I knew the remastered version of Crash Bandicoot were coming out this year but never really payed attention to when, and so the other day as I was roaming through the mall I couldn't stop myself from noticing an entire line where there were supposed to be games were emptied, so I went closer to take a look and to my surprise I found out it were the new Crash Bandicoot game that were all sold out.
When I got home I instantly started my PS4 and downloaded Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy from the playstation store.
What is Crash Bandicoot?
Crash Bandicoot is a platform video game, somewhat alike Super Mario and Sonic. You play a character called Crash who is a marsupial, easily mistaken for a fox, and the story is to save your friend Coco, a fellow marsupial from the evil Dr. Neo Cortex and along the way it requires you to walk through different kind of maps, jumping over various obstacles, running away from giant boulders and using spinning and jumping techniques to defeat enemies and bosses along the way. You also have to collect "whumpa fruits"(Looks like apples), extra lives and protective "aku aku masks" to get yourself through the maps and to get max amount of points you have to smash all the crates you find along the way.
Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy includes just as it sounds the three first Crash Bandicoot games, in the video I'm about to show you, I'm only playing the first game which were originally made in 1996 and now remastered with visual upgrades only as far I know.
All the sounds and maps and creatures and simply everything is the same as it were when I was a kid, all my childhood years as I used to play Crash Bandicoot, it's like I'm re-living those days as I'm now playing the same game with better graphics, it's amazing and so nostalgic!
Please no hard feelings, I'm NOT really good at video games, not playing them too often. Anyway please enjoy the Intro/Gameplay
Well it's not an easy game, but I was so happy when I started the game and heard all the sounds were exactly the same as from the original version.
Are there any differences from the original Crash Bandicoot?
The first and absolute biggest change is the visual update, I got two pictures taken from the same spot down below, credits linked under the images.
The second change I noticed is in the Bonus level you get in-game. If I remember correctly from the original Crash Bandicoot you only had one chance to get through the bonus level, if you fell you'd have to continue without getting a second chance to get the boxes in the bonus level. But in the new Crash you get as many attempts as you need to get through the bonus level.
I really enjoyed playing this game back in the days, and I am enjoying it even more today! If you're a 90's kid and used to play Crash Bandicoot back in the days, then I really recommend you getting the game, and why not you who never played CrashBandicoot too!
I had some problems editing the video and uploading the video from my PS4 to my computer, but eventually I got it decently made. The video were edited on ShareFactory, I have never done it before so I had some difficulties... There are a clip from the bonus level and a boss fight in the end of the video if you got bored and never watched it all.
This is where you choose the next map
