blondbassist Haha I just commented saying I just got this game today and my plan was to get every box on every level!...after the very first level the plan changed!😂 now I'm just gonna be happy to make it through every level! It's reminded me how much harder games were when I was a kid! Can I ask if u use the control stick or d pad to move Crash?
@@markwheeler4245, I use the analog stick. I tried to use the D-Pad, but it's less comfortable due to being used to gaming with the analog stick for many years instead, and I remember once as a kid my finger got swollen from playing _Crash_ for hours with the D-Pad. By the way, the first _Crash_ game is hard. Crash doesn't have the abilities he has in later games asides of spinning and jumping, and some hard levels may take place during the beginning of the game. The boss battles are easier, though.
I remember when I would have sega vs nintendo arguments with friends in high school... I'm glad the guys at digital foundry weren't there... "well actually n64 version has a few frames dropped per sercond on the 2nd level and shadow detail is lowered"..
Neurotyczny Kot remember in the early 2000s when All rare games like Banjo-kazoie, killer instinct, Perfect dark where near thought of being played on an Xbox... that was a ridiculous thought.
This isn't the first time he's been on a Nintendo console. Wrath of Cortex was released on the Gamecube and he had a slew of exclusive games on the Game Boy Advance. Made by the same people that made this trilogy, in fact. (Vicarious Visions). Though this is the first time the original trilogy has been on a console other than a Playstation.
Plastic box? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! MY COMPUTER'S CASE IS MADE OF METAL YOU PEASANTS!!! *AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!* (Dies)
i'll defend Switch, but not go any further and trash other consoles. They all have aspects that make them good. On the other hand, no one in this comment section has any right to trash another plastic box when they all have kinks and bugs to work out.
I love watching this channel when Switch ports come out. You guys always find every possible flaw and if I find myself saying "that's all?" , then I know the game is a must buy for me. Minor graphic differences won't keep me from enjoying great games anywhere I want. Great video as always!
A remake could imply changes to the gameplay and give off a false impression, most (not all) remade games change not only the graphics but the style of play for example the RE 2 remake, and the FF7 remake, a remaster only updates the graphics with newer technology, while its technically correct to call it a remake since none of the original assets were used, its alot less confusing to consumers since remakes tend to hold more drastic changes than a graphics overhaul.
AL2009man no, a remaster is when you take existing code and Spruce it up (literally no source code of the original game is around). A remake is when you build it from scratch to "remake the game", which is exactly what they did. I don't give a shit what anyone says.
I chuckled when you were talking about the flow being ruined by loading, only to have an ad interrupt the video shortly after. Either way, great video as always, love your work.
Actually PC version can go up to 144hz with a bug: Unlock frame rate workaround: Start the game and set it to Borderless Window and Vsync on. Close the settings menu.

Close settings and change your refresh rate to 144 Hz. Now the game will run at 144 Hz. Notes Don't open the settings again, or your frame rate will fall to 48 again.
i did not even need to do this... i used fast sync and it would stay uncapped and without fast sync i would just need to turn of vsync to have unlocked frame rate xD
if you go into the nvidia control panel and turn on fast sync for the game it works 100% some people me included and just turn off vsync and it uncapped the frame rate but this has worked for alot of people with nvidia cards
I dunno, fast sync usually looks horrible - lots of added judder and just a general lack of fluidity even though the frame-rate is high. I'll give it a shot, though, to see if it varies for this game.
All these comments complaining about how inferior the Switch port is. And I'm just sitting here enjoying the hell out of it. At least it doesn't run like the Rime port does. *shivers*
Crash bandicoot on the PC has an unlocked frame-rate. There are instructions on how to uncap the frame-rate in the steam forums. I play at a stable 144fps and it's butter smooth.
Kind of... it was 60 on PS2 (an even older/weaker console), at least. The GameCube version was buggier than some beta builds, and suffered from a lot of framerate dips, not to mention some weird polygon sorting issues.
These guys are the c.s.i. of video games,...this channel deserves wayyyyy more subs.every time they release a new vid I feel like a kid on Saturday morning all over again.
I would rather have 720p handheld on switch with further optimisation than the 480p. Aim for a Super Mario Odyssey level of detail... which looks awesome still (it's 60FPS even... so this game could have more details if aiming for 30FPS)
Odin's Playground This game isn't optimized at all on a per console basis. They made the game, then just set whatever resolutions and settings without doing any additional optimizations for architectures. There is no reason that it doesn't offer a 60fps mode, at least on the Pro and X. And the X isn't twice as powerful as the Pro, yet it's pushing MORE than twice the pixel count? You're telling me the Pro couldn't have done even 1620p or 1800p? Just blech
I personally think there could be more optimization done to bring the resolution up to 600 or 650p in handheld mode with some slight visual cuts. 480p is bearable though, but not ideal.
I dunno there is slowdown on the Switch version no doubt but I've been playing it in handheld mode and the latency feels fine for me. As you said the fact it's even on the Switch to begin with is an achievement despite the compromises.
dani_i89 Bro, at least It's playable on the switch and I'm able to play it wherever I want. Although they sacrificed the game to 480p they foucused on graphics. Also, the whole switch rocking 480p is bs look at Mario Kart Deluxe and other games besides Wolfenstein.
You have to keep in mind these games are being played on a 6 inch screen so the graphical downgrades are FAR less noticeable. I can attest to this as a Switch owner who received my copy of Crash for it today.
@dani_i89 - Fail. Try harder. Wolfenstein 2 can dip to low resolutions, yes, but overall it runs at 720p / 30fps in docked mode and it targets that in handheld mode. It uses Dynamic Resolution to maintain a stable performance. What else are you expecting from a graphics intensive game running on a 6" tablet?
If you want to call running it in fullscreen mode and disabling v-sync a "workaround", that is. The dumb part is that the devs aren't conveying that possibility at all.
