this is the ONLY Games i buy this year, last year the ONLY one i bought is God of War, i ONLY buy games Once a year, YOU SHOULD HAVE THIS FVCKING BEST GAME EVER *so far
On a less spastic level, this game is great. The key ingredients are the honesty to the source material, the fact that the artists went all out with every different detail, and the fact that online mode doesnt detract from the initial game, but actually adds to it with maps that were never even in the original ctr getting the same full reboot as the main game tracks. Its great
I beat it as a kid and I wasn’t any legend at games lol not the relic runs and didn’t know any short cute really. I beat all the crash games as a kid. They weren’t the easiest but they aren’t that tough really. But Idk lol
@@adruuun Still, GTA 5 isn't that easy, though. (Well, if you're going to have gold in all of the story missions, that is) And I still despise the crystal challenges, still having a hard time playing them.
I have my problems with the game (especially in regards to characters, story, tone, etc.), but I had boatloads of fun on splitscreen mode as a kid. Stunt arenas, battle modes, you name it. I still go back to it from time to time, and while it can't hold my attention for as long as the original PS1 games (including Crash Bash) can I still have some fun with it.
As a racer it was not a good game but as a shooter ( shooting the other cars) Platformer it was some good casual fun to this day it had the best bowling mini game I have ever played it was very creative and fun
I remember playing the original CTR demo at Best Buy or circuit city. My parents bought it a few weeks later for Christmas and the rest is history. My whole family has been playing this game my entire life. My parents used to give my sister and I a full lap head start and still kick our ass. Now it’s them that need the head start.

We need a brand new crash game. Maybe a sequal to warped or something. Vicarious visions nailed the remasters and they have what it takes to make a good crash platformer.

Ok this is encouraging, a skill based kart game sounds great. Mario kart is such a mixed bag, with items becoming more important than anything else a lot of the time
@@unstoppablelu2794 If u think it's easy, and that person thinks it's easy, and THAT person thinks it's easy, wouldn't the game be hard then? (Playing online)
Hey gameranx,I have no idea why you guys don't have 10 million subs,you're my favorite channel,and I appreciate you guys for all the advise and opinions you give about games that are really fun to watch and play.
i loved this gem of a game so much growing up. i was so happy that it was being remade from the ground up without losing its flare. just yesterday my save data got corrupt and lost all of my time trials.. i was almost done all of beating Oxides time trials but its okay. im doing it all over again only because i love the game so much. Beenox, you deserve an award
I think you should have mentioned that CTR runs at 30fps on ALL systems, even on Xbox One X and PS4 Pro. And on the description you say it's on PC as well. Unfortunately it's not.
As a diehard Crash fan from the early PS1 all the way to the ill-fated Mind Over Mutant, I’ve been looking forward to this game for quite a while and to hear the inclusion of the later games, like Tag Team, and Nitro Kart, as well as possibly Spyro, makes me a happy camper. I can’t wait to see what else they do moving forward, and having characters from all across the franchise makes it feel like a complete package for the die-hard fan as myself, it also has me excited for what the future will bring in the way of a possible NEW Crash stand-alone adventure, maybe a Spyro crossover! Who knows. Just that this game looks stellar and I’m excited to get my hands on it. Thanks Gameranx for another dope video.
CTR has always been the my girlfriend and i's favorite kart racer. When this remake was announced, we lost our shit! The speed, the skill, the sound effects, all amazing and better then Mario kart. And the battle mode!!! The battle mode is so legit. So much more intense then every Mario kart.
There are no micro-transactions. The devs said you can earn coins and unlock everything in game by playing the game. An ode to how games used to be when you earned your unlockables rather then buy them from the get go in today's standards.
CTR was my very first video game. I went over to my friends house one time and they were like "try this" so I did and have been hooked ever since. They still have the working original that I'd go over to play but it had been many years before I did the PS4 version and remembered how hard it was! Anyways, THe TRoPHYs MiNeeeee!!! ❤❤❤
thought this was one of your best reviews yet in remaining objective and honest then you said it's better than garfield kart you dug your own grave there
I love this remake. It adds extra stuff with gorgeous graphics, yet it doesn't take anything away from the fun in the original. After playing the original I always thought the single player AI was a little on the easy side, so I'm happy they made it more difficult. Having said that, brand new players may want to play the 'Classic Mode' or set difficulty to easy first.
