Definitely an interesting list to say the least. Crash Bandicoot 1 was the first ever Crash game I ever played when I was I believe 3. I have immense nostalgia for that game, BUT I do see how flawed the game is with it's very awkward jumping. While I do think the game is fairly easy, 100% was always a challenge for me until I just played it nonstop and mastered it. It's definitely a game that has a theme and rolls with it. From the graphics, to the locations, to the ambiance soundtrack. I do firmly believe that Crash 2 is the superior Crash game IMO. It just did so many things right, with a lot more fluid movement, the game having a bit more character and not just ambiance, etc. Warped is also hugely nostalgic for me, but yeah I play Crash to actually do platforming, not get involved with vehicle stages. Regardless, the soundtrack was fantastic and the gameplay was genuinely fun. My list would probably have Crash 2 first, then Crash 1 in S tier. Great list video. I've always took what you've said about Crash over the years to heart and could understand what you've said 100%.
Crash of the Titans puts more emphasis on beat'em up gameplay & jacking titans than platforming, so I don't care if the platforming is lack lusting. Mind Over Mutants actually focuses more on platforming creating that perfect balance of platforming & fighting which was good.
Twinsanity is literally a poor mans Jak & Daxter game, and even a Crash Bandicoot game especially considering you can't even jump on most enemies anymore.
You could also say WOC is a poor man’s crash 3 because they’re literally the same but WOC is worse. Twinsanity and jak and daxter have nothing in common.
My personal list; Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back Crash Bandicoot Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped Crash Of The Titans/Crash Mind Over Mutants (I honestly can't tell which one I'd take over the other so I just decided to rank them as equals) Crash Twinsanity Crash Bandicoot: The N.Sane Trilogy Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex Now when are we getting that tier list of all the racing games?
Funny if Id listen this to you say this in 2014 or something id probably would've lost my pea brain shit on twinsanity but years later, the games aight. But very well, put together vid Stimpy. I wanna do something like this when get all the crash banidoot games, i guess i feel inspired or something. Great vid tho 👍
I'm wondering what your opinion on titans ds is, if you played it at all. I understand why it is often dismissed, but I do think that game is worth playing, it's also quite the technological achievement for the DS.
8:59 "It clearly demonstrates that Naughty Dog were getting restless, wanting to stretch their programming legs" Sure, and I'm supposed to believe that.
@@puttu_racing You mean so bad it's good right even though the game might be broken there's so much glitches that it's probably the coolest crash game ever
@@crashtwinsanity5166 My favorite Crash games are Crash 1 and CTR Nitro-Fueled (I probably would prefer the original versions of both games but I don't own them)
19:36 19 years old Little boys ho pretend to be veterans on Crash franchise be like: Edit: Crash Twinsanity: a game ho have's one of the best ost packs of all the franchise MONSTRO: NOO I'M A GROW UP BOY, I ALREADY HAVE 19 YEARS OLD I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT CRASH FRANCHISE 😭😭😭😭
I genuinely think the only reason why people like Twisanity so much is because they haven't played any other "open" 3D platformers. I used to think it was a pretty cool game when I was little but after playing more open ended 3D platformers I realise how mediocre it is. I still like it just not as much. Also I lowkey hate how it flanderised Cortex and set the tone for the Radical games going forward writing wise.
oooh the fanboys are gonna lose their shit when they see you placed wrath above twinsanity. but you’re right, everything about that game is utter peen. also thank you for playing decent music over that segment rather than the dumpster fire twinsanity OST. like truly an assault on my poor ears. gross.
I'm glad they're gonna lose their shit, hopefully they give up on this series cause I'm getting tired of hearing them overpraise that overrated rushed trash. Twinsanity is the worst made Crash game that only has a loud dedicated fanbase of fans who act like childish morons when that game gets criticized.
@Jacob Negrete "No wonder you're here, stimpy is perfect for someone like you" I used to kind of hate stimpy cause he slandered the hell outta WOC when he first reviewed it years ago and it seem like he started the hate for it on youtube. He also used to be blind like you about how good he thought Twinsanity was until he woke up and realized it was actually crap. ""TwInSaNiTy iS ThE wOrSt MaDe CrAsH gAmE" you sound like an autistic 4 year old." You and the rest of the Twinsanity fanboys love saying "TwInSaNiTy iS ThE bEsT MaDe PoSt Nd CrAsH gAmE" on a daily basis and act like butthurt little crybabies if anyone dares criticize the "perfect" and "beloved" Crash Twinsanity, so yea you guys are the autistic ones. "There are numerous things to enjoy about twinsanity despite being rushed. A game can be broken and still be fun." And there are numerous things to enjoy about the other post-ND games despite them not being as good as the originals in most eyes but at least they're finished and offers more fun things to do with more polish. "So you can stop the comparing to sonic 06 because this is what sets it apart." Lets see: both games are the most unfinished & unpolished of their respective series, both had terrible development cycles, both released in the mid-2000s, both made fans of their respective series give up, both impacted the series negatively, and did I forget to mention both are super rushed games. "Just because wrath is "not as broken" doesn't make it better." It's definitely objectively better since it's finished and not composed of lots of gameplay flaws but it's still possible to find something in Twinsanity to enjoy more than WOC on a subjective level, but gameplay wise why would you play something with more flaws and worse Aku Aku protection and slide jumps. "It's numb execution of the original formula, very boring and uninspired. " Twinsanity's has a terrible execution of just doing its own thing since it's so flawed & rushed. Plus it's a very cheap knockoff of the original series as a whole, like whatever it does to feel like a Crash game is a huge downgrade from compared to the OG games, especially by Crash 1 standards it falls flat. It also feels like a very poor man's Jak and Daxter game in its "open world gameplay". "Twinsanity, regardless if people think it's good, okay, or bad, was a step in the right direction for the series." No it wasn't, cause look where it led the series. Right back to the original gameplay starting with Nsane. Twinsanity didn't do anything for the series except mark the beginning of changes that people hated Crash for later until Nsane brought it back to what the general public fondly remember Crash for: that ND gameplay which was just as unique as the open world gameplay. What Crash had was already unique and Twinsanity tried getting rid of it, and now it's back baby in Crash 4. "Doing the same thing over and over again will just put him into the realm of obscurrity." Lol and him doing something completely different from what he's known for didn't already do that? You're really overexaggerating how stagnated you think a few games like WOC made the series. Bruh after Nitro Kart the series changed more than stayed the same let's be honest. "I'm not saying it's the best game in the world, but it's not as bad as you guys are making it out to be. Definitely better than that woc trash." I'm not saying it's the best game in the world, but it's not as bad as you guys are making it out to be. Definitely better than that Twinsanty trash. You see what I did there? Cause that's exactly how I feel when you guys shit on WOC and act like Twinsanity's the best Post ND game. It's really just comes down to preference at this point in which of the two you think is better cause they're both mediocre that's not ND tier. "Plus, there are many critics who disagree with your shitty ass opinion so keep having your temper tantrum" Lol you're the guy with the tantrum making long ass paragraph comments complaining about me complaining. That's literally your only good defense to Twinsanity which is saying "At least this group of circle jerks disagree with you." I don't give a rat's ass how many disagree with me cause I'm gonna defend the games I like till the end of time. "All in all, you're just an annoying, miserable, basement dwelling crash fan whose blood boils every time they hear praise for a certain game and will try to put down anyone of the sort because you want to hate the game so bad. The game is okay, get over yourself, and fuck off." Wow what a childish thing to say to someone who doesn't like what you like. Bro get yourself a new mirror and ask yourself "I'm I a butthurt Twinsanity fan? You clearly have nothing better else to do in your boring life but waste time trying to shame a stranger for not liking one damn game that you like. Must be nice circle jerking to dumbass trash games like Twinsanity. Go outside and get laid.