I so f*cking love this game! I play it on PC and I'm currently at 88% of the first game (only a few trials and gems left). It doesn't matter how hard it is and how many times I have to try again a time trial to finally get a Platinum Relic on a map, it doesn't stop being fun and I can't really get angry because of it. And as I heard, Crash 2 and Crash 3 is even better, so I can't wait to play them too. My only real problem is the lack of support for arbitrary resolutions and aspect ratios, such as 21:9 (I have a 21:9 monitor). I mean I can play that way using HEX edits, but a lot of things will be empty outside of the 16:9 area. Developers should have future-proofed the game more.
Lol its basically an enhanced Switch port. They should have just released it on Switch but they wanted to milk more money so they slapped a remastered label on it lol.
To be fair, the devs called the N Sane Trilogy a AAA remaster. They set the bar for good remasters by putting in this much effort. And if Dark Souls got this treatment, it would probably take a huge hit on performance. Doesn't mean companies shouldn't be striving for this in the future.
Yeah, a 30fps platformer with botched collision is so amazing. I guess as long as the graphics are improved it doesn't matter that it plays worse than the original, or still has the same frame rate despite the game design being simple enough for a PS2 to handle.
Francisco Rodrigo I'm talking about this Crash remake. As far as on console goes, at least Dark Souls Remastered is 60fps instead of the original (sub) 30fps, and plays like the original only better because of 60fps. Where this on the other hand is still a 30fps platformer and plays worse than the original because of the botched collision. I would definitely rather buy Dark Souls Remastered than buy this game, although I did buy both.
Nuce video! Small correction, thought, the pc version can easily run at above 60fps by disabling vsync from the nvidia control panel and it feels amazing
I bought this game for the Switch over my Xbone. Know why? Because I can play Crash on my lunch break, on the shitter, in bed, in the car while my girl goes to get her nails done. I don't care about those details, the game is mad fun and I can play it anywhere on Switch. That is the magic of Switch and why I buy games for it. It's fucking awesome.
@Digital Foundry thanks for pointing out that there's no reason why this game shouldn't run at 60fps on the pro and 1X. Hopefully someone from activision watches this and adds a 60fps mode 👍
Watching DF really puts you off buying any games for the Nintendo Switch. I haven't bought any games for the Switch since I became a DF subscriber three months ago.
Hi DF, thanks for another great video. Best gaming analysis on the internets. I'm playing on Xbox One X and have reported consistent frame-rate drops in the level Hang 'Em High on Crash Warped in the side-scrolling section. Otherwise it seems pretty solid.
Hey John! Great video as always, but why didn't you use the dpad or the facebuttons for your inputlag comparison. This way you could rule out, if it's a deadzone issue or not.
man, Crash 2017 looks like a 2015 UE game; they could have reached a smooth 1080p 60 even on the switch with those graphics, it´s just not optimized for anything, the HUGE loading times they used to have for such a small footprint (level) and the pc test proves it all.
AndreaFromTokyo yeah, vicarious visions aren't good devs. The loading times were insaneee before this launch. And the lack of 60fps is so sad. And the fact that they're advertising HDR when it's just a tone mapped SDR that arguably makes the image WORSE...
The console versions really could use a 60fps option, knowing the very good optimization on PC wich is an open platform with various possible configurations, they could easily do it on consoles with their locked enviroment.
Incorrect John, the game isn't capped to 60fps on PC, if you turn off vsync in game it'll go as high as your pc and monitor is capable, I've been playing at 165fps.
Digital Foundry for sure is our eagle eye, I remerber many people saying that Crash on the Switch looks the same as the other versions but DF look at the tiniest thing. Well I still play my Switch version of Crash, this video did not made it any less fun to play
Is the control latency worse on Switch in general or is it just this game? I don't mind any of the graphical setbacks but the latency made me skip this one on the Switch
I did not notice any if not much latency on pc but when I was helping a younger sibling of mine on the ps4 I noticed noticeable latency I think it is just the console versions tbh with 30fps and a few other things having shit latency on the console made me die a few times xD
yeah i played it on ps4 before it came to pc i did not notice it as much as i do now after playing it on pc and then after playing it on ps4 i was probably experiencing a better version running 4k 60 with less input lag and it has probably been a big difference altogether compared to just the input latency being worse its probably all of that together that i noticed such a huge difference
With PC you can break the 60fps lock. If you look around online there's ways around it, I've tested it and it's not too hard. The game's options won't reflect 144hz or anything above 60, but steam's fps counter and your eyes will certainly tell you different.
I just find it odd how the consoles are all capped at 30 fps while I currently have a I7 4770K / G1 970 tested with this game at 1440P and I get 60 fps while still having head room of around 85% left for the CPU and around 15/20% left for the 970. You would think the Xbox X would have a 1440P 60 fps option much like the PS Pro version.
That's what I have been thinking. Hopefully they will patch the game on console for 60 fps. No reason it should be 30 fps. I mean I see the switch staying at 30 but Xbox 1 / PS4 and up no reason at all
In my opinion. I think Crash is good Switch port. I'm glad that they stuck with the one resolution option. Not much of a fan of resolution scaling. Game plays fine on Switch even in portable.
It would be nice if it ran at 900p, but maybe due to the engine, 900p wasn't possible without sacrificing more effects. I think the engine is to blame. I can even see the base ps4/Xbox one running at 60fps.
MadFinnTech I'd have to agree, which is why I play all multiplats on PC. However, it does not mean games cannot be enjoyable on console. I'm currently playing God of War on PS4, would playing it at 60 fps be more ideal? Sure, but the game is so fun and immersive I can set aside the 30 fps and just enjoy the game. All of these platforms have benefits.
Dad_Shoes Sucks that your having these issues. But it sounds like your PC is a laptop. Maybe it's a common problem your model has and there's a solution for it online? Bios update? Drivers?
TheNinjaCrash The difference 60fps makes over 30 in platformers can't be understated. The fluidity and responsiveness is honestly game changing. It's 2018, not 1998... 60 can and should be the standard for platformers.
