#crashbandicoot #ctr #review
I still take this over Mario Kart.
Proof that an over 20 year old game still holds up greatly.
Yep
Nope
It's funny knowing ND were hoping CTR would destroy Crash but it ended up being one of the best Crash games ever made.
Is this true? How did you guys know that?
@@Legendnewer did you even watch the video?
I know he talks about that, but I want the source
@@Legendnewer oh search it up on Google "did naughty dog want to kill crash bandicoot" and MAYBE it will show up
I hope Nitro Fueled ends up being the first game you give a 10/10
Yes. The first 10/10
Same
Its looks exactly what gonna happen
I don't see this happening to any game ever.
I doubt that as it's not as good as the original.
This was the first game I ever played, the game which got little 5-year-old me hooked on to video games for the rest of my life. DON'T DISAPPOINT ME CTR NITRO-FUELED!!!
“Start your N.Gins!!!” 🔥🔥🔥
*for a sony computer entertainment america production*
@@MrSai-mn8wz *Fasten your seatbelts for another NAUGHTY DOG CREATION!!!*
@@mauriciogarcia4795 *W O A H*
I love that CTRNF has N.Gin swaps
Tiny squash puny car
Of course Naughty Dog are so damn good! They're so good that they couldn't even make a completely bad game, even if they wanted to, and CTR is a prime example of it that shows!
@@Megumi_Bandicoot What's wrong with the Uncharted series?
CTR is still amazing to this day. I'm very excited to play Nitro Fueled when it comes out.
Yeah Naughty Dogs created a masterpiece , the game was way ahead of its time
Its like being a kid waiting for christmas , Only i'm not a kid emmmm im 32 lol
Nitro Fueled sucks compared to the og lol
Best turbo system and controls of any kart racer imho, and so many amazing tracks. Sewer Speedway might be the best one, it perfectly showcases how crazy you can get with this games mechanics
Also, I don't know if you already know this , but there's an extra level to power sliding: the longer you hold the slide, the longer the boost is. So, in order to maximize speed, you have mix short and long boost depending on the type of turns you are facing. Pretty cool
I first played CTR just a few months ago. It is now one of my favourite games of all time. So hyped for Nitro Fueled.
I'm guessing you're on the young side. I was 9 back in 1999 and CTR still holds up whenever I play it
@@MasutaMJ I was born in 2000. Didn't get into Crash until a few years ago, I'm so glad I did!
I'd say after 20 years is still legitimately holds up , though I'm still super hyped for Ctr Nitro Fueled gonna end up .
Nathaniel Foga way too short, needs more content and that’s what Nitro fueled will deliver
It's gon be awesome
NF sucks compared to the OG
Wtf why do you only have 22k subs. I’ve been watching your channel for 2 years. You should have 200k+. Your videos are premium quality.
Thank you! :)
E-Jak-Ulation, more like.
GalacticHypernova
Oh come on, deep down you know that was a good pun.
Hey, Jak! Just wanted to say keep up the good work! Your content is really high quality and super entertaining to watch!
Cheers, appreciate it! :)
I was actually rewatching your old CTR review just this morning and now you post this!
That's why I wanted to remake these, I knew people would be going back to the REALLY old, REALLY shit videos! :D
I really do love the thumbnail arts you make for these reviews.
Man, like you, I thought I was really good at this game... but when I learnt about the reserve system I finally understood how deep the mechanics of CTR go.
The speed of this game is just fantastic. I urge you to search for more Ultimate Sacred Fire clips. I found one of CTR Nitro Fueled where one guy basically plays the whole Polar Pass track with USF and the speed he achieves is utterly incredible. Nearly game breaking.
0:10 When they announced Tawna, Trophy Girls, Baby T, Spyro and new tracks in CTR Nitro Fueled!
Ah it's great to see square eyed Jake episodes return. They make my Monday nights great
Jak*
When the Nitro Fueled version is released, Mario Kart & Team Sonic Racing will sure find themselves in some N-Sane competition.