Really well-put-together video. A lot of points you made in this video I found to be absolutely valid. And I'm glad you gave constructive criticism for Twinsanity rather than just saying it's shit because it was unfinished. The Google Translate analogy you gave Wrath was spot-on. It's true that Wrath and Twinsanity could've been still not great but much better games had they not been rushed, but rushed development is not an excuse for the games being bad, which is what a lot of people misconstrue. Wrath had potential, and Twinsanity was a broken, buggy Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Alpha build with godawful af music. Correction: Godawful af autistic screeching. Anyway, it was nice to see you come back to this series and atone for those (no offense, though you probably won't take any, cause you'll agree) rancid 2013-14 reviews I naively considered to be good. I do agree with this list, although I would've put N. Sane in the same tier with Titans, Mutant, and Wrath. But, that's just my fucking opinion. Sorry for this long paragraph of a comment, by the way. Okay, I'm gonna go do something more productive. *G R E E N P E N I S*
I wish Twinsanity would get remade with all of it’s cut content in it. There were so many cut levels that I wish we could’ve gotten to play. Like “Gone a Bit Coco”. “The Lava Caves” or even that cut level where you can use Cortex’s hoverboard. Man it would’ve been cool.... But I still do really like the game. Always have and will.
Im so happy to have found ur channel once again, Stimpy. Ur influence on youtube gaming community (related to Crash and Spyro especially) is defo huge and having Ur voice still exist on youtube is something special. Love Ur content. Love Ur humor. Love Ur videos. Keep on Keepin on, Keep. BTW U were one of the first youtubers I really enjoyed the content of back when your Spyro videos were still being uploaded so Im one of Ur OG fans (AKA bitches) from back in the day. And Im so happy that U see what I saw all my life in Crash 1. That game was and forever will be my favorite. First video game Ive ever beat when I was 5 and still enjoying its atmosphere and skyboxes and music. Anyways, good luck, man. Sending cheers from Georgia 🇬🇪
Omg Stimpy, I knew that voice was familiar, I still watch your Wrath Of Cortex video to this day. I almost gave you shit for putting Twinsanity so low but I get your logic on it lmao. Why is the camera inverted?
I honestly wasn't expecting you to have basically swapped opinions on WoC and Twinsanity... I still prefer twinsanity by miles, but I can still see your perspective
Good funny wonderful awesome nice video. I think it’s nice to have a video to get your word on these games out easily without having to watch hours of commentary. Grading system is also really well thought out 🙌
"This game’s music is the kind of thing you’d play with a person if you were trying to piss them off" I can confess to using twinsanity music as micspam material before... Glad to know I wasn’t the only on to reach that conclusion lol
Aight, watched the vid twice, can't help it youur vids have always been entertaining. I like your sense of humour, references and you're just so fun to listen to. Anyway, i try to be as objective as i can with my views, what an exciting life i lead, so here's my ranking: Crash Bandicoot: I stand with ND's opinion on this one but being less harsh. While i do agree the game is kinda bad now, with forgettable music, bs save system, tedious gems, bad boss fights and awful controls, nobody knew any better back then. The level design is still great though so it gets a B from me, pretty alright game. (Pretty good and underrated review on it too: ruclips.net/video/ObUNZ3hNc-4/видео.html) Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back: Is perfect, next game....ok boss fights suck but that's literally it. I don't mind the backtracking, it's only for 100% completion and the level themes are fine, S tier. Crash Warped: Oh man, ND trully was tired of that outdated formula by that point and wanted to expand and it shows. Shoving all these pointless gimmicks in, making the game tedious or easier. I'm gonna keep it short, screw the vechiles, only the Pura levels were fun and i wouldn't even call them the best, Polar levels seem more skillful. Underwater sucks in every game ever, (except in Rayman 3 and Legends) plane levels have nothing to do with Crash, (you can argue Jet Pack levels don't either but we only excuse 1 per game, the Atlas Sphere in WOC...everything else) i payed for a platformer after all. Power ups are good but levels don't test your ability to use them, making them only useful for exploiting the game on time trials. Fruit Bazooka is especially exploitable and the upgraded belly flop is still useles. Crash 3 is A tier. (Fav review of Warped: ruclips.net/video/UjM66q0kXxA/видео.html) CTR: the best of its genre, S. Bash: Repetitive, bland, boring, unfair, forgettable and pretty bad over all with not many redeeming qualities....it is a party game after all. F (to not pay respects, just like it didn't with the series lore) (Also TGX again has my fav review of this game: ruclips.net/video/ELa84ZKazTk/видео.html) WOC: Is pretty wack. But for real i like it more than Warped, no matter how amateurish, bland and unfinished it is in some areas. For a next gen Crash game it is pretty dissapointing but i like the vechiles (besides the sub) which don't get used 100% of a level most of the time and when they do, (Atlas Sphere) they make me cum. (Flying stages are more bearable here, worst they can be is boring, except with Coco in her spaceship which is great) Controls are overall nice, unfortunately slide spinning and slide spin jumping is missing though. OST slaps i have nothing more to add besides mentioning the only 2 bad ones, Tornado Alley and Avalanche. Level themes is what kept my interest the most, there's simply too much level variety without needing the vechiles for the whole way through, just a nice little set piece. It is pretty basic with it's enemies and platforming most of the time though and boss fights were pretty alright with the final one being pretty great but overall the game's mediocre so...yeah. C tier. (Caddicarus points made me moist: ruclips.net/video/bRWlItnkidQ/видео.html) CNK: Bad for it's controls alone, an embarrassment of a sequel to CTR that tried (like WOC to be fair) to be as close to it's predecessor as possible but doing the things it did, WRONG! Anti gravity, (as an idea) presentation, the Norms and Velo were pretty fantastic though. Again, (like in your review which i'm guessing that was your point) pretty graphics or other positives (it has no other positives, looool, not the level design, not the shortucts, not the music even in CTR:NF these tracks are a PAIN