Turtlebird Oh no, trust me I know the importance of 60FPS. I've gone on record saying fighting games and competitive shooters are unplayable without a ROCK SOLID 60FPS. And games that requires precision are 100% better with 60FPS as well. But, for some games a solid 30 is "fine" Not optimal, but adequate. Especially if the game is being sold as a visual spectacle rather than a technical achievement. If you HAVE to choose visual spectacle vs 60FPS(because consoles), some games the dip is acceptable. The fact that I, and plenty other people played and beat these games back in the day at 30FPS, means it's not so bad in this case.
It's playable of course, I'm not saying it isn't. But this is definitely a game that, in my opinion anyway, really deserves to be played at 60fps or higher. Crash is the exact type of 3D platformer that feels significantly better with the reduced latency and increased fluidity. (Don't forget the physics in the N Sane Trilogy are also a little more loose than the originals) Full disclosure that I haven't actually picked this up on Steam yet, but there's tons of testimonials I've read from owners of both PS4 and PC versions who are saying the difference is night and day. Hopefully I'm not sounding like a snob, lol. My whole point was that for this particular game, I'll take the higher fluidity and better response time over portability.
The lack of fur shading actually makes Crash's model look better and more faithful to the original. And the lighting on the Switch version seems more realistic compared to other consoles
I've been looking forward to this comparison from DF, cause I knew I was missing something from my initial impressions of Switch performance. Despite now being aware of the downgrades, I'm still enjoying it more on my Switch than PS4. It just feels so right on the go.
Sony fans had the game a year before anyone else, Xbox and PC fans get higher quality versions of the game, and Switch owners can take it on the go. Everyone's a winner!
I just recall them getting super gassed up and obnoxious about it being exclusive when it was first revealed for PS4, bet they're super salty at Sony for not money hatting it as a permanent exclusive.
Zen Not really. No point in trying to make an IP they don't own an exclusive it is just a waste of money (anyone who thinks otherwise is too deep in stupid fanboyism) when they could just make new games with that money instead. Plus Crash has been multiplatform for generations now it is just that non-Naughty Dog Crash games suck so much that people are not aware of their existence.
I enjoyed the collection first on PS4 and now on PC. Great experience overall and a example how a remaster should be made. Stay exited for Spyro too later this year.
It could run at 60 on base consoles too, this deserves outrage, when 60 FPS is so easy to reach on PC (where different hardware can be difficult to optimisme for) there is no excuse they couldn't do it on consoles Also it's a shame it doesn't go above 60 on PC, when it's so easy to run its nice to get use out of your high framerate monitors
Indeed. That's why I boycott this game and skipped it on PS4. There was no technical reason it was capped at 30 fps. I'll get this for PC eventually, when it's dirt cheap, like maximum 5 EUR.
If they can get it to run on switch at 30fps, they can do 60fps on even the base consoles. Havent most of the games ported from PS4 and XOne to Switch been 60fps titles like Doom and Wolfienstien, Snake Pass was 30fps but I cant think of other games.
I honestly prefer these types of downgrades than what we got for Wolf 2. If I cared about graphics I'd get it on PC cause 60fps > everything but Im gonna pick this up on Switch to be my train game.
BlackDildoBoyWithDiabetesBehindACamera Horsecock He said he prefers downgrades over blurry resolution and bad frame rate. Don’t know how you got the opposite.
Honestly I'm really glad I got this for PC yesterday. I'm using a PS3 controller connected via bluetooth using SCPToolkit, the Helix mod which lets you remove the fur effect to look more like classic Crash, it's set to run at 60fps, and there's another mod to replace the in-game Xbox controller buttons with the Playstation ones, and I'm using the 21:9 community patch on my ultrawide monitor. If you don't want frame pacing issues, chocolate lions, and the most authentic experience possible, PC is the only way to go. Running 30fps vs 60fps is night and day when it comes to precise platforming.
According to the PC Gaming Wiki, there is a way to up the FPS on the PC for a high refresh rate, I haven't tested it though do to me using 60FPS across the board for my kit.
Please correct this video, you CAN go over 60fps on PC, it's all over the Steam forums and it's obvious you didn't test it before parroting this misinformation. If running a GSync display, all it takes is running at full screen with Vsync turned off to get uncapped framerates. With a 1080Ti I get a solid 144fps at 1440p. Also ultra wide support is available with a small fix like from the guys at WAF.
lol PC is a platform made for gaming, hence such a thing as gaming desktops and gaming laptops and dedicated gpus. Without a dedicated gpu a PC can't even run this game
Dickyboy 23 No? Because Windows was made for doing work, primarily. Gaming became a thing because... Idk. But since work is designed to be its main function and gaming just a side-function it still does better than consoles at it. Consoles' sole purpose is to play games, but yet cannot beat the PC. What more do I have to say?

True, the fact that PCs are sold for gaming is a thing, but I'm also talking about the OS. The OS wasn't built around gaming but eventually became the most popular gaming OS as far as PCs are concerned. But I'd argue that there are more things you can do that are gaming-related on PC than on console. There are more games on PC, PCs can perform much better than consoles and look better assuming you have good hardware and the price of the PC is up to you, so it becomes more affordable, which is a point neglected by console peasants. I'd prefer PC gaming over every other form of gaming, unless special cases occur.
you guys should do more input lag comparison between switch and other consoles on multiplatform games, I feel like the switch has some native input lag that I don't like at all!
Am gonna pick up the Switch version, I know it's 720p docked and 480p Portable mode but I don't mind. The input delay is very small (but I hope they will fix it with a patch in a future update) and I know it has some framerate drops but they are so small and aren't frequent enough for me to not buy this version.
XtraKade Gaming Then just do it. Why comment this? I’m tired of seeing comment sections with comments like this and then seeing sales of games reaching 1/10 of Xbox and Playstation sales.
Wow this was the best comparison by far! I must say that after playing this on the PS4 I can’t go back to the Switch. Even though the Switch is portable I rather play it via remote play on my Vita. Even the Vita via remote play looks better.
