Just ordered a copy of this bad boy off of eBay. I've never played the game and know almost nothing about it, but I took a chance after hearing so many good things about it. What am I in for? How does the gameplay compare to something like Banjo other than being more linear? How does it compare to later entries in the series?

Fun game, but for real. It's 2017, why did you buy this off ebay? You can download an emulator and the ISO for the game in less than 5 minutes.

Because I enjoy gaming as a hobby, and part of that enjoyment comes from collecting old school games and playing them in the way they were intended, lower-quality graphics and all.

Fair enough I suppose. Just saying you could have saved some time on waiting for it to come in, and some coin.

It's a great game though. Challenging, but not unfair. There's 1 level that can kind of be a pain in the ass late in the game, but it's still a blast.
>>
>>386426587
It's aged worse than Super Mario 64, that's for sure. When you take away the 1996 novelty of "whoa it's 3d and I'm running away from the camera!" it's kind of bland.

Don't get me wrong, I totally acknowledge the futility of purchasing older games when I can simply run them via emulator for free, and with improved graphics, but I just enjoy having the physical items, looking at the box art, feeling the "history" of each game and thinking "I wonder who owned this, I wonder where they are now?". It's sort of magical for me. Also, I think that even though older games might technically look better via emulator, they sometimes honestly look worse because the imperfections are more apparent instead of being partially hidden by the fuzziness of a good old CRT and the limitations of old consoles.

I like a challenge, sounds good.

From what little I've seen of the gameplay this seems to be an accurate assessment, but I'm hoping for the best anyway. SM64 has definitely aged better than most, both visually and otherwise, but this game does look pretty beautiful.

You have a PS4 remake of the game that is objectively better than the originals in every way, and you still decide to be retarded and buy the classic game when you could literally just emulate it instead? The fuck is wrong with you?
>>
>>386429000
the remakes arent better its literally the same gameplay but with gayer looking graphics.

I don't own a PS4 and I like to play the original games rather than a cobbled together rehash that is going to be all-together different from the original. I know this concept might be too much for you to understand, but some people actually like to... *gasp* collect things. No, not everyone that invests money in classic cars, antiques, or retro video games is "being retarded". Getting to play the original game and owning a physical copy brings me joy for a variety of reasons, clearly the only thing that brings you joy is being a cunt. I feel bad that you are incapable of understanding how someone could enjoy an actual hobby.
>>
>>386426587

It's simple, fun, and challenging. It's probably the purest a platformer can be. The sequels expand upon the moveset and level variety. Definitely pick up 2 and 3 at some point.

We got us a retard over here.

Honestly it's pretty mediocre. Very easy for the most part. The save system is pretty retarded.

Yeah, you. You are literally too mentally simple to understand that there's a certain joy to collecting old things and that playing it is only part of the experience. Crooked sperms like you are the cancer of the world. Everything is cut and dry and anything that has the slightest monicum of soul or charm is "retarded". Go back to playing Clash of Clans on your phone faggot child, it has "better graphics" than silly old retro games.

So you admit that your hobby isn't actually playing video games, it's cluttering your living space with bulky junk you'll play for a single day and then never touch again. Go back to /toy/ faggot.

My hobby is enjoying what I buy. Again, I'm sorry that you are too stupid to understand the concept of why somebody would like to own retro games. You are clearly a product of the autism generation, and I really don't expect you to understand. It honestly makes perfect sense to me, given that you have been culturally indoctrinated from birth to be a soulless robot with the imagination and creative capacity of a cashew. However, with that being said, I'm afraid I can't indulge you any further. I do truly hope you find something which can actually bring you enjoyment in life.

Back on topic, what is the best game of the three? I hear a lot of people say that 2 is the best and that 1 has a pretty steep difficulty curve. Also, are there any kind of powerups in these games?

Man you really take this malaysian keygen programming forum seriously, don'tcha pal?
>>
>>386430042
I like 3 the best personally. 2 was pretty good but I didn't like some of the levels as much. 1 has the best art style though imo.
>>
>>386429953
Maybe you should go play those games you're collecting instead of shitposting on /v/ like always, they could probably use a good dusting by now anyways.
>>
>>386430042

3 has upgrades you get over the course of the game, but the only true powerup in the series are the masks, where collecting enough of them gives you the Star effect from Mario.
>>
>>386430134
Eh, not really. I actually only own about 50 games in total. I'm extremely picky and only buy games that I hear really good things about and that I think will give me a lot of long-lasting enjoyment.

>>386430135
Interesting, I was wondering about the mask guy. I guess the mask dude acts as something of a guide as well, or just purely a powerup?

hahaha look how hard this retard is trying to get a rise out of him. just think, right now, some sad smelly faggot is sitting in his mommys basement trying to start shit over a crash bandicoot thread. thats literally your life bro lmao. maybe OP is just an innocent autistic and doesnt realize your trying to get a rise out of him in the first place but this is pretty pathetic man. just enjoy the games and stop being a miserable cunt.
>>
>>386430239

The mask dude takes hits for you, and getting more of them lets you take more hits.

Ahh gotcha. So what would you say are the defining features of the game? Is there anything cool you can do that is pretty unique to the series?
>>
>>386430603

Crash's uniqueness stems from its straightforward level design, yet still having room for secret routes and over cool stuff, making these game a joy to 100%. The game's always throwing new stuff at you and the moment-to-moment gameplay is fun and challenging. It's a platformer through-and-through, though 3 shakes it up with vehicle sections. Overall a wonderful time if you like platforming.

A man of taste I see. I feel ya on that whole used copy thing. Last year I bought a copy of Super Metroid and it had some dudes old save on it. It felt wrong deleting his save so I left it how it was.
