Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy

Go back to crash's world was really fun. Crash Bndicoot don't waste much time trying to explain anything. It's simpl: your girlfriend was taken by Neo Cortex and you now have to fight your way throught th islands overcomeing challenges and foes to rescua her. The entire game feels like a journey.

I grew up with classics and they were spectacular the remastered version are spot on from them 2nd game is always my favourite Crash bandicoot game.

Plot

Crash Bandicoot, an experiment gone wrong, must chase down and thwart the evil genius Dr. Cortex's plans to raise an evil army of genetically mutated animals in this remake of the critically-acclaimed original 3 PlayStation games.

Cast

N/A

Verdict

Crash Bandicoot is one of those game series I grew up with so I am somewhat overwhelmed with nostalgia. When I heard about this being released I was very excited but at the same time sad that Wrath of Cortex wasn't included as that was always my favourite.

Crash Bandicoot takes you back to a different time, when games were hard and boy are they. I forgot how brutal Crash could be, especially if you're going for 100% completion, yikes!

So damn fun, beautiful and soul crushingly frustrating in places this to me is one of those absolute must owns for any Playstation owner.

Rants

There's not many games that have made me scream at the screen more than Crash, thankfully I'm not one of those petulant children who throws controllers or that could have gotten expensive. One mistimed jump during a time trial and boom start all over again arrggghhh.

Breakdown

Very enjoyable Highly nostalgic Lots of content Very difficult Frustrating at times.

This is a good package, and it is exactly what you would expect. Three great platformers, and they look beautiful. However, I had never played any game of the franchise and for my taste, it's a little too simple to get into in 2020.

"WHOA!" Whoa is right, what a terrific remaster of a fantastic original trilogy. After 27 hours of playing, I've finally completed the entire Crash Bandicoot trilogy. In this review I will be breaking down the pros and cons of each game and why, ultimately, this remaster, is definitely worth a buy.

Crash Bandicoot - 7.2/10

• Pros:
• Great Level Designs.
• Fantastic animated cut scenes.
• The right amount of levels, doesn't go on for too long.
• Good Boss Battles (Excluding the final one).
• Beautiful Soundtrack.
• Cons:
• Some bugs/glitches.
• There will be alot of times when you'll feel like you deserved to live for the jump you made in the game, and the game kills you. Sometimes the game kills you unfairly.
• That last boss battle is based on pure luck and requires no skill.
• The High Road (honestly, screw the high road).

Nor Pro/Con -+ Can be frustrating for some people, but I like a challenge, so this is not a pro or con. The only downright frustrating level is the "The High Road". God, I hate that level.

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back! - 9.2/10

• Pros:
• Fixes most of the problems I had with the first game.
• Fantastic level designs, much better than the first.
• Beautiful Soundtrack. (Again)
• Great Boss battles, once again, excluding that last one.
• Great gameplay additions, e.g. the slide.
• A lot of fun.
• Difficulty is massively lowered.
• Cons:
• The final boss battle is too easy and quite boring. Left me on a sour note after I first completed the game.
• Some glitches/bugs (like the first game, but much less in comparison).

Crash 3: Warped - 9/10

• Pros:
• Some great and interesting level design. Probably the best of the trilogy.
• Great gameplay addition, e.g. the double jump.
• Beautiful Soundtrack (Yeah, it deserves to be recognized three times over).
• Once again, a lot of fun.
• Cons:
• Frustrating final boss battle.
• Once again, some glitches/bugs, but not too noticeable.

Nor Pro/Con: -+ Might be too easy. I finished this game (not 100%ing it, but just finishing the Neo Cortex boss battle) in less than 3hrs.

Conclusion: A fantastic remaster that boosts a great soundtrack. Overall, stunning visuals and optimized beautifully (a pro that I left from all 3 games because I wanted to acknowledge it once in the conclusion), this remaster is definately worth a buy. I loved playing this, and I'd love for Spyro to be placed onto PC as well. Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is fantastic and I recommend it to everyone!

Final Score: 8.5/10