"the characters are cool..." "if you like crash games..." man they made a good work here even if you are oblivious on crash you will like them... also... aside from loads on original... CTR is the fun from mario kart (not that high) with the feel of Rock 'n Roll Rancing (with no actual obliteration of enemys).
I used to be obsessed with this game as a kid, i knew all the shortcuts, completed all time trials and other side events to unlock characters, i´m not quite sure but as far as i remember I managed to complete everything the game had to offer back in the day...Good times all around! Sadly I haven´t been able to play Nitro-Fueled yet since there´s no PC release so far ( dropped console gaming 2 gens ago )
It's a super addictive game, I bought a copy of the Nintendo Switch version a couple of weeks after the release date and 2 and a half years later, I hardly ever played any of my other Nintendo Switch games since, it's that addictive. A lot of people probably might disagree with my opinion of this game but I think it puts Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to shame.
@@HUMPHREYBALLKIDITUA At least the intended shortcuts ( like the small platform on Papu's Pyramid, the jump around the sharp corner in Polar Pass, the Cortex Castle one) could still be done. The ones like the Hot Air Skyway's fence jump is impossible, but ones like the Papu's Pyramid last corner jump is still doable provided you have enough speed and approach correctly.
@@mahiru20ten fence jump in hot air skyway (if what you meant the one that near the tunnel) is still possible. I done it with coco yesterday. Meanwhile that sewer speedway one is sill hard for me. I don't know why... That track seems broken compare to orginal.
You undersold it IMO. So happy with this one There is also plenty of content for single player with the story mode and time trial ghosts plus multi player online races and battles if you can’t get a couch co-op crew together
Nick Long he absolutely didn’t. 30FPS, no online co-op and cheating rubberbanding AI. None of these weaknesses he mentioned. Glad you love the game though.
I only ever seem to watch these videos AFTER I buy the game. EDIT: The load times have definitely been fixed, it takes about 15 seconds to load a new race, and it takes about 5 seconds or less to restart a race, at least on PS4 Pro.
sorry but i have a thought like CTR was originally made for all ages, kids especially CTR Nitro fueled is really fueled, filled by 90's and early 2000 lads. i bet
I honestly forgot about the later CTR games. My coworker actually reminded me about it. I was trying to figure out where all the other enemy characters were from. As for my favorites to race as: -Coco -Nash -Pinstripe -Tiny -Dingodile -crash -Kamido Joe
Reeks of microtransaction Activition: yes *adds microtransactions after lying about not doing so a few weeks later after launch* just so they could secure sales
OHH. There are 3 games! THAT'S WHY I DON'T RECOGNIZE 70% OF THE MAPS. Ugh. I'm a disgruntled old woman having only played the first. That was my shit. 🖤
Wow I've never played it before. I had a Nintendo 64 but I never had this game I only had Mario kart. I gotta play this and Spyro I never played that game either.
Honestly at first it took a while to for me to recognize the game in its entirety because I’ve played it when I was so young but now that I play thru maps and the world it all comes back to me. Personally I bought this game out of pure nostalgia and so far it’s been great. Favorite racer has to be Crash tho OG all the way
@@seanmartin355 That is true, Mario Kart is dependent on luck and the items and its drifting is lacking. CTR is more about drifting with as good items.
CTR, Diddy Kong Racing, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Speed Freaks, F-Zero, Street Racer, Wave Race, Micro Maniacs and Micro Machines are up there up among my ultimate favourite racing games.
My mom took my best friend and I to Pizza Hut back in 1999, not for pizza but for the demo disk that didn't even have voice lines yet. 20 years later this is the video I needed. Just watching the footage it looks like a 1:1 upgrade. Can't wait!
CTR Is My Favorite Game Of The Series. Crash, Tiny And Cortex Are My Favs To Race As. I Enjoy This Game Still Unlocking Stuff While Playing Love That! Just Like The Good Ole Days!