You actually can go over 60fps on PC if your monitor supports it. Vsync can override the game settings, though you might have to force it in your GPU control panel. As for the 30fps cap on X/Pro I feel like they kept it because of the online time trial leaderboards to not give an advantage to the players on the new consoles (input lag difference between 30/60 fps and such).
Whoops, made a small error a little after the 14 minute mark - repeating the same line. Oh well, it’s worth repeating. Deja vu.
John Linneman I'd have gone with the second take ;)
Happens to the best of us sometimes.
Haha, that part threw me off a little bit- not gonna lie lol
perhaps a glitch in the matrix?
I like to think you were just emphasizing how much stronger the GPU in the X1X is by saying it twice :)
"Deja vu... I have said the same line before,"
Seeing Crash run past all of the crates is triggering me.
Never thought I'd see Johnny Bravo being triggered, considering he's the king of triggering.

Model Z considering the switch is a handheld device it's really impressive
I'm pretty sure the game can look like a slice of potato skin on switch and ya'll will still be happy about it since it can be played on the go...
Teh Foxxy then I'm sure you've never heard of WWE... No one likes that game on the Switch.
If it looked like a potato, no one would be happy with. Don't take us switch owners for idiots. Crash is a good portion and is totally playable
Thanks to digital Foundry you guys are amazing, I'm glad I own this on the Xbox One X
John, don't you mean remake, not a remaster. They rebuilt the game from the ground up, not remaster the orignal version.
madmax2069 I wish I had people like you around me when I keep getting told Smash Ultimate is a port. lol
A remake could imply changes to the gameplay and give off a false impression, most (not all) remade games change not only the graphics but the style of play for example the RE 2 remake, and the FF7 remake, a remaster only updates the graphics with newer technology, while its technically correct to call it a remake since none of the original assets were used, its alot less confusing to consumers since remakes tend to hold more drastic changes than a graphics overhaul.

Actually PC version can go up to 144hz with a bug:
Unlock frame rate workaround:
Start the game and set it to Borderless Window and Vsync on.
Close the settings menu.
Change your refresh rate to 60 Hz from Nvidia Control Panel or from Windows display settings.
The game will now run with 20 or 48 FPS. Go to the settings and it will jump to 60 FPS.
Close settings and change your refresh rate to 144 Hz. Now the game will run at 144 Hz.
Notes
Don't open the settings again, or your frame rate will fall to 48 again.
Good to know because I happen to have a 165Hz display.
i did not even need to do this... i used fast sync and it would stay uncapped and without fast sync i would just need to turn of vsync to have unlocked frame rate xD
I'll have to test this again. I tried this with my 75hz display and it didn't work out. Thanks for the heads up!
if you go into the nvidia control panel and turn on fast sync for the game it works 100% some people me included and just turn off vsync and it uncapped the frame rate but this has worked for alot of people with nvidia cards

And I'm just sitting here enjoying the hell out of it. At least it doesn't run like the Rime port does. *shivers*
Hidden Gems Reviews Just hearing about the Rime port gives me flashbacks to 'nam
Not to mention that games can be updated. Hopefully, the Switch version is updated.
I mean a lot of them probably don't have a switch. When you play it in handheld you don't notice those smaller graphic differences anyways.
Great in-depth, detailed, non-biased review of all console and PC versions. Excellent job!
Crash bandicoot on the PC has an unlocked frame-rate. There are instructions on how to uncap the frame-rate in the steam forums. I play at a stable 144fps and it's butter smooth.
Does it cause weird glitches?
Game doesn't look it's running 144fps though, it's like it's still 60fps even on 144fps
Nobody asked
CRASH WRATH OF CORTEX WAS 60 ON GAMECUBE. why is nsane trilogy 30, such a step back, needs a 60fps option
Kind of... it was 60 on PS2 (an even older/weaker console), at least. The GameCube version was buggier than some beta builds, and suffered from a lot of framerate dips, not to mention some weird polygon sorting issues.
3dmarth oh true, i think wrath of cortex and twinsanity were 60 as well
It wasn't quite 60, there are tons of areas in the GameCube version where the framerate drops to 30. The PS2 version keeps up a solid 60 though.
itsGazaIan true i have the ps2 version
that's cause they actually released a port of the ps2 version xD full of bugs
This game should have been pushed to 60fps. Game looks great but come on man give these games 60 fps they deserve them.
City Fox I believe the 30FPS was an artistic choice. My guess is that they wanted to keep the same framerate as the originals
@@TheNinjaCrash yeah..they want nostalgic players to have the same feel.
@@TheNinjaCrash crash 1 was 60fps on ps1
14.02 Might need to cut that first take out?
noticed then went to comments to see if anyone else did, somehow not many noticed it seems lol
Actually if you disable VSYNC on your GPU you can get unlocked framerates for PC. There are even steam guides explaining this.
These guys are the c.s.i. of video games,...this channel deserves wayyyyy more subs.every time they release a new vid I feel like a kid on Saturday morning all over again.
I would rather have 720p handheld on switch with further optimisation than the 480p. Aim for a Super Mario Odyssey level of detail... which looks awesome still (it's 60FPS even... so this game could have more details if aiming for 30FPS)
Odin's Playground This game isn't optimized at all on a per console basis. They made the game, then just set whatever resolutions and settings without doing any additional optimizations for architectures. There is no reason that it doesn't offer a 60fps mode, at least on the Pro and X. And the X isn't twice as powerful as the Pro, yet it's pushing MORE than twice the pixel count? You're telling me the Pro couldn't have done even 1620p or 1800p? Just blech
Odin's Playground Super Mario Odyssey is also sub 720p in handheld mode but as you said it is locked 60 fps so very impressive for the Switch
It IS aiming for 30fps
To be fair, from what I remember Super Mario Odyssey was 720i in portable
Which is why the Pro & X are a joke. 60fps should be the main target imo
"480p in portable mode, not a really a surprise mind you"
It kind of is though.
