This is the best Crash Bandicoot game ever made and it's not even close.
What's good about it, OP?
>>738546443I was just fucking talking about buying this on sale and now this thread pops up. You're not very subtle you fucking glowie.
it's good but not that good. 1-3 remakes are better imo
I'm a massive autist for the original trilogy, I bought 4 on release and got filtered by Run It Bayou. Tried it again last year and when I got to grips with the difficulty I actually really enjoyed it. I don't think it's as good as the originals but if they cut N-Verted mode and all the non Crash/Coco characters (maybe replaced it with an extra world) it would be up there. If I ever replay it though I don't think I'd go for 106% again.
2nd best, maybe. Crash 2 (PS1 version) is still the GOAT of all times. TFB knew this and Crash 4 is modeled after 2 for the most part. That said my personal favourite is Twinsanity. So Crash 4 does get into my top 3 of the Crash platformers.
Crash Team Racing disagrees with you.
>>738546904Cortrex and Dingo levels were fun imo. Tawna was fine but I just wished it was Nina instead.
>>738546443I agree, Anon.Except for the "nothing comes close", Crash 2 is neck and neck with this one for me.
>>738546443So good it killed the franchise.
>>738547156If you want my tops, I'd go with 4 > Twinsanity > 1 > CTR > 3 > 2.
>>738546443lol no its the racing game
>>738547448You got the symbols mixed up there. Remember, the alligator opens his mouth to eat the better food.
>>738547379Why do they get their animators to produce one stock pose when they know they're going to be splattering them over social media to create buzz?Why can't their social media women spend five seconds in blender to repose models their company owns to fit memes?
>>738547615The only custom render they actually made was for the gay pride parade. I'm dead fucking serious.
>>738546494I'm not OP but here's what I liked>Actual difficulty (definitely some bullshit but not as much as people make out to be)>Bosses were fun>Levels are huge compared to the old games (this is positive and negative)>Cortex actually feels competent for the first time since 2 instead of just being Uka Uka's bitch>The mask powerups are actually interesting>You can actually wear the biker outfit (this was something I've wanted since I was a kid playing Warped)What I didn't like>Bullshit hidden boxes (but you eventually get wise to where they'll be)>I didn't like Dingodile, Tawna or Cortex's playstyle very much>N-Verted mode is shameless padding>Most of the soundtrack is unmemorable>Fuck the Snaxx Dimension fuck everyone who was involved in designing those levels, fuck Rush Hour, fuck The Crate Escape (Food Run was OK)I wouldn't put it above the ND games but it's definitely better than WoC, for me the next ones would be Twinsanity and the 2 GBA platformers but I haven't played them in years so not sure how good they really are.
Based taste, OP.
>>738546443Honestly? I agree. Level design, bosses, unlockables and graphics were great all around.It's too bad the game is a bitch to 100%.
>>738547804>Only 5% of the game is actually funThe cope of crashfags.
>>738547379Nobody cares about blue hair outside of culture war brain-rotted boomers and it didn't affect sales or reviews"low-budget remakes that sell a gorillion killed the franchise" would be closer to reality. Crash 4 sold well but not COD well, and it was an actual new game with something more than pocket lint for a budget. hence the great satan Activision killed it.
>>738547725>Cortex actually feels competent for the first time since 2 instead of just being Uka Uka's bitchThe best thing, plot wise, that they did was take Uka Uka out of the game early so Cortex and the other Mads really got a chance to shine.Uka Uka just kinda sucks as a story element. He works in 3 because he was meant to be the big bad final boss of the trilogy, but every game after gave him and Cortex a CEO and office bitch relationship and it just got really boring.
>>738546443here, have your (you)
>738547930Activision did nothing wrong. They know better than you.See all the retards who were simping for Metaphor and its woke nonsense. It came out that the game was a flop. You need all the sales you can get just to recoup your costs.
