My first type of longer form content so bare with me. I have More Crash Retrospectives coming Apologies for some of the editing, my editing software crashed on me!

Dude...Space Bash. EVERYONE loves Space Bash. Every time I play this game with my siblings, Space Bash is among the first levels we play. And we have a blast every time.

This was the hardest Crash Bandicoot game to complete at that time.

Playing as Crash/Coco in Space Bash's crystal challenge is probably the biggest highlight for me.

Good video, watched all of it. You've understated how difficult it is to 200% this game, platinum relics crank up the AI to ultra hard level. I was never able to get more than a couple plat relics as a kid, but glad I didn't miss out of any unlocks.

toxic dash blows but man that song still plays in my head when just doing anything. that organ goes hard and i love it for it

So here are some fun facts hidden from the player about this game (thanks to the debug menu found in early copies). The characters all have hidden stats the game never tells you, for example... you can adjust the AI movement speed in the crate, medieval and dash levels, the damage counter in the tank and crate levels, their weight in the polar levels, the AI targeting system - set to target the player more - and a difficulty rank, ranking from 0 to 20. The one used for hard is 15 but in Adventure Mode for relics, it's between 19 to 20. Though some crystals are so ridiculously hard they put the difficulty below 10 such as Pogo Padlock, lol. They made the AI proudly cheat in this game except in the Ball levels, besides the ridiculous crystal stipulations it all comes down to skill.

I was like bruh no way you can tell me anything new about this game... well, shit. I never knew about the tie-breaker round lol

I didn’t know about that extra levels after you beat the game!! Those levels look so dope!! 🔥

One of my favorite games every growing up

Awesome video! Never got to play Crash Bash but I’ve seen enough to know it’s very unforgiving :)

Me and my dad used to always play this and twisted metal 3 with eachother when I was like 4 lol, great times

Yo, thanks for covering Crash Bash, specially in the way I "kinda" see it It has so potential, and it was fun. But man, the frustation and the pain was real. For me this is the worst case scenario, you can hate bad games, love good games, but this is a game that you like and dream to be better.

KZfaq Needs more Crash Retrospectives good job!

I’ve loved Crash from the beginning!! Great content MRoy.

The announcers loud deep voice always shook my crt tv lol

I think the Crash Bandicoot Series has ended with Crash Bash. And started back again with N-Sane Trilogy.

I wish for this game a remake

i remember being a kid and and putting HOURS into this game , playing it both solo and two player was fun for me i used to spend a lot of time with my 2 cousins and all 3 of us loved this game, but we didnt have ( and even werent aware of ) that boomerang thingy that is used to play with more than 2 players at the time, so all the time we were competing , two of us would play and then the loser of the match would give his controller to the one who wasnt playing, and because of being able to win more in order to play more we mastered the game and all the time we would argue who is better at the game, i know it just rehashes the existing mini games but when you ABSOLUTELY LOVE those mini games instead of being bored you actually become excited to play it with a different flavor, this game alongside crash team racing was a HUGE part of our childhood and because of that i will never stop loving crash bash thank you for doing this game justice 👍

Another great video! I actually really liked crash bash as a kid, now as I'm older I understand how repetitive it is, the fact that most of the levels were locked from the start annoyed me as a kid. My brother and I did a two player playthrough of adventure mode back in the day (choosing Brio for me & Cortex for him) and we had the evil ending, it was pretty cool to see how evil could actually win. There isn't enough crash bash content online, I recall maybe Caddicarus's old video review on it & Tharixers speedrun on Crash Bash, good to see more Crash Bash content!

This is my fav game 😍😍😍😍 co-op is so fun🏆😊

I still play this with friends... It's coming out soon again for a house warming! 20 years strong. I'm known for spamming cortex's laugh taunt whenever I can. First loser takes a drink.

I loved it through and through. It was like Rubik's cube that was played and solved by everyone in the house. And yeah, I was able to play the co-op with my sister and uncle, but mostly uncle. All the super secret levels were such a spicy add-ins that they really made the road to the 200% worth it.

I remember this game!!! I think I still have my ps1 copy, I just never actually finished it bc I sucked (and still suck) at video games 😅 my brain just said ‘oooooh CRASH!!!!’ And I kept playing. I was the same way with Spyro lmao excellent video! You definitely earned a sub here! Keep up the awesome work!

i replayed this game with my friend and we had a blast despite the repetitiveness of the levels. forgot all about the secret warp room!

Awesome review my friend! Editing issues aside, it was a good watch! You've earned my sub

I played this with my brother a lot, I actually thought it was from Naughty Dog, cus it felt so similar to the ones before it.

If you're curious, there's actually a WIP fan remake of this called Crash Bash Live. It should be getting an update sometime soon, but what is there is pretty interesting, and it's alot more than just a 1 to 1 remake of the game.