Mr. Bubbles Dude, that game was stupidly amazing and so much fun. Never played a racer that gave you so much depth to make your own track from scratch and with details too! I would literally invest to make a sequel for that game!
@@xXxXkuramaxXx ikr a part of my heart was broken when i found out that Sony shut down the ps3 servers. So many designs and tracks lost forever. The sad thing is that United Front Games wanted the game to last past the ps3 era, i’m still sad about their closure since they showed some real passion and interest in their game.

I remember a very good time playing the Ps1 version with my brother
"Can it stand up to mariokart? Thaaaat's up for you to decide..."
*WW3 begins
Also you should try hard mode dude
CTR and ModNation Racers are both better than Mario Kart, I also had to look @ other games but I forgot.
I was literally just thinking where’s gameranx’s before you buy!
Perfect timing like always ✌️
Was you literally?
Yup I was, instead I got gaming bolts one instead
Ok this is encouraging, a skill based kart game sounds great. Mario kart is such a mixed bag, with items becoming more important than anything else a lot of the time
Mario kart still the goat racer though.

Jake: The most important thing is learning to power slide and boost.
Secret Shortcuts: Am I joke to you?
Most of the secret shortcuts require speed to actually use, so yes, powersliding is the most important learning curve.
Hey gameranx,I have no idea why you guys don't have 10 million subs,you're my favorite channel,and I appreciate you guys for all the advise and opinions you give about games that are really fun to watch and play.
i loved this gem of a game so much growing up. i was so happy that it was being remade from the ground up without losing its flare. just yesterday my save data got corrupt and lost all of my time trials.. i was almost done all of beating Oxides time trials but its okay. im doing it all over again only because i love the game so much. Beenox, you deserve an award
It got the sports game of the year award. So good to see
Yo Jake don’t disrespect my boy Nash like that. 😤🦈
LoveThaShiz Nash is the most boring, uninspired character in this game
@@theburgerking746 I'd say the most boring character is Real Velo. Fake Velo was a much better character
Tragedy Right?!
LoveThaShiz
Activision: More characters coming soon!
Nash: Not soon, *NOOOOOW!!!!*
I think you should have mentioned that CTR runs at 30fps on ALL systems, even on Xbox One X and PS4 Pro.
And on the description you say it's on PC as well. Unfortunately it's not.
60fps crash team racing would be more anxiety-inducing than Doom (2016) for some, haha!
( not yet ;3)
(not yet) (2)
dang, didn't know about that. Tuff, but oh well, it'll still be fun
I never really liked any racing games but I loved the way CTR plays, one of the only cart racers that I ever played for any amount of time
As a diehard Crash fan from the early PS1 all the way to the ill-fated Mind Over Mutant, I’ve been looking forward to this game for quite a while and to hear the inclusion of the later games, like Tag Team, and Nitro Kart, as well as possibly Spyro, makes me a happy camper. I can’t wait to see what else they do moving forward, and having characters from all across the franchise makes it feel like a complete package for the die-hard fan as myself, it also has me excited for what the future will bring in the way of a possible NEW Crash stand-alone adventure, maybe a Spyro crossover! Who knows. Just that this game looks stellar and I’m excited to get my hands on it. Thanks Gameranx for another dope video.
CTR has always been the my girlfriend and i's favorite kart racer. When this remake was announced, we lost our shit! The speed, the skill, the sound effects, all amazing and better then Mario kart.
And the battle mode!!! The battle mode is so legit. So much more intense then every Mario kart.
There are no micro-transactions. The devs said you can earn coins and unlock everything in game by playing the game. An ode to how games used to be when you earned your unlockables rather then buy them from the get go in today's standards.
But There's a catch... u have to be always online to get wumpa and accessing pitstop
I bought game then watched this video.
YES, IM SAVAGE
StarStatus Villarreal felt that
Me too
I'm watching this while installing.🗿
Same
Same
It's not on PC, please fix that in your description.
I'd rather have the devs release it on PC and description stay as is
@@GreenFlame16 agreed
Do you know anything about a PC release?
