Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Review - Square Eyed Jak

Crash 1 being better makes this whole collection worth is in my opinion that game was in dire need of improvements. Fuck The High Road tho lmao

[@SquareEyedJak]

For sure and yeah, FUCK The High Road! :P

[@nucleor7268]

Ahhh, another Crash Bandicoot review. Like good times…

[@bbjb7459]

Very true. Crash bandicoot was a ps1 classic. Crash bandicoot review is a Square Eyed Jak classic.

[@Einamu]

the only legitimate complaint I have with these remakes is the jumping mechanics and the ice physics

[@RadioTails]

One of N Brio's Bonus levels (which you have to hit all the boxes now), I swear Crash couldn't make it. Many retries, I did it!

[@ezioauditore3294]

[@langfordjeremy100]

Seriously wish they would update it

[@warpbait2]

Great review. I did like some of the extra details they added though, like tawna being re-captured after each bonus stage, and the addition of fake crash in the background of some levels in the first 2 games after you beat them, and the audience in the stands during tiny's fight throwing cheese and tomatoes at you.

[@SquareEyedJak]

Yes, love all of those details. I just find it disappointing that existing details are kind of lacking

[@warpbait2]

fair enough and I agree with that 100%

I guess it's a nostalgia thing? The N Sane Trilogy was my first time playing Crash Bandicoot and I love the soundtrack. My wife, who grew up with the PlayStation classics, prefers the originals. I tried listening to them but I just can't get into it lol.

[@jerimiahsaiah]

That beginning was legendary. LOWER-TIER DISNEY VILLAIN HAHAHA and I completely agree with Crash 1 standing out w/ the N. Sane Trilogy. It's somewhat my favorite just by a SPEC in comparison to Crashes 2 and 3 lol. Relics are also competitive as fuck now so that's cool! Also 2:12 fuckin' kills me dude LOOOL

Something i really loved that VV included in the game was a Leaderboard for time trails.

I feel like his falling speed is faster, so most of the jumps are harder to do, like the jumps from the turtles in the High Road.

[@StuD44]

Exactly.

Since when did you play crash? I’m a big fan

[@SquareEyedJak]

Hey guys I hope you enjoy this one! If you're interested, I'll be live streaming the final relics for this game over the weekend at the normal times: Saturday 7pm Eastern for the US Sunday 12am for the UK and Sunday 9am Eastern for AUS So come along and watch me fail at being fast like Sonic, but staying cool like Crash, cheers!

[@frotogano6583]

Jak I Have The Same opinion As You.... Crash ! Was a Whole Lot Better And Is More Fun To Play... Crash 2 Does Not Feel The Same And i Would Rather Play The PS1 Version... But i Have Not Played Crash Warped In The N.sane Trilogy Yet... and Yes i Found Crash 2 To Be Harder And i am Usually Good at It On The PS1... Well Have a Good day. and I will Soon Do a Review Of This Game.

[@vanthursday]

"It wasnt scary enough" Me: Ah its because you grew up.. > >

[@Luonto6]

Tbh all of these reviews with heavy warnings and lot of nitpicking basically means that a person is fan to the bone of that spesific thing and just wants to improve his favorite things, in this case Crash bandicoot francise as well as humanly possible. I agree with many of the things you said. Like it annoys me a bit that aku aku masks in remastered Crash 1 do 360`s unlike in the original which is cool, but unfortunately when u pick crystals etc in Crash 2/3 those dont spin at all... By no means gamebreaking but worth pointing regardless haha!

[@bandicootsauce4569]

An excellent review, I must say. I like how you weren't afraid to give the little problems a thorough beatdown while still finding a lot to enjoy overall. To me, that's always been the best quality about the Crash series as a whole. For everything it does wrong, it does three things right in my eyes. No, we're NOT here to talk about Boom Bang or Purple, fanboys, so shut up. And I concur to the idea of seeing at least one more new Crash game to round out the package, or failing that, a remaster of CTR and/or Twinsanity. And yes, a remastered Spyro trilogy would be nice as well, not least because it would be my first time playing those particular Spyro games and finally seeing firsthand what all the fuss is about. On that note, I'll leave you and everyone else in this comment section to it, Jakky-boy. Have an N. Sanely great fucking day!

[@Lykosys]

Glad this video didn't come out any sooner. I didn't watch any other reviews of this game, after watching your other shit dude, I knew this was the only one I needed. Played through all 3 and you brought up all the issues I had. How fucking SICK is Toxic Waste's soundtrack though?!

