Crash Bandicoot was THE SHIT.

My favorite boss from Warped is N.Gin. It was hard and satisfying.

Holy hell, took me forever to beat him.

Is N. Gin a dude or a woman? To this day I'm not sure.

Not sure, pretty sure he's a dude.

Pretty sure N.Gin's male. Though between the appearance and the way the voice is it can be a bit confusing

Just a matter of timing and positioning from what I've seen. It's not the intended way to do so or anything, but if you do the spin, slide, spin, and belly flop with the right timing it's possible. Video that's from goes on for at least 45 seconds or so of a bunch of failed attempts until he succeeds, but it still looks pretty hard to get right.

You can also apparently time a jump off a seal and get it that way too, but again, not the intentional way.

What was the 'intended' way?

There's a hidden warp to the upper part of the level in one of the levels in the second hub (one of the river ones with the jet board, if memory serves). Basically you go through the upper area of the level (lots of nitro and Aku-Aku masks too and fall down onto the gem, and the main level, from above.

For a platformer, these games have some surprisingly extensive plot.

On Crash 2 do you HAVE to save to a memory card to go to the next hub world? My wife seems to think so but I don't want to have to delete saves from my virtual memory card/change it I just want her to use save states.

She says you go the load/save door to get the option to advance.

no, you step on the circle in the middle of the hub room and press up