It was a rushed port cause they thought it won't run the game
It was surprising to me, cause I never got the impression that it is 480p, and I've been playing in handheld mode almost exclusively.
Yeah, it looked much better than 480p, although that’s still bad and needs to be worked on anyway.
I personally think there could be more optimization done to bring the resolution up to 600 or 650p in handheld mode with some slight visual cuts. 480p is bearable though, but not ideal.
TessellatedGuy At only 30fps I expected 720p in handheld and 1080p docked
I dunno there is slowdown on the Switch version no doubt but I've been playing it in handheld mode and the latency feels fine for me. As you said the fact it's even on the Switch to begin with is an achievement despite the compromises.
I am glad that DF is including Ultrawide support and 60+ fps in their analysis! Thank you very much DF!
I waited for this and Wolfenstein 2 on switch! Can't wait to get them next week!
I love singleplayer games like these.
dani_i89 Bro, at least It's playable on the switch and I'm able to play it wherever I want. Although they sacrificed the game to 480p they foucused on graphics. Also, the whole switch rocking 480p is bs look at Mario Kart Deluxe and other games besides Wolfenstein.
You have to keep in mind these games are being played on a 6 inch screen so the graphical downgrades are FAR less noticeable. I can attest to this as a Switch owner who received my copy of Crash for it today.
RedDragonGamingHD
Have fun brother! Can't wait for my local reseller to stock the games up.
dani_i89 Lol stop hating just because u know Nintendo switch is doing so well
@dani_i89 - Fail. Try harder. Wolfenstein 2 can dip to low resolutions, yes, but overall it runs at 720p / 30fps in docked mode and it targets that in handheld mode. It uses Dynamic Resolution to maintain a stable performance. What else are you expecting from a graphics intensive game running on a 6" tablet?
The PC version can run at an unlocked framerate with different workarounds.
If you want to call running it in fullscreen mode and disabling v-sync a "workaround", that is. The dumb part is that the devs aren't conveying that possibility at all.
I so f*cking love this game! I play it on PC and I'm currently at 88% of the first game (only a few trials and gems left). It doesn't matter how hard it is and how many times I have to try again a time trial to finally get a Platinum Relic on a map, it doesn't stop being fun and I can't really get angry because of it. And as I heard, Crash 2 and Crash 3 is even better, so I can't wait to play them too. My only real problem is the lack of support for arbitrary resolutions and aspect ratios, such as 21:9 (I have a 21:9 monitor). I mean I can play that way using HEX edits, but a lot of things will be empty outside of the 16:9 area. Developers should have future-proofed the game more.
What controller do you use mine isn't being detected ?
Xbox One S controller
Koncz Dávid thanks
Koncz Dávid I've got a PS4 Pro and my friends lending giving me his PS4 copy as he's bought it now on Switch! Can't wait to get it weekend
i'm with you bro,
this game is my childhood,
played the shit out of it when the PC version was released
Finally 60fps.
Only on PC :D
what do you mean finally? its been out on pc for a nearly a week now
Indeed. Too bad I still have to wait it gets dirt cheap.
Published by Activision, don't expect it soon.
GTX 1050 is enough for that.
And on the other hand, we have Dark Souls "Remastered"
Lol its basically an enhanced Switch port. They should have just released it on Switch but they wanted to milk more money so they slapped a remastered label on it lol.
Vaibhav Shah Enhanced Switch port? Isn't it on all platforms though?
To be fair, the devs called the N Sane Trilogy a AAA remaster. They set the bar for good remasters by putting in this much effort. And if Dark Souls got this treatment, it would probably take a huge hit on performance. Doesn't mean companies shouldn't be striving for this in the future.
Yeah, a 30fps platformer with botched collision is so amazing. I guess as long as the graphics are improved it doesn't matter that it plays worse than the original, or still has the same frame rate despite the game design being simple enough for a PS2 to handle.
Francisco Rodrigo I'm talking about this Crash remake. As far as on console goes, at least Dark Souls Remastered is 60fps instead of the original (sub) 30fps, and plays like the original only better because of 60fps. Where this on the other hand is still a 30fps platformer and plays worse than the original because of the botched collision. I would definitely rather buy Dark Souls Remastered than buy this game, although I did buy both.
i swear i just played Crash Bandicoot i never realized it was 480p it was so good and clean images in switch screen in portable mode
I agree, it doesn't look like 480p to me
Awesome John! Thx for this! i will be on the lookout for the Spyro collection!
Nuce video! Small correction, thought, the pc version can easily run at above 60fps by disabling vsync from the nvidia control panel and it feels amazing
Still awesome to have this game on the go!
I bought this game for the Switch over my Xbone. Know why? Because I can play Crash on my lunch break, on the shitter, in bed, in the car while my girl goes to get her nails done.
I don't care about those details, the game is mad fun and I can play it anywhere on Switch. That is the magic of Switch and why I buy games for it. It's fucking awesome.
@Digital Foundry thanks for pointing out that there's no reason why this game shouldn't run at 60fps on the pro and 1X. Hopefully someone from activision watches this and adds a 60fps mode 👍
Watching DF really puts you off buying any games for the Nintendo Switch. I haven't bought any games for the Switch since I became a DF subscriber three months ago.
Hi DF, thanks for another great video. Best gaming analysis on the internets.
I'm playing on Xbox One X and have reported consistent frame-rate drops in the level Hang 'Em High on Crash Warped in the side-scrolling section. Otherwise it seems pretty solid.
You can unlock and go beyond 60fps on PC.
Yes, but only through an exploit, and if you go to the settings menu after the fact it resets back to 60.
turning V-sync on in the menu is hardly an exploit
You can force Vsync off through the driver.
I've heard people have to change settings externally to the game to uncap the framerate.
Mr Glass
Urrrrghhh... This is for manly 60+Hz monitors.