[@SquareEyedJak]

Thanks mate, and yeah Toxic Waste music is SOOOOOO good! :D

[@vgamissos5983]

I don't know I kinda like the NEW slippery climb theme song... as much as the original I know the NEW music isn't as scary but still it does have a groovy tune!

[@AlyssaFoxah.]

I was really worried for Warped as well. I'm also glad I'm not the only one who felt mildly disappointed that N. Tropy wasn't lingering in the background in the opening cutscene.

[@siloPIRATE]

IIRC I was looking for him in the background. Was disappointed

[@bbjb7459]

I think this review was very accurate. Jak analysed the game very well and delivered it amazingly. Also let's all remember that the game has just come out, and Jak has got the review up already. Bra fucking vo *claps hands*

[@ohsurewhynot6436]

Having played and completed both the originals and remakes all in the past month, I still prefer the originals for 2 & 3. The physics are better, control is more responsive, voice-acting is superior, gameplay is faster, and the music is better overall (though some tunes I do prefer the N. Sane version of, particularly in Crash 3). The N. Sane trilogy is an appreciated effort from Vicarious Visions, and I'm grateful that they've brought Crash back into relevance...but when it's all said & done, the originals just play better as actual video games. N. Sane is just...prettier.

[@MusicJunkie37]

OhSureWhyNot I agree. Though some levels especially in the original Crash 2 looks way better such as the snow levels. The music is also better in the originals imo. (2nd, 3rd games) I really enjoyed Crash 1 on the remake though. And it's the prettiest one.

[@mohez1145]

I'm surprised, but I agree with you, Jack about the whole "spoiling the game" shit, I have the amino app and i joined the crash community, I enter and see a picture of the remade N. Tropy, it's like, WHY?! I can't avoid it!

[@SuperLEGOMADNESS]

It's such a shame that less people are into Crash 1 in the remake. The changes they made were pretty small if you think about it but they really transform the game into something great. I'm also really glad to hear you share the same thoughts as me regarding the relics on the old games. I found them to be such a great way to breath some extra life into the older titles. I'm also glad to hear that you hated everything getting spoiled ridiculously early. I fucking hated that and no one else seemed to be bothered by it. Great video and great analysis all throughout!

[@Petronious]

[@WH250398]

The only thing i hate is the jumping. In crash 1 especially, i CONSTANTLY undershot my jumps. The hitboxes were very inconsistent as well.

[@slayer4932]

I see nothing wrong with the jumping mechanics. It makes it more difficult since we have to be precise with timing them. In the originals, most jumps can be easily made even if you screwed up on it a little.

[@Mylesshow]

Proud I could finally support the channel and help make content like this possible. Keep it up Jak, you're kicking ass.

[@SDK2K9]

The High Road.... So many lives were lost during that level. Even ended up rage quiting but I think I can do it with less deaths now.

[@RoseSupreme]

0:52 *THANK YOU* for saying that. God, I'm so sick to death of the idiots who can't tell the difference. Activision loves calling remakes "remasters", and it in turn has gotten other uneducated people making the same mistake too. It bothers me so much, as petty as it may sound.

[@Megumi_Bandicoot]

[@OckhamAsylum]

Nice review, Jak. I'm fucking pumped to see Crash back, for the longest time I thought for sure that Mind Over Mutant was the final bullet to the brain for the series and we'd never see our old orange boy again. I'm so happy that I was proven wrong in the best way possible. The best part for me is that it actually gives me hope for a Spyro remake, which would make me fill my pants with immeasurable quantities of joy.

[@RezzyDevil101]

This is the most fair and well thought out review of seen of this game so far, great video mate. Looking forward to the Spyro Remaster review whenever that game gets made.

[@SquareEyedJak]

Thanks dude, glad you enjoyed it!

[@c.syde65]

To be honest I would absolutely love to see Vicarious Visions pump out an all new game with the same models and graphics as in the remade trilogy, or at least an all new series of levels. It would be nice to see a more Naughty Dog inspired game or more levels that aren't remakes of previous games. Like Future Tense is an example of this but it's only one level. I absolutely love the N. Sane Trilogy as much as the original trilogy and although we still don't have that new Crash platformer that stands tall with the Naughty Dog ones, we do have that Vicarious Visions remake which is just as good as the original.

[@Jooj0620]

Wow, that fast? Impressive Jack, nice work mate

[@spiderbite1978]

Been waiting on this review for a year. Proud of ya man. You were a trooper. Thanks for the video glad you enjoyed yourself. Need to play ratchet and clank. Its a good play like the original.

