Something you should know Lew, years ago one of the developers for crash bash admitted that in development they did not properly test the platinum relics. The gold relics were properly tested, but the devs ran out of time and the QA team could not beat all platinum relics before release. As such, they are literally unfinished. It is no wonder they are so broken. Good luck on your 200% journey Lew! 😃
Character stats explanation: Dingo is the worst because on the majority of game types he and Rilla are the worst, but Rilla has an advantage in 1 game type, so basically, Dingo is even worse than Rilla. Crate Throwing: Tiny/Kong and Cortex/Brio are almost the same. Because of their height, Tiny and Kong throw the crates a bit further than Brio/Cortext, but not by much. Brio and Cortex are more agile and have smaller hitboxes, but the extra range Tiny and Kong get is significant for speedrunning. Crash/Coco are almost as bad as Dingo/Rilla here, but they can move while they attack, while Dingo and Rilla (and everybody else) can't do that. So they're the worst here. Polar Bears: Tiny/Kong here the best also. 2nd strongest dash, but they recharge a bit faster than Cortex/Brio. Because Cortex/Brio use the full bar for charging, they have the strongest dash of all, but they lack proper recharge. Crash/Coco can dash 2 times in a row like Dingo and Rilla, but the dashes from them are stronger than the ones from Dingo and Rilla. So, Dingo/Rilla, again worst here. Tanks: Tiny/Kong shots are the strongest, can only shoot 1 at a time, but they have a shorter duration than other shots. That's why they're the best here. Dingo/Rilla can have 2 projectiles at the same time, but are only about as strong as the ones from Crash/Coco. So Dingo/Rilla go 2nd here. Also the projectiles last very long, which is bad. Crash/Coco are kinda the same as the scientists, but the shots disappear sooner than the ones from Brio/Cortex and are a little bit stronger. Brio/Cortex are the worst here. Only 1 projectile at a time, lowest damage and highest duration. Pogo: All are the same here, but for Rilla: Due to a developer's oversight, Rilla's jumps are 1 frame faster than everybody elses, but it's not noticable by any margin. For all other game types, the characters are the same. Overall, Tiny and Kong excel better in 3 game types than the others, which is why they're considered the best characters (objectively speaking).
The characters don't make that huge of a difference. I have done it with Crash and Cortex (not 200% but to unlock all stages). Dingodile and Roo are better in the tank stages because they can fire 2 shots and they dissipate quick so you don't need to be defenceless for long.
@@Manic_Panic I dunno about huge, but the difference is certainly there. There're 4 types of characters with different strengths and weaknesses in each type of minigame
Yeah I used to play this a lot with my parents. Sadly... we mostly played Pogo Pandemonium minigames and rarely anything else. Sometimes I got them to play the Medieval Madness ones and rarely Ballistix and Polar Push ones.
The only games where all characters have the same stats are in Ballistix, Crash Dash, and the Medieval Mayhem levels. In the Pogo levels, everyone has the same stats with the exception of Rilla, who has a 1 frame advantage, allowing him to have a shorter jump and faster movement in NTSC.
The beggining of the "You Fail" journey and where he get platinum in the Crash platforming was complicated, here is a living hell, imagine this as a remake with online support, this game is the Mario Party of Sony.
I know Crash Bash is not a good game said by many. But i enjoyed it very much back in the day and would still enjoy it today. I love the vibes this game rubs of on you.
Who cares what the internet says, this game is good fun especially with friends. Internet opinions are always overly negative, sometimes more than the professional game reviewers.
This game is like Mario Party but on steroids with a touch of insanity on top and I love it for that. It wasn't made for everybody but if you have the muscle and a strong patience to withstand it then this one is the right game for you.
Im glad you incorporated the "FAIL COUNTER" btw Lewis. Also, I've decided to play along. Donna do 200% of Crash Bash for the 3RD TIME now. (1st one as Coco and idk when, 2nd one as Rilla Roo) Gonna make same amount of progress as you do, each stream. Rn, im on "17 FAILS" and my character is "TINY TIGER." I recall getting around 6 or 7 fails on Polar Panic Crystal Challenge. Got worst luck there. And 3 fails on N.Ballism Crystal Challenge. The rest where 1 fail on some gem challenges respectively given time out/bad rng do not mix. This is what happens when more or less you know the game inside out LMAO. 🤣
This is the video ive been waiting for! Guarentee he wont get 200% though. I did it with a friend a few years ago during covid when there was nothing better to do and it took about a month of constant play
@Epke1174 yeah the platinum relics take a ridiculous amount of time to get, it's just about grinding the hours and eventually get lucky. We were both broken men by the end
"YOU FAIL" will probably be burned into your head once this is all over... 11:23 WHAT A COMEBACK! 20:47 Bro almost says the C word 22:48 That was bloody close... Koala Kong gets rock blocked 🪨 23:19 Kinda odd that Papu Papu's minions are mini Crashes instead of Tribesmen... The high-pitched woahs when you knock them out are kinda funny though 25:46 "Uuuuughhh... Papu not himself today. Maybe Papu not eating a big breakfast."
I'm having war flashbacks of Caddicarus's 200% Crash Bash playthrough, as well as my own when I finally managed to find and buy the game like, four years ago on Amazon, and play it for the first time. I couldn't complete the first pinball mini-game to progress. That took me about an hour just to attempt. The other few levels were fine, I got the trophies, but the pinball one was hell. Never played the game again. That being said, good luck on the "racing" mini-games with potential lap-skips, Lewis! 😈
So apparently Dingo is the worst in terms of stats because he and Rilla Roo's aren't as good as others overall in minigames where the stats are unique, but apparently in pogo levels Rilla Roo moves one frame faster than everyone else which means despite being the same as Dingo in ever other way, this one feature makes Rilla technically better than Dingodile. And it was purely an oversight from the devs. Nuts, I know.
We need a remake of this game. Mini games a lil more polished, platinum relics balanced, maybe even more difficulty settings for the story. Easy could be 1 win per trophy, normal is 2, hard is 3, N.Sane is also 3, but with a slight randomized disadvantage (less points, slower speed, etc, not as bad as the crystals obviously, but makes it more difficult). Then an online 1v1v1v1, 2v2, maybe even a chaos 4 players vs 4 NPC's. Some new mini games, could even have some lvl up system for the online, customizations, new emotes etc. This game is a goldmine of opportunities.
something i learned quickly on the pogo painter crystal, if i had 20-30 seconds left on the timer and i was far in the lead. id just sit in a corner and hope they wouldnt get enough points EDIT: 150 fails by the end? oh my sweet summer child....
10:06 the fact that he have the lightning ability, but rather than ran away until the timer's up, he decided to charge into Rilla Roo and then proceed to loose the lightning and die afterwards is kinda painful to witness 💀 honestly my advice on playing these minigames that you might be playing the combat minigame too aggressive to the point that most of the fails are your own fault
You also gotta know, Lewis, that the games become easier and easier the more you retry it. The bots in first game with 0L will NOT be the same as 12 consecutive loses.
I decided to join you on this nasty journey and 200% the game also😭 cleared warp room 1 but that was already abysmally cancerous. Can't wait for the rest
If they remastered this game with online vs mode and added tons of characters I would buy the new gen console just for that and be addicted to it for like a year
I've 200%-completed this game like at least *ten* times in Co-op with my dad in a ten years timeframe. In that same amount of time I must have completed this game in the Single Player mode barely once or twice. The point is that, YES, this game is such a living hell to complete in Single Player. The AI is designed to destroy any of your hopes (specially the Relics) lmao. But, anyway, I know Lewis is capable of completing this. He's already used to having his sanity broken in previous Crash games 🗿
My favorite thing about Crash Bash as a kid was the sound design. That atmospheric "YOU FAIL" was a vibe
Something you should know Lew, years ago one of the developers for crash bash admitted that in development they did not properly test the platinum relics.