to get trhough for me, they're so insufferably BORING and in Hyper Spaceways case worse than CNK thanks to anti gravity not being there...Clockword Wumpa, Out Of Time and Electron Avenue are cool though, fine) are not enough where the single most important thing in the game does not feel right, especially for a follow up to CTR, the controls. F tier. (Calcom's vid is a bit outdated and some points he got wrong but i still agree for the most part ruclips.net/video/RSKUh3j4xZc/видео.html) Twinsanity: Considered by some a Crash Bandicoot game for non Crash Bandicoot fans, probably people who don't like Crash but like this which makes sense. Most Crash fans are brain-damaged anyway so some slight updates to that outdated PS1 formula confused their poor little minds. I'm not gonna BS with you, Twinsanity is my fav in the series thanks to the presentation, the humor, the characters, personalities, backstories, open but still linear design, multiple paths for hidden goodies...basically a proper EVOLUTION to the series that was pretty much required. I'm not gonna focus on the technical issues here like many (insert racial slur here) do since everyone and their dead pet knows the game's rushed, big fucking surprise. What is there though is fun and it mostly works it just leaves you wanting more. (Remake) I love how this game looks, it has the best art style in the series by far, even icons and concept art in the menus are enough to entertain my dumbass. This 2D art style is basically eye pron, one of the prettiest i've seen ever in a game, (Alongside TF2, Hotline Miami and Rayman Legends) with the models looking smooth, clothes more detailed and over the top expressions. (memeworthy, that's a huge plus for me) Music is subjective but no one can deny how well made it's made so i'll leave it at that. (IOriginally i typed a lot about Twinsanity, but RUclips won't allow me to post since the comment was too long so i had to cut some stuff and i decided to cut from here since i talked about Twinsnaity the most......but yeah) Based but i'm putting the game in S tier, lowest i'd go is A, but if one day it's finished i'm ranking it 3 or 4 slots above S and naming that slot after the game. (Check Petronious out, pretty good review on the subject. ruclips.net/video/zYUYZdy0yuw/видео.html Caddicarus and TGX have made some good points in their reviews too, i quoted some in fact) CTTR: Mediocre, but the idea of exploring the park and finding multiple ways of progression in order to finish the game is pretty good. Pretty basic and mediocre overall being a jack of all trades master of none so with that being said, this game is mediocre. C tier, i pretty much agree with your review on this game the most. COTT: Is a great game but not one i have a lot to say about. I now understand how Caddicarus felt when he called it boring but i wouldn't go that far. While level 12 and the whole soundtrack, except BBQ Bash, are boring, the game's pretty good, polished and fun overall. It takes some inspiration from God Of War with its simple combat but you'll need to get good in later stages. Story, characters and writting are pretty good, probably the best in the series and 7-8 hours of gameplay are nice. Character designs though while fine are by far some of the worst, especially Crunch and Coco. I think even the devs would agree coz god damn, in MOM they gave us the best they EVER looked. (Aside from Crash, Cortex and the masks which are fine again in MOM but are the best in Twinsanity) A tier, you (and TGX ruclips.net/video/MYAIgXS8GZQ/видео.html) have pretty much created some of the best reviews on this game and MOM. Speaking off CMOM: Takes 2 step forwards and 3 step backs, it pretty much improves everything over Titans, doing what every sequel should do. Improved gameplay, expand on the mutants abilities, a memorable soundtrack, Coco as a playable character, semi open world etc they basically listened to fan feedback and while it is my prefered mutant experience, the backtracking and story are too big of flaws to simply ignore. It saddens me (not as much as Twinsanity being rushed although MOM also feels a bit rushed, with that backtracking that without it the game would've been shorter but there's also that random teleporting and the teleporters that come way too late into the game plus that anti climactic ending and some cut music that sounds like BBQ Bash meaning they would've brought that area back and...i need to breath) but it is what it is. B tier and again if you want a more in deapth analysis, TGX is your guy. ruclips.net/video/bZvOq_sVHbE/видео.html N. Sane Trilogy: I got nothing...they just made the game shittier but Future Tense is the best level in Warped. B-Mask (ruclips.net/video/kFQAucOHB_o/видео.html) and TGX (ruclips.net/video/U2hg6yOSKh4/видео.html) basically explained my feelings. CTR:NF: Better remake but still inferior thanks to the physics and geometry. All new tracks, customization options and new additions like engine swapping are excellent of course. The pit stop, grind and online are horrible though. There shouldn't have been MTX in a remake of a 20 year old kids game in the first place.(Jaks review on this game is great, mainly because he calls Activision out on this BS ruclips.net/video/odM7YiNkx-4/видео.html) Honorable mentions: XS, N-Tranced and Titans DS for being good but forgettable. Crash........."4" it's about.........actually screw it. CB:IAB: I wasn't too excited for it at first, mainly because it's in that same outdated PS style, but if it manages to be as good and clever as Crash 2 but also just a bit more open like Twinsanity, i'm all in. Sounds like their taking inspiration from every game, but mostly 2, THANK GOD! Slide Jumping i hear feels wrong though and music sounds boring but i hope i'm wrong/they look into that. I was skeptical about the masks at first, the elementals seem more interesting to me and something like the Grimly works better as a gimmick than just a mask but whatever, i'm finally excited about Crash again.
@@Teh69thSpartan It was a long time. While they are kind of outdated (and thats why ND didnt made yet another linear platformer on the PS2, something WOC and IAT should had learn), that doesnt make the games any less fun imo.
@@puttu_racing i mean, I just was surprised based on how he made 2 really pissed off Wrath reviews in the past (like 8 yrs ago) and how he gave twinsanity more praise back in the day. I suppose it shocked me how his views basically switched on those 2 games
I kinda regret going as hard on Twinsanity as I did in this video (in general). IMO the real problem with Twinsanity is that it's just really boring (it isn't obviously bad like a Shadow the Hedgehog or Sonic 06). I still don't particularly like the soundtrack but now I can kinda laugh with it.
