- Crash Team Racing review. Classic Game Room presents a CGRundertow review of Crash Team Racing for Playstation 1.
A kart racing game for the original Playstation that showed that Playstation had established franchises. In the same style of Mario Kart, you race against other characters from the Crash franchise using weapons and power-ups. With a solid single player and amazing multiplayer, this was the kart racer for Playstation to rival Mario Kart.
This video review features video gameplay footage of Crash Team Racing for Playstation 1 and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Ryan.

This game was amazing, been playing it for 11 years. (i'm 15)
Ah, I've been playing this game ever since I first got my copy, Ive had such great times playing this, in all honesty, it may get me some hate, but I much preferred this game over Mario Kart.
I agree with you
Over Mario Kart 64? Definitely. I love the tracks in MK64, but the controls just aren't as solid.
mario kart multiplayer was flatout better like most n64 games, PS1 had overall better single player games n64 had the best multiplayers games, even tho ocarina of time was the greatest game of that gen
This was my favorite game growing up. It's basically my childhood.
I always loved Crash Team Racing. But there are some things I don't understand: the game is called "Crash Team Racing". I played the game before, and there are no racing teams in the game. In Crash Nitro Kart, there are racing teams. Crash Team Racing should have been called Crash Nitro Kart and Crash Nitro Kart should have been called Crash Team Racing. Makes no sense at all. And by the way, there never was a character named Dr. Grim. Thumbs up if you agree.
Dustin Nunn Then again, Naughty Dog didn’t make the games post-Crash Team Racing, so they didn’t come up with the name Nitro Kart anyway.
Mr grimm? He's on twisted metal not this
Dr. Grim and Perma are my favorite Crash characters.
3:28 "The Powerslide, which is awesome when you do it, but it's miserable when it happens to you" Do... Do you even know what a Powerslide is? It's drifting, then mini-boosting 3 times. How does this negatively affect you at all?
im glad you mentioned bash! that was awesome, wrath of cortex was pretty good to!
Oh man this takes me back... oh and Nitrous Oxide was a beast it was a shame he never appeared in one of the regular games ;D
1:42 I'm sorry, who? Who's Doctor Grin?
1:42 PERMA?
my nostalgia feels is over 9000!!!
This runs laps around Mario Kart 64 :D
it is great but i wouldnt go that far, mario kart 64 has much better scenary and maps due to the better hardware. they are both solid kart racing games though
by far the best racing game I have played!
Crash Team Racing and F-Zero X both completely destroys Mario Kart 64.
The nostalgia is string with this one...
It's string with me too
$hit
Much much better than any Mario Kart game. best Kart racing game ever made!
I still want CTR HD: Online! Make it happen!!!
Hi
This game was my childhood! It was my first non nintendo made game and i played it sooooo much haha. I have the levels memorized.
Dr. Grim? Purma? What the fuck?
Undertow - Y U NO Powerslide??
I remember finishing this game 3 times in one year once and one of my favourite classic games
played this so much as a kid, i can win any race, im so so fast on this.
the slide/boost mechanic is your best weapon.
i had the multy-tap, this game was awesome.
Reasonable point. If you're looking for a great multiplayer experience. N64 would be a better format than PS1. Usually I played CTR on a solo basis. Still, out of preference, I stand by my claim that Crash Team Racing is overall a better racing experience than Mario Kart 64. Thanks for the comment.
Same. This is my favorite racing game ever. I grew up with this too. I beat campaign %100 multiple times.
One of the best games EVER MADE! I want these to made as Classics HD PS3 re-release: Crash 1, 2, 3, CTR and Bash! Naughty Dog should do it!!
I spent most of my childhood trying to beat Nitrous Oxide's Ghost in Time Trial. I was thankful when I accomplished it.
Dr grim ?
a demo of this came with a pizza hut sampler CD. The pizza had stuffed crust and the sampler,
It had this, tony hawks pro skater and some other sweet ass games.
Man, another game from my youth! I used to play this when i was 6 in Argentina. I had Crash 2 and Team racing and man, were those some fun games! I HATED that Boss race with Riptoo. All the TNT crates drove me crazy! But thanks for reviewing this game, really brought back some memories ^_^
Best game i've ever played to this day.