@@martinpapp8491 not that I could find, sorry
I was addicted to this game too when I was a kid 🙂I don’t have this game but I’m excited to play this game again
CTR was my very first video game. I went over to my friends house one time and they were like "try this" so I did and have been hooked ever since. They still have the working original that I'd go over to play but it had been many years before I did the PS4 version and remembered how hard it was! Anyways, THe TRoPHYs MiNeeeee!!! ❤❤❤
Now if only they do a Pac-Man world remaster
thought this was one of your best reviews yet in remaining objective and honest
then you said it's better than garfield kart
you dug your own grave there
it broke my heart, when he says that he plays alone most of the time
One of the best reviews I heard from this game. Thank you gameranx. 😊
It triggers me that you didn't take any single shortcut especially Blizzard Bluff. There are 3 shortcuts at that track.
I love this remake. It adds extra stuff with gorgeous graphics, yet it doesn't take anything away from the fun in the original. After playing the original I always thought the single player AI was a little on the easy side, so I'm happy they made it more difficult. Having said that, brand new players may want to play the 'Classic Mode' or set difficulty to easy first.
"the characters are cool..." "if you like crash games..." man they made a good work here even if you are oblivious on crash you will like them...
also... aside from loads on original... CTR is the fun from mario kart (not that high) with the feel of Rock 'n Roll Rancing (with no actual obliteration of enemys).
I used to be obsessed with this game as a kid, i knew all the shortcuts, completed all time trials and other side events to unlock characters, i´m not quite sure but as far as i remember I managed to complete everything the game had to offer back in the day...Good times all around!
Sadly I haven´t been able to play Nitro-Fueled yet since there´s no PC release so far ( dropped console gaming 2 gens ago )
It's a super addictive game, I bought a copy of the Nintendo Switch version a couple of weeks after the release date and 2 and a half years later, I hardly ever played any of my other Nintendo Switch games since, it's that addictive. A lot of people probably might disagree with my opinion of this game but I think it puts Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to shame.
Literally just bought it before the video popped up. But I'm gonna watch anyway lol
Its crazy casue I was just typing on your judgement video to ask can you guys make a Crash Team Racing before you buy🤣
Thank you for Beenox for great remake... and hats off to Naughty Dog that revolutionize how kart racing can be so damn addictive. :')
I was worried that they wouldn’t include the adventure mode that I loved as a kid. So thanks for pointing that’s it’s in this one!
Oh my god this was one of my favorite games as a kid. Wasn't much of a Nintendo kid, so this was my jam. Can't wait to play it again, it looks great.
Keep spaming turbos bro, it help you a lot and don’t forget this game have a shortcut
Karel Rizky I cant use the short cut on the PS4 version I miss those years on ps1 🤣
@@HUMPHREYBALLKIDITUA At least the intended shortcuts ( like the small platform on Papu's Pyramid, the jump around the sharp corner in Polar Pass, the Cortex Castle one) could still be done. The ones like the Hot Air Skyway's fence jump is impossible, but ones like the Papu's Pyramid last corner jump is still doable provided you have enough speed and approach correctly.
@@mahiru20ten fence jump in hot air skyway (if what you meant the one that near the tunnel) is still possible. I done it with coco yesterday. Meanwhile that sewer speedway one is sill hard for me. I don't know why... That track seems broken compare to orginal.
Loved the original and I love this one! Just 100% adventure on med. Now time for hard 🤘😎
Are you insane?
Well, I wish you the best of luck with getting that "Yeeee HAW!" hard difficulty achievement, that literally no one has ;D
They’re about on par with N Tropy’s ghosts.
I may be insane, hard mode is going to destroy my soul 🙃
@@ios4888 *N. Oxide ghosts. (they're even harder than N. Tropy's)
You undersold it IMO. So happy with this one
There is also plenty of content for single player with the story mode and time trial ghosts plus multi player online races and battles if you can’t get a couch co-op crew together
Nick Long he absolutely didn’t.
30FPS, no online co-op and cheating rubberbanding AI.
None of these weaknesses he mentioned. Glad you love the game though.