I find myself enjoying Crash Bandicoot 1 the most of the trilogy. And yeah, never really liked the variety approach that Crash 3 brought in, and it's one of the worst trends when it comes to the platformer genre.
Nice video 👍 Here's my top 10 crash bandicoot games: 10. Crash tag team racing 9. Crash of the titans 8. Crash mind over mutant 7. Crash nitro kart 6. Crash wrath of cortex 5. Crash twinsanity 4. Crash team racing 3. Crash bandicoot 2 2. Crash bandicoot warped 1. Crash bandicoot 4 it's about time
This was a great video, it was very easy to see where you were coming from with each of your opinions but it still managed to be entertaining thanks to it being very well paced. Something that I found interesting though is how you compared the competitive side of Melee to the speedrunning of Twinsanity. While I agree totally that Twinsanity's glitched speedrunning doesn't really save the game at all, I don't think its comparable to Melee being saved by its competitive side, because in the case of Melee, while sure the game has a lot of mediocre shit like the single player, the game's focus was always on multiplayer fighting, and it's a game that gives you the liberty to choose a specific amount of randomizable stages, with a specific amount of items, for a specific amount of time and with a specific amount of stocks. The community didn't have to add anything to the game because the tools were already there for them, the game gives you the freedom as a player to play what is in your opinion the best way to play Melee, and most of that freedom came in the multiplayer fighting cause that was clearly the focus of the game. In the case of Twinsanity, not only is speedrunning not the focus, the game wasn't meant to give you the liberty to go through walls and get out of bounce and whatever, so yeah kind of a long rant for such a specific detail but I thought I thought it could be interesting to point out lol good video
it's from an audiobook about kurt cobain i got like 4 years ago when I actually bought into the audible meme cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/695879195615690804/764326959588704276/why.mp3 glad it came in handy eventually

"Crash 2 had better level design" I wouldnt say better. Crash 3 level design is more simple but still well designed. Crash 2 level design has some flaws like half levels required to you to backtrack towards the camera or searching for some unfair hidden secrets, thats not good design. ND reduce its precise platforming with each game if you think about it. I prefer simple and more polished designed that more complex levels with some problems. "Warped features fake gameplay variety" If you didnt like the variety then ok, but the variety is well designed. "Warped despite being a platformer half of levels were platforming" Still enough platforming in my opinion. "Hot Coco is the worst level in the original trilogy" Very subjective. This level introduces open world mechanics for the first time in a Crash game. I love it. Bad actual design levels were the jetpack or the backtracking ones in Crash 2. "People couldnt continue to play the platformer they paid for" Isnt really that hard, also, the actual game shouldnt be judge because it dont follow a specific genre, but how well is designed. "These levels arent quite as challenging as Crash 2" Challenging /=/quality Also, i feel Crash 2 easier, even if Crash 3 have the powers. Try to get all the platinum relics. All of the challenge that Crash 2 have is mostly unfair when you go for 100% for the reasons i state before, or Crash 1 with for example the save system. "They are prioritizing the aesthetic feel of gameplay variety" Well, that translates into more fun. I have more fun with Warped than Crash 2 because of that. When i return to Crash 2 it feels like a downgrade for me. Although, i agree in your opinion about Twinsanity, WOC and Titans. Twinsanity was rushed and feels like a downgraded Jak 1, and WOC i actually like it (is practically the same as Warped), but in this case i criticizice the variety not because it was too much, but because the controls were horrible for the most part.
I'm going to be honest, many of the problems you mentioned with Warped and WOC are very finicky and far-fetched and therefore lose RELEVANCE. You're looking at it very close minded when you say almost everything's bad just cause it has a certain amount of what you don't personally want in a platformer, instead of judging by its quality of what it is. Ironically Warped has still more refined vehicle and platforming gameplay than Crash 2 just Crash 2 have more platforming! Warped was just continuing what Crash 2 established with the hybrid platforming style of Crash's gameplay, so it's not its fault that people nowadays look poorly at that style just cause they want more platforming in their platformer. And for that reason is that games like WOC are underrated for very unfair reasons such as having a lot of variety instead of judging it for its design, and they continue to overrating games like Twinsanity that is super rushed and unpolished and does not contribute anything to the 3d platforming genre. It's not like Warped & WOC had less platforming than vehicles anyway.
Exactly. It seems like nowadays people are getting more & more greedy for platforming, and more entitled about what a platforming game should have, plus seems like they're against any sense of a game having variety and just want more of the same, more of what they personally like. WOC, and even Warped to an extend, are getting treated so unfairly by the fanbase cause people's standards in platforming apparently has changed. Warped & WOC were made to be as fun as possible by having numerous amounts of fun gameplay but still keeping a balanced amount of platforming, but these people don't care about fun anymore like they used to back then, they only care about what a game should have to make them personally satisfied. Also Twinsanity is the worst thing to happen to this series and fans overpraising it to high heavens will only make it worse, so they need to wake up and realize that the game was never good for Crash's reputation and wasn't a good game period.
@@MSCLeap75 'fun' is an entirely subjective concept. When you buy a platforming game, it's usually because you enjoy platforming. Sure some variety like the jet board and animal levels are a nice change of pace. However, having to play 4 jet ski levels in a platforming game is utterly ridiculous. Tying this back into fun being subjective, it is entirely reasonable for someone who likes platforming to be put off by poorly designed mini-game levels that take up more levels than they're worth.
@@homersams9015 But the vehicle levels in Crash 3 are very separate each other. Sure, you have 4 jetski levels but they arent in the same "hall". And having to play the same snow and jungle levels in Crash 2 it also becomes repetitive.
@@MSCLeap75 And adding to what Pikachu says, Warped was a game released in 1998. Warped with all the variety and graphics was very ambitious for its time. I think people shouldnt rate Warped for "today standards", because that would be very unfair.
@@sebastiankulche Freaking exactly! Plus Warped wasn't the only platform adventure game that focus on variety since other games like Spyro, Gex, Sonic Adventure, and Donkey Kong 64 during the 90s also focused on variety gameplay since it was the trend to do various things to mix up the platforming experience to keep the games fresh and exciting. Back then I don't think people cared that much about how much platforming a game had, and cared a lot more about the overall experience from a 3D action adventure game. It wasn't until retro style 2D gameplay started coming back on the big screen in 2009 where gamers started looking at platforming games as games that need tons of platforming focus in order to fit the platforming genre, which meant games like Warped and WOC getting downplayed for not meeting those standards despite Warped been often known as the best/peak Crash experience.
