Wrath of Cortex :^)

Either crash 2 or twinsanity.
Twinsanity is really overlooked IMO, fun and charming game that just needed a bit more polish.
>>323131371
Except Mario is boring and rehashed to death, while Crash died peacefully
>>323131467
Mah nigga. Twinsanity is underrated

The hell happened to Crash? I remember playing Warped as a kid. I wish they'd make more games like warped. That game was fun. I also played the GBA crash.

This I really loved Twinsanity to this day still wonder how the game would have turned out if they had more development time.
Of the Naughty Dog games, Crash 2. Of the non-Naughty Dog games, Crash Twinsanity.
Of the not platformer games, Crash Team Racing is and will always be the GOAT.
>>323131792
you eat a dick
CTR > Crash 2 > Crash 3 > Crash > Huge Adventure > Bash > Everything else.
Did anyone actually like the mutant games? I never played it but they looked shitty compared to the earlier crash games.
Crash 1 is the indie gig
Crash 2 is the signing and GOAT debut album
Crash 3 is the live gig
Crash Team Racing is the greatest hitsNone of them are bad, but you're a faggot if you don't think Crash 2 was the perfect sequel
>>323133582
>Wasn't he owned by Sony?
Nope. Crash was owned by Universal, never by Sony. Activision has the rights now but they're doing fuck all with it.

The best soundtrack. The best game.
Wrath of Cortex was my first Crash games, loved it, by I think Twinsanity was more fun
>>323137034
You dodged a bullet mutant games are complete shit. Crash has a hp bar Aku-aku has been moved from the shield that upgrades to invincibility to item that works for block animation and allows Crash to control mutants. Tiny talks and sounds like Mike Tyson parody, Crunch is Mr.T parody and does nothing the entire first game except says stupid shit. None of the classic Crash baddies return like Ripper-roo or Dingodile and if they did they'd probably be ruined as well.

Does anyone else have any hope of a good Crash game being made in the near future? Or is all hope lost?
>>323138924
No. There is no chance of another Crash game being made and also being good as long as Activision owns it.
>>323138924
Layden brought my hopes up and crashed them in the same minute
Besides CTR which will always reign king, Crash 2 is definitely my favorite.
As you all have been saying though, Twinsanity was a fabulous gem that just needed some more shine to it. If it had another 6 months in it's development time I'm sure it would be the best game in the series.

I really wish I could get that game running properly in an emulator.
Last time I attempted it it ran like TRASH and Crash had tiny bits of his model missing for some reason.
Both software and hardware modes ran horribly, it was terrible.
3 was decent, but it didn't have the same magic as the first 2
>>323139761
If you get the right settings, it runs almost perfectly without any graphical glitches (including the fucked up shadows and garbage graphics) and a steady 60fps. Unfortunately, there's a game breaking crash that occurs after the Dingodile fight, making the game unbeatable.
I found that out the hard way when I was going for a 100% run.

What's the best emulator for Twin Sanity? pcsx2?
>>323131792
My Mum enjoyed itShe died 2 months after she finished itThe last thing she said to me was a thank you for introducing her to itShe said it helped her deal with the pain
>>323140932
>>323131317
Crash 2. The gba games were also surprisingly good, Except for that shitty cross over game with spyro.
I never played any of the ps2 games honestly. Were they any good?
>>323141073
Twinsanity is glorious, but it needed more dev time. The game even jokes about it late in the game.
Wrath of Cortex is rough, but it is a serviceable Crash 3 clone.
>>323140814
I haven't tried it in any other emulator to be honest. You'll need to futz with a lot of the settings to get it running just right without the weird garbled textures. Unfortunately I don't remember the exact settings you need, it's been a while since I played this game.
And, once again, the game is unbeatable. You won't be able to progress past the Dingodile fight unless you can find a save file online that has you placed right after the fight.There actually is such a save file out there if you do the searching. I used it to beat the game, but whoever uploaded the file was a lazy fuck and didn't collect all the gems making it literally impossible to 100% the game in an emulator.
>>323131317
Only ever played Crash 1. Played the everloving shit out of it with my siblings, though. We must have cleared that game 30 times.
Good shit.
>>323141308
I don't mind it being unbeatable, I never got too far in the game and now I really wanna play but my xbox hueg is ded and I have no copy for ps2
I played Crash 3 the most, but I love 2 and 1 as well. 1 has the best atmosphere out of all of them.
>>323141238
The game even took a pot shot at Wrath of Cortex. It happens when Cortex is talking to his penguin guards who look pissed.
>The cheque bounced?
>Well it has been 5 years and Wrath of Cortex didn't sell very well...
Twinsanity did have some very good tracks. This being my favourite one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kWE_WHRbmI
2.
1 is rough but solid.
2 only polished and improved.
3 polished further but brought itself down by too many minigames and slightly inferior level design.
Everything else except CTR (which by the way is the best cart game of that entire gen) is not worth mentioning.
>>323141527
Then go nuts. The game runs perfectly in pcsx2 once you get the settings all worked out. It'll take a bit of trial and error but I promise you it can be done with little to no graphical artifacts or slowdown.
>>323141561
Crash Bash was a fun party game, and had shit loads of content in multiplayer, I played the shit out of it with my brother
Twinsanity was the peak of the franchise in term of overall quality
Even with all that cut content the game was god tier
What went wrong then?
why is Crash dead now?
>>323141308
>>323140814
>>323139950
If anyone's emulating it on PCSX2 here's the save to get past the crash after Dingodile, it's what I used and it will save you a bunch of googling to find it.