Wow amazing played this game a lot but didn't know the one frame thing
Choosing dingodile for a 200% bash run Lewis you are a brave soul, good luck!

Dingodile and Roo are better in the tank stages because they can fire 2 shots and they dissipate quick so you don't need to be defenceless for long.
@@Manic_PanicCortex I think is the best character overrall, especially in crate levels he's a beast
@@Manic_Panic
I dunno about huge, but the difference is certainly there. There're 4 types of characters with different strengths and weaknesses in each type of minigame
@@viniciusyugulis7278no its tiny or kolara Kong
@@cristiano4164 nah
Heck yeah. Favorite game as a kid. First game I have memory of ever seeing - sat on my dad‘s lap while he played in early 2000’s
Yeah I used to play this a lot with my parents. Sadly... we mostly played Pogo Pandemonium minigames and rarely anything else.
Sometimes I got them to play the Medieval Madness ones and rarely Ballistix and Polar Push ones.
21:24 Brio throwing metal crate to Dingodile was personal! 😆
Hell yeah, wasn't expecting the streams to translate this well into videos
Yeah it's a good highlight.
The only games where all characters have the same stats are in Ballistix, Crash Dash, and the Medieval Mayhem levels. In the Pogo levels, everyone has the same stats with the exception of Rilla, who has a 1 frame advantage, allowing him to have a shorter jump and faster movement in NTSC.

