meanwhile the actual racing was top notch, so it's a good trade
Mario Kart 64 is without a doubt one of the worst kart racers to come out of that generation, when games like Sonic R, Diddy Kong Racing and ffs even Mickey's Speedway were capable of boasting creative and challenging track design as well as one-of-a-kind karting mechanics. The leveling based item system and the mini-turbo mechanic, as well as how tight drifting felt in CTR puts it above and beyond MK64.
I have been asking for Spyro for 2 years and its here, this to will pass hopefully
Ripper Roo main, no arms b.
This is everything if it has online mp.

Man I loved Sonic R, but I was a sucker for Sonic as a kid, it probably doesn't hold up anywhere near CTR.
They talk about it sadly post morten because Team Sonic Racing is the new one.
You think there's a single track in Mario Kart 64 that holds up to shit like Papu's Pyramid?
Sewer Speedway?
Dragon Mines?
Turbo Track????????
Like yeah we get it, Mario is Mario but lmfao if you're going to try and convince other people that Mario Kart 64 was anything but an embarrassing shit-show amongst other, better kart racers. This isn't Wii-era, this is N64/PS1.
Motor Toon GP is a better game than 64 lmfao fuck are you on about

I thought the game lacked a good sense of speed. I didn't enjoy the courses. The items sucked. I thought the artstyle was awful.
Happy?
MK64 was neat back when I didn't know any better and had no other experience with kart racers to be fair
My moms brought me into an Ames on a Chicago autumn afternoon, after school and asked me and my sister what game we wanted. I chose CTR, she chose Crash Warped and to this day I know that my sister eats shit
I'm ready for the remake please just let the online be good

lol at the bolded. CTR has a much better sense of speed than the slow ass MK64.
Thanks for upping the standard of your posts to substantiate discussion. You should be the happy one.
The sense of speed comment is odd to me since pointing to the earlier video someone else posted, CTR seems faster or keeps up evenly at the very least.
Anyway, hopefully the your artstyle and course qualms can be overcome in the remake if you give it a shot.
In concept and effort, Tag Team had it's heart in the right place. But it was no CTR. It wasn't even a CNK.
Or maybe just someone you don't agree with on a near 20 year old videogame. That's fine.

I'm a big believer that all art is subjective. Not liking the game for its sense of speed or items or whatever, that's fine.
but the aesthetics of all the Naughty Dog Crash games are phenomenal. Sorry, that's just one of the objective truths of life.
Why would you enter a thread about a possible CTR remake if you have no interest in the game. Coming in to tell everyone how much you hate it doesn't come across well.
If someone genuinely dislikes it then fair enough, but reasons given in this thread by multiple people have been laughable and have no real basis.
It's obvious judging by these posts, that some people just hate the fact that a 20 year old game does a better job at being a kart racer than the series that created the genre.
Yeah, if there's any proof that Naughty Dog are gods at programming is Crash 3 and CTR. The ammount of shit they had to do to run those things on a PSX is amazing. They seriously look good enough today, with upscaling they look like low-poly indie games (in a good way).
It'd be nice if it hit 60 on consoles, would give them enough headroom for 3-4 player splitscreen by halving the frame rate. Of course it will have that splitscreen...right? D:
I like the look of the Crash remakes but I never did like the artstyle of the originals and CTR personally.
I hope this is real and the fans get the kart racer they love!
2-player CTR is one of my fondest gaming memories. Incredible kart racer!!
Arguably the best.
It was a forced comparison of the time because of console wars. CTR is MUUUUUUUUUUUCH closer to DKR than Mario Kart. DKR and Crash owned at single player fun, and MK64 dusted them both in multiplayer on the back of much better stages and item balance.
All 3 were great (including beetle adventure racing) which is why the argument can go on endlessly. None of the games were bad, so you can literally argue it forever.
You sure you what you played was CTR? The one you're describing is actually closer to MK64 lol
Yeah no, just no. Mario Kart 64 is slow and the items are not as good as the one in Crash Team Racing.
I disagree completely, both remaster lack subtitles, this is unacceptable in my eyes, and the Crash remaster just has terrible hit detection, wonky physics, no option to play Crash 1 with the Crash new moves from Crash 2.
Plus unlike Sypro remastered Activision didn't invite the original composer to return, despite the fact he was willing to come back.
Activision can do so much better.
Sure the other concerns and issues are annoying but, you would have to rework the level layout of Crash 1 to make Crash 2's new moves work well, you could literally see a mod on how they work on PC, here's an example
I like CTRs adventure mode but I don't think it's that good honestly. Do a race. Do a race getting letters, do a race breaking crates. Play a battle map collecting crystals, rinse repeat. The core way the races play out doesn't change. I prefer something like Mario Kart DS's mission mode a lot more. The challenges were more varied than anything in CTR even if the structure was a lot more straight forward. I wish we could get a combination of CTR adventure with Mario Kart DS Mission mode objectives
I never played the original, so def will try this.
I really hope this one is multiplatfrom out the gate. Last time I was going to hold out until it was announced for PC, and I ended up buying it like a month before it was announced lol No moneyhat please. Let me just buy it on the platform I want since I know its going to be multiplat at some point anyways.
