What are your honest thoughts on this creature?

I've been getting addicted to watching Crash Bash speedruns (Don't judge me) so I decided to dig it out and give it another go. It's one of those games that are very flawed but I love anyway. Though the AI can be bullshit and some of the crystal challenges are absolute cancer like Sky Balls. There should also be only one set of relics holy shit.

But I still like it, and I love the shitty stock sounds they used for the characters. The pain sounds are hilarious and the announcer is great. Brio's WUHUHU WUHAHA uWu is the best taunt in vidya history.

I've had unquantifiable amount of fun with the future bash minigame alone. It's good.

terrible use of the characters, no one would've remembered that turd if it wasn't for brand.

It was shit but as a kid I was just happy to play a crash game (didn't have any growing up)
The polar panic game is legitimately fun. The rest is trash and the pogo one is pure autism

I like to play the combat one where you throw crates at each other.

I noticed a bunch of stock sounds in Sonic Adventure. It's weird how the mind can recognize stuff like that.

When they carbon-copied MK64/DKR they managed to create the peak of the kart racing genre, so this was worth a shot 2bh. It fell really short sadly

I had tons of fun playing it and most of the games are fairer than other rng-riddled party games (as in, RNG elements appear and you get to actually react to them and still win most of the time), but in retrospect the unlocking progression would probably have been bullshit to anyone I'd ever get to sit and play it with.

This was one of the best games to play if you had a sibling. My sister and i never got a perfect game because of that damn swamp level, but i have fond memories of going through the stages with her.

i love this game even tho alot of people consider it dog shit but the music is fuckin dope and the character models are perfect. i like pogo a gogo,polar panic, the 4 player pong, and pogo painter a lot. same with the hub. i feel that it only fell short in the aspect of not having a board mode and some games are dogshit but otherwise, the presentation IMO is 10/10 for a crash game.

You could tell is was no Naughty Dog game, but still a lot of fun, unless you were playing on your own

I loved it as a kid. I haven't touched it since so I can't say for certain whether it's good or not.

A few fun weekends with the family, but for us it was always CTR, Hot Wheels TURBO RACING, GT1, and Streak.

that's the right attitude to have
the battle for whether a game is really good or not is often fought between vague memories of children having fun 20 years ago and snarky manchildren who just found out the game existed yesterday and need to tell youtube about it's existence

Wish I could be playing this in an online hub or something. I loved this game, my fav minigame is the ricochet/pinball cars one

Best experienced with a multitap. The polar panic type games are the best. Also, there's a Spyro 3 demo on this game accessible with a cheat code, and vice versa. If you're playing a demo version, you can also enter a cheat code to access a cheat menu where you can adjust all sorts of parameters, and skip to any level in the game.

I like the stages where you're pushing people off the ice while riding on top of a polar bear.

When I think of annoying game music that has been seared directly into my brain from overexposure, I think of Crash Bash's load screen music

off topic but are any of the ps2 crash games worth playing? thinking about playing wrath of cortex and nitro kart but the others looks terrible

>> No.8700436

woc is trash
twinsanity is trash but it's easier to convince yourself that it's just a flawed game that could have been good
Nitro Kart is kind of overhated by CTR purists it's an alright kart racer
Tag Team Racing is not an alright kart racer but some people think the on foot hub world is fun
I have no fucking clue about any of those edgy reboot games I checked out completely by the time those came out.

ill probbaly give woc and nitro kart a go since woc looks like a crash game and i loved ctr so much. the other ones look terrible

Be warned. It's literally just a shittier version of Warped with almost all the personality lobotomized out.

I played Tag Team Racing and two other games where you ride monsters or some shit. I like games with this mechanic where you can take control of enemy creatures so I had some fun with them but I can never differentiate between the two and I can't remember anything about them at all despite having played them only a few years ago so that's gotta tell you something.

This is a great game too btw. They should have had 2 more for it

Great game. Spent untold hours playing it with my friend down the block trying to complete all the challenges.

Woc is alright, but the loading screens take an eternity. Even when it first came out and was the best thing for the PS2, playing it was almost unbearable because the levels took forever to load.
