Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Reviews
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy adamantly stays true to the original game.
A nostalgic love-letter to fans of the original Crash.
Tough as nails but just as tight as you remember, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is tasty trip down memory lane. The visual upgrade is nothing short of spectacular, and while the design of these iconic platformers are firmly fixed in the 90s, they're surprisingly playable today. This is a comprehensive compendium of a trilogy that set PlayStation on its way, and while not everyone will care for the old-school sensibilities, Vicarious Visions has pitched this package just right – doubters must now dine on Wumpa pie.
When all is said and done, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy delivers and feels like one of the better remakes CheatCC has covered. You can tell a lot of thought and hard work went into making this compilation a solid product.
In Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, players familiar with the original Naughty Dog games will be welcome back into the vibrant world inhabited by Crash, Coco, and their journey to defeat Neo Cortex. However, developer Vicarious Visions has done more than slap a fresh coat of paint on the games by creating a cohesive platforming system and visual language across all three titles.
Crash Bandicoot N’Sane Trilogy is great if you enjoy a challenge and have lots of patience and tenacity. But it’s not without its many flaws and annoyances. Nevertheless, this game would make a great addition to any retro gaming aficionado’s collection.
Crash Bandicoot N. San Trilogy delivers on what was promised, overhauling the visuals of the Naughty Dog-developed trilogy and successfully resurrecting the beloved bandicoot.
In Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy, timeless game design and quality upgrades come together to deliver three extremely enjoyable platformers.
If you have spent hours and hours in front of a CRT TV, grumbling, starting over and over one of the levels of the first three Crash Bandicoot to complete it 100%, you can go straight on the N.Sane Trilogy with your eyes closed. And if you've never played a Crash Bandicoot in your entire life, you can go on it too.

At the time of its release at the end of the last millennium, the original Crash series was an artistic masterpiece by all the meanings and that's what the version of N.sane Triolgy is proving to be and our standards today experience more than wonderful and has the potential to compete and even overcome a lot of existing games.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is a phenomenal collection of games with incredible updated visuals and a few cool extras.
Though its old-school sensibilities may prove more divisive with new players, the N. Sane Trilogy will meanwhile be an easy sell to long-starved fans; it’s a gleeful, often infuriatingly difficult nostalgia trip that they won’t be able to stop playing.
"If you own a PS4, I don’t care if you played the originals or not, now is the time to invest in Crash Bandicoot."
Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy is the anniversary collection fans deserve. Even if it is more challenging that it was decades ago.
Making the exact same game with brand new graphics is something no one did like this before. The game is a good idea to re-live the game as you remember, and it sets the debate if the gameplay should be adapted as well or not.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is really awesome. Well made classic games with modern visuals. It's not only for older gamers which remembers PSX era but for younger generations too.

When anything and everything isn't actively trying to kill you, being able to replay Crash Bandicoot's first three adventures is a nostalgic trip to when platformers were first exploring the possibilities of 3D and none were more experimental than the Bandicoot himself.
I'm sure these games are great for anyone who grew up with them, but I honestly don't get why.
While ultimately 'for the fans', Activision and Vicarious Visions successfully bring nostalgic PS One classic romping back into relevance, while including some extra bells and whistles that (save for some control slips) allow the originals a greater depth.
A solid remake that shows the highs and lows of the Crash franchise.