[@SquareEyedJak]

Haha cheers mate.

[@TasmanianGecko]

Since this game has done well in sales and criticalnreception, hopefully we'll soon see new Crash games, and a Spyro remaster. I just hope if we do get a Spyro remaster, that it runs at 60 frames per second instead of 30.

[@decadentgamer3108]

I had to play through the games before I watched any reviews as I'm going to review the game myself but as soon as I finished, your review was the first one I had to look at because your experience with these games is just amazing. And holy balls this was great! Again, you were harsh but like always, it's coming from a genuine place which shows just how much you love the series and know the series can be truly great. I definitely agreed on your comments about the music, it really goes to show that music does play a big part in immersion and it's a shame they made the creepier songs like Slippery Climb or The Generator Rooms sound less intimidating than they originally were. Admittedly, there's not much I can say about the original first game as I didn't play it as a child and when I played it on emulator, I only made it up to Sunset Vista and got stuck there and the laptop I was playing on crapped out and died on me and I just wasn't wanting to start all over again at the time so yeah, I definitely can not go into depth with comparing the games but I'll take your word for it because you've played the game so many times. Crash 2 was pretty good but yeah, I think they could've done things a little better like the graphical effects on the projectors when talking to Cortex or Coco and Polar's stiffer/awkward controls. But fr the most part, I think it did just fine. Crash Bandicoot 3 was the one I was anticipating the most because it was technically the first Crash game I owned as a kid but yeah, I also agree that there were a few things off with this game. I know you didn't say much about the vehicles but I personally couldn't stand the Coco's jet ski levels, Fucking hell controlling that thing was bloody awful. I mean, I didn't die during them but I just didn't like the way it felt. Everything else though was just fine I thought. Overall, I enjoyed watching your review and I'm happy that you addressed the first thoughts and the aftermath. I remember your Crash hate" video and how it was negatively received but the early trailers really weren't that good and could've been better. But I'm glad you ended up enjoying the game and taking back some of the things you said in that video and even better, this little trilogy showed that Vicarious Visions definitely has the drive to deliver some pretty great games because at least for me anyway, their games were always on the hit/miss (mostly miss due to floaty/awkward controls/physics) but this trilogy shows that they have come a long way since their humble beginnings. Anyway, I can't wait to do my own review on this game but great review man, looking forward to see the next video and I hope that you continue to enjoy the leftover stuff this game has to offer, plus the DLC that is coming. :)

only one problem I have with this review, a missing quote from your channel that always cracks me up: LIKE CRASH THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@deank8374]

It's like they went all out on remaking the original, all the details were there and the graphics and environments were so much better then the other 2 remakes. Yes the graphics are amazing overall but crash 1 seems to have more effort put into it. Maybe they made the original the most graphically and detail intensive game to touch everyone's soft spot.

[@vgamissos5983]

no they made the original more graphically and detail intensive than the other 2 because they started making crash 1 them moved on to 2 and last 3 that is why crash 3 is lacking some details JAK xD I think the game was a bit rushed... btw watch beta m's channel! he found many glitches in the game

Am I the only one who feels like, because the N. Sane Trilogy improved the controls in the first game, that Slippery Climb is more fun now that it feels fair? In fact, it's one of my favorite levels. But yes, the music sucks.

[@SquareEyedJak]

Once you know how to do it, Slippery Climb is easy and more enjoyable in the original too, for the record.

[@RadioTails]

Slippery Climb can be hard at first, but honestly, it's quite a easy level. Now Bullshit in the Dark, that level can buck off.

[@FireStormDel]