There should be a 1080p 60fps patch for ps4 pro and x1x
Hey John! Great video as always, but why didn't you use the dpad or the facebuttons for your inputlag comparison. This way you could rule out, if it's a deadzone issue or not.
clearly because you don't know how to put a question mark at the end of a question...
Was waiting for this one, thanks DF! :)
Lol, love those old Crash commercials, that's awesome you add it at the end.
man, Crash 2017 looks like a 2015 UE game; they could have reached a smooth 1080p 60 even on the switch with those graphics, it´s just not optimized for anything, the HUGE loading times they used to have for such a small footprint (level) and the pc test proves it all.
AndreaFromTokyo yeah, vicarious visions aren't good devs. The loading times were insaneee before this launch. And the lack of 60fps is so sad. And the fact that they're advertising HDR when it's just a tone mapped SDR that arguably makes the image WORSE...
I believe the 30 FPS is an artistic choice. They wanted to keep with the original framerate, I guess.
TheNinjaCrash It's 60 on pc
I don't think the switch could've handled this game at 1080P 60fps.... at the most it would be 900P 30fps.
AndreaFromTokyo wasn't that a workaround rather than a supported feature?
The console versions really could use a 60fps option, knowing the very good optimization on PC wich is an open platform with various possible configurations, they could easily do it on consoles with their locked enviroment.
Incorrect John, the game isn't capped to 60fps on PC, if you turn off vsync in game it'll go as high as your pc and monitor is capable, I've been playing at 165fps.
Great Video John. Nice thorough test of all platforms.
Digital Foundry for sure is our eagle eye, I remerber many people saying that Crash on the Switch looks the same as the other versions but DF look at the tiniest thing.
Well I still play my Switch version of Crash, this video did not made it any less fun to play
Guess the old plumber boy got his last laugh. The bandicoot landed himself on the Nintendo console
Sseccanya Bricknell hahaha !
But Nintendo’s days are still numbered
With that said... Rare says hi.
Nah, the n64 is Nintendo's last flop, they can't possibly survive past that.
The wii u
Is the control latency worse on Switch in general or is it just this game? I don't mind any of the graphical setbacks but the latency made me skip this one on the Switch
Thom K it's just this game.
I did not notice any if not much latency on pc but when I was helping a younger sibling of mine on the ps4 I noticed noticeable latency I think it is just the console versions tbh with 30fps and a few other things having shit latency on the console made me die a few times xD
God Of Wine It could be. Then again, considering I've been playing the ps4 version since launch. I hardly ever die. Guess I just gotten use to it
yeah i played it on ps4 before it came to pc i did not notice it as much as i do now after playing it on pc and then after playing it on ps4 i was probably experiencing a better version running 4k 60 with less input lag and it has probably been a big difference altogether compared to just the input latency being worse its probably all of that together that i noticed such a huge difference
Thom K yes its laggy AF, ....it's even harder on switch because your jumps are always delayed.
With PC you can break the 60fps lock. If you look around online there's ways around it, I've tested it and it's not too hard.
The game's options won't reflect 144hz or anything above 60, but steam's fps counter and your eyes will certainly tell you different.
Thank you for your continued great work!
Holy heckin heck I love John. Absolutely gobsmacking analysis as always.
This game is a blast on PC. I am so glad I can experience Crash again. It was one of my favorite games when I was a kid on PS1.
I have this on Switch, and it's great. It looks and plays fine
Markus Barstad nope... looks like trash, its laggy trash on the switch.
The Real Truth Bruh.. you're on every comment talking about lag and trash.. stop. Out of all things... the Frame rate on this game is great.
The Real Truth can't you let people enjoy the Nintendo Switch version and it in general lol
Lie and lie.
MadFinnTech Bruh you're triggering skills aren't affecting me
I just find it odd how the consoles are all capped at 30 fps while I currently have a I7 4770K / G1 970 tested with this game at 1440P and I get 60 fps while still having head room of around 85% left for the CPU and around 15/20% left for the 970. You would think the Xbox X would have a 1440P 60 fps option much like the PS Pro version.
It could easily 60 fps on all PS4 and Xbox One consoles.
Yeah none of this adds up. One of the reasons I will always game on PC.
That's what I have been thinking. Hopefully they will patch the game on console for 60 fps. No reason it should be 30 fps. I mean I see the switch staying at 30 but Xbox 1 / PS4 and up no reason at all
That's down to the devs
John Mellinger, it's not about the cpu it's the lazy devs and stupid people who keep supporting 30fps games
Awesome breakdown John! this is why I’m subscribed.
Great video!
In my opinion. I think Crash is good Switch port. I'm glad that they stuck with the one resolution option. Not much of a fan of resolution scaling.
Game plays fine on Switch even in portable.
it should be running in 900p when docked and 600p portable. Lazy port.
It would be nice if it ran at 900p, but maybe due to the engine, 900p wasn't possible without sacrificing more effects.
I think the engine is to blame.
I can even see the base ps4/Xbox one running at 60fps.
no, it's absolute. It runs at 1080p on X1. Switch should run at least in 900p. We have confirmation that activision barely bothered with this port.
@@SamuelKnytt The switch only changes gpu clock in portable mode, not cpu. And I don't get what you're even trying to say.
@@SamuelKnytt OMFG X1 = XBOX ONE, and even if I was talking about a random device using the tegra X1, the switch should run BETTER.
All consoles and PC are awesome. Pick 1 or 2 or even all of them, and enjoy the games!
Nope, games are more enjoyable on better hardware = fact.
except something being "enjoyable" is entirely subjective and cant be a fact lmao
MadFinnTech I'd have to agree, which is why I play all multiplats on PC. However, it does not mean games cannot be enjoyable on console. I'm currently playing God of War on PS4, would playing it at 60 fps be more ideal? Sure, but the game is so fun and immersive I can set aside the 30 fps and just enjoy the game. All of these platforms have benefits.
