Did it really kill the series?
How many Crash games have YOU bought since?
Exactly.
>That boxart
Eugh, makes me cringe every fucking time.
>Seven years since then
>Cancelled projects after cancelled projects
Yes.

good lord, I can't believe what a shit game this was
It was the first crash game i dropped after playing for only 20 or so minutesI kinda liked crash of the titans, I feel like I wanna replay it again. But MoM is just horrible
That character design makes me want to kill myself
It was pretty mediocre.
The PS2 and Wii versions are better than the flagship 360 version. Reviewers focused on the latter so it wasn't looked fondly upon.
Mind over Mutant was a mediocre game, if it wasn't a Crash game, it would have been pretty good. The cutscenes where fucking got tier in this game.
It was Crash of the Titans, the game before this one, that was truly garbage.
>>318148760
It was crash tag team racing, but those mutants were horrible piece of shit game. Same crash of the titans.
I hated twinsanity.
And then I wanted to give Titans a try. And I beat that game and could feel nothing but disgust.
And that's when I just gave up on Crash games entirely.
Crash wrath of cortex was the first unfun one.
Twinsanity was decent enough, but everything since has been shit.

>I hated twinsanity
Nigga what
Mind over Mutant was horribly, horribly mediocre. Almost offensively so.
>>318149453
>The PS2 and Wii versions are better than the flagship 360 version
that may be because the game was developed for Wii first, and then the graphics were up/downgraded for 360 and PS2.
Crash of the Titans destroyed the series, MOM just dealt the final blow.
When they changed Crash's main attack from a spin to just punching and kicking and riding on monsters, that's when the series died.
Also the level and character design is so bland. Just boring jungles and ruins. Nothing else to spice it up. Reminds me of Sonic Boom's artstyle.

>>318152531
twinsanity was alright the only bad thing about it was the abysmal loading times
I liked the concept of CotT and MoM but they really didn't need Crash in them at all. I'm not sure whether to be thankful they flopped or not seeing as how Spyro's corpse is still eternally trapped in Skylanders despite being completely irrelevant after the first game.
naughty dog leaving killed the series, i thought this was common knowledge
>>318153525
That killed it in the sense that good Crash games stopped being made. MoM killed the series in the more literal sense as in they stopped making any Crash games at all.
As far as I'm concerned, the series was done after Warped. Wrath of Correx wasn't very fun. I remember Twinsanity being kind of interesting, but I didn't finish it. I assume they've all been shovelware since then.
>>318153338
>What could possibly go wrong?
The last good game was Crash Bash.
Anybody who disagrees isentitled to their own opinion[/url]
Rate the best PS2 crash games for me so I can pick the best.
>>318152531
Twinsanity was a brief rise in quality on the way down.

No thanks
>>318154078
Based Bubsy coming back to save video gaming.
I remember crash of the titans being a middle of the road beat-em up game, nothing too offensive, but really repetitive and barebones and the level progression was all just 'beat up bad guy, then use him to beat up bigger bad guy', rinse and repeat.
What really threw me off was the puerile script, it was almost like borderlands 2 for kids in that regard with all the memespewing it did. I can't imagine this game being much better, it's probably just the same game again

What the fuck am i reading
Wrath of Cortex had garbage music and so did Mind over Mutant.
Is Twinsanity at least decent? Does it play like the main trilogy?
I've just finished Warped and I'd like more, but many people say that the good Crash games died with the PS1. Is that true?
>>318158334
Play Crash Team Racing and stop there. Twinsanity if you're feeling adventurous (it's alright, nothing to brag about) but everything else is trash.
>>318148760
No, Wrath of Cortex did.
>>318158334
Twinsanity was lore-faithful to the original games. Lots of nods to the bosses and such.
But it plays a little different in that it's linear, you can't backtrack levels (kinda justified in story but yeah)
Ienjoyed CotT
I played co op with a friend, it mostly was a decent romp.
Quick question:
Would you like this sort of duology and gameplay if it wasn't a crash game?
>>318158334
Play Wrath of Cortex, it's worth it. Also Twinsanity and the racing games. The franchise officially ends there, after that it is pure shovelware.
The series was already dead, that shit was the corpse twitching.
Is it worth to be dead or just a figurehead?
Spyro is a puppet, crash is in limbo, what's the point?
>>318162265
At least Crash is not condemned to be a Skylander forever. We can have hope.Very little hope
>>318148760
Yes.
It was pretty bad. It was trying too hard to be funny, instead of naturally being funny like the PS1 games were. The Titans are a really boring gameplay mechanic, and I'm sad they still insisted with that crap. It killed the franchise.
>>318158334
I would say Twinsanity is the last decent Crash Bandicoot game. It is not amazing, but it was okay for what it was.
>>318162862
Pretty much this. It had its bugs and glitches, but at the end of the day it wasn't super bad.
crash 3 killed the series
>>318163416
>>318164120
it was the first rehash, then wrath of cortex copied it and it got nowhere
>>318158875
>>318153525
>>318152884
Wrath of Cortex wasn't even bad. It felt exactly like a ND crash.
>>318164310
The series died after CTR. Warped was still a good game.
So... Does anyone else loveBash?
>>318164662
it was but you could tell they were trying too hard with all the gimmicks
>>318158935
>>But it plays a little different in that it's linear
How is that any different from the other crash games?
>>318165072
Glad you ignored the part about being unable to backtrack. That's pretty classic in Crash games
Twinsanity was the last good Crash game.
>>318164787
Crash bash was the best crash game full stop.
>>318164843
Oh definitely, just like Spyro 3. I guess the devs just didn't want them to be copies of their predecessors.
They weren't bad games, just a slight dip in quality.
>>318164843
The plane levels were the only ones that were absolute dogshitexcluding the boss battle. The motorbike ones are not that bad, but there are too many.
>>318165489
I wasn't a big fan of the jetski. I found it less fun than the plane levels, just because the jetski controls like dogshit. I mean, I suppose it's trying to be realistic, but I just hate it much more than I do the jetski in 2
>>318149579
Get fucked anon. Crash of the Titans was loads better than Mind Over Mutant. The backtracking in Mind Over Mutant was unbearable.
>>318164628
This is what people whose first Crash game was Warped believe.
>>318165973
Warped is good. Better than Crash 1. Wrath of Cortex feels slow and heartless, while also having ungodly loading times
>>318154053

It's like Warped if all the bad bits were 10 times worse. Also the PS2 loading times are fucking terrible.

The driving is so stiff. Everything else is just knda standard.

Blatantly unfinished but it's fun and does lots of cool stuff.
>TTR
5/10
It's clear that it's a PSP game. No focus or direction.
>>318166115
I've found that the only people who defend Wrath had grown up playing Warped, so they don't mind Wrath as much since it plays like an amateur clone of Warped.
>>318166286
Meh, I still defend Enter The Dragonfly, even if it is my least favorite Spyro game. I had a lot of fun with it, and I'm sure people did with Wrath as well

There's no way that something could possibly go wrong with that plan.