I think you've covered this remake the best ("Crash Bandicoot has become Dark Souls"? Really?), and honestly, when it came to talking time trails for Crash 1 & 2, I was half-expecting you to fit in the "Like Crash 3" gag from your Wrath of Cortex review, but I do have some issues with the game, and be warned, long wall of text ahead: The hitboxes do feel a bit off, in the second gate level in Crash 1, I got killed by one of the fires, despite a visible gap, and with some jumps, I sometimes either undershoot or land but because I wasn't on the platform proper, I'd slide off and die. The slide in 2 and Warped feels delayed, compared to the original where it was instant, there's like a briefly delay, same with jumping then crouching, Crash/Coco stall for a second before crouching, and it pretty much got my killed with the electric gates that required sliding in 2, though when it comes to controls in general, I would have kind of liked it if they had Crash 2/3 controls for 1, with 1 & 2 being able to have the abilities from Warped usable along with the Crash Dash in 2. One minor thing I felt could have been fixed in Crash 1 is the order of Heavy Machinery and Cortex Power, since it's clear with it's introduction cutscene, even in the original game, Cortex Power was supposed to be first, and it was this way in one of the original game's prototype builds, but was changed for the final game, I just think it'd make sense to fix that weird switch around. With the music, some tracks do appear to be missing some parts to them, most of which you can only really pick up with when playing with headphones, and to an extent, I do wish an "Original Music" option was available, though I imagine Vicarious Visions would have to pay Josh Mancell to use the original tracks he made. One funny oversight I noticed is that in Crash 2, when you leave the levels without crystals and Cortex tells you off, he still says look above the doors to see a slot for the crystals, when because of the addition of relics, the slots for crystals, gems and relics are now at the side of the portal entrances, which obviously means they didn't alter the script to follow this change. I don't really like how they kept the original challenge of having the "No Dying" rule for coloured gems in Crash 1, since it seems stupid to change it for clear gems, but keep it for coloured gems., Having relics optional in 1 & 2 is good move, even if some times for gold and platinums in all 3 games do feel a bit unreasonable to me, since it feels like Crash/Coco need jet engines in their asses along with the Crash Dash, I could only ever get gold relics in Crash 3, where in Crash 1 and 2, I've managed to get platinum relics. Not to mention, if they were going to go through the effort of remaking the original trilogy, they could have added more cutscenes, like showing what happened with Tawna after Crash 1, Coco's origin story, showing how Cortex got out the crystal caves after his first defeat, even what happened to the bosses in general and maybe some Uka Uka build up in Crash 1 & 2, since the story could have been a lot better this way, even if it would be showing the obvious, it'd be nice to know there's an overall story advancement. I know it seems like I'm crapping on this game because I've found faults in that annoy me, but I still enjoy the game when I actually get into it and have fun when I'm not losing my patience over missing a box because I wanted to get the gem or I feel the game screwed me with a silly death, since the games are meant to be about fun. Not to mention, I should be thankful, not counting mobile games, it was almost 10 years since a proper game, and I honestly had a feeling there wouldn't be anything before the game was announced, especially since it was almost Crash's 20 Year anniversary. And with some things, it does makes the original layouts look better than before, and they even add details that I could never see in the original games, like the Tawna tokens actually looking like her instead of what appeared to be a guy in drag dressed up as her, or even the Time Twister being out in the ocean. Also, Coco being playable and playing like Crash is awesome, in Wrath of Cortex, she was a limited version of Crash, whereas here, she can do what he can, so playing as Coco is nice, and to me, it's how you do it with having a male and female character in a platformer (for the most part), both being equal in terms of what they can do, even if it's only a cosmetic change in terms of the character. The fact you can use the D-Pad for "classic controls" kind of wraps it up nice for me, since the original games were made when the analogue sticks for the PS1 were yet to become a thing and it's more comfort thing when playing the originals or the N.Sane version, since some jumps and the like are better done with a more accurate D-Pad input instead of sailing to Jupiter with the analogue stick. Also, knowing they're doing a Lost Treasures DLC that's no doubt the cut levels from Crash 1 makes me wonder if they'll do DLC levels for 2 & Warped, like new levels for both, but for 3, maybe new levels based on time periods not used in the original game, like Wild West America, Edo-period Japan and Ancient Greece.

[@e1iteyoshi998]

I'd say the 7-9/10 range is appropriate for this remaster. If anything this is the best review I've seen that gave the remaster a 7 so far. I just got done reading the review from Gamespot (which I hated) and it kinda made me appreciate reviews like this a whole lot more since you went into a lot of detail with the review.