Christian Lakhan yep
I actually kinda feel bad for the devs of Team Sonic Racing. It's a good game. Fun. And I really enjoy the Sonic racers in general (All-Stars Transformed was great). But...they chose to release it right before CTRNF. A horrible choice. It either needed to be released way sooner, or way later. Any player base it actually has is gonna fade pretty damn quick as soon as CTRNF comes out.
I mean, Team Sonic Racing is already kind of a down-grade from All-Stars Transformed, with it's forced team mechanic (which you'd think they'd know was a bad idea seeing as it's always unpopular when games do it. Just look at MKDD, CNK, and CTTR). And it didn't have the variety of characters like All-Stars had, it's just Sonic now. Good game, with a couple downgrades. Mix that, with the release alongside CTR, and they've doomed their game right from the start. They're already fighting against Mario Kart on Switch, which is eating a chunk out of their player base.
TXF I was waiting for CTRNF because I know it’s going to much better than mario kart and sonic team racing but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to play them
I mean, that's cool that you'll be playing 'em all. But there's a lot of people that don't want to play 3 different kart racers at the same time. I've even seen quite a few people say they only even play the Sonic and Mario kart racers because they couldn't play CTR.
Regardless of if you specifically are planning to play 'em all, Team Sonic Racing is gonna lose quite a few players to CTR.
Personally, I don't own Team Sonic Racing, but I can guarantee I probably won't even touch another kart racer for a while after CTR releases. Especially since I'm gonna need to grind out those Wumpa Coins for the Pit Stop, and grind out my Nitro meter in the Grand Prix.
My point was that I don't think Team Sonic Racing really deserves to lose a chunk of it's player base. It's not bad. I just think it released at just about the worst possible time. Right before one of the best kart racers ever gets a remake.
TXF I know CTRNF will the best racing game in 2019 If there is one thing I like about games like CTRNF and manny Master peace games it’s how much Replayability the game has to this day even in 2019
1999 is such a long damn time; I was being 6 years old when this game came out. My brother rented this so many times in Blockbuster and next year he actually got the game.
I hate when people say mario kart 64 is the best kart racing game of all time because they played it as a kid and yes I heard some of my friends say it before
CTR 20 years old! Same age as me! And I still adore it what a piece of history.
I remember playing this everytime I was at my cousin's house. It was the only reason I wanted to come over everytime lol
1:28 They thought that in a game that has a bandicoot in a humanoid overall shape with a sentient talking piece of wood that floats and is capable of saving said bandicoot's life from any possible hit, in addition to the fact that the same bandicoot has the ability to drive jetpacks, cars, planes and motorbikes, that adding a simple alien would kill the game? What were they high on I wonder
Thanks for the new upload this game needed to be revisited the old video was pretty old
I can’t believe it’s already been almost 4 years since this video was released! I remember picking up and playing Crash Team Racing not too terribly long after playing the remake earlier that year. Pretty fun game I must say! Also, on the topic of Nitro-Fueled it would be sweet to see you revisit that game and see how it holds up after its content updates.
❤️ Much love, Jak! Been watching you for over 5 years and have never been disappointed with your videos. 😉👍
Still in my top 5 favourite games to this day. Fucking perfection.
watching these videos are lowkey making me emotional. I used to play all these games so much years ago.
I’m so happy to see you rereview the Kart Racers!
I recently replayed this game too on the PS3 download store, and I am now awaiting Gamecube copies of Nitro Kart and Tag Team Racing. I know that they don't hold up as well, but I want to experience the originals before the remake. I made that mistake with the N. Sane Trilogy, and I won't do it again with these racing games. I also played the original Crash trilogy, and I'll also blast my way through a replay of the N. Sane trilogy before June 21. If I could do it with Spyro, then I can still do the same with Crash.
It's nice to see you revisiting the Crash Bandicoot racing games :D Looking forward to your review on Crash Nitro Kart, hopefully Crash Tag Team Racing too ;)
2019 is a good year for Kart Racers. The Three Kings Stand Tall again.
