@@carlosaponte2349 the PS2 version is the most stable since it was developed exclusively for the ps2 alone and used many developer tricks, the xbox version has more dips because of the detailed fur rendering, and the gamecube version has very frequent dips because it was outsourced to eurocom who had no experience in making/porting games for 6th generation consoles.

[@revenge1205]

I would say the PS2 version is the best for this game. Xbox version has sharper graphics, but on the other hand, the PS2 version seem to have smoother effects compared to the Xbox version, like the snow at 2:55. Also, the textures and colors in the PS2 version look about as crisp, if not, more clearer and vibrant than the Xbox version. The GameCube version however is missing many lighting and graphical effects (even missing the snow), and on top of that, having big slow down in many areas which really hinders the experience.

[@pwskipper1407]

Great opinion. I think the xbox version is the best because the graphics are the best of tge three and the playstation version is alot darker than The others

[@CGPTrainer]

I concur

[@Amber_xo_133]

This is the first Crash Bandicoot game to be released on other consoles that are not just Playstation. On the Xbox version of the game, there is a cheat where you can beat the game in full 100%. When you start a new game, you'll be told to type in a name. Type in "WOMBAT" and the cheat will be activated. This is also the first Crash Bandicoot game where Coco has combat moves when you play as her. This game was originally going to be a free roam game, but the concept of that idea was later scrapped and the idea wasn't used until Crash Twinsanity (2004) was released.

[@Manic_Panic]

The Xbox port is mostly superior with Crash's fur and faster load times but the shadows are broken. It's missing that softness from the PS2. At 1:20, you can see Crash's shadow going through his shoes a bit. The snowflakes seem to have some type of transparancy issue so they look better on PS2. Also, this version (and the Gamecube) is missing a unique song in one of the later levels that is only present on PS2. Even the sky looks different, it's more foggy, not sure if intentional or not. The PS2 version is the most consistent one. While missing the few tweaks from Xbox, it also doesn't have the bugs from it. Its biggest problem are the loading screens unless you have the platinum/greatest hits release. The Gamecube port on the other hand is downright terrible. The shaders and some graphical effects are completely gone, the snowflakes don't even show up and the shadows look somehow worse than Xbox's. Once again having this simplistic cartoony look like it happened on other games like Cars. I would say overall, the PS2 version is the best one.

[@blackgreece2702]

Agreed. The PS2 version is the most superior one out of the bunch

[@Manic_Panic]

@@crashpsptagteamracing5911 A lot of third party games got lazy with Gamecube ports because the money was coming from the PS2 and Xbox. Gamecube only got sloppy seconds. I have seen on this channel many comparisons where the Gamecube is included and most of the time, the shadows and shaders of the games look weird or broken. Unless a game is built for the system like Resident Evil 4, it will normally look worse than the PS2 versions despite being more powerful.

[@dontmindmyname7563]

Xbox is the best one. It quite obviously looks way better and the graphical “Issues” that you mention are so minor it’s negligent.

[@NickReymond]

Version Xbox is better

[@callumsparrow4379]

It’s so weird how the Gamecube version of this game is by far the worst one of the lot, especially when the GC releases of multi-platform games at the time were virtually the best versions to get out of the 3 main consoles.

[@classicgameover]

[@anen9332]

Xbox almost always had the superior multiplat releases. Your post is revisionism.

[@noel_996]

3. PS2 2. GCN (if optimized well) 1. XBOX

[@MoonOvIce]

Gamecube had the second best version with the occasional best, Xbox always had the best version of multiplats. Lots of times though, games that were developed specifically with the PS2's weird hardware in mind, did not do as good on Gamecube or Xbox (such as this game), but for the most part, Xbox always won.

I don't know. It's definitely the worst looking version (which makes no sense as the Gamecube is technically stronger in terms of Hardware vs the PS2 atleast) but it's still absolutely playable beginning to end.

[@Majestad_kev]

Why are people saying in the comments that the GC version is the worst? Are they blind or are they such PS Fanboys that they are not able to assume that GC was more powerful at the time.

[@revenge1205]

Because it is the worst version. Like others already mentioned, the GameCube version is missing several lighting and graphical effects, and on top of it, big slow down in some areas. Not sure why this is, but I know for sure that it’s not the fault of the hardware, but rather the fault of the developers for making such a poor port for the GameCube. In the case of the Crash Bandicoot series, most games were primarily designed for PlayStation consoles and this game shows.

[@anen9332]

The Xbox was much more powerful than the other two consoles. It had a fully-SIMD x86 CPU and the only programmable shader GPU in the world in a console until the 360 released in 2005. The Xbox's GPU -- NV2a -- was a beastly chip, and was arguably more powerful than the flagship NV20/GeForce 3 in 2001. It was internally known as NV27.5 according to J Allard, and was a hybrid GPU that had elements of NV20, NV25 and even NV30. NV30 didn't release until 2003. Arguably, the chip's closest relative is GeForce 4 TI (NV25), which didn't release until 2002. The machine was a monster. By comparison, the Wii -- which released in 2006 -- is almost certainly less powerful than the OG Xbox. The GameCube has a 1997 PPC CPU which is pre-Altivec, and despite the move to 'paired singles' this means that it wasn't a fully-SIMD CPU; likewise, the GPU was fixed-function, and thus is closer to tech from 2000 rather than 2001 and beyond. The Wii merely doubles the clocks on both chips. Meaning that the Xbox was siperior to a mainstream console released in 2006...a full five years later. Even the Wii U, still built on the 1997 Power PC tech of GC, didn't have a fully-SIMD CPU. And it took Nintendo a full 11 yeara to surpass the OG Xbox chipset. Or to have a programmable shader GPU in one of their consoles. Crazy.

[@anthonywise1989]

For me it was XBOX > PS2 > Gamecube. In the XBOX version i had Crash had actual fur similar to the Conker remake. It also had the best overall graphics and effects, the only drawback was that it lacked 16:9 support. The PS2 version had the worst graphics of the three but ran at 60 fps and had 16:9 support and better sound than the GC port. The Gamecube version looked almost as good as the XBOX version but is missing a lot of the visual effects the other two have and the sound is heavily compressed. The system has no 16:9 support at all, but the worst part of the GC port is that it's capped at 30 fps and in certain levels struggles to keep that.

Great video! I think you might accidentally switched PS2 and Gamecube version, because PS2 doesn't use any anti-aliasing and on your video it's shown the opposite. Gamecube version looks smoothed out and on the PS2 version we can see all the jaggies because there's no anti-aliasing. Also, PS2 version have better color palette than the Gamecube.
