      I've been a crash bandicoot gamer for 27 years and they're still awesome, I do have little bit of thoughts about tawna's removal in the later games in the past, as it turns out, Coco Bandicoot (crash's little sister) is not tawna's replacement, sony and naughty dog had no problem with tawna at all due to her design being sexialized in a family friendly game but the game itself is for kids and adults, they wanted coco and tawna in the game but sadly universal interactive forced them remove tawna and keep coco so that's why tawna never returned in the later games in the past.

      @Jordy Aguilar RE4 still kept the atmosphere and sound design that made the older games creepy, along with having a defenseless character that you need to worry about in addition to your own character, which’s why it still can feel tense and even scary at times despite being more action-oriented. In fact I’d say it’s as much as a horror game as RE3 and Code Veronica were, which were also more action-oriented despite still keeping the mechanics of older RE games.
      Whereas in RE5, you’re in brightly lit environments for most of the game and have a partner to accompany you the entire adventure, which removes an tension or atmosphere the game can hope to have.

    As a die-hard Crash fan since the 90s, I can honestly say that this is one of the best video game documentaries I've ever seen. Kudos sir.
    Although I do have a soft spot for Twinsanity, I don't want to see it remade, unlike a lot of other fans. Nearly half of the intended content for Twinsanity was cut from the final release, and most of it has been lost forever. I also don't feel like it's the right direction for the franchise. Sure I enjoyed the comedy of Twinsanity, but I always preferred the tight gameplay of the earlier games.
    I would much rather see a new Crash game, hopefully one that's even better than the ones I played as a kid. I don't want Crash to just live off nostalgia. He needed the N.Sane trilogy to put him back in the spotlight, and let's face it, we've always wanted CTR online, but no more remakes are necessary for the series. Crash needs a brand new success.

      I do agree, for the same reasons you stated, and also one other that I have.
      Crash Twinsanity is a very important game, and I think many big gaming-related corporations should learn from it. It shows what happens when you don’t allow devs enough time to complete their game. Just looking at the art in the game makes me wonder just how the game could’ve been if the devs were given another year or two.
      What we ended up getting was the polished alpha version; the music was nice, had some great writing (that even joked about how much time they had and TT’s situation at he time), and had some memorable moments. I personally can’t play it anymore, though.

    • @commentarysheep
      @commentarysheep 5 лет назад +13

      What about both? If you mix the tight control scheme of the original trilogy with Twinsanity's open world environments and its slapstick comedy, you could have a very fun Crash game as a result. If a Twinsanity remake would ever happen, they should go for the original control scheme of the PS1 trilogy, while adding back the cut content, fixing the notorious framedrop and other bugs, providing 60 FPS with it and of course, high resolution models and textures. Combining the best of the two worlds would ultimately mean the future of Crash, for me at least.

      Twinsanity was surely one of the best entries in the series and even though i would love to have a version where i can choose which levels to play and relieve the great music and comedy aswell as all the fresh gameplay mechanics, i must agree that i want a brand new game.
      However i fear that just like Wrath of Cortex playing it safe the same could happen to a new entry depending on how much freedom Activision gives to the developers, but maybe we get lucky and get a game akin to Evolution

    I can remember getting my first game system: The Playstation One, as a child. A woman at our church gave it to me, along with several games. The first one I tried was Spyro 3, and I loved it, so I tried the other games as well. After much enjoying the Spyro games, a box with a certain orange bandicoot on it caught my eye. I immediately inserted the disc into the PS1 and tried it out. From that moment forward, Crash and Spyro have been my favorite games EVER. I still play them and their remakes to this day.

    Really like these rather comprehensive series retrospectives you make, especially like that you cover both things quality gameplay and design of the game as well as surrounding things such as development and technical aspects. Look forward to seeing other retrospectives for other classic series and games in the future.

    crash was my childhood , specially with Crash 2 , CTR and Bash.
    I remember back in the days I didn't have have a memory card , so i had to finish the game 100% in the same day without shutting down the ps1
    Thank you for the amazing video , I hope your channel grows even bigger. keep up the good work

    tldr: Crash was an amazing character that had ridiculously good games to start with and was gutted by underfunding idiots that were the proper owners of the franchise rather than the guys that made it, killing the franchise off.
    Just like....uh...literally every other mascot platformer except mario. Kinda funny how ALL these mascot platformers had the same problem except Nintendo's

    The Crash Bandicoot games I remember the most are the original trilogy, Crash Team Racing and though I never played it, Crash Bash. I remember playing that Wrath of Cortex game which had really, really, really long load times on the PS2 but I later played it on the original Xbox which not only looked better but had shorter loading times. The other Crash games I didn't really care much for. But the ones that I really did like were the original trilogy so I was glad that Vicarious Visions made the Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy. And I'm also glad that Crash Bandicoot 4 actually feels like the original games even though Toys For Bob developed it. They also developed the Spyro Reignited Trilogy which looked amazing.

    Nitro-Fueled WAS a love letter to us fans. You know, until a couple weeks after launch, Activision (being their regular greedy selves) implemented Micro-Transactions into the game. You know, AFTER people had ALREADY reviewed the game saying it was great. Needless to say, a lot of people changed their minds.

    Awesome video! I never knew there were so many Crash games. Back in the day, around 97-98 when I first got the original PS1, I remember that Crash 2 was my favorite game. I had never played Crash 1 or 3 at that time. Eventually as I grew up I got more out of gaming, but I always remembered Crash as being my favorite game of all time. The only other game that's been an equal favorite for me was the original Mario Bros 3 on NES. For years I kind of wished I could play the game again, but never felt it was worthwhile to invest the money in a gaming system to play it (I no longer had the original PS1). Until a few months ago when I decided to invest in a Nintendo Switch specifically to be able to get Crash N.Sane Trilogy, and I haven't regretted it! It's awesome to be able to experience this game again at the age of 36, along with Crash 1 and 3, which I had never played before. And the graphics are far better than the original PS1 version. I just ordered Crash 4: It's About Time the other day and am excited about getting it any day now. I'll probably get one of the Crash racing games for the switch as well. You're never too old to enjoy some gaming!

    Nice vid. You just made me realise how Warped improved from 2 in terms of transitioning from 3D to 2D perspectives. Also this vid just points out how terrible Universal was to their developers and how they didn't know what they wanted for the series and how clueless Activision was for sleeping on the IP for almost 9 years (excluding mobile games). I feel like Sony should be given some credit for bringing the series back as they were the ones that negotiated with Activision regarding the series. Naughty Dog and Sony being gone is probably what caused Universal to seem so lost with the franchise.