A 30 minute review from you, I'm in Heaven! Unfortunately, though, even after watching this it's like ugh... I still feel no excitement whatsoever for these games. I've played levels from all 3 and I'm just not feeling it really. I certainly don't dislike it by any means, and I can see how much effort has been put into these remakes (though the warp rooms and holograms in Crash 2 do look disgusting) but for some reason I can't seem to get on with it. I really wanted to feel blown away and feel ''wowed'' by the whole experience, the same way I felt as a kid when playing Crash for the first time, but it just didn't happen. Still, I'm happy that you and many others are enjoying playing them, and it's nice that a new generation of kids get to enjoy Crash now. Here's hoping this'll encourage VV to make a brand new adventure for our little orange buddy :D

Having a video that runs for 30 minutes, whilst trying to keep it entertaining would be hard, but you did it with ease. You gave each game well-rounded time which really suited your video. An in depth discussion about the games also helped the review, as it made it feel much more honest, unlike some prepaid shit from GameSpot and IGN.... I could imagine little things being so annoying, as if you've played something so often as this franchise, it's only common sense that you would see things different.I quite liked this as you weren't afraid to back down from your opinion, and the opinion matter. I feel that a lot of players who played the originals would have a similar viewing to you with these issue. For newcomers to the series they would completely overlook it, and you did a fine job at explaining the good from bad. Like for example I played the shit out of Halo as a kid, once the remastered them on the Xbox One, I was amazed by the graphics and gameplay it presented, however as I journeyed through the great Halo campaigns, I noticed that some things were different and I didn't enjoy them as much, an example was a campaign level was much lighter than the original level, which was darker. Same goes from what you showed with crash, some levels have a darker design in the original but are given a huge lighting effect, maybe the current hardware runs better with producing a level with better light, who knows why they change little things like that haha. Another piece I quite enjoyed from your discussion was you weren't blinded by nostalgia. Some people I've seen play the game have nothing negative to say about the game, only stating "Oh this looks amazing, the nostalgia feels". However you obviosuly would've gotten a nostalgia affect out of this game but you the review you performed was well articulated as you weren't as biased as some KZbinrs. Having an honest opinion like yours really helped the perspective of this review, you gave your full honest thoughts and that's what reviews are missing these days. I enjoy it when you go out of your way to review a game, as I can tell you spend countless hours on editing and filming etc. This makes me more indulged with your content as your one of the few youtubers I regularly follow that provide an honest opinion when it comes to games. Overall great job Jak, your reviews are the best. Have a great day! Hopefully they remake CTR too :P PS- What game capture do you use? I'm looking at recording some gameplay for certain games but aren't sure what would be a good one.

"A**holes With Strong Opinions Stretched Thin Over 140 Characters." That sounds like a great article title lol! 😂😂😂

[@MEEPRODUCTION100]

Im also a die hard crash fan since i was toddler, i feel the same way about all three games. They could of added more detail and focused on the soundtrack more and some levels in warped did not come up to my expectation. I was really disappointed with some of the death animations as to some being taken away from the original. But despite all of things i said it was a fantastic remake and they manage to give me that nostalgic feeling. Btw jak, i've been watching your reviews and your judgement never disappoints me, you have good eye for details mate!!

[@toirlangston7203]

The alpha what you expect it's Activision not naughty dog they have until two years to do something with crash bandicoot or they'll lose his IP remaking crash bandicoot is not doing something with him just remaking his classic series I feel like Activision is not trying

[@MrGamer07100]

Really good, and fair review of this.

[@rondino4634]

Great review, I love this "fully remaster from the ground up", VV make a good job and now I hope CTR and Bash remake (CTR has more chances, I know) PS: There is a possibility to you make a Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale review?

[@bambibroode]

Before i start watching 1: you better Curse at least once in this Video and 2: I heard they are going to be making more Crash Game as this sold incredibly well 3: i am gonna never comment again until after a video in the future!

[@Thedarkpotato22]

good job jak! took the word right outta my mouth, i felt exactly the same way and you worded it way better than what i could ever have, cheers for another great video

[@Agent0range9]

Love the channel man i didnt know u still made videos u disappeared from my home page for months. Whered u get those crash toys that are in packages. What are they from?

[@mattlee9753]

Literally the only review on this game that doesn't bitch about difficulty, great review!!

[@SquareEyedJak]

Thanks.

[@incorrectzak3496]

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I like how analyzing your review was Jak, because, while you were kind of deep over minor details that grew up with you as a kid, it makes the review more unique the way you "execute" your words and even nitpicking in a straight and focused way instead of bickering and complaining all the time at a game so that you try not to alienate people with opposing views otherwise, even if they do sound kind of worrying and salty, unlike TheStimpyland in most of his areas, especially with his Wrath of Cortex re-review.

[@SebaOutbreak]

Great review, Jak. I hope I can play the trilogy someday. But HOW COULD THEY NOT INCLUDE DINGODILE'S BEST LINE?! Most certainly unforgivable. Also, how do you feel about Stormy Ascent being free for a limited time only?