PS: Reviewer, you need to do the power slide, it's essential for this game!!!
Still have it all these Years
The way to get the most out of this game is through powersliding. The speed difference between spamming the powerslide and just driving how you were in this video is enormous.
GeneralDingo YES. My dad for some reason could never get a grasp on power sliding and I always use to destroy him! Power sliding op. There's rarely a moment where I'm not power sliding. I actually think this game feels boring without doing it
wish I still had this! I lost it a year ago, along with I-ninja, Road Trip Adventure and Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex. :(
Crash nitro kart and Crast TWOC deserve to be in that list too!
They were great games
Great review. Did you call N.Gin Dr. Grim, that's hilarious and kind of a cool name. But seriously i love this game.
What you could have said was that they took Diddy Kong Racing, took out the best parts (the plane, bosses that don't ride in vehicles), and slapped the Crash Bandicoot logo on it.
I had them both. I played mario kart 64 for about a couple of months. BUT i play ctr even today. Ctr is my all time favourite game
Best racing game of all time!!!
I loved this game! So Much Fun!
Back when tiny didnt look looked like a tank this game is epic as though i still love it and play it
I'm still surprised that Mario Kart hasn't adopted boss races. This and Diddy Kong Racing did them so well.
Use to love playing these game with my little brother
haha...I remember how me and my friends would play this for hours when I was little
i had a demo of this and i played the demo more than the other racing games i had like Grand trismo etc etc.. yeah this game is that good!
I also made a review on my channel. Not really a review, but more like talking about my memories of the game. I loved this game as a kid, it kept me very occupied
If only Mario Kart 64 was as fast and exciting and varied. I don't think any MK game's a touch on CTR.
Alot of my friends growing up had N64s and often talked about playing games like Mario 64, but having the Crash and Spyro series i didnt care, but then came Mario Kart and for once they had point.......until this bad boy came out. This game was my ultimate trump card that I didnt need Mario, and Crash was just as cool if not better. A shame that his games kinda fell by the wayside later, but everything up until Nitro Kart was solid gold.
I missed the old Crash Bandicot Games, they were so much fun.
They should have World Championships for these kind of games. even tho the game is over 15 years old. it still would be crazy fun to hook that game up online on the ps3. Because i never lose and i even set the difficulty to super hard which I highly recommend,
its def challenging. Can't imagine what racing online with 2 billion other people would be like!!! best ps1 game
This, by far, is my favorite kart racing game, ever!
Wish they remade this game for modern consoles. I still play it on my emulator.
my chilhood! wish i still had this game
my all time favorite kart racer even though i love mario kart
I love this game growing up. I hope one day naughty dog brings this franchise back. I think a lot ps3's would get sold if they did.
I got this game for $1.00 used, complete a month ago. Worth every $1.00. Yes, I'd buy that for a dollar!
4:50 Where LMFAO stole the wiggle dance from.
still super fun to this day.
best kart racer ever.
How would you say this game compares to LittleBigPlanet Karting, ModNation Racers and Sonic Racing? I'm looking for a kart game and that's why I want to know. I know this game doesn't have online and I'm fine with that btw.
There is a glitch on the PSN-Version! I played it on the vita and in later races the camera always switches to the front and you cant see where you driving.
This is my favorite kart game of ALL TIME
I had this game when I was young but the CD got scratched and I couldn't proceed past the 3rd world.
This was the first video game I've ever played before in my life
God I missed out. The only kart games my ps1 friiends had in the late 90s was that muppets racer.
Best kart racing game ever...i love mario kart as much as the next guy but CTR is just legendary...can't find anything wrong with it
YES
My favorite Kart racing game of all.
Why not review "Speed Freaks", remember this one?
I remember that first blue boss... that bastard gave me nightmares as a kid lol.
This looks like so much fun!
