PS1 Rare Error - Fearful Bandicoot Harmony

just messing around with my PS1 and this happens =)
woah

[@LN_P]

And then Crash appeared with hyper realistic fur and bloodshot eyes

[@damienf15]

woah

[@the_real_Kurt_Yarish]

And then he turns his head at a 40° angle, looks right at the camera and says "FUCK"

[@mr.fantastic172]

Then he turns into the microphone and shouts "SHIT" while shaking his head in a really funny way the audience can't see

[@brandonperez8977]

oh great, a another Sonic.exe fan... 😤

[@MamutaPWIP]

He needs to wash his eyes now

[@zsideswapper6718]

That's why his name's Crash.

[@not_yoshmen]

Crash just crashed the game.

This truly makes me fearful of the bandicoot Also, disappointed there was no Gran Turismo jumpscare at the end or something.

[@zelenyyspaz]

I remember I used to watch your videos, I remember that original Fearful Harmony, I used to be so scared of it, always had nightmares, now I just think about it and laugh.

Fearful harmony will never not be terrifying. also glad to see you're still uploading!

[@leonid_rusl]

Crash: stepped back PlayStation: *no*

[@produKtNZ]

That is actually quite surreal - imagine being able to see the game logic in the background freaking out and clearly trying to draw the screen in the right place. poor code lol

[@unnamedscribble-auttp]

i mean this console was made in 1994 so ofc the errors are gonna be weird

[@_lun4r_]

consoles of this era were not as refined - this is caused by VRAM not being fully cleared/overwritten by the BIOS.

[@NFS4LFE]

PlayStation aesthetic will never die

[@SombraSR]

Oh nah that’s wild 💀 Never knew it kept the pictures in tact but at the same time it’s so weird tho

[@PuceGaming445]

imagine this happens when your playing the ps1 at night

[@masterc12_]

You could start a ritual

[@zbreeziigaming3987]

All hill naw

[@piporgames]

Quite strange actually. I thought VRAM would be cleared after a reset, but I guess not?

[@_lun4r_]

the likely reason is: - the BIOS routines do not clear it. - the game executable ran by the PS1 will clear it. - also VRAM will be cleared by fully powering off the console due to it being backed by the voltage going through the motherboard.

[@ItsYaGirlAvacado]

I used to have Crash Bandicoot on my sister’s old PS1. I played the console way beyond its prime- around 2015 or so- but if I’d seen this video as a kid, I would’ve been scared shitless, and likely would’ve never played the PS1 or Crash Bandicoot again.

[@OfficialJulerGaming]

*The ps1 takes screenshots of your gameplay then saves them to your mem card and then resets to then the screenshots will be used as fearfully harmony assets then fearful harmony occurs*

[@BeGamerz125]

Weirdest error I saw in my life

[@PlayStation_5247]

What's next? Personified Bandicoot Fear???

[@themightyade]

“Visuals may vary each time”

[@_lun4r_]

yep they do, due to different ways of how the PS1 is trying to interpret the invalid instructions and thus interpreting the current contents of VRAM

[@isaachunt69420]

I think that's the boss music that starts playing when crash bandicoot starts coming for you. I'd lock lock my doors and windows and hope he doesn't catch me while I sleep. Some say if you do the ritual of the disc cleaning, you might be safe from his wrath. But this is the risk we take when we want to play this timeless classic. We all know the risks.

[@zekie0]

2:40 YOUR POPCORN IS DONE TAKE IT OUT OF THE MICROWAVE

[@SANGERZONVOLT444]

ah yes! if you have a fat ps1 with a gameshark on parallel port attached, it saves a "screenshot" of the last activity before the console reset, but never knew it could be done, natively

[@bby256]

Because the video ram wasnt cleaned. Thing you see on the screen is in the video ram and its supposed to be cleaned after reset but it didnt.

[@aicelio]

They call him Crash For a Reason

[@theoneandonlypoocian]

Now this is true nightmare fuel

[@bear7873]

bandicoot harmony

[@oracle_seer_]

love the weird ps1 errors. do you know how this error occurrs with the crash Bandicoot? instead of it just being the "normal" error?

[@markusTegelane]

Here's what I think you need to do to trigger it: 1. Start and play the game 2. Swap to a fearful harmony trigger disc 3. Reboot console, i.e. press the RESET button (do not power off, because that will clear the RAM in a few seconds; I guess with slim model you can quickly poweroff then turn on, but I'm not sure)

[@joveaaron-real]

​@@markusTegelanethat's exactly what I thought would happen, because fearful harmony dumps vram contents apparently

[@joveaaron-real]

​@@markusTegelaneit would be cool to experiment with an emulator to figure out why does the fearful harmony trigger.

[@joveaaron-real]

​@@branislavweber7635 it definitely is possible, because an emulator is basically a software-based representation of the console, we would need to have access to internal emulator variables and stuff

[@theresefarhat7234]

I never thought this would be possible

[@thebroskis6364]

It's possible to do this with all games tbh, just gotta take the game out while it's still playing and put a different one in, then reset the ps1

[@youleeun]

Looks like something got stuck in the buffer while rebooting. Awesome!

I just remembered this channel randomly and looked at it to find out it just posted a video

[@_lun4r_]

and this, ladies and gentlemen, proves how the fearful harmony is closely related to the current state of VRAM

Holy shit dude thats wild

look at these beautiful faces 😆

[@Prosbros92727]

I said that too in real life

[@Tech_deck1]

Starts at 1:16

[@wanfedererwan3536]

My theory is probably PS1 didn't save entirely when BK4 swap discs and press RESET. The PS1 shows Fearful Harmony and the last game you played.

[@wanfedererwan3536]

And PS1 'weirdly' scroll to the left while copying the frame.

[@johnborderlands]

0:53 son

[@Doomslayer151]

When if capacititors not discharge is ferds VRAM and ps1 overwrite the ram without reset(theory)

[@ekysboham]

my theory is that when turned off the console ram is not immediately refreshed making the last images appear on the screen for no special reason

[@unnamedscribble-auttp]

you play the game switch to fearful harmony trigger disc then you reset console so the ram doesnt clear entirely

[@NodokaHanamura]

That probably is it. The PS1 probably didn't clear the framebuffer all the way, so something is pointing to data in the frame buffer as part of the startup procedure and rendering that instead of what should be there.

[@AnarquiaCookbook]

[@Martin__zzz]

crash bandicoot? more like crashing the ps1 bandicoot.

[@ClonewarswarsClone]

Crash on crack essentially

[@josefran4555]

0:52 "SON"

[@goosebyte]

It looks like the console vomited the contents of VRAM onto the screen for some reason, and the last frame of Crash was still in there... super weird.
