Anyone else playing the N. Sane trilogy?

Elai · July 14, 2017, 12:34:53 PM

I would like to make a detailed post about what makes a good remaster/remake but I'm in the middle of trying to get the yellow gem on Plant Food in Crash 2 and it's being a real bitcher.

Basically my thoughts are:

-movement isn't nearly as precise as I remember, could have used a lot more work (especially in Crash 1)
-music is pretty awful, would have liked a Halo CEA/H2A button option to switch between classic graphics and new ones
-save/load system is fucking stupid, who the FUCK would press square to save?
-Crash 2 is still easily the best one

Doubt it.

There's an Xbox version already planned for release so I don't see why not

What the fuck.

Elai · July 14, 2017, 01:08:05 PM

I just want a Spryo re release. Don't even worry about the graphics, just increase the frame rate and resolution of the original 3, and put it on my current gen. That's it.

Why?

These games were designed with the playstation controller in mind. The first 5 games were supposed to be exclusive. I don't know, it just doesn't feel right.

I don't have a PS4, so just have to wait and hope for an Xbox version.

Elai · July 14, 2017, 03:22:37 PM

Oh yeah. Fuck this game's loading times, too. Literally 3 times as long as back on the PS1.

The more I play this, the more I just want the originals with a higher frame rate.

July 14, 2017, 05:14:49 PM

Literally like Dark Souls.

They're saying Dark Souls 4 is the Crash Bandicoot of RPGs.

Sure, but the games are designed to be played with the d-pad.

Good luck doing that on X1.

Elai · July 14, 2017, 05:40:52 PM

The game is already imprecise as fuck. I pity the guy who plays it on X1.

I don't have an Xbox One so I'm not affected at all. May get an inferior experience but they might still enjoy it.

as long as there are multiple consoles on the market, i think exclusives are justified

Xbox One has an improved d-pad compared to its 360 counterpart, its good to know that Prehistoric agrees the PC version is going to be the surperior version only for the fact that you'll be able to use the Wii U Pro Controller that makes the PS4's D-Pad seem like dogshit

An improvement over the dogshit 360 controller doesn't say much, because it's still worse than every iteration of the Playstation D-pad.

The PC versiom will likely be better, yeah. The Wii-U Pro's D-pad is equal to the Dualshock 4, but it's a superior controller overall.

I wasn't insinuating you would play it on X1.

Apathy is worse than wanting console exclusives.

Elai · July 14, 2017, 06:43:21 PM

The PS1 version is still the definitive version. These remakes gotta start shipping the original games with their overhauled versions, enough is enough.

that was the funniest dunk vid in a long time.

the slow motion editing when he gets hit with the shell before the finish line. with donkey kong looking at the camera dramatically. fucking gold.

Verbatim · July 14, 2017, 06:45:10 PM

developers aren't gonna want to rebuild a game from the ground up just so people can play the originals anyway though

if they make the remakes functionally worse than the originals, they should be obligated to

who cares what they want to do. you think these devs give a shit about redoing someone elses work or do they care about getting paid. including the older games doesn't somehow mean less sales.

Elai · July 14, 2017, 06:59:42 PM

really though these consoles should just be backwards compatible.

i don't know, if i spent a year composing a score for a remaster for some old game, and i learned that you can just revert back to the old score on a whim, i'd be pretty upset

i'd feel like i wasted my time
