@tabreezsiddique4 жыл бұрын
"A good boss battle isn't a good boss battle without a bit of frustration" I'd personally say it depends on what exactly causes that frustration of the boss fight. In this case, the boss fight is hard because of how bad jumping feels, not enough height and air time can be taken when doing jumps in this game and it can get easily annoying when in situations like this where platforming takes a huge importance in the game.

And for a series that at the time had regularly delivered 8.5/10 or higher, it got more hate than it deserved.

i am not really sure that every game was like this but in my experience the game wasnt on dvd. It was on cd (ps2 blue disc). This means that there was less space for the developers to work with. A couple other blue disc games that i got had similar or worse quality in graphics. This explains also the slow load times, and the much faster (and louder) disc spin of the system. The only bad thing i can say about this game is the second boss. As a kid, it was punishingly hard for me, at some point i got so pissed i gave up and stopped playing the game. After quite some time (5 years at least) i got around to it again and actually beat the damn boss. I really enjoyed the rest of the game and it never again felt unfair or harder than it should be. Its cute, its fun and there is a lot to do. in my opinion: crash 3 > wrath of cortex > crash 2

11:15 *_WRONG_* You need it for that gem platforming section to get another gem which was difficult af for me the first time but still fun. 15:02 You can tell where the spot to dodge is going to be if you look at Crunch the moment he releases this attack and exposes himself from some particles comming out of him. Great review btw, you gave a lot of insight, most i never knew about and i only disagreed on one part. Woc i believe is better than warped simply because it had variety in themes, excellent soundtrack, good controling vechiles, (Only the sub is the worst in the franchise, the mech i learnt how or what to shoot so i liked and i'd still would love to see how much the geniouses over at oxford studios would've perfected the sub, just like how they perfected almost all of Twinsanity, even their ideas were more Crash than the entire Naughty Dog trilogy) not being stuck in a vechile for most levels, longer sometimes more open and context behind levels. Example: H2O is Crash using the sub to reach an underwater base, then ditches it and goes on foot in search of a crystal. That's so fucking cool. Anyway, MY POINT! This new "more open, playable Coco and Cortex, context behind levels" game reminds me of wrath of cortex with unfortunately a teeny tiny bit of Twinsanity. Unfortunately because the game like wrath of cortex will not be as perfect or at least EXPAND on what the series evolution aka crash twinsanity accomplished, instead we're going back AGAIN to the outdated ND style. Bruh. At this point this "new" game is not as necessary as a twinsanity re-imagine is but whatever. Way.....WAY too fucking early to judge, these are just first impressions.

@@LeaveTheMark_YT apparently the developer wanted to add a wumpa fruit minigame Quote from The Cutting Room Floor "The original PS2 version of the game is notorious for its long load times, averaging around 47 seconds. According to the founder of Traveler's Tales, this was actually a leftover of a small minigame earlier in development that would occur where you could move Crash through hyperspace and collect Wumpa Fruit as he warped into the level, and any Wumpa Fruit collected would be added to your totals when the level loaded. However, due to a fraudulent patent Namco had over loading screen minigames at the time it had to be removed, and due to time constraints the long load times from when the minigame still existed couldn't be removed. The Greatest Hits re-release shrunk them down to a much more tolerable 17 seconds." thinking back on the game now i understand why my game took so long to load. later i bought the greatest hits version and now playing both versions i notice the difference.

And of course, it being the only Crash game I didn’t have, I wanted to play it every time I went to his house. I loved it. The artistic style. The music. The vehicles. The new characters and concepts. I haven’t replayed this one as an adult, but after watching this, I’m probably going to. The hate is unwarranted. This is a good Crash game.

I'd call this game "Mom: But we have Crash 3 at home" Is it a good game? Yeah, it is. Is it a good Crash game? Yeah, I think this is like the average. It's pretty much a Crash Bandicoot 3 part 2 for me. It sure isn't as good as the original trilogy, but it can still stand by its own. Also, based on how future games worked, this one is nice if you ever want to play the classic level-based platform formula from the original trilogy but have beaten it. I'd say this is a game for those who still want some classic Crash with not much focus on story or cutscenes and more platform action. And for someone who didn't have Playstation back in the early 2000s, this game was a godsent. Also, that checkpoint on the Coco level is for the death path. If you don't die on the normal level run, you can try infinite times the death path, which is pretty hard on that level because you need precise jumping and Coco doesn't have Crash's powers for that.