You could mention Twinsanit for a potentiall good Crash game.
The soundtrack in game is pretty strong:

Dumping my favourite tracks from the game in multiple replies by the way.
>>323141812
Thanks anon<3
>>323141714
Fun like any party game because you'd be playing it with friends and family.
But overall it was a really low quality product, especially comparing it to CTR and C3 which had come out before it.
>>323137154
What makes Crash 2 so good, isn't it just more of the same Crash 1 goodness?
I've never thought of it as being on the same level a sequel as Wipeout2097, THPS2, Destruction Derby 2, Tekken 2, or Twisted Metal 2 for example. Games that were clearly perfect, same-gen follow ups, for how much they improved on their predecessors.
>>323142091
Crash 2 took Crash 1 and made it better in every way while adding a lot of cool stuff. The controls are tighter, sliding added a lot to the way you moved Crash around. The visuals got an upgrade. The music got an upgrade (Crash 2 still remains the best Crash OST). Bosses were more fun. Secrets were also handled much better in Crash 2. Bonus stages actually mattered.
Plus, it didn't have that stupid bullshit save system that Crash 1 had.
>Still checking youtube to this day if someone didn´t find some super secret level
I mean it could happen right? I can´t understand to this day how some people managed to find these two secret levels in 3
>>323141869
>You could mention Twinsanit for a potentiall good Crash game.
I played it, it weak shit and I would never call it good.
I'm guessing people who praise it had a PS2/Xbox as their first console and found out about Crash through it and worked back into the better games.
>>323142379
One of my first PS1 games was Crash Bandicoot and I think Twinsanity had the potential to be on par with, if not just flat out better than the original 3 games if it were properly polished.
But that's just one little anon's opinion
>>323142379
I finished all the crash games on PS1 numerous times (it was my favorite series) and still loved twinsanity
>>323142524
That's fine.
Unfortunately I could not enjoy it. Only the music stood out in my memories and despite it being nice it did not remind me of the Crash I knew.
>>323142379
You could see they understood Crash better than the guys doing Wrath of Cortex. Level design was somewhat interesting with pretty good boss fights and nice ideas. The soundtrack was pretty comfy as well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qft6BHdxRA
>>323142379
I enjoyed the humour in twin sanity but that's about it. The references to previous games were pretty well done and there's a small gag in a specific setpiece where you crash through what is basically a whorehouse and Cortex shouts "MOTHER?!?!?" which was pretty funny.
>>323142758
God fuck I love that song, reminds me a lot of Devin Townsend
>>323142379
I've had the same reaction when first tried it back in 2007. Mediocre platforming and unconventional level design were a big turn off. The music too seemed too different from the original three games. But then I've tried it again using emulator and had a blast. Yeah, the gameplay is meh but the voice acting is hilarious and the music is actually very fun to listen to. Bosses were not bad either. It's not as good as Ctash 2 or even 3 but still a nice little title for someone who wants a bit more Crash.
And yeah, somehow I had no problems on the Dingodile fight. Perhaps my settings were different? I rememeber the game had no shadows (which made jumps with certain camera angles quite a challenge)
>>323142758
>You could see they understood Crash better than the guys doing Wrath of Cortex
Never played that.
I tried Twinsanity when the only other Crash games I had played then were the original trilogy and CRT.
It just felt like a bad knock-off.
>>323143163
>It just felt like a bad knock-off
>Didn't play Wrath of Cortex
Oh, anon, you have no idea. It's like they decided to make a next-gen remake of Warped but something gone completely wrong in the process.
>>323143562
>So hyped for a new crash game
>Wow, even for my puny teenage brain this looks bad.
>At least the models will load really quick, right?
>R-right?
Crash 2 is my favourite game ever.
tawna is best waifu
>>323143754
Is it me or did the developers' team messed up the gravity? For me it felt that Crash is taking too long to land after evey jump compared to the PS1 titles. Really messed up the dynamics for me and platfroming didn't feel as smooth and satisfying.
>>323144163
WoC messed up a lot, really. Everything feels off (models, animations, about four fifths of the game has some sort of gimmick).
At least the music is fine.