>>738548025it was fun when Cortex and Brio take over and squash Uka in Mind over Mutant
>>738548025Crash 4 had characters take the story about as seriously as they should.After Warped there was this weird trend in early 00s where it became cool to just not care about shit. It led to scenes like this one where Uka Uka is treating global subjugation like a fucking middle management meeting. Crash is a goofy game, yeah, but the characters still care about shit. Cortex is still trying to destroy the world and needs to be stopped. Crash 4 I think did a good job recapturing that, though they went a bit too far into maudlin with Tawna. The characters were goofy and funny, but there were SOME stakes.
Say something nice about him.
>>738549028His playstyle was pretty fun.
>>738549028he's a big fat vile disgusting creature
>>738547702I can't tell if I should ask how is she gay, or how many of those white people celebrating black pride are actually gayThe man and the woman on the top right almost look like a husband and wife
>>738549028he gives us big lipped alligator moments like Don Bluth intended
>>738549304>nice
>>738546443This is probably supposed to inflammatory shitposting, but 4 was unironically more fun than Warped and every game past the PSX, the music was GOAT, and the character designs were soulful as fuck, way better than both N. Sane and TFB's own prior efforts on Reignited.Also I want to sniff Alt Tawna's legwarmers.
>>738550362I wanna hypnotize Alt Tawna and make her fall asleep whenever I snap my fingers.
its mid and gay
>>738550737I want to incinerate safe horny Tawna in a Neodyne (tm) reactor
>>738550362Crash 4 designs? Very good, actually.
>>738551352>Punk women with big butts are...LE BAD!
>>738550737Based
is it true that the remastered completely omitted the variable jump height/distance depending on how long you hold down the A button? is that really why they're fucking impossible to get through now as an adult at 60fps when i had no problem as a kid at 30fps i mean it makes sense but how do they fuck up something so simple so hard
Someone post the Uka Uka image, I've seemed to have misplaced it.
>>738550362I can't agree that the music was great. Most tunes that weren't lifting or sampling Mancell's comopsitions were pretty unmemorable in my mind. The gameplay having dynamic music (a completely retarded decision) doesn't help either because the music blends as a cacophony of constantly changing melodies and none of them sticks.>Level music >Then onrail section music that completely changes>Then you die and there's a meme jingle playing when you die, interruptiong the song>Then the song plays at a completely different part and you can't make the melody in your mind>Then there's a chase sequence and it changes againIt's just a mess. And the music is more atmospheric and part of the background rather than be on the forefront like on the PSX trilogy, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but the game doesn't lend itself to atmospheric music when it's so frantic and it's changing all the time.But yes, I would have sex with Alt Tawna until my dick fell off.
>>738549304>>738549624god damn imagine getting stuffed into his ____
>>738552285no. they're easy games
>>738546980>>738547604Why are racing game autists so retarded?
>>738546443is it still worth playing if im not a box or gem autist
>>738552685bed, trousers, snout, belly
>>738555481it's better if you're not into gems and boxes. going for those is a chore and not that fun
Coco is so hot-- cute in this one <3
>>738552074They are approved horny, so of course not
>BAD GAME IS LE GOODGet new material.
>>738546904>I don't think I'd go for 106% again.You managed 106%? I have over 80 hours on my save and still didn't manage it. I have no energy to do it anymore and I find it fucking insane that a "Crash 4" exists and I haven't fully completed it. I'm a huge crash autist, I have aku and uka replicas above my desk.
>>738556543If you make your game too tedious and unfun to grind for your biggest autists, something really wrong has happenee in the development processBut yeah I completely agree. I didn't finish N Sane Trilogy with the time relics in 1 and 2 for platinum but got everything else and I feel like C4 is just not worth the time. They missed the mark of half of the experience of these games, which is supposed to be the rewarding challenge. I literally think they made half of the game just bad because of that
It's fine but has a bevy of issues that I can't overlook. I'd play any of the PSX games and Twinsanity before it
>>738556543To put it in perspective, it took me longer to 106% Crash 4 than to complete a playthrough of Persona 5. >I find it fucking insane that a "Crash 4" exists and I haven't fully completed it.That was my thought process, Crash was always "my thing". Not sure why I was so bothered because thinking back the only ones I'd actually "fully" competed (all plats) were 1-3 originals and WoC, I only fully completed CTR and Bash after 4 (and I feel like I cheated on CTR because I'm PAL and used Penta so I'm going to redo it on NTSC one day).