Dad_Shoes Sucks that your having these issues. But it sounds like your PC is a laptop. Maybe it's a common problem your model has and there's a solution for it online? Bios update? Drivers?
uranus i'm staying away from the switch version... looks like trash, quality over portability any day.
I can respect the portability of the Switch version but man, this game desperately needs to be played at 60fps or higher.
Turtlebird Why? The originals are considered some of the best platformers of that generation and they ran at 30.
It was 1996...
TheNinjaCrash The difference 60fps makes over 30 in platformers can't be understated. The fluidity and responsiveness is honestly game changing. It's 2018, not 1998... 60 can and should be the standard for platformers.
Turtlebird Oh no, trust me I know the importance of 60FPS. I've gone on record saying fighting games and competitive shooters are unplayable without a ROCK SOLID 60FPS. And games that requires precision are 100% better with 60FPS as well.
But, for some games a solid 30 is "fine" Not optimal, but adequate. Especially if the game is being sold as a visual spectacle rather than a technical achievement. If you HAVE to choose visual spectacle vs 60FPS(because consoles), some games the dip is acceptable.
The fact that I, and plenty other people played and beat these games back in the day at 30FPS, means it's not so bad in this case.
It's playable of course, I'm not saying it isn't. But this is definitely a game that, in my opinion anyway, really deserves to be played at 60fps or higher. Crash is the exact type of 3D platformer that feels significantly better with the reduced latency and increased fluidity. (Don't forget the physics in the N Sane Trilogy are also a little more loose than the originals) Full disclosure that I haven't actually picked this up on Steam yet, but there's tons of testimonials I've read from owners of both PS4 and PC versions who are saying the difference is night and day.
Hopefully I'm not sounding like a snob, lol. My whole point was that for this particular game, I'll take the higher fluidity and better response time over portability.
Finally ! I've been waiting for this forever
The lack of fur shading actually makes Crash's model look better and more faithful to the original. And the lighting on the Switch version seems more realistic compared to other consoles
The fact you can play Crash everywhere on Switch, make it the best version.
I have it on switch and ps4
The game should have had a performance and resolution mode like some games on PS4 Pro and Xbox One X do.
Loved the “it’s a jaaaaaag” reference
Great review, usefull info summed up nicely and good to follow. Will be looking for more digitalfoundry content in the future :)
I've been looking forward to this comparison from DF, cause I knew I was missing something from my initial impressions of Switch performance. Despite now being aware of the downgrades, I'm still enjoying it more on my Switch than PS4. It just feels so right on the go.
Two things to note about pc.
One there is a mod that enables ultrawide resolutions.
Two you can uncap fps.
Bet Sony fanboys are massively butthurt that Crash 1-3 can be played at superior quality on Xbox One X and PC.
Sony fans had the game a year before anyone else, Xbox and PC fans get higher quality versions of the game, and Switch owners can take it on the go. Everyone's a winner!
Sony never owned this ip but whatever.
I just recall them getting super gassed up and obnoxious about it being exclusive when it was first revealed for PS4, bet they're super salty at Sony for not money hatting it as a permanent exclusive.
Zen Not really. No point in trying to make an IP they don't own an exclusive it is just a waste of money (anyone who thinks otherwise is too deep in stupid fanboyism) when they could just make new games with that money instead. Plus Crash has been multiplatform for generations now it is just that non-Naughty Dog Crash games suck so much that people are not aware of their existence.
That's why the comments are so calm. They do not have arguments. PS4pro have nice exclusives 2/3 but the hardware is a joke
I REALLY hope the game will run on 60fps on the xbox series x, it should be possible.
Please make it happen!!
Only on PC
I enjoyed the collection first on PS4 and now on PC. Great experience overall and a example how a remaster should be made. Stay exited for Spyro too later this year.
Can't wait to get in on PC!
I'll get it for both PC and switch.
It could run at 60 on base consoles too, this deserves outrage, when 60 FPS is so easy to reach on PC (where different hardware can be difficult to optimisme for) there is no excuse they couldn't do it on consoles
Also it's a shame it doesn't go above 60 on PC, when it's so easy to run its nice to get use out of your high framerate monitors
Indeed. That's why I boycott this game and skipped it on PS4. There was no technical reason it was capped at 30 fps. I'll get this for PC eventually, when it's dirt cheap, like maximum 5 EUR.
Didn't read too much into detail but on Reddit many have unlocked the FPS by tabbing out of the game or something along those lines.
If they can get it to run on switch at 30fps, they can do 60fps on even the base consoles. Havent most of the games ported from PS4 and XOne to Switch been 60fps titles like Doom and Wolfienstien, Snake Pass was 30fps but I cant think of other games.
i can just turn off vsync and it is uncapped frame rate get about 90+fps at 4k cant really remember xD
God Of Wine okay that's good to know was worried there for a second, what is your gpu btw?
I honestly prefer these types of downgrades than what we got for Wolf 2. If I cared about graphics I'd get it on PC cause 60fps > everything but Im gonna pick this up on Switch to be my train game.
SaucyDancer I agree. Wolf on Switch is just to blurry. I would rather have lower graphics.
Agreed. Not that I wasn't impressed by Doom and Wolf 2 Switch, but I'd prefer a few missing shadows and polygons over blurry visuals.
You are an idiot! You prefer lower resolution and frame rate? lmao
SaucyDancer you prefer inferior okay 👌
BlackDildoBoyWithDiabetesBehindACamera Horsecock He said he prefers downgrades over blurry resolution and bad frame rate. Don’t know how you got the opposite.
Honestly I'm really glad I got this for PC yesterday. I'm using a PS3 controller connected via bluetooth using SCPToolkit, the Helix mod which lets you remove the fur effect to look more like classic Crash, it's set to run at 60fps, and there's another mod to replace the in-game Xbox controller buttons with the Playstation ones, and I'm using the 21:9 community patch on my ultrawide monitor. If you don't want frame pacing issues, chocolate lions, and the most authentic experience possible, PC is the only way to go. Running 30fps vs 60fps is night and day when it comes to precise platforming.