Hard as balls to beat adventure mode, even with a friend

I love crash’s chicken dance

Space bash was great. When I was kid, I tried to get as far as I could in coop, playing solo. Got as far as Sky Balls.

title response: oh you couldn't be more mistaken, there's no way I'm forgetting bash💀

I still remember the first time I played Dot Dash. I laughed so hard because of the play And since then, it becomes my top 3 gameplay. After Ball and Bash levels

Dude my favorite streamer is playing a fan remake of this game. The characters are kinda weird but it has new stages, new characters, and a lot of interesting changes.

This game is a masterpiece and I i will die on this hill.

I remember beating the last boss, but not the bonus levels. Guess i gave up collecting all items

haven't watched the video yet, but responding to the title.. Yes I do, I think about this game more than i think about the Roman Empire.

If I were to remake BASH, I would focus on tackling the lengthy/repetitive gameplay the most and implement the following for adventure mode (in multiplayer, you will be able to customize it however you want): (A) 1 min round time rather than 1.5, (B) two consecutive win streak needed to get the trophy (and remove both gold and platinum relics, because this requirement comrbines both), (C) for challenges that aren't time based, like the balls, I would reduce your starting ball count. I would also allow you to complete story mode alone, if the second player decided to stop half-way through. This way, you won't have to repeat the whole levels you've already beaten. Add more challenges and characters. Implement modifications to boring smash levels (such as the drain dash). And of course, better controls for racing levels. Color customization option for the balloon challenge (being color blind, it was impossible for me to distinguish yellow and green balloons). Graphic upgrades, obviously, more elaborative and longer cutscenes. And an optional auto-save. And online multiplayer mode that is not required for trophy collectors.

CrashBash is 100% better as a co-op game than it is a party game. It was mislabeled.

I can tell you that the 200%, especially with any Bandicoots is Bandihard. Speedrunners do take the muscle heads Koala Kong or Tiny Tiger as they are the Easiest characters to play as. The N. Duo (Cortex and Brio) are both the equivalent of Normal difficulty. Like I said for the Bandicoots, they are hard to play, but I did said 200% with Coco. As for Dingodile/Rilla Roo, They are the Jack-of-all trades master of none (AKA "joatmon") that aren't good anywhere (and are sometimes WORSE than the bandicoots) Also, the 200% completion doesn't help the fact that CPUs also hit harder than normal (the same crate thrown by Koala Kong would deal about 15% more dmg, or CPUs having more optimized "plays")

21:00 I never understood why people always struggled with this mini-game type. I always found it to be one of the easiest ones.

Yeah that’s why I have it in my collection…

I really enjoyed this game

I remember playing Adventure Mode and never finishing it because it got so repetitive. It was frustrating that so much content in a party game was locked away. Hence, when I had friends over and we wanted to play a 4-player party game, we tended to play Bishi Bashi Special over this. BBS had all of it's minigames available from the start.

I never fully competed this game, it took years for me to be able to get everything that was required to unlock the stages of Warp Room 5, as much as I loved the game it definitely didn't come without its frustrations, not only the repetitiveness but I couldn't agree more on the Crash Dash stages, the only set of stages where each game is completely different is the Medieval Mayhem set, once I unlocked all the stages I gave up trying to get everything but I knew I wasn't missing anything following that

Had no idea there were extra scenes for mixed alignment, thought I knew everything about Crash back then. But I suppose if there was anywhere they could successfully hide something, it would be behind friggin' co-op.

I'd rather not remember at all lol, that adventure mode left me with a broken controller and an angry mom after I asked her to buy me a new one.

Bash definitely doesn't deserve a remake, Rumble seems like its gonna actually be fun xD

Gaming was just better back in the day. Games every year that were bangers from the same company even. Now ur lucky to get a 5 year gap between games.

I never forgot this game personally was always one of my favourites i remember as it reminded me of games like mario party on the N64 at the time and i didnt have my own N64 so this was a good replacement for me. Although i notice its a pretty flawed game at times now im older if anyone has seen Caddicarus 200% run of it youll see.

Crash bash was good game to bad they didn’t want to remake or remastered like n sane trilogy and ctrnf to as well second we won’t be getting no more remakes 😒

There’s actually 201%

2:38p.m. 5/23/2023

played it back in 2002, fun game but got boring after awhile

i do remaber

is crash bash remake it fan game

nintendo cuck not noticing better minigames smh

Crash Bash is a game that I stopped enjoying. The AI is horrible, which zapped the fun out of the game. Adventure mode just tried to be something it's not. I say this game shouldn't be remade, but rather, have the minigames as unlockable bonus content in a future Crash game. Similar to how you unlocked minigames in Super Mario 64 DS.

"Did they succeed? Well, not completely"....Because being in the top 40 most sold games on the best available console is such a failure. So sad Eurocom didn't do a good game like Bubsy 3D. Dude, it clearly is long and repetitive, but just play Snow Go, Snow Biz and Crash Dash, or Hang Em High, High time and Flamming Passion, to see the most sold and loved Crash games are the same...even worse! They are all about breaking boxes and running between enemies.

I was never able to get 200% on this game, as a kid or adult. Just way too much of a tall order. The platinum relics are so absurdly difficult. Closest I got was 186%