Love this game to pieces
Played the ever loving fuck out of it as a kid
Only complaint though is that the carts feel incredibly slow for some reason
Ah, I remember that dance when Crash won a race. Hahahaha, memories.
i remember buying this the day it came out. Played the shit out of it. Now it's in my garage somewhere :/
One of the best racers I've ever played.
I loved this game as a kid. I still own my copy of it. I hope Naughty Dog decides to start working on the Crash series again instead of lending its license to other developers.
Yes, that's right.
my favourite game since i was 3
This was far superior to Mario Kart in the days, too bad they couldn't keep up.
I love Mario Kart, but to be honest, there always seem to be better kart racing games out there. Mario Kart on the Wii was really unfair, but it did manage to be the best kart racer for years. At the moment i feel Sonic has the best kart racer with Transformed, that game is tough, but not unfair, and it has so much variety in the courses! Fantastic kart racer!
and i mean i never lose cups. when super hard is unlocked its very hard to win every race in the cup. ive never done it ...ive won three but never all four. ALSO cool boarders2 would be intense online
How the hell did we EVER play 4 player split screen on those old low res CRT TVs?!
The best mascot kart racer to this date by FAR.
Mario Kart, Sonic allstars, Diddy Kong? foget all of them
this was much better
This was my Mario Kart growing up... also, Nitrous Oxide scared THE PISS out of me!
Crash Team Racing is even better than Mario Kart 64. This was Naughty Dog's last Crash Bandicoot game, and they did a great job. I grew up with this one.
i finished this game when i was a kid without using powerslide boost cuz i didnt even know that such thing exist. now i dont own PS and can play only on epsx...
best game ever! second best is tekken 3 ;]
@RENDEEz2k It was like owning both consoles. I had Nintendo they had SEGA. Then when the Saturn and PS1 came out, I had SEGA and they had Playstaion, so no one missed out on anything.
I have so many of Sonic the Hedgehog and became such a big fan, but I never actually owned a Genesis.
As I replied to the other person directly below about Crash Bash. Naughty Dog didn't produce that one. They had already stopped making Crash games.
This game (and the original 3 Crash games) is the reason I deeply regret having sold my Ps1 :(
for some reason this game has a forever loading time when I play it on my ps1, it doesn't happen on the ps2 :/
I played this game so much I actually can stay ahead of the bosses once I get in front of them, and I don't mean like a close race, I smoke those guys. XD
They made.. Crash.. TALK???? WHAT THE FUCK??? Im so proud and pleased that i did grow up with ND's Crash games.
Thanks, man. That's awesome. :)
Yeah this is definitely the best cart racing game ever. If u didnt play this as a kid, you missed out on a big chunk of childhood
Question how do you do Powe slides I got this game today and I thought it was like Mario Kart where you just hold R then release it but nothing happens here
I think this here is the first game, with a major video game character, that has successfully ripped off mario kart.
Sonic Drift came before it but it wasn't either sucessful nor was actually able to copy the mario kart feel
But the AI is so easy on MK64 though. Yeah, I guess they cheat, but now that you mention SMK, well, those AI which are definitely far more difficult than the MK64 ones, indeed cheat. They jump over items by jumping like 10 feet in the air when the player can only jump that high using a feather. They sometimes jump over the shells you shoot at them.
@TheSmackerlacker
Yes you can.
Crash had the potential to be as big as Mario had it remained in the hands in naughty dog, yet they did the right thing i feel, stop before it got tired
That was developed by Universal Interactive Studios (Vivendi Games), after Naughty Dog stopped making the Crash games.
I much preferred Diddy Kong Racing over Crash Team Racing and Jak X Combat Racing
So how would you think an Uncharted racer would play out if Naughty Dog stuck to the pattern?, a parkour racer?
kart 64 had a way better multiplayer, better track design, this had a better story i guess, for a game 3-4 years older not that better than a 1996 kart game lol!
Agreed. I was like who the fuck is Dr. Grim?? This really is the best kart racer though. Even better than the original Mario Kart imo.
The character selection is SOOO similar to Jak X!
CTR improved what MK64 did wrong. I have both games at the time, even MK64 have better graphics and no loading times at all, CTR was the best of that generation.