Great reviews, i appreciate the fact that you dont put a little screen showing your face like a lot of reviewers do
I loved this game in 1999 as a 13 year old and still do in 2019 💪
I only ever seem to watch these videos AFTER I buy the game.
EDIT:
The load times have definitely been fixed, it takes about 15 seconds to load a new race, and it takes about 5 seconds or less to restart a race, at least on PS4 Pro.
I remember getting the ps1 for christmas when i was 5, and i got this game from santa!
Good times
Same here bro!
sorry but i have a thought like
CTR was originally made for all ages, kids especially
CTR Nitro fueled is really fueled, filled by 90's and early 2000 lads.
i bet
I honestly forgot about the later CTR games. My coworker actually reminded me about it. I was trying to figure out where all the other enemy characters were from.
As for my favorites to race as:
-Coco
-Nash
-Pinstripe
-Tiny
-Dingodile
-crash
-Kamido Joe
Reeks of microtransaction
Activition: yes
*adds microtransactions after lying about not doing so a few weeks later after launch* just so they could secure sales
I got it yesterday and I love it
OHH. There are 3 games! THAT'S WHY I DON'T RECOGNIZE 70% OF THE MAPS. Ugh. I'm a disgruntled old woman having only played the first. That was my shit. 🖤
But most of the maps in this video WERE from the first. :
Wow I've never played it before. I had a Nintendo 64 but I never had this game I only had Mario kart. I gotta play this and Spyro I never played that game either.
*Stay offline*
(This is a warning)
I loved playing battle mode with all my cousins back in the day, good times.....
Honestly at first it took a while to for me to recognize the game in its entirety because I’ve played it when I was so young but now that I play thru maps and the world it all comes back to me. Personally I bought this game out of pure nostalgia and so far it’s been great. Favorite racer has to be Crash tho OG all the way
So can I do a 1v1v1 with just me and my friends?
IMO it’s way better than Mario Kart. I’ve been waiting for this remake for a very very long time
Agreed
Looks like the same shit tbh
@@BigDaddy0170 the games way more about drifting than Mario Kart it's necessary to win races
@@seanmartin355 That is true, Mario Kart is dependent on luck and the items and its drifting is lacking. CTR is more about drifting with as good items.
Not close but keep telling yourself that...still a good game though
Crash Bash has to come next!!!!
Agreed
Agreed
No, no, no. Definitely Crash Purple and Spyro Orange.
What’s with all the Crash Bash love these days? Half of the mini games weren’t even that good. Mario Party it ain’t.
CTR, Diddy Kong Racing, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Speed Freaks, F-Zero, Street Racer, Wave Race, Micro Maniacs and Micro Machines are up there up among my ultimate favourite racing games.
My mom took my best friend and I to Pizza Hut back in 1999, not for pizza but for the demo disk that didn't even have voice lines yet. 20 years later this is the video I needed. Just watching the footage it looks like a 1:1 upgrade. Can't wait!
man I do wish they would remake old game. like dino crisis 2, tomba 2, harvest moon back to nature, etc.
I got it for my birthday on July 4th aka today
And I’m Canadian, *but besides that, I love this game*
Happy Birthday!
I loved Diddy Kong Racing
Doody Dong racing
Dingodile has always been my favorite crash character and ripper roo is a close second
SkullKing Gaming same!
CTR Is My Favorite Game Of The Series. Crash, Tiny And Cortex Are My Favs To Race As. I Enjoy This Game Still Unlocking Stuff While Playing Love That! Just Like The Good Ole Days!
If ModNation Racers could get a sequel, boy that would be amazing!!!!!
that game was slept on
Mr. Bubbles Dude, that game was stupidly amazing and so much fun. Never played a racer that gave you so much depth to make your own track from scratch and with details too! I would literally invest to make a sequel for that game!
@@xXxXkuramaxXx ikr a part of my heart was broken when i found out that Sony shut down the ps3 servers. So many designs and tracks lost forever.
The sad thing is that United Front Games wanted the game to last past the ps3 era, i’m still sad about their closure since they showed some real passion and interest in their game.
