Whether it’s the PS4 or the Xbox One X, our testing indicates that Nitro-Fueled doggedly sticks to that 30 FPS target.

Moreover, the conservative framerate allows Nitro-Fueled to hit very consistent levels of performance across PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. This smoothens thing out but softens the image considerable-again, not an issue considering the target aesthetic. A temporal AA solution appears to be in use. We’re ordinarily not big fans of heavy bloom effects but in Nitro-Fueled, bloom lighting helps bring out that cartoon aesthetic. Meanwhile, we see effective use of ambient occlusion, with foliage and other incident objects receiving indirect shading. The per-object motion blur implementation is, as we’d mentioned, important in conveying motion even at 30 FPS. The post-process pipeline in Nitro-Fueled is worth talking about: It plays a big role in bringing out the game’s filmic sensibility. However, the heavy use of post-process effects, particularly the per-object motion blur mean that Nitro-Fueled still manages to convey that sense of motion very well.

We’re a little miffed by Beenox’s decision to go with a locked 30 FPS update on all platforms-Mario Kart on the Switch runs at 60. This is a racing game, and as such, conveying the sense of motion is very important. This is understandable, considering the aesthetic Beenox is aiming for. Physically-based materials aren’t in use here. Texture work and material rendering is, well, generations ahead, and holds up well on higher resolution displays. A deferred rendering solution for lighting brings with it the most noticeable change-compared to the 1999 original, most light-sources are dynamic and, together with generous use of bloom lighting, Nitro-Fueled manages to capture the aesthetic of a CGI movie. We’ve certainly seen better visuals in mainstream AAA titles but keep in mind that Nitro-Fueled’s aim isn’t to push the limits, but rather to reintroduce a classic late-90s kart racer on newer hardware. Nitro-Fueled is built on Beenox’s in-house engine. Game Engine Highlights, Comparison With Original Today, we’re going to take a deep dive into the technical underpinnings of the Nitro-Fueled, how it stands up to the original, and how it scales across different platforms.

Vicarious Visions, the developers of the N Sane Trilogy aren’t at the helm of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled (which we’re henceforth referring to as Nitro-Fueled because, seriously, that’s a mouthful.) Instead, Beenox-another studio in the Activision stable-helmed development. But with the spotlight focused on Crash these days, what better way to reintroduce this underappreciated racer than a full-on remaster? While it sold well enough-and cemented Naughty Dog’s position as a key Playstation studio- Crash Team Racing never quite received the attention it deserved. This was a spectacularly under-appreciated game, having arrived during peak Mario Kart, with Mario Kart 64 making waves, and the Double Dash just a few years away. And just like Mario and Sonic have their kart racing games, Crash Team Racing was Naughty Dog’s 1998 take on the genre. Video game spinoffs have had a rather sketchy history, but one spinoff genre that’s always done well is kart racing. This is where Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled comes into picture.

CRASH TEAM RACING PS1 PSN SERIES

After 2008’s Crash outing, Mind Over Mutant, received mixed reviews, the series was put on hold for nearly a decade.īut with a new audience having experienced Crash for the first time, Activision’s evidently seen money to be made. The N.Sane Trilogy brought attention back to this classic series. (Well, to be honest, I wouldn’t know since I was a year old when the first Crash game came out). Instead, it preserved the wonder of having played the original. It didn’t feel like playing an eighth-gen Crash game. The leap from fifth-gen to eighth-gen visuals was spectacular but what made the trilogy truly worthwhile was how it stuck doggedly to the original’s level design. Vicarious Visions, an Activision studio, brought these back to life for newer audiences with the exceptional Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy. The mainline Crash Bandicoot games were your typical late-90s platformers. Before they became famous for bringing Indiana Jones’ Gen X grand-nephew to the smallish screen, our canine companions were better known for the Crash Bandicoot series, the closest Sony’s ever gotten to an iconic mainstream video game character your mum would know about. But look a bit further back into their history and you’d see why the name is apt. When you think about, Naughty Dog isn’t exactly the most appropriate name for a studio that’s brought us The Last of Us and the Uncharted series, perhaps the closest the genre’s come to the spectacle of blockbuster Hollywood movies.
