Crash Team Racing on PC and Crash Bandicoot 4 on Steam

[Buceto]

Just feel like we should be talking more about that. CTR has been around for 2 years and still didnt come for PC, which contemplates a really big userbase. Last news about the possibility are already pretty old. Also, having Crash 4 being exclusive to battle.net is pretty senseless. Even because i dont want to touch anything that has to do with that garbage called Blizzard.

IIRC the database of GeForce Now games leaked that Crash Team Racing was coming on their service (which assuming, means that the game was meant to come out), but the database might be outdated or inaccurate.

It's one of the games I'd love to have on steam-pc.

[EXTRA OMNES]

Wholeheartedly agree

[iharabr]

It would be a dream to have both of these games on Steam!

I would pick up CTR day one for Steam and eventually grab Crash 4. Sadly, I’m willing to bet that the entry on the Nvidia leak was one of the canceled games on the list.

Why cancel it, though?

Activision took their ball home. I'm not sure about CTR, but I'm pissed Crash 4 is on Battlenet.

I could be wrong, but I seem to recall a few studios were put onto other projects like Call of Duty or Diablo 2 remastered. My speculation is that they just didn’t see CTR on PC as profitable enough and just redirected their efforts to something that would make them more money. I’d love to be wrong though and get CTR on PC.

My money are waiting for Crash 4 on Steam.

CTR does seem extremely profitable though, the players' reception to old, nostlagic games made from scratch is pretty good. Also, the cartoony rece style of CTR is something we don't have on pc anyway, only mario kart compares and its a nintendo exclusive... Anyway i really hope they catch on that anytime and just give it to us. I CRAVE FOR CTR >:(

Maybe they'll see the release of the Steam Deck as a good opportunity to finish the PC port. CTR seems like a good game to take on the go.

I totally agree. Smart companies are porting the games to most platforms and mostly selling the games in different stores.

Even Microsoft and EA are selling games on Steam and have realized how profitable it is.

Not porting Crash Team Racing to the PC means Activision is throwing money away. And I'm not going to install battlenet just for Crash Bandicoot 4.

What's worse is that Activision continues with this arrogant stance, even though it realizes that Crash 4's sales in battle are MUCH LESS than the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane trilogy on Steam.

In this situation, everyone loses. Activision that doesn't make money and we players that are without the games.

A thing i always comment on conversations is: Higher-ups in big companies are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid and i have no idea how they got there. You see companies ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around the simplest things that fans constalty hint them about. I have no idea how they mantain themselves.

This is... Actually pretty decent, wow. Thanks for the recomendation dude, already grabbed the second one and calling my friends to play it.

Man I wish Crash Team Racing comes to PC Steam and gets Racing Wheel compatibility with Trueforce. Also it would've be huge if someone makes a mod that supports VR with head tracking.... That you run inside the track.