Definitely an interesting list to say the least. Crash Bandicoot 1 was the first ever Crash game I ever played when I was I believe 3. I have immense nostalgia for that game, BUT I do see how flawed the game is with it's very awkward jumping. While I do think the game is fairly easy, 100% was always a challenge for me until I just played it nonstop and mastered it. It's definitely a game that has a theme and rolls with it. From the graphics, to the locations, to the ambiance soundtrack. I do firmly believe that Crash 2 is the superior Crash game IMO. It just did so many things right, with a lot more fluid movement, the game having a bit more character and not just ambiance, etc. Warped is also hugely nostalgic for me, but yeah I play Crash to actually do platforming, not get involved with vehicle stages. Regardless, the soundtrack was fantastic and the gameplay was genuinely fun. My list would probably have Crash 2 first, then Crash 1 in S tier. Great list video. I've always took what you've said about Crash over the years to heart and could understand what you've said 100%.
Can you beat Crash Bandicoot?
7 years later and you still make me die of laughter. Godspeed king.
I like Crash Bandicoot
he's orange
he do be lookin priddy orange doe😳
Crash of the Titans puts more emphasis on beat'em up gameplay & jacking titans than platforming, so I don't care if the platforming is lack lusting. Mind Over Mutants actually focuses more on platforming creating that perfect balance of platforming & fighting which was good.
Twinsanity is literally a poor mans Jak & Daxter game, and even a Crash Bandicoot game especially considering you can't even jump on most enemies anymore.
Even as a kid when I rented it I felt it was just J&D but way worse lol
You could also say WOC is a poor man’s crash 3 because they’re literally the same but WOC is worse. Twinsanity and jak and daxter have nothing in common.
Twinsanity is really the Sonic 06 of the Crash series.
It's closer to Quake 4 than Sonic 06 i'd say.
I don't know if you know that
But the RUclips is a website that just can be used by people ho are 13 years old or more
I wouldn’t call it THAT bad
My personal list;
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back
Crash Bandicoot
Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped
Crash Of The Titans/Crash Mind Over Mutants (I honestly can't tell which one I'd take over the other so I just decided to rank them as equals)
Crash Twinsanity
Crash Bandicoot: The N.Sane Trilogy
Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex
Now when are we getting that tier list of all the racing games?
11:36
Thank God someone finally says it
Also my favorite track from Wrath would have to be Fahrenheit frenzy, I cannot stop listening to it
Noice vid, I'd still put Crash 3 at the top of S, Twinsanity in C, Titans in B, and Wrath at D. And I don't think N sans counts.
Funny if Id listen this to you say this in 2014 or something id probably would've lost my pea brain shit on twinsanity but years later, the games aight. But very well, put together vid Stimpy. I wanna do something like this when get all the crash banidoot games, i guess i feel inspired or something. Great vid tho 👍
I'm wondering what your opinion on titans ds is, if you played it at all. I understand why it is often dismissed, but I do think that game is worth playing, it's also quite the technological achievement for the DS.
30:03 i'd say Sly 1 instead.
9:05 o shit

Acctually, the Twinsanity fanboys are the normal Crash franchise fans, but the truth is, people ho hate Twinsanity are CTR or Warped toxic fans

I'M A GROW UP BOY, I ALREADY HAVE 19 YEARS OLD
I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT CRASH FRANCHISE
😭😭😭😭
I genuinely think the only reason why people like Twisanity so much is because they haven't played any other "open" 3D platformers. I used to think it was a pretty cool game when I was little but after playing more open ended 3D platformers I realise how mediocre it is. I still like it just not as much. Also I lowkey hate how it flanderised Cortex and set the tone for the Radical games going forward writing wise.
Feels great to hear Stimpy’s voice again.
damn, you matured so much compared to that 40 min wrath of cortex review 🤣
oooh the fanboys are gonna lose their shit when they see you placed wrath above twinsanity. but you’re right, everything about that game is utter peen. also thank you for playing decent music over that segment rather than the dumpster fire twinsanity OST. like truly an assault on my poor ears. gross.
@Jacob Negrete :flushed:
Jacob Negrete lol jacob my dude you should probably seek therapy for Unhealthy Attachment to The Videogame™️
I'm glad they're gonna lose their shit, hopefully they give up on this series cause I'm getting tired of hearing them overpraise that overrated rushed trash. Twinsanity is the worst made Crash game that only has a loud dedicated fanbase of fans who act like childish morons when that game gets criticized.
Wrath of Cortex is easily the better game.
@Jacob Negrete "No wonder you're here, stimpy is perfect for someone like you"
I used to kind of hate stimpy cause he slandered the hell outta WOC when he first reviewed it years ago and it seem like he started the hate for it on youtube. He also used to be blind like you about how good he thought Twinsanity was until he woke up and realized it was actually crap.
""TwInSaNiTy iS ThE wOrSt MaDe CrAsH gAmE" you sound like an autistic 4 year old."
You and the rest of the Twinsanity fanboys love saying "TwInSaNiTy iS ThE bEsT MaDe PoSt Nd CrAsH gAmE" on a daily basis and act like butthurt little crybabies if anyone dares criticize the "perfect" and "beloved" Crash Twinsanity, so yea you guys are the autistic ones.
"There are numerous things to enjoy about twinsanity despite being rushed. A game can be broken and still be fun."
And there are numerous things to enjoy about the other post-ND games despite them not being as good as the originals in most eyes but at least they're finished and offers more fun things to do with more polish.
"So you can stop the comparing to sonic 06 because this is what sets it apart."
Lets see: both games are the most unfinished & unpolished of their respective series, both had terrible development cycles, both released in the mid-2000s, both made fans of their respective series give up, both impacted the series negatively, and did I forget to mention both are super rushed games.
"Just because wrath is "not as broken" doesn't make it better."
It's definitely objectively better since it's finished and not composed of lots of gameplay flaws but it's still possible to find something in Twinsanity to enjoy more than WOC on a subjective level, but gameplay wise why would you play something with more flaws and worse Aku Aku protection and slide jumps.
"It's numb execution of the original formula, very boring and uninspired. "
Twinsanity's has a terrible execution of just doing its own thing since it's so flawed & rushed. Plus it's a very cheap knockoff of the original series as a whole, like whatever it does to feel like a Crash game is a huge downgrade from compared to the OG games, especially by Crash 1 standards it falls flat. It also feels like a very poor man's Jak and Daxter game in its "open world gameplay".
"Twinsanity, regardless if people think it's good, okay, or bad, was a step in the right direction for the series."
