Crash has all that crazy charm he did originally, if not more, but more liveliness and cuteness on top of it, less of the off-putting edgy ugliness. It's still there, but just the right amount for a character like him.
Aku Aku looks like he did in Warped, pretty much. Less ooga booga, more mystical.
Dr. Cortex actually looks a bit more generic actually. Can't all be winners.
Tawna has none of that unnerving furfag presentation characters like her and Candy Kong had in the 90's. She just seems like a pretty bandicoot woman now.
Not a fan of Crash for some reason. The way the fur sticks out like he just got out of a pool reminds me of the Xbox Crash model in Wrath of Cortex.
Cameron Edwards
It's only because cortex isn't poseing He has all the detail
Ryder Lopez
WOAH
Austin Hill
Well, the posture doesn't help, but I liked how PS1 Cortex's bug eyes were attached to the brow, how puffy his eye bags are, how much emphasis was put on his teeth, the striking shape of his beard, how his fat lower lip acted as his chin. PS4 Cortex looks less cartoony in comparison. PS1 Cortex really sticks out to me.
Brandon Brown
I think the fuzz works for him. Doesn't look over-done and shitty, like it did for XBox Concur.
Dominic Baker
I agree. But Crash's lines are complete ass now. His colors and animations are okay but otherwise the sculpt just isn't there, almost like WoC's model. Why are his eyes so narrow? Why are they so triangular? Where are his cheekbones? Why is his mouth so rounded? Why are his teeth half their normal size?
Jack Sanchez
Where's Coco?
Noah Hughes
I think they look like shit considering what year it is. Like an average tier PS3 graphics.
Joseph Green
His skylanders design is good too, but I prefer the new one.
She'll be revealed soon enough, I'd bet.
Christian Hill
fucking adorbs
Eli Foster
They should work on making her that cute in-game this time. PS1 Coco was cute but didn't small or young enough, I thought she was Crash's new GF when I first started CB2.
Leo Johnson
Tawnas remake hair is spot on. I like it.
Mason Mitchell
You can only do so much with a cartoon artstyle
David Diaz
WOAH!
Dominic Perez
I don't like the new Cortex look or voice.
Other than that I'm so fucking hyped.
John Peterson
new cortex needs to emote more
new crash needs bigger irises
Levi Cox
Out of all the designs I think they really nailed Cortex. Too bad they couldn't get back the guy that did the voice in 2 and 3. He was perfect for the role in the more pure evil days of Cortex.
Evan Sanchez
to be fair, lex lang at least does a good job taking what clancy did and making it goofier as opposed to creating a whole new voice for him (like brio)
Owen Gomez
>Tawna has none of that unnerving furfag presentation characters like her and Candy Kong had in the 90's. She just seems like a pretty bandicoot woman now. Theres something wrong with this statement
Carter Murphy
I don't think anyone could replace Clancy. I'd like mods that replaces the Cortex lines, the sound effects, and the music with the original composer's arranged tracks. Someone will probably make those.
Justin Wright
Pretty for a cartoon bandicoot, not hypersexualized. Hypersexualized humans are fine, for animals it's disgusting.
Jose Richardson
I mean my dick says otherwise
Michael Gonzalez
>Tawna
Charles Green
I sorda see.
90s looks like just solely there to be a piece of ass with a tude face.
Remake looks like an actual character and not just an idea.
Samuel Hill
>tude face Yup
Isaac Allen
>the tiki mask isn't making a goofy face anymore
SOILED IT
Nathan Young
Could be worse.
Hunter King
>mods >on a PS4 game
I think it's because I associate that voice with the last non-ND Crash game I played. Tag team racing. And I fucking hated that game.
Sebastian Cooper
soo hyped!
Liam Reed
Did he even make a goofy face in 2 and 3?
Luis Turner
Something about Cortex past the PS1 games has always bugged the shit out of me.
Jace Russell
he was more goofy than threatening He should be like Dr Eggman, who is a perfect balance of funny and threatening
Henry Nelson
I would like these games more if the level design wasn't so repetitive.
Jace Long
Holy shit that's downright terrifying.
Same here. It's weird.
Liam Edwards
>Aku Aku's feathers are missing 0/10 I won't support this shitty re"master". This is a travesty of the highest caliber.