I love Crash 4 and mourn not getting Crash 5.
>>738561608I still haven't watched that DYKG video about it. I don't think my heart could take it.
>>738562027I know YfB is working on Spyro 4, and they wanna do Banjo Threeie after that, but man, I'm gonna miss their take on Crash
>>738561608I'm more of a Spyrofag than I am a fan of Crash, I'm more upset we didn't get the crossover. It looks like it was probably just going to be Crash gameplay with Spyro environments and characters, but that's better than literally fucking nothing like we actually got.
>>738546443it has too much padding
somebody pls save Crash from Activision ;__;
>>7385464434 is good. Nverted mode is kind of annoying. The gimmicks do not justify having to do it for each lvl.You can't even do normal all chest run and then do a perfect nverted run because it does not count, but you cannot start with nverted because you need to do the lvl normal first wtf
>>738565083June 2026, trust the plan
>>738548043someone get this HOTHEAD outta here
>>738563984At least TfB is making Spyro 4.
>>738566079oh god I hope not
>>738546443No, it's not. It's bloated, N. Cortex won't shut the fuck up, and it's pozzed.
>>738546443It's really not. The parts where you have to play with that retarded SJW feminazi woman alone assures that
>>738566079Wait, what? Don't get my hopes up, who said?
>>738566373sovl
>>738566319It's not official yet, but TfB has been working on a Microsoft project since going indie and some Linkedin Resumes mentioned Spyro 4 before getting edited.Rumor has it TfB went to MS with three pitches when they went indie, Crash 5, Spyro 4, and Banjo Threeie. MS went for Spyro 4 since it aoparently had the most work done and could reuse some RIT and Crash 4 assets.
>>738567148>Banjo Threeie got passed overWell fuck, that's kinda sad. I don't even like Banjo as much as Spyro or Crash, but he's gone longer without seeing a release.
>>738567269If it's any consolation, TfB has been vocal about Threeie being the next project they wanna do. Threeie is interesting. MS didn't wanna greenlight it for ages, then when they were finally ready to greenlight it, Rare didn't wanna make it and MS didn't wanna force em. And Threeie had taken on such a mythical status by that point that no studio wanted the responsibility of making it until Toys For Bob apparently said "Heck, we'll do it."
>>738567425I'd expect Microshit to push for an N. Sane/Reignited style remaster of Kazooie and Tooie before jumping right to a new game, both for easy nostalgiabux and as a proof of concept.
>>738567656Banjo-Redoie
>>738551712Coco's completely smooth and underdeveloped flat chest...
someone stop me
>>738570820bro!
>>738570820Please..please don’t play those slopmakes. Play the damn originals ffs
>>738570820wtf are you thinking, trying to buy fun video games like that
>>738570948i already own both remakes and I just emulated the original after an hour of playing, ive been anti-remake since atleast oras, maybe earlier, but spyro re-radicalised me
>>738570820Pretty good deal to be honest
>>738552285Nah, from what i remember it is actually the opposite, you have MORE control over your jump, the issue is the hitboxes making you more liable to slide off platforms if you "barely" make a jump because shit is rounded and "tighter" instead of boxes with detection outside where the models are., which i think is why people find it "slippery".It is also worth noting N.Sane Trilogy has the jumps in every game while the OGs all have their own quirks, which means that muscle memory from the OGs can fuck you up.
>>738571367Crash 1 is where the jumps feel a little heavier, Crash 2 and 3 you not only feel but see that Crash's air time is slightly longer and higher jump, without counting the slide jump.N. Sane trilogy has this too just like the OG, TfB didn't screw up on that detail from Crash 1 with the rest. as for hitboxes I can't say anything desu, I just felt them the way it always used to be, Crash 2 is just more demanding than 1 with the precision jumps on the earlier levels due of the slide jump mechanic being a thing and basically eagers you to use it.
