Crash™ Team Racing Nitro-Fueled (PS4)

Played it with and without my daughter, and loved it, lots of characters, cars and decals to unlock to keep things engaging, a story mode and arcade along with battle modes, I only briefly played the original but this homage is superior in every way.

Love these games reminds me of back in the day A***

Crash Bandicoot is back.Bought this and was instantly impressed by the enhanced graphics and faithful recreation to a classic game.I prefer Crash Team Racing over Mario Kart because it’s challenging and rewarding at the same time.10/10 Buy

We pre ordered CTR back in December, we've been hardly able to sit still waiting for it! Both myself and my husband played CTR when it originally came out so hearing this was going to be remastered was more than a little exciting! Especially after being so impressed with the crash bandicoot trilogy remaster previously. Even our neighbours have been excited for us to get it so we can all play together both on the couch and online. That magic of having your friends round and all playing in the same room has been lost these last few years with online gaming, but CTR really brought it back for me. We need more games like this!Graphics are fantastic, the colours really pop and the detail is brilliant. We have a PS4 pro and a 4k TV, we've really noticed a difference in quality compared to playing the crash remaster last year on the basic PS4. I hear lots of hard core gamers are complaining about the amount of loading screens, honestly for me this was expected given it's not really a story game (there is one but honestly who here is buying CTR for the story lol) and you hop from race to race a lot meaning lots of loading tracks and leaderboards. Personally I think it loads quite fast and you have the option to turn off cut scenes and press triangle to skip.Adventure mode on easy has been a little too easy I'll be honest, I've done nearly everything and lots of the relics/ctr tokens and we've not had the game a week yet. For me that's fast. But that hasn't taken away any love for the game, I've been able to familiarise myself with the controls, tracks and bosses. And now I feel more confident to kick the difficulty level up a notch!I like the addition of earning coins for every race you do, these coins are the in game currency that you can then spend in the pit stop on all elements of the kart plus different characters/wheels/stickers/paint jobs etc etc. It brings something more fun to the game, though it would have made it more interesting if these upgrades did effect your performance on the vehicles or on the character stats. Give you a reason to want to earn the coins other than for aesthetic reasons (or in my case because 100% of a game is the only way you complete it)I also think that during adventure mode there could have been more to do that doesn't involve racing. So you spend a bit of time driving from race to race; and back to do other things like relic races once the area is complete. I think it would have added a little something extra if there was coins, wumpa fruit, stickers or something like that to collect out in the map rather than just coins for finishing a race. Exploring everywhere is fun, it's even more fun when there is a reason to search every nook and cranny!In conclusion I've thoroughly enjoyed playing CTR again finally after all these years. Because up to 4 players can play in local mode the whole family play on it, though my 9 year old son and his 9 year old best friend from next door are no match for me and his mum 🤣 it's been brilliant showing the kids that they're not the best gamers and when it comes to old school reboots the parents are the ones in first place!Thank you Activision for finally bringing back decent gaming, more crash and more spyro next year please!

The best cart racing game out there. A MarioKart beater for sure! There's an amazing amount of content in this game, and it doesn't end there with seasonal DLC available going forward. New tracks and events stretching out over the next few months will keep players engrossed. The game play is tricky, and driving skills need to be honed, even with the many power ups which become available over time. The tracks are tricky too, and need lots of practice to beat. There's plenty of meat to this game which just gets better the deeper you go. Great visuals and soundtrack top this stunning game off with loads of replay value thrown in. Beenox have come up with the goods here with an excellent reimagining of the original. A must have game for any cart racing/Crash fans out there!

A great refresh for my childhood game that I played on ps1 , it still has the same magic & fun

One of the greatest. Even being a bit old in 2023, it's timeless. Fun, addictive, really challenging if you want to master it.I couldnt stop playing with it, even after getting every trophy.A classic that'll never bore you

I still have the original CTR game installed on my PS3, and having played it recently can make a direct comparison to the remake. Whilst there is no contest on the 21st century vs late 20th century graphics it very quickly become clear that someone has been tinkering with the game's difficulty level. For example - having played 'Crash Cove' many times I can come in first place pretty much every time on the original, on the new game it took 3 attempts. On the second level - Roos Tubes I can usually score a first in one or two tries, 6 attempts and I could still not manage anything better than 2nd place. None of this would be a problem if the game didn't demand that you get first place in every race in order to progress. The old game would feed you a fairly appropriate power up all the time you weren't in first place, now it tends to give you 'drop' items when you really need a guided missile to slow down the relentless race leader. I might go back to it but as I have the original I'll probably continue to endure the rather dreadful graphics for the far more enjoyable game play. I appreciate decent games being updated - we are still waiting for Crash Bash - but please don't mess with the difficulty or if you do provide an easy setting for us oldies (and youngsters) who don't have the lightening fast reflexes required of modern gaming.
