I was bored and was looking for franchises/games to play that I've missed out on so far. I've never played the Crash Bandicoot nor the Spyro games so I decided to give the Crash series a go. They're pretty short games, each title is composed of 25 bite sized levels or so.
Crash 1 - the most frustrating and difficult of the bunch. The majority of my deaths were a result of failing to perfectly account for your footing. Many of the levels have you moving forward, and it's often vague just how far you need to jump or judge gaps. There was one level so bad that it milked my dozen extra lives or so.
Crash 2 - more enjoyable than the first, but this is where it becomes a lot more casual. Frustration with the level design was much, much lower, and the difficulty was lowered as well.
Crash 3 - this one introduces some vehicular levels that are pretty ass (one nautical, one aviary, one on motorbikes, all pale in comparison to the base levels). This one felt like it was the easiest of the trio but featured more level variety and better boss fights.
Crash 4 - I just started this reboot and it's an absolute blast. it doesn't feature the bullshit level design from the first game, while adding some sweet new mechanics that add some nice spice to the general game flow. It looks gorgeous, handles well, and sounds great. Toys for Bob really knocked it out of the park with this reboot. I'm just finished with the first "world" so I'm super excited to keep on playing and most likely finishing it tomorrow.
