I fired it up only for a few seconds to see the title screen until i can play later, but it doesn't seem to support HDR? Is this being added?

Is there difficulty modes no?

Kind of. There's two death systems. One gives you lives and the other is infinite deaths but attaches a gem to only dying 3 times a level.

Just based on some of the trophy requirements, I wouldn't worry about the game being easy. Each non-boss level has N.Sanely perfect relics, and to get those, you need to get 80% of the wumpa fruits and destroy every single crate without dying once.
Enjoy. Also it doesn't really matter which life system you use, since if you want to 106% the game, you'll need to do every level without dying anyway. I imagine simply finishing the game normally once won't be too hard anyway, it never really was.

I'm sure a port is coming down the line and then you and your wife's son can find immense enjoyment in it.

Played a little when it unlocked on ps4 and it looked great. Got the platinum trophy for the trilogy and will start smashing this over the weekend.
I don’t care about CoD or anything else they do really. All the new Crash and Spyro stuff has been great.

Its way harder, i have platinums on all three crash remastered games, but this is like endgame crash difficulty after level 3 and out, i hate the hidden boxes everywhere, stupid design

I'm in the minority but I didn't like the remakes. Crash remakes have physics problems and vehicle levels all controlled worse. Spyro was more of a mixed bag, gameplay wise they were better except for more bugs than N sane had but I didn't care for the new voice acting, Spyro 3 is a mess though.
I did figure any new games they made would be better since they wouldn't be trying to replicate the old ones so closely and yet failing.
Generally speaking, I just dislike Activision's business practices.

It definitely feels more fun/satisfying to play than the older games. You feel more in control.
Turned that stupid shadow helper off too.

I'm actually quite impressed. This feels like the old Crash games on PS1. Not saying it's not technologically superior, it absolutely is. 60fps-ish on a Pro plays great. But just that the feel of the game is more a continuation than a reboot/remake. If you liked 1-3, you'll absolutely like this too.

Nope sadly not. Acti is probably figuring out a way to milk current owners again for a nextgen version

How is this thread so dead? Anyways, some hours in now, its a really good game, flashbacks tape stuff is also great fun. But its way harder than 1-3

About halfway done just seeing all the levels so far, and not even the inverted ones. There's a hell of a lot of content here, it's gonna take quite a while to clear everything, and frankly, I don't know if I have it in me to get those "clear the level plus all boxes without dying once" relics. Although, I discovered you can do those in the inverted levels instead if you want to, which sometimes seems like it'd be easier.
It's awesome, I'm so happy with how this turned out. Any worries about casualisation people had are completely out the window, this is easily the hardest Crash game out there, it starts harder than some of the later levels in the originals. The new mechanics and characters are great and not overused, the bonus levels are cool, it feels tight and responsive. Looks stunning, especially at 60fps on a Pro. Just awesome. Not sure I'll get the platinum, I have too much other stuff to play, but I'll probably go for an all gems save file.
Only complaint so far is that some of the hidden boxes in levels are super frustrating, I've finished a lot of levels with 1-5 missing.

All achievements includes the "all boxes + no deaths" relics in every normal level - the completion rate on that sucker is gonna be LOW. Definitely an elite challenge.

I think with practice, level by level, it could be doable?
One thing that seems random is getting killed by enemies when it seems like you hit them fair and square. I jump + spin at them but something get killed. This was a classic problem in the original Crash.
Game is a lot of fun though. Liking it more than I though I would. I like the challenge.

Jesus, really? Crash 2 and 3 in the collection made me swear like the Anti-Christ, I was expecting the Pope to show up at my door any minute, lol. That one ice level in Crash 2 nearly broke me, and don’t even get me started on the underwater levels in Crash 3 with those insta-death whirlpools.
I’d wait up on Crash 4 ‘cuz I’m 99% sure it’s coming to Game Pass eventually, but I’m afraid it’ll take its sweet time doing so.

Not controversial enough

Even if don't get, by UE4 standarts running at dynamic resolution will get boost.

It's a combination of both for me
Just getting through the levels at this point, crates be damned. Game is downright gorgeous.

Stuff like switching platform phases are making the platforming a bit harder. Theyre also hiding crates more than oringinal games.

you can’t get 100%+ until beating the game anyways, so I will worry about all the boxes, gems, and other hidden stuff later. The n.sanely perfect relics for each level will be rough too. I think I only have like one or two right now in the first go.

This aspect is killing the "fun/enjoyment" for me.
In my advancing age I guess I need a "Funky mode" ala DK:Tropical Freeze on the Switch.

Oh it'll be doable, just a big investment considering how long some of these levels are. You're gonna have to really learn a lot of them if you're going for those relics.

If the max res is only set to 1080p then you wont see a big boost at all...

I was concerned about the 1080p resolution even on mid gen consoles but I'm pleasantly surprised with the results. Toys for Bob made the right choice prioritizing frame rate, and even at 1080p the game looks amazingly beautiful on my 4K set, UE4's TAA is doing God's work here, not that blurry and perfectly fine from "couch gaming distance". This is honestly one of the best looking third-party games of the generation, a perfect mix of great technology and art style. Don't skip this one waiting for a possible next-gen version, play it right now and have fun.

Perfomance dude. And I never said 'big'. Without patches games don't get huge boost. The boost I'm talking about is the brute force usally in pc market. Just by bump up the CPU this game will remain more at 60 fps.

My god this game is a challenge.
It feels god but who is the fucking target audience?
Do you think the 10 year olds who buy this are going to get anything done? jfl

I got the platinums for the trilogy, but I’m already doubting I’ll bother going for the 106% stuff lol.