I'm glad you talked about advanced techs and the competitive community. This game is a big part of my gaming life. I'm so hyped by the remake.
Great review as always !
I'm not super up to speed on the competitive community, but that's going to be a big aspect of Nitro Fueled and I never did a good job talking about the advance shit in my original episode (because I didn't know it was that complex). But thanks! :)
Watching these again in preparation for tomorrow. (:
I'm hyped for CTR:NF.
Arddernog i’m so glad they’re combining CTR and CNK i absolutely love both and i was perfectly happy thinking it was just a CTR remake but i’m so hyped to use Nash as my main (the shark bosses name i think)
CTR was better than Mario Kart 20 years back then, and I am so happy that 2 decades later it still is!!!
Veronika Alcoba i agree 🙌🏻
Tbh I hardly see any people talk about Mario kart.
and if they do, it's about the latest one.
I got the ps1 back in 99 and this was the game that I got with it. I remember getting home to play but I never had a memory stick so I had to run out and get one the same day to play it 😂
You can play as the boss characters! For Nitro Fueled.
I still remember the Nitro Kart video where he complained about not being able to play as the boss characters. It's finally happened! Also, Nitro-Fueled will allow the characters asidwe from the original 8 to appear as opponents.
I recently preordered the Nitros Oxide Edition of CTR Nitro Fueled!
Pre-ordering it this week, super excited!
20 years later and it’s still fun as hell.
It's a great day whenever Square eyed Jak uploads a video glad to see you back buddy keep up the great work man you doing phenomenal job can't wait for skate Tober!;)
everyone gets to have memories and im sitting here like 'i never played it before i have no idea whats going to go on'. poor me .
There's actually another level of mastery that let's you keep boost throughout the rest of the track. You overload the boost reservoir byte value so it becomes negative and once that happens you're constantly in boost. Driving over a super pad for ultimate sacred fire let's you keep that as long as you don't get another external boost from jumping, pads or drifting.
CTR will NEVER FUCKING DIE. 20 years later and it still kicks ass.
I remember beating all of Oxides time trial times and thinking I had unlocked him like N. Tropy. Only to find out he couldn't be unlocked. Truly devastating. But despite that this game is still a 10/10 for me. If you don't give a 10 to this game I don't think you ever will give a 10.
Aged like a fine wine🍷
I definitely agree with you on seeing the same eight characters in arcade, despite unlocking everyone. But, this game is still amazing to this day. Cheers, mate! I'm keen to see you go back to Nitro Kart.
Luckily with NF, the characters seem to be mixed much better. It just makes it more rewarding, cheers!
@@SquareEyedJak It's gonna feel nice to finally see all my hard work pay off in the arcade mode.
Most underated YTuber. This man needs a mil.
After all this, if Crash Nitro Fuelled doesn't have all of the tightness and precision in the driving mechanics, then with that shortcoming alone, it'll never reach the same height as the original.
I enjoy your videos a lot keep up the good work. :)
Thanks! :)
Nice to finally see a new review
Great Re-review Jak! By the way, will you do Nitro Kart?
Another great thing about ctr are all the shortcuts you can go through jumping. It took me 20 years and a bunch of you tube videos to find all about them
Nitrous- *mathafuckin* -oxide 😂😂
Great content as always :)
Great video Jak. I remember doing the same thing nearly a couple of years ago, looking at Crash Team Racing again to upgrade my old review. But I think in hindsight, it was just an excuse to play it again because that's how fun it is even to this day. I'm really looking forward to Nitro-Fueled!
Cheers mate. Yeah I can play this thing any day of the week. I wasn't going to remake my old videos but when I saw NF was going to be including the Nitro kart content, I just the got the itch REAL bad to redo them! :)
Can't wait for the Nitro Kart vid Jak, hope you know your hard work and great video design is appreciated!
