Seems about what i expected, which is a nice but not impressive metacritic score.

The originals got a 85/86 on gamerankings, Warped got 91 metacritic. I expected anywhere from 80-84 rounded up.

I'm sure if Mario 64 was remade, it'd get the same treatment.

And 82 is a very, very good score. I'm happy for Crash actually.

I feel as tho reviewers have no idea how to rate remastered versions of old games. In general, not just this one in particular.

they have no idea how to rate remasters or enhanced ports period.
No reason why Bioshock Collection or Skyrim SE score 10 points less than the originals and games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe gain 4 points, while games like GTA V and Last of Us Remastered have the exact same score.

 

This has become increasingly apparent, especially for older games that don't conform to modern game design (namely platformers).

Anyways, pretty good scores for Crash.

Yup, one point extra of every new feature. Could have been a 94. Guess we'll never know.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

seems like they don't understand the mechanics of what they're reviewing.

when it comes to playstation games, reviewers are over critical and nitpickey about the dumbest shit you can think of.

C'mon, man! You don't believe that. For one thing, PlayStation games tend to get some of the highest reviews of any games on the market! And there's rumor that this game isn't going to stay exclusive--it's not made by Sony or Naughty Dog.

 

I still have the original PS versions on Vita for nostalgia's sake. Good memories but (for me), even games from the PS2 era have gameplay/mechanic flaws that are hard to overlook after years of refinement. I guess we'll just have to wait until tomorrow and see if the criticism is justified.