I saw it a few days ago and bought it immediately. Holy hell, it is awesome! I get at least 60 FPS all the time at 4K on my GTX 1080. :D
uncap that framerate my dude
It's good that Crash is finally on PC. Now I can have the official PC port rather than using a PS1 emulator.
Gameking 012 Hardly sames games, though.
MadFinnTech But at least it's not illegal like using an emulator.
Gameking 012 Emulation is *not* illegal if you own a copy of the game you are emulating.
Steve Ballmers Baldspot 2.0 But I don't have it, so it's illegal.
Nice remaster, but when are we going to get a Knack Remaster?
Ｋ Ｎ Ａ Ｃ Ｋ Ｉ Ｓ Ｂ Ａ Ｃ Ｋ Ｂ Ａ Ｙ Ｂ Ｅ Ｅ
*I'L L B E B A C K*
mario 2 is game of the year
This is a remake, not a remaster. Knack Remaster will be on PS5.
Well, wikipedia and numerous other sites call it a remaster. Get knacked boy :P
According to the PC Gaming Wiki, there is a way to up the FPS on the PC for a high refresh rate, I haven't tested it though do to me using 60FPS across the board for my kit.
Oh hey it's knuxfan. Didn't thought I would stumble upon you in this video. Were you interested in the switch version?
I might get it at some point, but the PC version is doing me just fine for now. Plus I don't need a third copy of it just yet.
It’s currently up on the eShop for the holiday sales. _REAAAAAL_ tempted to get it.
The most important thing is that you can play the switch one almost anywhere.. that alone makes up for any “negative”.
Looks really good on the switch
It was a rushed port cause they thought it was not going to run it, but it does look good tho
KreekCraft is a Cool kid no need to keep saying that dude
Tony Jenn yeah we get it.
Kimathi Kevin more like trash than anything... I'd rather play it on my vita via-remote play at home
KreekCraft is a Cool kid boo hoo
I thought they were using TAA in handheld mode on switch, looks so much better than 480p
SBM nope
SBM IKR?
Please correct this video, you CAN go over 60fps on PC, it's all over the Steam forums and it's obvious you didn't test it before parroting this misinformation. If running a GSync display, all it takes is running at full screen with Vsync turned off to get uncapped framerates. With a 1080Ti I get a solid 144fps at 1440p.
Also ultra wide support is available with a small fix like from the guys at WAF.
Indeed. They should do a correction video like they do on every single time they fuck up something on consoles.
CabinDoor What are you on about, how is it gimped? And why insult me? Get a life.
You can go over 60fps in the PC version, just a matter of messing with a few settings in your video control panel dealing with vsync
Hi John, When are we going to get our next DF Retro? Best show on the channel
Digital foundry is love!
I love my Switch. Yeah less detail but still awesome and handheld.
PC is not a platform made for gaming, yet it excels at it and even surpasses consoles - which btw were made for gaming. Let that sink in.
been so since the 90s
lol PC is a platform made for gaming, hence such a thing as gaming desktops and gaming laptops and dedicated gpus. Without a dedicated gpu a PC can't even run this game
Consoles have always been inferior. They exist for affordability and convenience.(also, portability in the Switch's case.)
Dickyboy 23 No? Because Windows was made for doing work, primarily. Gaming became a thing because... Idk. But since work is designed to be its main function and gaming just a side-function it still does better than consoles at it. Consoles' sole purpose is to play games, but yet cannot beat the PC. What more do I have to say?

But since work is designed to be its main function and gaming just a side-function it still does better than consoles at it. Consoles' sole purpose is to play games, but yet cannot beat the PC. True, the fact that PCs are sold for gaming is a thing, but I'm also talking about the OS. The OS wasn't built around gaming but eventually became the most popular gaming OS as far as PCs are concerned. But I'd argue that there are more things you can do that are gaming-related on PC than on console. There are more games on PC, PCs can perform much better than consoles and look better assuming you have good hardware and the price of the PC is up to you, so it becomes more affordable, which is a point neglected by console peasants. I'd prefer PC gaming over every other form of gaming, unless special cases occur.
Awesome analysis! I think I’ll be getting the switch version, graphics can’t beat the portability.
i hope you did because it's worth it!
you guys should do more input lag comparison between switch and other consoles on multiplatform games, I feel like the switch has some native input lag that I don't like at all!
Am gonna pick up the Switch version, I know it's 720p docked and 480p Portable mode but I don't mind. The input delay is very small (but I hope they will fix it with a patch in a future update) and I know it has some framerate drops but they are so small and aren't frequent enough for me to not buy this version.
Some people just want to pay more and get less, weird.
XtraKade Gaming Then just do it. Why comment this? I’m tired of seeing comment sections with comments like this and then seeing sales of games reaching 1/10 of Xbox and Playstation sales.
MadFinnTech How am I getting less? It's the same game.
The Switch Version is the Nostalgia Version.
Given I play in handheld the most, I won't notice those small differences it looks amazing.
Sure you would. Stop lying to yourself.
@@nickmotsarsky4382 just because you refuse to play something that isn't 200fps for at 8k resolution does mean everyone else does asshole
Those reflections in that oily substance are essential for me as, they were some of my favorite levels on ps1.
Nice, all versions seems good, im getting the switch one bc im not much at home these days
Wow this was the best comparison by far! I must say that after playing this on the PS4 I can’t go back to the Switch. Even though the Switch is portable I rather play it via remote play on my Vita. Even the Vita via remote play looks better.
Detail doesn’t matter to me I’m just glad I can play crash on my switch
Switch is a portable console that using mobile proccessor and gpu so don't expect too much in terms of graphics
You actually can go over 60fps on PC if your monitor supports it. Vsync can override the game settings, though you might have to force it in your GPU control panel.
As for the 30fps cap on X/Pro I feel like they kept it because of the online time trial leaderboards to not give an advantage to the players on the new consoles (input lag difference between 30/60 fps and such).
thanks lads