Its great to revisit CTR review and I'm surprised the score is still 9/10. I'm so Hype for CTR Nitro Fueled!! :D
It's amazing to think an intended failure became an accidental success for CTR, still a great game honestly, still don't think Nitro fueled will come close
Yeah I'm seeing a lot of people claiming automatic 10/10 because of all the racers and customization... sorry but it doesn't work like that. But as long as it's still just as fun to play, I won't be complaining.
Nostalgia blind
@@elijahtoombs3524 or you know the previous racing games haven't come close the gameplay shown so far doesn't really look like it feels as tight as the previous games?
@@SirCrackerBulb ...what?
CTR: Nitro-Fueled will be the first Square Eyed Jak video to get 10/10
This was an AMAZING updated review of your original one and while I still think the old one has it charm and I will continue to re-watch it, this is more than a perfect follow up that gets your points across beautifully. "The fact that the control is so tight means that the player is in full control." I AGREE so much with this and you pretty much said how I felt about this game since the day I played it back in 1999. I'm surprised that there are people who think the controls being super tight is a bad thing because in my honest opinion, it's the best thing about it and why it makes it one of the best Kart racing games ever made and hell, I'd go so far to say that it surpasses Mario Kart. I never liked Mario Kart's looser control physics. i'm not saying that Mario Kart is bad because It's definitely a fun game but it's hard for me to say that I think it's better than Crash Team Racing on a technical level because at he end of the day, I always found myself coming back to Crash Team Racing because of it's super tight, responsive control.
I still think it's a bummer that they didn't include Dr. N-Brio, Koala Kong, and Tawna Bandicoot as playable racers in the game because Crash Team Racing was meant to be a final goodbye from Naughty Dog before they moved onto Jak & Daxter and those characters were a par of their Crash Bandicoot history and it just sucked that they forgot to include them to make it a proper send off. And I also agree that it sucked that you couldn't race against the boss characters outside of Adventure Mode as soon as you unlock them. That's something I didn't even realize when I did my review back in 2015 LOL But aside from all this, the game definitely holds up even 20 years later. I think that young kids today would be able to enjoy the game just as much as those of us who grew up with it back in the day.
As far as Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is concerned, it's really going to come down to the game's control that makes or breaks it for me. The game is looking promising so far with the beautiful graphics and featuring characters like Crunch and Nitrus Oxide as playable characters (though please don't forget about Dr. N-Brio, Koala Kong, and Tawna, they deserve to be here too!). But all that is gonna mean squat if they butcher the control physics so I'm crossing my fingers that they don't screw that up. Anyway, amazing re-review and looking forward to the look back on Crash Nitro Kart. :)
Glad you enjoyed it. You're exactly right with Nitro Fueled, at the end of the day, it's all going to come down to control.
Love CTR and love this Channel!
Crash nitro kart is an underrated gem from 128 bits era imo, the story was engaging and the characters, as you said in the video but with ctr, are full of charisma.
P.D. Good video 👍👍.
The playstation had 128bit registeries? thats higher than most modern day machines.
Mario Kart Wii, to me, is the greatest fun racer of all time. It just perfectly nails the new tracks and gives you the best old ones, true to the original but greatly improved to withstand the test of time. Hopefully CTRNF is even nearly as good, then I‘ll play it for years to come
Brilliant review as always Jak!
And you sir just earned yourself a new subscriber, looking forward to all future content.
Thank you very much!
One of my most favorite kart racers of all time cannot wait for nitrofueled and I want to race anyone especially you Jak xD
10:21 Says "speed, speed, so much speed". Plays as Polar :D
Awesome revisit Jak! Can't wait for CNK! 😎🤙
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot.
Ahh crash team racing was and still is my fave cart racing games💕💕💕. And one of my top 4 favorite games of all time... and I’m 32!!!!! Good times and I’m still playing CTR and getting my but kicked to 🥾 and I’m loving it❤️❤️❤️🤔🤔 how many games are their like that???
Really looking forward to the revision of the game this month 💕💕💕💕
This will always be my favorite game of all time
While Oxide is playable in Nitro Kart, Nitro Fuled will let everyone experience how he'll truly play out. Hovercraft or Not.
