As the title character Crash a bandicoot is a ratlike Australian marsupial , you must clear 30 greatly varying levels. From the jungle to the ancient ruins to Cortex's mechanized lair, Crash's gameplay is familiar territory. Other than a one-level ride on the back of a boar, the action's all jumping and spinning attacks. The levels get continually tougher, but numerous free lives are found in plain sight of your path and are also earned in bonus rounds.
In order to uncover all of the game, players will need to complete the levels without dying and by smashing all the crates. The game subsequently rewards you with colored gems that act as stairways to hidden areas found in the previous levels. Undoubtedly Crash will have mass appeal, but the game isn't perfect. Trying to judge distances from the mostly static view behind Crash is one of the game's main flaws.
Crash also lacks some of the diversity and innovative next-gen qualities found in Sega's Nights and Nintendo's Mario This is most evident with Crash's boss characters whose patterns are easy to recognize. Overall, Crash's lighthearted, wacky tone and brilliant eye-candy will have players bounding over obstacles and crushing crates for days on end.
PlayStation platform fans should make like a bandit for this Bandicoot. Lush, clean, colorful textures provide the most stunning scenery in a bit game to date. Some polygonal enemies are tame-looking, but effects like steam and Ore set new visual standards. Crash's death animations lend a Warner Brothers flair. Excellent sound effects include the splash of Crash falling in the water and the shriek and flutter of bats. The characters have little to say, however, and the subtle, unintru-sive music may come off as silly to some.
With only a spin attack and a jump, Crash's controls are simple. The tight directional-pad control borders on hyper-sensitive-which is necessary to navigate the more difficult 3D environments. Although the gameplay Isnt revolutionary, the cool look of each new level drives you onward. This pretty platform game proves the PlayStation can deliver a smooth, enjoyable 3D adventure. If this marsupial with an attitude is to the PlayStation what Sonic and Mario were to the Genesis and SNES, we'll all be adding "bandicoot" to our video-game vocabularies.
Crash Bandicoot, an orange, rat-like marsupial, could possibly change all that. The game smacks a little of Sonic. There's an evil doc, Dr.
Neo Cortex, who wants to rule the world, and a girlfriend named Tawna who needs rescuing. Universal Interactive intends to have 30 levels of gameplay replete with bonus rooms and hidden items a la Donkey Kong Country. Game development is only at the halfway point, but graphically Crash has the early looks of a winner.
Crash and his cohorts jump off the screen at you in fully rendered 3D animation. The game's theme music and sound effects weren't available for previewing, but reportedly the effects are being created by movie-effects editors. It looks like Crash could have all the bells and whistles necessary to make him the PlayStation mascot-now we just need to wait for the gameplay.
After finally scoring some hands-on gaming time with the much-ballyhooed Crash Bandicoot, we feel safe in saying that this cool game is worth getting excited about.
While it doesn't revolutionize platform gaming, Crash does offer some cool new twists, such as 3D levels where you run into or away from the foreground. You face tough jumps, pincer-clawed crabs, rolling gates, skunks, snapping plants, and boulders hot on your tail a la Indiana Jones. Crash tackles these obstacles with a jump, a Taz-like spin move, and a repertoire of humorous expressions and animations.
Tropical graphics make for a colorful eyeful. It started as just another cute action game. Little did anybody know that once the expert producers at Universal Interactive Studios started to tweak the raw program that another ho-hum mascot-type game would turn out to be perhaps the hottest new product of the year.
All that extra effort didn't go unnoticed by Sony. After seeing the preliminary info on the game, they immediately fell in love with both the character and the game. So much, in fact, that Sony states that they have decided to make Crash their official mascot.
But what about the game? Is it really that good? Our editors got a sample of it at ECTS in London and their overall impression was extremely favorable. It takes place on a three-island chain off the southeast coast of Australia, where a mad scientist Dr.
Neo Cortex with the help of Dr. Brio decided to brainwash the animals on the island to be in their army which will take over the world. As expected it doesn't go right and the animals go mad. One animal is Crash who gets thrown off the island and ends up two islands away. He must find his way back and save his girlfriend Tawna, who is next in line for the experiment.
There will be over 30 levels of gameplay with solid control in all three directions. Crash has a Spin Attack which he will use to get rid of the enemies he encounters.
If he gathers enough Yin-Yang-Yuk medals, he gets to go to the bonus room. Also, the various bonus fruits will give him special powers Finally, if he joins forces with.
Aku Aku--the wise village witch doctor--Crash will be able to get helpful advice and a magical orb which will protect him from one hit. Sony is still being quite secretive about the game, so stay tuned until next month when there's more info. Since our exclusive April preview, the most significant development with Crash Bandicoot is that Sony bought the rights to this title from Universal Interactive, which all but guarantees Crash's impending job as the PlayStation mascot.
And like other mascots, Crash is on a quest to save his girlfriend Tawna from an evil doctor Dr. Neo Cortex as he travels through three islands, using jumping and spin attacks to fend off enemies. But Crash's most impressive features are hard to grasp from static pictures in a magazine: This game has smooth cameras that automatically switch views on the fly, slapstick cartoon-quality sound effects, and superb animation.
May you be struck by lightning if you think for an instant that Crash Bandicoot is some sort of mascot. He's not, he's an Australian rodent with a penchant for fine wines and good furniture. He's also the star of the latest and, indeed, first offering from a brand new alliance between Sony and Universal Interactive, the company who brought you the rather unfortunate 3DO Jurassic Park.
It seems however, that Universal has come a long way since those dinosaur days on 3DO. The Graphics in this game are, well, stupendous. So good, in fact, that Sony has opened the corporate umbrella and taken Crash on board.
The PlayStation badly needs a decent 3D platform game. Jumping Flash is awesome, but it's getting on a bit now. Sega is hard at work with "Nights" and Nintendo is all set to unveil the bit incarnation of Mario. Crash borrows heavily from every other platform game you've ever seen, but its unique 3D perspective lends it a charm you don't often see. The gameplay is predictable run-and-jump stuff, but with enough hidden goodies and features to keep you fascinated and addicted. Crash is gorgeous and it's going to be huge.