Isaiah Miller
Like said, they made him a lot more goofy as time went on. A particular highlight of this was in Twinsanity.
Daniel Hill
in the games, Aku Aku only had 4 feathers
Adam Barnes
Crash Nitro Kart, I feel did a good job at keeping Cortex menising like in the PS1 games, but putting him in goofy situations, like Tiny's clumsiness
Jackson Young
That's real great faggot but think of all the fur porn it will spawn. As if they didn't have enough shit on the net.
Hudson Sanchez
Eh, I think Cortex should be more threatening than funny. His presence was perfect in Crash 2 and 3.
Caleb Morris
I don't go to furry places or autismal rule34 sites so why should I fucking care?
Elijah Price
I'll have to look at some cutscenes of that then. I never played that one.
Nolan Howard
The more I watch the trailer the happier I am that this thing is really fucking happening.
I know it's said a lot, but a CTR remake with online, and a Spyro remake would also be amazing.
That's assuming that each remake is successful and leads to new games in the series. Imagine getting a new CTR, or a new Crash platformer every few years. And in those games you input a code to unlock the demo for the Spyro games.
That'd certainly be cool. Though Activision has a long way to go if you ask me. This is merely the stepping stones to see if they can get things right.
Gavin Collins
Well yeah what I said was totally unrealistic really. It'd just be a cool thing. Considering how nostalgia is really in right now, they could kinda recreate the 90s for some great pr and marketing.
What the hell is Aku Aku based on? I know a lot of things in the series are based on Australian things, so I assume he's from some kind of Australian folk lore?
Jayden Roberts
Just watched my bro play through the first Crash. Fucker kept me on edge for most of the playthrough. He did get a few game overs and I had to help his ass out a couple times but he did much better than I thought he would. The dude is 18 and seemingly has no spatial awareness.
I don't think he's based anything in particular. He's just a magicked witch doctor's mask
Caleb Lee
Oh okay. Damn that's a bit disappointing. Always thought he might have been.
Did he even interact with Crash in the first game? Was he a character outside the gameplay? Or was all the information gotten from the manual?
Jackson Martinez
We already fixed Tawna, just have to hope VVisions does the same thing.
Elijah Ortiz
looks like if AkuAku and UkaUka fused
Cooper Evans
In the first game he didn't interact with Crash at all. In fact, Aku Aku didn't properly interact with Crash or Coco until Crash 3. I believe most info on him was indeed in the manual at the time.
Jackson Cooper
So as we can see, Crash lost all personality with trash tier animations and faces, same with Cortex, and Tawna is just a fuck up.
Dylan Smith
If I'm to be completely honest, Cortex looks great...except for his brown hair.
I hate the brown hair
Christopher Cruz
Yeah thinking back I don't remember any interactions outside of warped. I never played 1 so I wasn't exactly sure.
Xavier Watson
>Crash Indifferent, it's neither an improvement nor a downgrade, stayed true to the original more or less. >Aku Aku This one I do not like the change to. >Neo Cortex Indifferent again. >Tawna Also indifferent and you're a retard and a furry.
Aiden Long
Cortex's jaw isn't low enough.
Juan Gonzalez
the off-putting edgy ugliness was what made crash crash. im mad about his new design, its shit.
Matthew Morris
Yeah, in 1 and 2. He's basically a powerup. Sure he has a backstory to him, but it wasn't really important at all until 3.
Ryan Lewis
>tfw no ass
Brayden Bell
she has ass there, though
it's just overshadowed by tits
Alexander Powell
I concur with you in every single point.
Angel Gutierrez
I don't know. If I'm honest I've never seen an HD rendition of Crash that I've liked, either the Skylanders one or this new one.
Call me nostalgic but I think that the original PS1 model has a charm of its own because of the low poly nature. Trying to make a new one looks like when people do those realistic versions of cartoon characters.
You know what I want to see? A new Crash game where everything has the HD treatment EXCEPT for Crash, who uses his PS1 model.
Thomas Nguyen
>YOU MUST DEVOUR THE SEVEN CRYSTAL BABIES OR FOREVER BE IN DEEP DIDGERIDOO
Chase Stewart
Those 90's 3D promo pictures... Are they really 3D models? Somehow they look like a bunch of stretched 2D layers when looking closely.