Bro thinks 150 FAILs would be enough...at least triple that :D Excellent video! Also damn, Papu and his minions got hands.
bro's quick at editing that 4 hour stream
I don't understand Dingodile's laugh.
Ya, why does he sound like Cortex?
I know Crash Bash is not a good game said by many. But i enjoyed it very much back in the day and would still enjoy it today. I love the vibes this game rubs of on you.

Were the relics most difficult?

I love that you're doing this series!!!
Ah yes I've never been so excited for a playthrough before
"YOU FAIL" will probably be burned into your head once this is all over...
11:23 WHAT A COMEBACK!

Flame's gone 2.0
ooof RIP Papu
The soundtrack is absolute bangers
I'll be attempting this nightmare someday.
Wishing you all the best on this journey into insanity, Lewis.

I always go for the purple boxes on the pogo levels even if I have like 2 squares just to take them off the board for Rilla Roo and friends.
If they add this to PS Classics Catalog you could use the rewind feature to fix mistakes or at least I would.
That's cheating
@ZombieaidZ I don't care. That's why I said at least I would.
So apparently Dingo is the worst in terms of stats because he and Rilla Roo's aren't as good as others overall in minigames where the stats are unique, but apparently in pogo levels Rilla Roo moves one frame faster than everyone else which means despite being the same as Dingo in ever other way, this one feature makes Rilla technically better than Dingodile.

uploaded 7 hours ago
my clock: 7am
me: i should have waited 2 minutes before midnight when Lewis uploads.
I keep expecting the announcer guy to say “Dingodile Wins. Flawless Victory.”

don'T do this to yourself. Just kidding, do it. It will be a pleasure to watch.
I used to love Dingodile's arm dance/celebration when he wins
Fun fact: you can use the missiles to destroy the mushrooms in the Pogo crystal challenge.
random useless fact i remember: Crash ball was my first level i played on this game when i got this as a kid, it was miserable.
Time to complete Crash Bash once and for all time.
I got everything from Crash Bash except for the Platinum Relics. I tried to earn them in 3 wins, But I keep on Failing. But I’ll keep trying.
10:06 the fact that he have the lightning ability, but rather than ran away until the timer's up, he decided to charge into Rilla Roo and then proceed to loose the lightning and die afterwards is kinda painful to witness 💀

I wish you good luck for this run:D
Man i hope they make another crash party game
There’s no rumors man 😒
Rember the purple is nitro fueled
Prepare for the rage 😂😂😂
Children's party game where the announcer sounds like he's in mortal kombat
If they remastered this game with online vs mode and added tons of characters I would buy the new gen console just for that and be addicted to it for like a year
Bro really just threw stuff with Dingodille instead of using his melee
Think you will do a Compilation of you "You fail" video as it looks like you will be hearing a lot of it soon sadly.
I've 200%-completed this game like at least *ten* times in Co-op with my dad in a ten years timeframe. In that same amount of time I must have completed this game in the Single Player mode barely once or twice. The point is that, YES, this game is such a living hell to complete in Single Player.

Choosing Dingodile right now is gonna drive you nuts later 😅
Dingodille my favorite too , GOOD LUCK LEWIS ( you will needed for 200% )))))
p.s. Here after your devs time ( Crash 4 )
19:56 N Brio so dumb and funny
That's the rarest time I've heard Lewis laugh.
Of course they going fight back, not letting you win!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4:32 Nbrio just WH-d Kong XDDD
gorilla*
nice vid
Good Luck Lewis lol
22 fails in and I know you’re already regretting starting this game. You’ll probably be doing that per level in the end levels
I always chose dingodile since i was a kid
Lewis doesn’t know what best of three means..
Uh oh
150 fails by the end? I think that's really low balling it. I'd say 250 min and potentially 400+
I watched 6 ads but it was worth it
You’re gonna suffer a lot
On PS3, the game is 25% faster. I just can't 200% complet it
Is it?
@starman5901 Yes
Did bro really loose against Papu Papu ?
Yh he not a smart player
🙂
Hello
This game would be easier to 200% with ps4/ps5 emulation with rewind feature and less of a headache for trophies. I see myself abusing it lol.
Don't see it coming to ps4/ps5 , don't get your hopes up
Me neither, but one can dream.
If you want to 201% it HMU and we’ll sort out doing it if you fancy
No 201 on PAL
@ damn! Would have loved to do co-op and go for that extra 1%
