We need another Crash game like Twinsanity, it was great despite being rushed, and the soundtrack is amazing

Actually my favorite ps2 game. As a kid I didn't have a memory card but I never cared and just continued playing it up until the haunted mansion-looking place because my disk would always freeze there. Now I can't even emulate it without the map de-loading in the ice level for some reason... man
>>729920001You could 100% (not just beat) the entire game in like two hours.
>>729917387Being fair it's not actually a lie, it's just that because they didn't have time to find a non-nitro solution that didn't seem arbitrary for general puzzle gimmicks.Twinsanity got fucked over way harder by the publisher.
As a kid I was unironically hard into the Crash Bandicoot games. I got Crash 1 & 2 with my PS1 for Christmas 1997 and played them religiously. When I got Crash 3 I played it even more, same with CTR and Crash Bash. It was my main vidya franchise until I discovered Pokemon (which was about 1.5 years later, but back then such things felt longer). I even would record the game music from my TV to listen to later on my walkman and had all the toys/action figures. I would draw Crash Bandicoot stuff in my notebooks at school.Played Crash 4 recently and was liking it until it forced you to play as the hook hand lesbian with the blue hair and I quit.
>>729920459Same, but I stopped when Crash of the Titans released
>>729920780I stopped at Wrath of Cortex. I was too hard into DBZ by that point and was also gonna get a gamecube and became lost in SSB Melee
>>729917312Is there a common opinion on the ranking of the original 3 games? I didn't think the first game was all that great, but I've been enjoying Crash 2 quite a bit.
>>729921331Most platform purists agree that 2>1>3, but nostalgiafags normally rank them 3>2>1
>>729921331Most people seem to think 2 is the best overall because 1 hadn't perfected the controls yet and 3 was too gimmicky
>>729921646Also in 3, the entire game (except for some bonus rounds and I believe a couple of gems?) was clearly made without taking into account powers, so an already easy game becomes absurdly trivial
>>729921331>>7299215162 would have been the best if it wasn't for the horrible enemy design and the abysmal final boss
>>7299213312 > 3 > 1
>>729918757Coco's CocosCoco Bandiboobs
>>7299213313 genuinely just sucks, honestly. The vehicle stages are ass and all of the upgrades are shit that don't add anything except having to use them for one specific segment.
>vehicles sections are consideeed to be the low point of CB3>quadruple down on it in WrathThank you Travelers tales, very cool!
Crash 1, 2, and 3 hold up a lot better than Spyro 1, 2, and 3
>>729922595Spyro 1 is a flawless masterpiece
>>729922691I agreeToo bad 2 and 3 are crap

>>7299215162 felt the strangest to me, but I liked the secrets. For me it's 1 > 3 > 2, but all three are awesome games.

