purple_beard Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) The new game is a remake of the PS1 game correct? Was the GC CTR a completely different game with new/different modes and tracks? I could have sworn I owned both ...I don't recall trading off my GC disc but whatever.... Is the new version looking to incorporate material from both? I'm kind of asking because I saw that BBY (and GS too) took down the Switch options for the new game and then I read up and it said the game might be delayed so they took the game down. I did generally like CTR so a remake is in my wheelhouse for getting ...but then that GC game came to mind.... so I was just asking these questions.

avalonknight Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Yup, the GCN installment of the Crash Racing series is a different game. Though from what I read, it looks like the remastered port of Crash Team Racing is going to add in some features from its later installments, but don't expect it to be a compilation of sorts like the N-Sane Trilogy. purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment
Young P Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I believe there were two Crash racing games on GC. The later one plays completely differently, but Nitro Kart is similar to CTR for the most part. I did see some elements from at least one of those games in the teaser, but I wouldn't expect too much else given that those games aren't as known or beloved as CTR. Quote Link to comment

I believe I owned the PS1 CTR and I had at least one of the GC CTRs but I don't remember the name. I just didn't recall if the GC one was a remake of the PS1 one but then I came across that Tag Team Racing GC game and I don't think that was the one I owned and I didn't recall anything special about it. ********************** HMM https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Nitro_Kart https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Tag_Team_Racing DAMN, I sitll can't remember what GC game I had from this. The screen shots don't offer a jarring recollection of which one it was. Edited January 20, 2019 by purple_beard Quote Link to comment

Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) The racing game is the first time I’ve been introduced to his series. Other than that, I only got into this game’s sequel. I never played any of the other Crash games until I got the Insane trilogy. More of a Spyro guy myself.

purple_beard Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Who is looking to pick this up Friday? Wouldn't mind doing some online later on Friday evening. Quote Link to comment
Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Friday? Preordered for Thursday! ... I think. Nitrous Oxide Edition. I really loved the game as a kid! Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted June 22, 2019 Author Share Posted June 22, 2019 I am liking the graphics on the Switch version but a 8m update download to start and then some long load times bring up some questions.... I am liking the skins, kart colors, kart parts, and racer unlocks as far as the choices go and what not. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzer1 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Got the game at my local GameStop today for the Switch and it's great so far. Can't wait for all the post launch content starting in a few weeks. Quote Link to comment

Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I'm at least 70% percent on Adventure Mode. Trying to get everything now. Just need one more relic to complete the Glacier Area part before moving onto the last area. Man, I forgot how much I love this game and how different the controls are. Quote Link to comment

I don't like b accelerate set up.... so counter to all other racing games I've played. Also, mastering this drift boost is getting annoying. Quote Link to comment
