Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy

Our analysis

Spectacular visual overhaul of PS1 classics. Preserves fun and nostalgia but also original flaws.

Our analysis

Faithful recreation of 3D platforming classics; steep difficulty for newcomers.

Our analysis

ZP: faithful platformer but doesn't hold up; questionable 3D shift.

Our analysis

Hell of a good time remaster with faithful visuals and music; load times are persistent but worthwhile for legacy fans.

Our analysis

A loving, definitive remake of the first three Crash games, with a phenomenal graphical overhaul, clean sound, quality-of-life tweaks like anytime saving and switchable Coco, and Crash 1 gameplay smoothed toward the sequels. The best way to play these classics. That said, it stays faithful to old frustrations such as brutal precision platforming in Crash 1 and the worse-handling jet ski in Crash 3, and it won't win over anyone the originals already failed to impress.
