Yeah, I was about to say the same thing. These guys are missing out! That's one of the best things in CTR. I couldn't believe that they could not powerslide lol
Once I heard about the remaster. I hunted down all 3 Crash games and the CTR as well. I like original releases better like usually with movies or TV shows. lol
Not exactly a kart one, but my favorite one is Blur. Mostly because it was approachable to both racing and kart fans, required skill on driving without being too demanding, and there was a lot of strategy on what power ups to pick and when. We spent so many hours on 4 player split screen back in the day. Split/Second was also great but that didn't have 4 player split screen.
Found Blur last week in a charity shop over here in the UK for $2, had never played it but it's a great game, sadly can't be played on Xbox 1 so still need a 360 or ps3 for it
@@Sterling20073 With friends or even online (when you could find others to play) was way more fun and exciting than Mario Kart ever was. Mostly because the game rewarded skill without requiring that much of it. On the other hand MK or similar games will try and help bad players as much as possible (on the Wii it was ridiculous it was a better strategy to remain dead last than actually be good at the game).

@Christoochi You're right but I thought that was my ceiling and that's as far as I could get so I moved on after trying for days. Thanks for the advice anyway 🙂👍
The only Kart racer in my life was Mario Kart but when the remaster of this was announced i went back & played this one, then Nitro Kart (on og xbox in 720p hd) then when i'd 100% all of them i got the remaster for xmas n just 100% that, great series & i'd love to see a new Crash kart racer
Brings back memories of buddy's and myself playing the original ctr as much as I enjoy the remasterd version you can't beat seating down with your buddy and beating him at the last circuit with an aku aku or missle etc
MY GOD! One of my top three Playstation 1 games; POWERSLIDING IS A MUST! If you know how to play it is a much more energetic game than Mario Kart by far! Fuck, I still play this on my PS2 all the time. Goddamn, it is remarkable what the Crash Bandicoot did to a racing game! What a masterpiece!
Crash Nitro Cart for ps2 and crash tag team racing always felt sluggish.. felt weird.. i always loved this.. the OG .. CTR.. i love that they remade it.. cause my and my friends always had little tournaments.. and now we can play online
@@Gmen2010champs Yes defo agreed, most of the Tony Hawk games on there are in 720p as well. Only game i've heard is best not played on og xbox is True Crime New York because it can't be completed because they shipped the wrong build that still had bugs lol
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. Thumbs up if you agree.
@Cinemassacre The Brawler64 Controller is better than the regular N64 controller because it's more comfortable, and the original is prone to malfunctioning over time.
Brad Jones was one of the only critics to like Cats. And... I didn't really like Mario Kart 64 back in the day, I actually preferred Diddy Kong Racing over it. But after replaying both games, I think I like Mario Kart 64 now than I did then. The original SNES Super Mario Kart is still my favorite game in that series. Crash team racing is a really good alternative to Mario Kart for the PS1.
@@mikematei He man; I thought it was the new webcam you were talking about some ~6 months ago. That being said; don't you agree that the image quality of you guys on the couch is - somehow - rather poor ? I'm not trying to be rude, it's just an observation...
Yeah I actually used to hate the N64 controller when it came out. Hence why I never got an N64. I recently got one this past December and the controller is not as bad as I thought before. I usually hold the middle of it with my left thumb on the stick and my right on the buttons. Of course it helps I have long fingers. lol Anyway after all these years, I am enjoying playing and collecting for the N64.
The ergonomics of the "analog-style" position of the N64 controller always bothered me. It just felt weird going from Dogbone-style, to dualshock-style to a controller that forces you do change hand positions depending on the game (and most games didn't even use the D-pad in either meaningful ways, or exclusively, save for Mischief makers). The Gamecube controller is really just the N64 controller anyways, just made with ergonomics in mind.
This game is better than Mario kart for super nes and n64. I will say I really enjoy mario kart for wii but its way too easy. CTR is much more of a challenge and has more replay and is more addicting, I beat it and am close to 100% completion. But the absolute king is Diddy Kong racing, and I owned and played the shit outta that game as a kid.
