Easily the best out of the 3 because of the stage variety, bosses, and weapons/gimmicks. Only bad part is the jet ski part but thankfully those are few and far between.

>Crash lacks any sort of depth to its platforming, you just go in a straight narrow line and jump whenever you see a hole ahead. The game lacks any depth, you don't need any calculation, it's just automatic holding forward and jump, there is no cadence to it, might as well play fucking Hugo.

I didn't ask you fuckers to tell me which Crash game was the best.

I just wanted to talk about 3.

>>337327945
I find all the vehicle/animal riding levels to be much worse than water ones which don't bother me at all.

>>337325141
I think it's the best game on the PS1
some good contenders are the other Crash games, and Tekken 2 and 3
>>
>>337325141
it's better than Uncharted 4.
No bait, honest opinion.

replace the PS1 graphics of Crash 3 with PS4 graphics and you have a 10/10 for today's standards.
>>
Too many annoying mini games, this also seemed to happen to Spyro with it's third title. Still good but the previous ones are better in my opinion.

The running ability was the best. Only ability that was shit was the heavy stomp since it literally didn't add anything to the gameplay and was just a gimmick solution to destroy iron boxes.

Probably the best game in the series (very close with Crash 2 though), and a great platformer all-around.

Only problem is there are a few too many vehicle stages and some of them are really shitty.

Having replayed 2 and 3 back-to-back, 100% and 104% completion each, I'd have a hard time saying which one is especially better.
Warped has a lot less in the way of level design that makes me want to fucking die (Cold Hard Crash, Unbearable, Piston it Away, etc) but it has bland vehicle levels that just soak up time.
The swimming levels are also the most BORING FUCKING THINGS holy fuck, they are devoid of fun.
Time trials were fun enough, good post-game content, the secret ending wasn't nearly as good as Crash 2's though.

Pretty good, I'd call it.
>>
>>337333151
I didn't mind it so much. The bazooka was the most noticeable flaw to me, as it just brought the game to a halt whenever you needed to use it. The super spin was my favourite. Really added an extra dimension to gameplay situations.

Decent.

Too easy and way too many gimmick levels to be as good as 1 or 2.
>>
>>337333932
>Cold Hard Crash, Unbearable, Piston it Away,

They were all really good levels, though

They're all fantastic games but it's indisputable that 2 > 1 > 3 is the appropriate ranking.

Crash 2 nailed the mechanics and had good level design. The bosses, however, were very disappointing (aside from Tiny Tiger's reveal but beating him was shit)

Crash 1 has the best level designs and variation in themes. From exploring the beautiful rivers, to traversing a decrept old bridge, to investigating Pinstripe and Cortex's power plants, the level designs were incredible. The mechanics are much simpler, which isn't a bad thing. In comparison to 2 and 3, however, they were more restrictive.

Crash 3 had pretty average themes (egypt and arabia were not unique and were also pretty similar and the dinosaur theme was just plain with very little in terms of scenery or obstacles). The gimmick levels (especially the jetski ones which were plain torture) were average at best. It had the best boss fights by far.
>>
>>337334050
Perhaps you don't NEED to use them, but the game heavily encourages it, and you can't get all the boxes of the last cluster of levels without using the bazooka. That's what I remember: running around, spinning the shit about of everything, then noticing a small "!" box hovering in mid air somewhere in the distance, having to stop, take the bazooka out, navigate the crosshair to the box's location, fire, then continue with the game. Thanks Naughty Gods.
>>
>>337334123
The bazooka is great to destroy Nitro and TNT boxes without risks.
>>
>>337334183
They aren't at all, anon. I've beaten the whole game without using powerups (aside from the fast running one for the relics). You never need to use the extended spin, spiral slam or bazooka at all. Maybe the double jump, but I can't recall.
>>
>Crash 1
Solid base for a platformer
Variety with animal riding, darkness, 2.5D levels
Uninspired bosses
>Crash 2
Refines every good quality from Crash1
Better hub
Varied bosses
Better designed level themes

>Crash 3
Adding useless crap for the sake of a sequel
Fucking motorbike races

Mandatory time trials for 105%

Crash3 was the weakest.
It was drawing a moustache onto the Mona Lisa.
>>
>>337334287
It's also invaluable for certain stages and death routes, being able to pick off the ladies that throw molotovs in the arabia levels was great.
I feel like the main complaint is "it's slow." Here I thought that was kind of the point, and why you might not want to use it unless you know you can.
>>
>>337334261
I've never once pullet out the zooka in my 104% playthrough. You can get everything using double jump, im pretty sure. You're right that it's 'encouraged' for more casual players who can't think of the usual means of reaching hard spots. I don't mean that as an insult.
>>
>>337334305
Yeah you can beat the whole game without powerups easy but
Fuck, just reread my post
>>
>>337334507
I did reread it. You said

>Some bonus rooms require you use the powerups
>If you're aiming to get all the gems they're mandatory to use

They aren't mandatory. I'm arguing directly against this notion.
>>
These threads just make me want a reboot even more. So many feels I just want to be a child again for fucks sake.
>>
>>337334574
I thought some bonus rooms forced you to use powerups (extended spin, body slam) to get through and break all the crates
Am I really remembering it wrong? Fuck
>>
>>337334438
It's slow for balance. Here you have an amazing powerful ability. If you were able to shoot faster, it would be broken and unbalanced. By slowing it down, they basically balanced it.

It's game design 101 and Crash is king of game design. Man, I miss old Naughty Dog. This is what makes a videogame good, not graphics and "mature" stories.
>>
>>337334708
There's ONE bonus room in one of the future levels that makes you do a double jump and then a spin to finish it, if I'm remembering right.
The crazy thing about it is, though, that is the only time that combo is demanded of you, in a totally safe area where if you die it's fine.
In the same level, I believe, there's a spinner on the floor that boosts you up and makes you do the super spin without any input, it's really weird.

>>337334712
It being slow and a little tricky to aim also makes it cooler to pull off trick shots. Shooting the guy dropping blocks in the Egypt levels while ON one of those blocks is satisfying as heck.

Crash 3 is like Mario Sunshine.

The original trilogy games are all awesome.
All 3D Mario are awesome.
Both 3 and Sunshine just happen to be the weakest in a series of amazing games. That doesn't mean they are bad games, at all. Just the weakest entry.

Crash had way too many gimmick levels. The only gimmick levels that are tight as shit are the ones where you run trough a level with a tiger, basically the one that was also fun in 2 with the baby ice bear. Every other gimmick level in Crash is absolute shit except for swimming, which is only mediocre.

But bike, jetski, plane and jetpack are absolute shit.