No it wasn't, cause look where it led the series. Right back to the original gameplay starting with Nsane. Twinsanity didn't do anything for the series except mark the beginning of changes that people hated Crash for later until Nsane brought it back to what the general public fondly remember Crash for: that ND gameplay which was just as unique as the open world gameplay. What Crash had was already unique and Twinsanity tried getting rid of it, and now it's back baby in Crash 4.
"Doing the same thing over and over again will just put him into the realm of obscurrity."
Lol and him doing something completely different from what he's known for didn't already do that? You're really overexaggerating how stagnated you think a few games like WOC made the series. Bruh after Nitro Kart the series changed more than stayed the same let's be honest.
"I'm not saying it's the best game in the world, but it's not as bad as you guys are making it out to be. Definitely better than that woc trash."
I'm not saying it's the best game in the world, but it's not as bad as you guys are making it out to be. Definitely better than that Twinsanty trash. You see what I did there? Cause that's exactly how I feel when you guys shit on WOC and act like Twinsanity's the best Post ND game. It's really just comes down to preference at this point in which of the two you think is better cause they're both mediocre that's not ND tier.
"Plus, there are many critics who disagree with your shitty ass opinion so keep having your temper tantrum"
Lol you're the guy with the tantrum making long ass paragraph comments complaining about me complaining. That's literally your only good defense to Twinsanity which is saying "At least this group of circle jerks disagree with you." I don't give a rat's ass how many disagree with me cause I'm gonna defend the games I like till the end of time.
"All in all, you're just an annoying, miserable, basement dwelling crash fan whose blood boils every time they hear praise for a certain game and will try to put down anyone of the sort because you want to hate the game so bad. The game is okay, get over yourself, and fuck off."
Wow what a childish thing to say to someone who doesn't like what you like. Bro get yourself a new mirror and ask yourself "I'm I a butthurt Twinsanity fan? You clearly have nothing better else to do in your boring life but waste time trying to shame a stranger for not liking one damn game that you like. Must be nice circle jerking to dumbass trash games like Twinsanity. Go outside and get laid.
I, MONSTRO, believe Crash Twinsanity is the best Crash game.
It's actually the worst Crash game tho, but more power to ya if you like it like that.

Really well-put-together video. A lot of points you made in this video I found to be absolutely valid. And I'm glad you gave constructive criticism for Twinsanity rather than just saying it's shit because it was unfinished. The Google Translate analogy you gave Wrath was spot-on. It's true that Wrath and Twinsanity could've been still not great but much better games had they not been rushed, but rushed development is not an excuse for the games being bad, which is what a lot of people misconstrue. Wrath had potential, and Twinsanity was a broken, buggy Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Alpha build with godawful af music. Correction: Godawful af autistic screeching. Anyway, it was nice to see you come back to this series and atone for those (no offense, though you probably won't take any, cause you'll agree) rancid 2013-14 reviews I naively considered to be good. I do agree with this list, although I would've put N. Sane in the same tier with Titans, Mutant, and Wrath. But, that's just my fucking opinion. Sorry for this long paragraph of a comment, by the way. Okay, I'm gonna go do something more productive.
*G R E E N P E N I S*
Wait... That's terrible. I quit!
I wish Twinsanity would get remade with all of it’s cut content in it. There were so many cut levels that I wish we could’ve gotten to play. Like “Gone a Bit Coco”. “The Lava Caves” or even that cut level where you can use Cortex’s hoverboard. Man it would’ve been cool.... But I still do really like the game. Always have and will.

Im so happy to have found ur channel once again, Stimpy. Ur influence on youtube gaming community (related to Crash and Spyro especially) is defo huge and having Ur voice still exist on youtube is something special. Love Ur content. Love Ur humor. Love Ur videos. Keep on Keepin on, Keep.
BTW U were one of the first youtubers I really enjoyed the content of back when your Spyro videos were still being uploaded so Im one of Ur OG fans (AKA bitches) from back in the day. And Im so happy that U see what I saw all my life in Crash 1. That game was and forever will be my favorite. First video game Ive ever beat when I was 5 and still enjoying its atmosphere and skyboxes and music.
Anyways, good luck, man. Sending cheers from Georgia 🇬🇪

Relics are really fun as long as there aren't global cycles. Having to wait a certain amount of time before hitting the clock is just really tedious.

27:38 In practice, it's a Crash Bandicoot game if it was written by Steven Seagal
Aight, watched the vid twice, can't help it youur vids have always been entertaining. I like your sense of humour, references and you're just so fun to listen to. Anyway, i try to be as objective as i can with my views, what an exciting life i lead, so here's my ranking:
Crash Bandicoot: I stand with ND's opinion on this one but being less harsh. While i do agree the game is kinda bad now, with forgettable music, bs save system, tedious gems, bad boss fights and awful controls, nobody knew any better back then. The level design is still great though so it gets a B from me, pretty alright game. (Pretty good and underrated review on it too: ruclips.net/video/ObUNZ3hNc-4/видео.html)
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back: Is perfect, next game....ok boss fights suck but that's literally it. I don't mind the backtracking, it's only for 100% completion and the level themes are fine, S tier.
Crash Warped: Oh man, ND trully was tired of that outdated formula by that point and wanted to expand and it shows. Shoving all these pointless gimmicks in, making the game tedious or easier. I'm gonna keep it short, screw the vechiles, only the Pura levels were fun and i wouldn't even call them the best, Polar levels seem more skillful. Underwater sucks in every game ever, (except in Rayman 3 and Legends) plane levels have nothing to do with Crash, (you can argue Jet Pack levels don't either but we only excuse 1 per game, the Atlas Sphere in WOC...everything else) i payed for a platformer after all. Power ups are good but levels don't test your ability to use them, making them only useful for exploiting the game on time trials. Fruit Bazooka is especially exploitable and the upgraded belly flop is still useles. Crash 3 is A tier. (Fav review of Warped: ruclips.net/video/UjM66q0kXxA/видео.html)
CTR: the best of its genre, S.
