. You're getting a real bargain with three full-games in one packages and it even doesn't cost you 80. For the love of all things, can we please have Iron Galaxy put CTR Nitro-Fuelled on PC? You're leaving a lot of money on the table here guys. Put it on Steam and you have yourself a best seller for a now-six year old game. Just a thought.

i absolutely recommend the pc version since you can customize you're gaming performance unlike the consoles edition, 60 fps maximum no going down, and you can now use you're normal timing and get it right basically like a cheat code of playing the game easily, ( not using cheats )

They kept every single little detail intact from the old games. Including the ones that turn this game into one of the most sadistic platformers out there. Some of these levels took at least five years off of my lifespan.

Great Game But Really Hard But Nothing is Better then Betting levels like The Road To Nowhere

nice remaster, the controls fell tight enough, only on certain level the don fell exactly the same but not that difficult to make some little adjustments. If you are a fan is a must, if you are new enjoy the ride

Grab it on sale, massive value and super fun

Awesome remaster! Definently recommend playing this remaster of this classic bandicoot game!

I am bad at this game but Coco is cute so I can recommend it for that. 2 and 3 are better designed and more variety while 1 has some extremely obnoxious levels and optional objectives. I think the controls are better than the original, I remember some of the alternative playstyles in Warped being much more irritating in the originals than they are in this. I prefer CTR, I'm just putting a review at this point hoping for a port of that. I don't want to drag out my ps4 for Goth Coco

Nostalgic and challenging with improved graphics. It was on sale when I purchased, so it made replaying all over again that much more enticing. They don't make em like this anymore!

This game launches in an improper resolution You will likely have great difficulty playing if you are not using a 4k screen Not really acceptable to release a game that forces an uncommon resolution onto everyone, requiring people to make actual videos and walkthroughs on how to set the settings correctly in order to see the game, after launching the game

Doesnt work- very disappointed(no this is not a shitty review) Started game up 5 times and the resolution is bigger then my actual F-king monitor so i couldnt see half the god damn game window! I couldnt even fullscreen or resize the window(which in most cases is default but whatever) I have two monitors so idfk if thats why its spanning across both of my screens but i very dont appreciate it! Another thing is that it also said it wasnt the F-KING full version for some reason! (could be a bug as well) I just spent 4 dollars on a game i wanted and got nothing- (summer sale) Amazing! If ANYONE knows how to fix this, comment how- please i just wanna play the games i never could Games great, just cant FKING play it! Update: Got the game working!!

Great platformer but god do they not know how to program a hit box for Crash or programming the full range of the platform you may try to jump on and only end up sliding off because of god knows what.

For proper 120 Hz set the game to borderless fullscreen and with the program "Special K" enable "Clamp Presentation Interval" under "SwapChain management" under "Direct3D 11 Settings".

Smash bandicoot joined my discord server and started posting scat porn

Found out too late you can press tab to skip Crash's dance after collecting gems/relics

Fun, challenging and nostalgic game :)

Please bring CRASH TEAM RACING to STEAM. EDIT: Please bring CRASH TEAM RACING to STEAM!

85 hours of full on nostalgia and I finally 100%ed. Would recommend to anybody that likes platformers and would definitely recommend to anybody who played the PlayStation 1 and 2 games in the past! Next order of business is 100%ing Crash Bandicoot 4!

Even for a 90% discount the game hasn't aged well, and if you're coming to this without having played the games before then don't bother. I'm two hours in and I tried all 3 games, but I'm bored to tears. It's a tedious collection marathon and you are really expected to smash every box you see, and boxes are scattered everywhere, and you can't just smash them and vacuum up a power-up, but have to rock the directional pad up and down to collect everything I see. It interrupts the flow and isn't at all fun. Controls are loose and it all feels sloppy. You can't move the camera either to a better position so you can see where and when to jump over a ledge. You can't even really move in three dimensions since you run in a straight line, and yet the levels are more linear than Sonic Adventure. At least in Sonic games there are different routes and they're tied to verticalness and speed. There is no sense of exploration like in Mario 64 either, and it's boring. The story also feels juvenile and random with a talking mad scientist and furies pulling their animations out of hammer space. As I see it, the only thing fueling this franchise has been nostalgia of people who were too poor for their parents to buy them the Nintendo 64 and Mario 64. Crash isn't a memorable mascot like Mario, Sonic, or Master Chief, and his game didn't push gaming mechanics like other mascots did. Sony gave up on making him their mascot when hardly anyone was interested in playing more of his games, and good riddance.

Back in the days the camera was the reason of many rague quit finally they fix it .

It's a remake of the three classic, stress-inducing platformers. You're gonna rage. A lot. But hopefully, you won’t break your controller in the process. It's a really good game, simple controls. Amazing level designs, but there are a few things that annoys me: 1. They put time trial for Crash 1 and 2, because the levels from those two games are not made for speedrunning, especially Crash 1. Wtf were they thinking. 2. The DLC level for Crash 1, fcking "Stromy Ascent" is so fcking hard, you might wanna clench your butt while playing it. It was deleted from the origninal PS1 for being too hard, in fact it was harder than the main levels, even the other two games. If you're bad at controlling your anger/patience and need a shrink, Stormy Ascent got you covered. Oh it has a time trial too. Good luck, you're going to need it. 3. On Steam, the game has 74 achievements while on Playstation, it has 77. Extra 3 achievements, each for completing every achievements from each game. Why the fck didn't they include it in the PC version too??! I wanna put it in my showcase damn it. By the time I wrote this review, I had already platinumed the game. So if you love platformer games, I suggest you to grab this one, especially when it's on sale. It's a must have for a platformer gamers.

Game is Fun, Controls are Clunky Still Not so bad

Ohh the Nostalgia! how I miss playing these games back on my Playsation 1. The Three games were already incredible, and now with beautiful graphics, they have added new content here and there throughout all three games; but the most notable change is the inclusion of Coco as a playable character in most stages. This is a must buy for anyone who likes platform games and like a bit of a challenge easy 9/!0

this game is a reamgend of the classics they are perfect in every way

lo compré a 16 hace 2 semanas, nunca lo habían bajado de ese precio y hoy lo pusieron a 3.99

holy crap theres a reason this franchise died in the 90s LMAO game sucks

CB1: 5/10 CB2: 7/10 CB3: 7/10 Overall like: 6.5 Good platformer but has some flaws.

I bought this on Steam because I'm drunk. 10/10

Finally completed the game

The orange boy does indeed jumpeth. Faithful remake

Get Ready to say WOAH! in 3 Different Games!

Time Trials = Dark Souls for kids

Dash, dash dash, 10/10

I mean, its Crash what more do you need.

A timeless classic.

genuinely one of the worst games I've ever played

One of the best games ever made.