Thomas Lopez I did so and it was amazing!
There are not a lot of reviews on Nitro Kart on CZcams. Definitely excited to hear you thoughts
I've been playing CTR since 2009 (I know I was quite late to the party) and I only managed to master the "sacred fire" thing... 2 months ago. It took more than 12 fucking years.
This game is amazing.
No matter how Nitro Fueled turns out, the original will still be a timeless masterpiece :)
Exactly ))
Great video chief. 👌Can't wait for ctr nf gonna be great. Keep it up.
i remember playing this game for DAYS!... it was superior to Mario Kart in gameplay in every sense of the word.
Yes! A CTR Revisit! Can't wait for CNK Revisit!! 😃🎉
I think this game and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed are the greatest mascot racing games of all time, don't @ me
I pre-ordered the standard edition of the game cause I'm not spending an extra $35+ on a character and a few other things.
@S N Same, I grew up with the game so I've been excited about the game for months
As always great work 👍
This game is just EPIC! Can't wait for nitro fueled
Hey Jak :D
Amazing improvement on your original review of the game!
As someone who got the chance to try out the Demo for Nitro Fuelled, having had a go at both Sewer Speedway and Clockwork Wumpa, I can happily say that for the most part, the Remake is absolutely visually stunning and handles great.
My only real gripe with it is that the controls, although are tight, they're not quite as sharp as the original, (Having said that its only very slightly off)
I'm sure with the time they have left and a few patches, CTR Nitro Fuelled will be everything we hoped it would be. I met this game with a fair bit of scepticism, as its not only my favourite Crash game, it was my first ever gaming experience and I have cherished it ever since.
I'm glad that Beenox has proven me wrong thus far. Very eager to to play the full game, as well as hearing your thoughts on it. :D
The hype is real !!!!! Less than a month left till CTR Nitro Fueled comes out . Can't wait .
An upgraded review? Dude, this video is a remake from the ground up!:D
And honestly- comparing it to the original vid, this is definitely a sign of how much your content and sense of humor has improved, giving us, the viewers, one of the most high quality shows on the internet. Cheers man!:>
P.S By the way, I've got a question- is N.Gin lab still your favorite track in the game?:)
Never have I clicked on a video so fast in my life
Jak forgot the trophy g
Kidding. Did you know this game’s ost has a different “pre-console” version?
Fun new game: take a shot every time Jak makes a Square Eyed Jak reference lol. Seriously though, love the video :)
u failed to mention this game required alot of skill with the weapons. i remember perfect timing of dropping rolling bombs in reverse, potions and crates to prevent the missiles from hitting you.
FINALLY, I was hoping that jack was aware of the remaster being just right around the corner
you know jak it is a minor thing but I'm glad you're a youtube channel that still cusses and is not PC. it makes your videos more fun to watch imo
Naughty Dog: Time to kill Crash before someone else does!
CTR: Oh no you don't!!
Great revisit! Definitely agree with what you said about Adventure Mode setting the game apart from other racers - so long as Nitro-Fueled nails that and the controls, I'd be happy even without being able to play online (besides, my mortal fingers are unworthy of the Ultimate Sacred Fire!).
Nitrus oxide better watch out for ultimate sacred fire
Nice revisit, Jak! One thing I really liked about your original CTR review was the "put up a parking lot" gag, it always cracked me up along with that extremely sad Crash.
To me this is one of the best games ever made, I've always liked it way much more than all the Mario Kart games.
Can't wait for Nitro Fueled either! Tho I'd have to get myself a PS4 first. Or wait a year or so for the PC release. :')
Cheers!
Appreciate it! I felt like it was best to leave those videos as they are, to focus on making these newer ones the best they can be. The Parking lot jokes still make me laugh at how stupid they are, but we didn't need to see them here.
Thanks! :)
Such an underrated channel. You deserve way more subscribers.
love that Nitro Fueled fixes your 2 complaints by making Oxide playable and having everyone show up in arcade mode!
Can't wait for the CNK video