Jonathan White
Since they're PS1 remakes, how much do you think they'll charge for it?
$40? Full $60 because Sony?
Jordan Cox
> teeth
Because the huge redneck teeth were ugly. Just look at Crash 1's boxart. Extremely dire.
Charles Sanders
>A new Crash game where everything has the HD treatment EXCEPT for Crash, who uses his PS1 model. So you want them to pull a Metal Gear Solid?
Because I like your idea.
John Green
I wish full 60. I don't want this to be a one-off thing. I want sequels.
Jacob Scott
> I want Crash himself to be shit
There it is again! Where do you keep coming from, and why do you hate Crash with such a burning passion?
Leo Jones
it was already confirmed for a $40 price.
>I want sequels. you do know they are doing all 3 games, right?
Jayden Perry
She's not?
William Young
This is the first time I've posted that actually. And I don't want Crash to be shit; my issue is that every HD rendition I've seen of him looks garbage. Unnecessary levels of detail that make him look awful.
I'm not saying it's impossible to make a new version of Crash that's good; just that all the attempts so far have failed. Whereas the PS1 model looks fine and is super expressive.
Grayson Kelly
Get that abomination out of here!
Brayden Adams
Crash can't be this one relic of the past among beautifully rendered contemporary mascot-like characters.
The problem could be in the actual animations instead, in which he doesn't have as extreme expressions as before. But new Crash is cuter and less stiff, and has much more emphasis on body animations rather than just the face.
It seems like a lot of people want Crash to be this grotesque, unattractive Ren & Stimpy type character, and I need to object strongly to that. Crash is much better off as this crazy character you kinda want to hug.
Brody Morris
You don't even know how bad he got it.
Benjamin Martin
Why goofier? Fuck goofier. If you're going to make it goofier, you need to balance it by making it more menacing as well.
Oliver Watson
I want to fight Coco in Crash 1 and tell her everything will be WOAH!
Ethan Young
...
Andrew Mitchell
Don't post this claim it's not furry.
Brayden Flores
I'll grant I miss both Clancy Brown and especially Brendan O'Brian in the cut scenes we've seen, but I'll at least give Lex credit: he's not hamming Cortex into the more modern flamboyant one.
Maurice LeMarche on the other hand, he just can't nail Brendan's giggly nervous tic and high pitch he gave Brio.
Jonathan Adams
they are all worse desu but Cortex is definitely the worst his hair is too light and not jagged enough makes him look way less evil
Charles Kelly
>Crash 2 and 3 remakes >They keep the more recent Tiny Tiger voice-acting
Jeremiah Wright
I get where you're coming from. And I'll agree with you that there's a weird compulsion for redone versions to make him look ugly; the remaster version is the best attempt at a new look.
I don't know. I'd like to see a bunch of different artists give Crash a new look, to see if there's a better way to do a modern version of him.
Grayson Green
>his hair is too light and not jagged enough makes him look way less evil I don't even think it's that, that's an overall problem desu, all of the models are less jagged and ligher in colora honestly, not as many darker, solid colors.
The worst part about Cortex is he looks like he's lost all of his personality. He looks less like a freaky hunch-backed angry man and more like a generic kids show villain, they've drained him of that personality in his design that kind of freaked me out as a kid.
James Miller
Tawna body is disgusting, if you dont want to make her a bimbo atleast make her torso shorter and longer legs
Jacob Cooper
The thing that bugs me most about Cortex is I've got a huge divorce of how the character looks from in game to promotional art.
In game, Cortex isn't so curry colored yellow. He's more peach/tan in tone, depending on the game. So when post Naughty Dog games made him full mustard bottle, it was rather jarring to at least me.
Andrew White
Originals look better. This game didn't even need shitty HD release.
Jacob Baker
They fucked up his dance though
Zachary Powell
nude mods when
Xavier Mitchell
I don't like it. Just give me the original games with a higher resolution and improved saving mechanics.
Landon Price
Eh it makes her look more cartoony and animalistic, same with the paws and ears. I don't mind it, it fits more with Crash's proportions too, without making her look like a grotesque dwarf.
Robert Lopez
It took exactly 47 seconds to load OP's image due to the new image servers wtf is wrong with you hiroshima
Ryan Bell
...
Sebastian Myers
It took 6 second for me, i think the problem is on your end.