Bash: Repetitive, bland, boring, unfair, forgettable and pretty bad over all with not many redeeming qualities....it is a party game after all. F (to not pay respects, just like it didn't with the series lore) (Also TGX again has my fav review of this game: ruclips.net/video/ELa84ZKazTk/видео.html)
WOC: Is pretty wack. But for real i like it more than Warped, no matter how amateurish, bland and unfinished it is in some areas. For a next gen Crash game it is pretty dissapointing but i like the vechiles (besides the sub) which don't get used 100% of a level most of the time and when they do, (Atlas Sphere) they make me cum. (Flying stages are more bearable here, worst they can be is boring, except with Coco in her spaceship which is great) Controls are overall nice, unfortunately slide spinning and slide spin jumping is missing though. OST slaps i have nothing more to add besides mentioning the only 2 bad ones, Tornado Alley and Avalanche. Level themes is what kept my interest the most, there's simply too much level variety without needing the vechiles for the whole way through, just a nice little set piece. It is pretty basic with it's enemies and platforming most of the time though and boss fights were pretty alright with the final one being pretty great but overall the game's mediocre so...yeah. C tier. (Caddicarus points made me moist: ruclips.net/video/bRWlItnkidQ/видео.html)
CNK: Bad for it's controls alone, an embarrassment of a sequel to CTR that tried (like WOC to be fair) to be as close to it's predecessor as possible but doing the things it did, WRONG! Anti gravity, (as an idea) presentation, the Norms and Velo were pretty fantastic though. Again, (like in your review which i'm guessing that was your point) pretty graphics or other positives (it has no other positives, looool, not the level design, not the shortucts, not the music even in CTR:NF these tracks are a PAIN to get trhough for me, they're so insufferably BORING and in Hyper Spaceways case worse than CNK thanks to anti gravity not being there...Clockword Wumpa, Out Of Time and Electron Avenue are cool though, fine) are not enough where the single most important thing in the game does not feel right, especially for a follow up to CTR, the controls. F tier. (Calcom's vid is a bit outdated and some points he got wrong but i still agree for the most part ruclips.net/video/RSKUh3j4xZc/видео.html)
Twinsanity: Considered by some a Crash Bandicoot game for non Crash Bandicoot fans, probably people who don't like Crash but like this which makes sense. Most Crash fans are brain-damaged anyway so some slight updates to that outdated PS1 formula confused their poor little minds. I'm not gonna BS with you, Twinsanity is my fav in the series thanks to the presentation, the humor, the characters, personalities, backstories, open but still linear design, multiple paths for hidden goodies...basically a proper EVOLUTION to the series that was pretty much required. I'm not gonna focus on the technical issues here like many (insert racial slur here) do since everyone and their dead pet knows the game's rushed, big fucking surprise. What is there though is fun and it mostly works it just leaves you wanting more. (Remake) I love how this game looks, it has the best art style in the series by far, even icons and concept art in the menus are enough to entertain my dumbass. This 2D art style is basically eye pron, one of the prettiest i've seen ever in a game, (Alongside TF2, Hotline Miami and Rayman Legends) with the models looking smooth, clothes more detailed and over the top expressions. (memeworthy, that's a huge plus for me) Music is subjective but no one can deny how well made it's made so i'll leave it at that. (IOriginally i typed a lot about Twinsanity, but RUclips won't allow me to post since the comment was too long so i had to cut some stuff and i decided to cut from here since i talked about Twinsnaity the most......but yeah) Based but i'm putting the game in S tier, lowest i'd go is A, but if one day it's finished i'm ranking it 3 or 4 slots above S and naming that slot after the game. (Check Petronious out, pretty good review on the subject. ruclips.net/video/zYUYZdy0yuw/видео.html Caddicarus and TGX have made some good points in their reviews too, i quoted some in fact)
CTTR: Mediocre, but the idea of exploring the park and finding multiple ways of progression in order to finish the game is pretty good. Pretty basic and mediocre overall being a jack of all trades master of none so with that being said, this game is mediocre. C tier, i pretty much agree with your review on this game the most.
COTT: Is a great game but not one i have a lot to say about. I now understand how Caddicarus felt when he called it boring but i wouldn't go that far. While level 12 and the whole soundtrack, except BBQ Bash, are boring, the game's pretty good, polished and fun overall. It takes some inspiration from God Of War with its simple combat but you'll need to get good in later stages. Story, characters and writting are pretty good, probably the best in the series and 7-8 hours of gameplay are nice. Character designs though while fine are by far some of the worst, especially Crunch and Coco. I think even the devs would agree coz god damn, in MOM they gave us the best they EVER looked. (Aside from Crash, Cortex and the masks which are fine again in MOM but are the best in Twinsanity) A tier, you (and TGX ruclips.net/video/MYAIgXS8GZQ/видео.html) have pretty much created some of the best reviews on this game and MOM. Speaking off
CMOM: Takes 2 step forwards and 3 step backs, it pretty much improves everything over Titans, doing what every sequel should do. Improved gameplay, expand on the mutants abilities, a memorable soundtrack, Coco as a playable character, semi open world etc they basically listened to fan feedback and while it is my prefered mutant experience, the backtracking and story are too big of flaws to simply ignore. It saddens me (not as much as Twinsanity being rushed although MOM also feels a bit rushed, with that backtracking that without it the game would've been shorter but there's also that random teleporting and the teleporters that come way too late into the game plus that anti climactic ending and some cut music that sounds like BBQ Bash meaning they would've brought that area back and...i need to breath) but it is what it is. B tier and again if you want a more in deapth analysis, TGX is your guy. ruclips.net/video/bZvOq_sVHbE/видео.html
N. Sane Trilogy: I got nothing...they just made the game shittier but Future Tense is the best level in Warped. B-Mask (ruclips.net/video/kFQAucOHB_o/видео.html) and TGX (ruclips.net/video/U2hg6yOSKh4/видео.html) basically explained my feelings.
CTR:NF: Better remake but still inferior thanks to the physics and geometry. All new tracks, customization options and new additions like engine swapping are excellent of course. The pit stop, grind and online are horrible though. There shouldn't have been MTX in a remake of a 20 year old kids game in the first place.(Jaks review on this game is great, mainly because he calls Activision out on this BS ruclips.net/video/odM7YiNkx-4/видео.html)
Honorable mentions:
XS, N-Tranced and Titans DS for being good but forgettable.
Crash........."4" it's about.........actually screw it.
CB:IAB: I wasn't too excited for it at first, mainly because it's in that same outdated PS style, but if it manages to be as good and clever as Crash 2 but also just a bit more open like Twinsanity, i'm all in. Sounds like their taking inspiration from every game, but mostly 2, THANK GOD! Slide Jumping i hear feels wrong though and music sounds boring but i hope i'm wrong/they look into that. I was skeptical about the masks at first, the elementals seem more interesting to me and something like the Grimly works better as a gimmick than just a mask but whatever, i'm finally excited about Crash again.
The original formula is not outdated.