>>729924492>'ka 'ka 's fri'>wheezes
>>729923838
>>729920459Crash 4 is good actually, probably the best, not even ragebaiting
>>729924746Crash 4 is good but not amazing and I want TfB to make Crash 5 and iteratively improve over Crash 4 and learn from the mistakes they made.
>>729921331My ranking is 1>3>2, I won't ever forgive the Japanese for getting filtered with the original
>>729924746Crash 4 is fine for like maybe 60 or 70% of the way through, but once it starts to drag it just becomes really fucking obnoxious to even finish. They also focused way too heavily on the "collectathon" aspect of it and not the actual platforming, so collecting shit isn't fun, and the gameplay suffers because of all of the mask gimmicks.
>>729924804>Crash 5 and iteratively improve over Crash 4 and learn from the mistakes they made.That would have been the good ending, honestly, TfB didn't even fucked io that bad, compared to every dev studio that took Crash acmfter ND. All the complaints everyone has are either subjective (artstyle and gay shit) or not even part of the core gameplay loop (hidden boxes, forced replayability, long levels, insane requirements for 106%).A Crash 5 from them had huge potential, it's really sad tje franchise got canned again while it pulled more numbers than Sonic.
>>729924992>do the second rewind tape>its tedious obnoxious and brokenI wish it was that far in.the masks seemed fun for as far as I got though.
>>729924992>the gameplay suffers because of all of the mask gimmicks.I liked the masks, imo it was a way better implementation of power ups, the abilities in Crash 3 broke the game completely because ND didn't incorporated the new moveset into the platforming aside from some bonus stages.And all the masks granted you abilities that were in hand with core platforming aspects, we didn't get a fucking bazooka for example.
>>729924992>>729924804there's a fanmade patch to make it less unbearable, this is how i'll play crash 4 for the first time
Wrath of Cortex should've had Crunch as the final boss with all of the masks and the other bosses with the masks to "train" them for Crunch.>Tiny=Ro-Ko>N.Tropy = Wa-Wa>Dingodile = Py-Ro>N.Gin = Lo-Lo>>729925123>Boxes>Not part of core gameplayAre you really playing Crash if you don't get gems?
>>7299213313≈2>1, generally.It depends on if you want to pretend the ride stages that were standard in the series are a big deal or not, generally the only really suck for relics since there is very little flexibility in relic runs.
>never played the originals so I think I wont notice the complaints people had with the remakes platforming>notice how shitty the platforming isOnly just got to Ripper Roo in 1 and I think maybe I ought to get a controller
>>729925469og crash 1 is unbearable cuz of poor QoLthe save system is retarded and unfair (use save states) and the progression is extremely confusinghonestly the trilogy improved 1 in almost everything
>>729925469Crash games are best played on d-pad
>>729924992I wish the masks were available the whole time, maybe on L1+dpad to choose instead of being discrete "use the mask correctly retard" sections in certain levels
>>729925592Should've been the evolution for the powerups from 3, yeah.
>>729925548>first scene in 3 is him being too slow to enter his house>most of his deaths are goofy dumb shit>first scene ever is him throwing himself to the sea without thinking>first scene in 2 his sister basically calls him useless and sends him to get a new battery, then proceeds to get manipulated by everyone for the rest of the game
>>729925548>picrelblame Twinsanity.
>>729919061>zoomer doesnt know about the highly unstable/highly explosive material called Nitroglycerin
>>729925548Crash is both of these
>>729923838kekbut what if he's niggerwood?>>729922597>>729918757Why is she so smokin hot?
>>729917312What does he really says when he says the "bhurrzugah" sound?
>>729922141nah fuck you kys. the upgrades are the best especially the super twister
>>729926751oogabooga
>>729925548I never understood the whole "Crash was actually cool" take a lot of fans seem to have, they are all probably Sonic fans, Crash has never been edgy, >>729925715pretty much says how dumb and funny he was
>>729927689his entire origin is that he's a failed raised intelligence animal, I hope bikie crash never returns.
>>729925548We’ll never get 90’s Crash back.
>>729922423and you still die in 1 hit in a armored sub or mech
>>729918757That's a mighty fine coke
>>729922595Spyro 1 is better than any Crash game, but Spyro 2 and 3 are worse than the worst Crash game.
>>729927760>Original Tawna just vanishes off the face of the earth and people take the Japanese manga where she left him for Pinstripe as gospel for some fucking reason>Crash 4 basically reaffirms this to some degree with Coco just saying that they lost contact with Tawna entirely>Make her a girlboss dyke with the stupid fucking Captain Marvel hair that literally no actual woman has and only Californians obsess over it>Have her get with an in-universe Nathan Drake knockoff>Series dies again almost immediately afterA series like Crash shouldn't be hard to get right, so I don't know how so many companies have completely botched it.
>>729925548If you can't accept the him on the left, you don't deserve the him on the right.
>>729926751I always heard him say 'Pumanigga! Ba-dum-dum!'
>>729925387>Wrath of Cortex should've had Crunch as the final boss with all of the masksGod that would have been so cool. Instead we get Crunch jumping on buttons instead. The previous boss was him turning into a fucking tornado, l but the no the final boss is buttons
>>729928004Its hard to get right because its a product of its time. The conditions for its conception and fan reception aren’t there anymore, for example nobody has managed to make a good Alien/Predator/Terminator movie since the 80s and its no coincidence why. People have changed since then and so has the method of which they make these movies. One day we’ll have people in wheelchairs in 2080 asking why the current iteration of Fortnite is “soulless” to when they were kids in the 2010s.
>>729922691Flawless? Nah the levwls are good but the bosses are shit
>>729917312whew, banjo kazooie from wish..
>>729931096Toasty: meant to be a joke because its 3 sheep pretending to be some scarecrow monster. Dr. Shemp: Probably the only moderately hard boss in the game but he also acts like a gigantic moron. Blowhard: A nothing boss you flame it like three times and it dies. Metalhead: Puzzle boss who isnt really difficult at all. Jacques: Same as Blowhard cant even remember if it does anything offensively. Gnasty Gnorc: just runs away before getting cornered and dying in 1 hit. Yeah its funny almost all the bosses are these whimsical but functionally useless creatures.
Sex with AU Tawna!
>>729928004I fucking love bimbo Tawna.
>>729922597Why does Aku Aku look like a brolic black dude
>>729922691it just needs the flutter from the sequels, 1 has a lot of obnoxiously precise ledges to glide to.add the flutter and the game is perfect, i never played any spyro before and i effortlessly 100%d it because i was having fun. 2 and 3 bored me, collecting gems is a chore in those games and doesn't feel as good
>>7299249924 feels really good to play once you get what the controls let you do.it's also by far the most challenging crash game even discounting 100%. everyone complains about it but i never felt the need to complete it. i just did all the colored gems and the tapes and that was enough of a "completion" for me.i really liked the idea of the wumpa gem, it makes opening a lot of boxes still rewarding without being an all or nothing.i really hated how the side character levels forced you back on the main level, that was fucking retarded, at least the nverted levels are an extra mode, if you don't care about specific costumes then you can ignore themthe game was buttfucked hard by feeling the need to justify being full price because activision is ran by retards
>>729918757Hey anon, i know it was probably not your intention but this AI slop makes me sick. There are plenty of amazing artworks of Cocothat make smile on my face. Shame that AI is pushing in to fandomes so hard. Grim times.
>>729918757Hey anon, thanks for sharing the image. I'm glad that you and I are both mentally well-adjusted individuals and don't sperg out of things that don't matter. Shame that the same can't be said for everyone in the thread. Grim times.
>>729927915>Spyro 1Nope
>>729918757___ _____ ____ ___ _____ _____ ___.
>>729917312This the only crash that I actually love.And I like the two other crashes the one where he rides mutants don't remember the name sorry :3
>>729925548crash was quite literally inspired by looney tunes
>>729917346Fpbp.I just had an idea I'm gonna get an apu apu mask and start fapu fapu'ing to coco's porn collection (after i make a collection of her)
>>7299213312 is definitely at the top then 3 or 1.1 had gimmick stages too but people tend it ignore it or act like it didn't exist. 3 definitely had more than necessary, but it's more replayable than 1 overall, and still a genuine challenge to 100%.I would honestly say just play 2 for classic crash and then move on. If you want more variety then play 3.More hardcore, play 1.
>>729935620There is no way Aku Aku is not black.
>>729934492As any straight man should.
>>729938753Those are probably the only Crash games you played then