[@myral3880]

The N.Sane trilogy is my first experience with the Crash games because of how young I was when the original games came out. I wasn't even born till about 2 months after the first game came out.

[@ShidazzleShow]

In my opinion this is yet another top review from you, my man! Good job!

[@oldstimpls9464]

The Ice physics In this game are N.SANE! all puns aside they did f**** up Crash 2's ice physics

[@ewanthethingdoer]

I know! I got like, 24 game overs on Snow Go because of it!

[@judsta123kickass]

Dingleberry64 funny enough I would say... The wrath of cortex had the best ice physics

[@oldstimpls9464]

Meh second best in my Opinion I like crash 2 (Original) the best 1. Crash 2 2. Wrath of cortex 3. Twinsanity

[@Faapu]

But the ice physics in the original were already fucked

[@Logan912]

King Harkinian It's worse on N. Sane Crash 2 because of the wonky momentum system.

[@SirCrackerBulb]

interesting views Jak, surprised that you enjoyed it as much glad to see that too

[@SquareEyedJak]

How are you enjoying it?

[@SirCrackerBulb]

I quite like it, not a fan of how the controls differ in crash 1 compared to 2 and 3, the jumping is far to unforgiving at points and the vechiles in my opinion feel worse in crash 3, besides that I'm enjoying it

[@warhammernerd52Daxx-Lorenzo898]

"This video contains strong opinions and suggestions towards your favorite bandicoot" *Favorite Bandicoot* *Favorite Bandicoot intensifies*

[@BLRavenWizard]

Great review, Man! Crash N Sane Trilogy is a very good game! I hope Spyro Trilogy gets a remake soon. :)

[@hammo541]

The honesty at the beginning had me in stitches ahahahaah, always a pleasure never a chore when watching your videos Jak!

[@judsta123kickass]

I really hope VV would patch all the tiny little fuck ups and then it would be a 10 in my eyes

[@SalotusJChaos]

The spoilers must of been so annoying for anyone who caught eyes to it, thankfully I wasn't one of them. Either way it's great to see you finally review the remastered trilogy Jak! :D I personally found the entire thing to be a step up for both Crash 1 and Crash 2, but honestly I found Warped the weakest of the three since nothing could of really been changed, although I would of loved for them to make the secret gems in that game necessary with hints indicating how you get to the levels. Anyhoo good stuff bud as per usual! :D

[@FoxyLoxley73]

I platinumed Crash 1 yesterday. So happy.

[@OskarrrRATM]

i plated all of them :P

[@bbjb7459]

Good job dude, congrats. :]

[@DavidKen878]

As big a fan this guy is of the Crash games, I'm shockingly surprised he said nothing about Ripper Roo having having a new voice actor and not having his signature laugh!

[@gran_turismo_fan]

Yeah I hear that people were kind of "meh" about how different crash felt with his "gravity" in the 2nd game. Aside from that, you did a great job analyzing how the game felt in your opinion. I felt jealous that I don't have a PlayStation 4 but, my brother does (which I'm trying to get him to get the game digitally) to explore this great remake from vicarious visions. Since that remake came out, I spent numerous hours on an emulator to play the nostalgic crash trilogy to reach 100% in all three games. Keep those good reviews going they inspire me!

[@jman2856]

This was a great review. Fair and well put together.

[@SquareEyedJak]

Cheers mate! :D

[@Ikcatcher]

As someone who only played Crash 3, it'll be nice to play the first two games remastered and have a nostalgia trip with Warped

[@DomtheDemonSlayer]

I freakin' love the game. Many levels and paths were made to be much easier (which is good because I suck at them). Music and graphics are orgasmic. Time trials kicked my ass but I was able to obtain golds and platinums in warped more than the original. However the time trial for high time can go fuck off. My only complaint is when they land on platforms they seem to miss the edge quite easily. Overall best remake ive seen

[@SquareEyedJak]

Certainly dude, but yeah those jumps are tough in spots.

[@DomtheDemonSlayer]

Square Eyed Jak Im platinuming (as in trophies) in the order of 3, 2, than 1. 3 I just need to rack up 99 lives. 2 i can get done just need to get relics. crash 1 will be hell for me XD

[@killianhannon8785]

Damn 13K views already!,keep up the good work Jak!

[@scratches12mevideos]

Awesome review on crash n sane trilogy. Growing up with crash on ps1, this is a faithful remaster of the first 3 games. Granted like you said, there are some lacking details in some of the levee. But the overall package of the game is great.

[@josphok4142]

great review mate ,keep up ,
