*If there’s two things I despise about the Crash Bandicoot games, it’s the vehicle levels and the Wrath of Cortex bosses. Now what happens if you take those two things and combine them...?* *ONE OF THE COOLEST BOSSES I’VE EVER SEEN!*
I know Crunch doesn't actually die, but I think this is probably his most gruesome defeat in this gane. Also, cool trivia in the description, I forgot all he did was the lightning stream at really low health
The trivia is kinda wrong though, all his body parts have a health pool of their own and when they run out he will stop using them, OP just didn’t hit that part enough to make him stop using it.
Crunch has 100 hitpoints in total and the life bar doesn't show it, but every body part has a different health pool, having 25 of those hitpoints each. If you shoot a body part 25 times and deplete its life points, it will be "disabled" and Crunch will stop using that attack, preventing you from shooting him there anymore. That's why the trick to this boss is to prioritize shooting Crunch during its _hardest_ attack patterns, to prevent him from using them as soon as possible, otherwise if you leave them last, he will keep spamming those attacks, like he did here
It's strange. I don't know if I have a different version, but whenever I played this on the PS2, possibly because I had gotten good enough to hit the targets dead on, they would always be disabled in this order for me: Face barrage, Chest lightning wave then right hand beam, leaving just his left hand hurl, and yet every video I see show a different order, leaving the beam attack as the only remaining one. Mind you, if your theory is true, it might explain why because the face barrage is an absolutely massive target and when he's charging the left hand hurl, he's shielding himself with his right hand, making for a much smaller target.
@@joshuaweldon5194 Yeah, that game looks extremely hard. I haven't played it myself yet because I don't have the money right now, but from what I've seen and heard, it's pretty difficult.
Real talk, if activision are going to consider anything as a followup project, it should be a REMAKE of wrath of cortex. Doesn’t necessarily have to be anything overly drastic...it’s just, not only does twoc stand as a rightful occurring sequel in the timeline canon, but also the elementals and intro to a core protagonist such as crunch are too essential to overlook. Just as it is a plain mistake to overlook n gins hideous face in this. Anyway awesome boss.
It took me a while to work out why there was an inset of a death of level 1 during the banter with Lo-Lo and Crunch, then I realised... "time to earn your wings, kid!"
He's only showing you where to hit him. Plus, if you look real closely, you can see the Elemental Mask showing you what attack Crunch is going to do next
@@Ray_Shabaz That's right,Aku-Aku is helping Crash Bandicoot of Showing what part Of Crunch to Shoot at and where Lo-Lo The Air Elemental Is. and besides Aku-Aku is a good witch doctor and He'll always guides Crash and Coco's Adventure of Defeating Dr.Neo Cortex's and The Great Uka-Uka's Evil Schemes.🙂🙂
guys i have problem with this boss so when i enter this level for this boss in loading screen when crash failing the screen become frozen what i do +_+
I remember the first time I played this level and I could not beat it for the life of me especially the 3rd boss level “Crashes To Ashes” until I played more and more and got better and beat both levels. The most likely easy boss level in this game to beat is “Drain Damage”.
Lo-Lo: look the orange boy want to fly Me: Shut your mouth dude you're annoying Me after destroying Crunch and turn him into a destroyed skull: serves you right for pissing me off. I like the short video you put when Crunch said "time to earn your wings kid !": he probably didn't know Crash can turn into an angel everytime he eat the ground
The Aladdin 2019 will Smith looks great
@@jeremymartin3724 Shut your feckin' face.
😂😂😂😂😂
Crash Bandicoot series is known for its amazing OSTs, but this game in particular had some of the best in the whole series
Hi
I love how you had Crash walking in the beginning. He looked like he was ready to throw down.
Hey look! The Orange boy likes to fly!
Time to earn your wings, kid!
*vilan music*
After the boss :
*crash bandicoot 3 remake music*
*If there’s two things I despise about the Crash Bandicoot games, it’s the vehicle levels and the Wrath of Cortex bosses. Now what happens if you take those two things and combine them...?*

@@DolanDuking It’s a “core and shield boss” functionally identical to the n gin I fight from crash 3