It's not just the graphics of the orignial, but the gameplay too. For lack of a better word, it's just... slow. I'd wager that the only kart racer that may be slower is the original Mario Kart on SNES.
The remake is incredible. Still prefer Mario Kart 8, though. I feel the powerslide is overly complicated in this. Other than that, this and Sonic + Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed are the best Mario Kart derivatives ever.
always thought crash bandicoot was a stupid lame mascot... and the crash kart racing games always looked weak to me compared to mario kart 64 and diddy kong racing... i think the regular crash games on ps1 are overrated as well.
And you sir can fuck off with your opinion, because The Crash Bandicoot Games were instant classics, and CTR is a better Kart Racer than Mario Kart because CTR requires skill to be the best of the best. Mario Kart doesn’t require skill. Stop being a Nintendo and Mario Kiss ass 😒
@@XZ-III for racing games the Wipeout games on ps1 are better than ctr. also the ridge racer games. i like the jumping flash games more than the crash games.
Crash Bandicoot had four racing games:
Team Racing
Nitro Kart
Tag Team Racing
Nitro Fueled
Tag team racing is my fav
You high
Few others on handhelds too.
We don't talk about Tag Team Racing, because it doesn't exist.
fulldeep that’s true. I didn’t mentioned those since I was focusing mostly on the console versions.
Came to this all excited....
No drifting. Boo
You don't know how to powerslide
This is the first time I have ever played this game in my entire life.
Yeah, I was about to say the same thing. These guys are missing out! That's one of the best things in CTR. I couldn't believe that they could not powerslide lol
It's sad how literally not many youtubers know how to do it. It's always pain to watch these.
they might as well not even play the game lol
Yeah I was like USE JUMP AND POWERSLIDE!
this hurts to watch. none of you powerslide in mario kart?
They call them self nerds yet more than 90 % of the games they play they don't even know wtf they are doing.
It pains me to see them play and not know the powerslide mechanics. And then even ask if you can drift. Live chat disappoints so bad...
I think CTR is the best racing game ever made
• dragonlord no you dont. You are only saying that because its in the video.
No I’m not I actually watched this video because of the game mainly
I consider this one of the best racers of all time.
Once you start 100% it, this game becomes a masterpiece.
Much better than Mario Kart in my opinion
Aaah yes, CTR aka the superior Kart Racer!
Better than any Mario kart game of the era. Maybe since.
The track design from Nintendo shames these Western developed knock offs.
@@reinforcedpenisstem Buddy. Don't embarrass yourself
@@orlandogarcia7084 I'm willing to risk "embarrassment" by claiming that Nintendo track design is the pinnacle of kart racing. I stand by that.
This and Crash Bash owned. I was an N64 guy but PS1 was the system my sitter used to have when I was a child lol
Fun kart racing game, Up there with Mario Kart 64, That is easily better than the other 63 Mario Kart games
Who in their right mind would want to play Mario 64 on a keyboard over, well, any controller with a joystick?
Mike needs to do a story mode stream of this
The greatest game of all time
Thank you for playing the original and not the remaster. This game was just the blast growing up and still holds up today!
Once I heard about the remaster. I hunted down all 3 Crash games and the CTR as well. I like original releases better like usually with movies or TV shows. lol
There's also Crash Nitro Kart and Crash Tag Team Racing. The latter had on foot platforming as well as racing.

Hey, there's a Crash Bandicoot kart racer on the PS2.
Yeah I believe its called Nitro Kart and I think thats what the remaster is actually based on. Not this game. But I could be way off on that
There is indeed, it's called Nitro Kart but it's best played on original Xbox with component cable because it's 720p hd & still looks nice to this day

Crash Team Racing OR Mariokart???
F-Zero!!!
The original Crash Team Racing really shows its age now after the release of Nitro-Fueled (which is, admittedly, one of the best kart racers ever).
Not necessarily, this one is still better imo. Low polys are a great fit, unbeatable soundtrack and overall charm.
It's not just the graphics of the orignial, but the gameplay too. For lack of a better word, it's just... slow. I'd wager that the only kart racer that may be slower is the original Mario Kart on SNES.