@@sebastiankulche this one gets it
@@Teh69thSpartan It was a long time. While they are kind of outdated (and thats why ND didnt made yet another linear platformer on the PS2, something WOC and IAT should had learn), that doesnt make the games any less fun imo.

Great video
Even though I'm not a fan of Twinsanity's music (at all) at least it isn't as terrible Tag Team Racing's soundtrack.
I kinda regret going as hard on Twinsanity as I did in this video (in general). IMO the real problem with Twinsanity is that it's just really boring (it isn't obviously bad like a Shadow the Hedgehog or Sonic 06). I still don't particularly like the soundtrack but now I can kinda laugh with it.
I actually think the CTTR soundtrack is better.
1:11:50 THE BIG ELECTRON

This was a great video, it was very easy to see where you were coming from with each of your opinions but it still managed to be entertaining thanks to it being very well paced.
Something that I found interesting though is how you compared the competitive side of Melee to the speedrunning of Twinsanity. While I agree totally that Twinsanity's glitched speedrunning doesn't really save the game at all, I don't think its comparable to Melee being saved by its competitive side, because in the case of Melee, while sure the game has a lot of mediocre shit like the single player, the game's focus was always on multiplayer fighting, and it's a game that gives you the liberty to choose a specific amount of randomizable stages, with a specific amount of items, for a specific amount of time and with a specific amount of stocks. The community didn't have to add anything to the game because the tools were already there for them, the game gives you the freedom as a player to play what is in your opinion the best way to play Melee, and most of that freedom came in the multiplayer fighting cause that was clearly the focus of the game.
In the case of Twinsanity, not only is speedrunning not the focus, the game wasn't meant to give you the liberty to go through walls and get out of bounce and whatever, so yeah kind of a long rant for such a specific detail but I thought I thought it could be interesting to point out lol good video

What about N sane trilogy?
"Crash 2 had better level design"
I wouldnt say better. Crash 3 level design is more simple but still well designed. Crash 2 level design has some flaws like half levels required to you to backtrack towards the camera or searching for some unfair hidden secrets, thats not good design. ND reduce its precise platforming with each game if you think about it. I prefer simple and more polished designed that more complex levels with some problems.
"Warped features fake gameplay variety"
If you didnt like the variety then ok, but the variety is well designed.
"Warped despite being a platformer half of levels were platforming"
Still enough platforming in my opinion.
"Hot Coco is the worst level in the original trilogy"
Very subjective. This level introduces open world mechanics for the first time in a Crash game. I love it. Bad actual design levels were the jetpack or the backtracking ones in Crash 2.
"People couldnt continue to play the platformer they paid for"
Isnt really that hard, also, the actual game shouldnt be judge because it dont follow a specific genre, but how well is designed.
"These levels arent quite as challenging as Crash 2"
Challenging /=/quality Also, i feel Crash 2 easier, even if Crash 3 have the powers. Try to get all the platinum relics. All of the challenge that Crash 2 have is mostly unfair when you go for 100% for the reasons i state before, or Crash 1 with for example the save system.
"They are prioritizing the aesthetic feel of gameplay variety"
Well, that translates into more fun. I have more fun with Warped than Crash 2 because of that. When i return to Crash 2 it feels like a downgrade for me.
Although, i agree in your opinion about Twinsanity, WOC and Titans. Twinsanity was rushed and feels like a downgraded Jak 1, and WOC i actually like it (is practically the same as Warped), but in this case i criticizice the variety not because it was too much, but because the controls were horrible for the most part.
I think Crash 2's level design & difficulty is weaker than 1's, somewhat.

You're looking at it very close minded when you say almost everything's bad just cause it has a certain amount of what you don't personally want in a platformer, instead of judging by its quality of what it is. Ironically Warped has still more refined vehicle and platforming gameplay than Crash 2 just Crash 2 have more platforming! Warped was just continuing what Crash 2 established with the hybrid platforming style of Crash's gameplay, so it's not its fault that people nowadays look poorly at that style just cause they want more platforming in their platformer. And for that reason is that games like WOC are underrated for very unfair reasons such as having a lot of variety instead of judging it for its design, and they continue to overrating games like Twinsanity that is super rushed and unpolished and does not contribute anything to the 3d platforming genre. It's not like Warped & WOC had less platforming than vehicles anyway.
Exactly. It seems like nowadays people are getting more & more greedy for platforming, and more entitled about what a platforming game should have, plus seems like they're against any sense of a game having variety and just want more of the same, more of what they personally like. WOC, and even Warped to an extend, are getting treated so unfairly by the fanbase cause people's standards in platforming apparently has changed. Warped & WOC were made to be as fun as possible by having numerous amounts of fun gameplay but still keeping a balanced amount of platforming, but these people don't care about fun anymore like they used to back then, they only care about what a game should have to make them personally satisfied. Also Twinsanity is the worst thing to happen to this series and fans overpraising it to high heavens will only make it worse, so they need to wake up and realize that the game was never good for Crash's reputation and wasn't a good game period.
@@MSCLeap75 'fun' is an entirely subjective concept. When you buy a platforming game, it's usually because you enjoy platforming. Sure some variety like the jet board and animal levels are a nice change of pace. However, having to play 4 jet ski levels in a platforming game is utterly ridiculous. Tying this back into fun being subjective, it is entirely reasonable for someone who likes platforming to be put off by poorly designed mini-game levels that take up more levels than they're worth.
@@homersams9015 But the vehicle levels in Crash 3 are very separate each other. Sure, you have 4 jetski levels but they arent in the same "hall".
And having to play the same snow and jungle levels in Crash 2 it also becomes repetitive.
@@MSCLeap75 And adding to what Pikachu says, Warped was a game released in 1998. Warped with all the variety and graphics was very ambitious for its time. I think people shouldnt rate Warped for "today standards", because that would be very unfair.
@@sebastiankulche Freaking exactly! Plus Warped wasn't the only platform adventure game that focus on variety since other games like Spyro, Gex, Sonic Adventure, and Donkey Kong 64 during the 90s also focused on variety gameplay since it was the trend to do various things to mix up the platforming experience to keep the games fresh and exciting. Back then I don't think people cared that much about how much platforming a game had, and cared a lot more about the overall experience from a 3D action adventure game. It wasn't until retro style 2D gameplay started coming back on the big screen in 2009 where gamers started looking at platforming games as games that need tons of platforming focus in order to fit the platforming genre, which meant games like Warped and WOC getting downplayed for not meeting those standards despite Warped been often known as the best/peak Crash experience.
good list but i'll have to report the vid for that bit at the end. no hard feelings
