Sounds like a small feature, until you remember that in the original game you could only save after completing a Bonus Round or collecting a Gem or a Key. Not only could those tasks be extremely difficult, but each one became inaccessible in a level after completing it for the first time!

** You can now save on the map screen like in ''2'' and ''3'', and the game features autosave. Sounds like a small feature, until you remember that in the original game game, you could only save after completing a Bonus Round or collecting a Gem or a Key. Not only could those tasks be extremely difficult, but each one became inaccessible in a level after completing it for the first time!

** Averted here. In the original games, Ripper Roo's laugh was taken from the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPiaB7z4ehY Hyena]] in ''Disney/LadyAndTheTramp'', and Cortex's lab assistants were basically voiceless apart from letting out a higher-pitched version of the [[StockScream Howie scream]] when defeated. Now Ripper Roo is voiced entirely by Creator/JessHarnell, and the lab assistants have additional screams and grunts provided by Creator/DwightSchultz and Creator/MauriceLaMarche.

** N. Gin's personality here is similar to his personality mid-{{flanderization}}, around the time of ''Nitro Kart''. In the original games, he was rather inexpressive and robotic, and the later games eventually made him completely insane with a SplitPersonality and a tendency for SuddenlyShouting Here, he's more expressive than the original games, but he's definitely not as insane as he is in the later games.

* AchievementMockery: Various achievements in the games are earned either by Crash getting himself killed in specific ways or doing something that doesn't help him. For example, using his spin attack on an extra life, or missing enough boxes so that Crash gets knocked out at the results screen.

* ViolationOfCommonSense: One of the secret warps that are hidden inside levels requires you to jump on top of a pile of Nitro boxes, which normally explode instantly the moment you touch them - with nothing other than a vague loading screen hint telling you that those particular ones are completely harmless.