Just played this boss, you are 100% correct, thanks man
@@Mainsterr No problem, hope it made the fight easier
@@heroesoftomorrow3488 it definitely did!!
this is just bad level design. guarantee this probably was not planned.
3:40 *press woah to pay respect*
Time to earn your wings kid
This boss was the bane of my existence! Was never able to get beat it.
The hardest boss in the whole Crash series. I never struggled as much on a boss in Crash compared to this one.
I think Crunch Time is harder.
@@louiekazooie3771 Well this was before Crash 4 It's about Time. That game actually has the hardest bosses now lol.
@@joshuaweldon5194 Yeah, that game looks extremely hard. I haven't played it myself yet because I don't have the money right now, but from what I've seen and heard, it's pretty difficult.
@@joshuaweldon5194 The levels are hard, the bosses no XD
@@joshuaweldon5194 nope crash 4 bosses are easy
I love this game so much
Yes i love it too! But it's mediocre for the Crash Comminity. We all hope that gets remade one day.
1st boss level which is “Rumble In the Roks” is my favorite
hey look the orange boy likes to fly! crunch: time to earn your wings kid 😆
if you last long enough and recognize the pattern it becomes easier to beat him in the end😉
Haven't played this in so long, forgot the sweet spots! Thanks for the help!
I spent soooo much time on this boss. But it was so fun!
The elemental masks are so dangerous that even aku aku has to intervene everytime crunch strikes.
Now I get it Aku Aku is showing Crash where to shoot at Crunch where Lo-Lo is oh and This is Jeremy tony's friend thanks Carl

And yet everyone constantly prides It's About Time as the superior game and deem TWoC not just inferior, but SHITTY...and I hate it.
I could never progress further in the game because the game always froze in the loading. The disc is in pretty bad shape so that might be the cause
Or it’s a pirated like it happens when you try to fight the 4th boss
It took me a while to work out why there was an inset of a death of level 1 during the banter with Lo-Lo and Crunch, then I realised... "time to earn your wings, kid!"
Strange, controlling air means you can control weather, too? I always wondered that when I was kicking this guy's ass.
Grayson Crockett air generates friction and friction can create an electric charge.
Eh, good point, I couldn't figure that out so easily, even as a science nut. Kudos for the unintentional education.
OH,that explains it! I here I thought I wasn't going to see anything air related in this battle.
@@legoobi-wankenobi3080 Also, cold and warm air fronts create tornadoes.
I've never understood why aku aku goes near to crunch, I considered him a traitor
I thought he was helping crunch too and couldn't beat the boss because I had no idea where to shoot lol

Close call, huh?
Eh, if he lost, it wouldn't be a big whoop. He already had 99 tries left.

What's that stuff Crunch is floating over at 0:29?
Rocks and some ruins
Nose por que pero pienso que le hubiera quedado mejor el rema del segundo jefe
Hall of the Mountain King
I remember this boss being so hard when I was a kid 😭
how do you shoot that fast ?
I got this game
*_I have the PlayStation 2 version of this game too._*
*_And it is my favorite-game._*
Everytime I enter this level it freezes at the loading screen
Me too
You probably need to get a new Wrath of Cortex disc.
@@J-dogg-2007 I have 2 and both have the same problem
Your laser could be dirty
@@J-dogg-2007 probably will check
Now this was definitely hard
Before back then when I reaches this level it always Stuck I buy crash wrath of cortex 5 times on the ps2 and still stuck
Because apparently we don’t have the original version, we have pirated discs and I hate that
I think the game is made so that pirated versions always freeze on the 4th boss
@@J-dogg-2007 thx for that Captain Obvious
Same

He lookin' Jojo spirit.
Hi there, I was just wondering how do you do that spin maneuver, because I tried and nothing seems to trigger it
L2 R2
I If Playing Is Often Error.
Do you mean the game freezing on the loading screen every time you enter this boss?
Skip!
Hey Carl why is Aku Aku Helping crunch Aku Aku is a Good mask not evil like his brother Uka Uka
He's not, he's just showing Crash where you are supposed to shoot
I hate the sound of the gun which makes it a shame because I like the boss
This boss here didnt seem so scary didnt it?
Lo-Lo: look the orange boy want to fly
Me: Shut your mouth dude you're annoying
Me after destroying Crunch and turn him into a destroyed skull: serves you right for pissing me off.
I like the short video you put when Crunch said "time to earn your wings kid !": he probably didn't know Crash can turn into an angel everytime he eat the ground
I. Hate. This. Boss. Battle.
But. Love. The. Music.

The best boss off crash the warth of cortex
Ma game bug
Is it that bug where the game freezes in the loading screen?
