Crash and Spyro were never good. I never once saw their series being mentioned on Zig Forums before 2010, it was completely forgotten (Sonic Adventure and Mario 64 were always talked about here).
It’s funny how when the born-in-1995 crowd turned 15, suddenly Zig Forums was polluted with discussion about C-tier platforming mascots like Crash and Spyro. Just shows interest in those games is purely driven by childhood nostalgia and not quality.
So do you hate these franchises because people liked them growing up and you missed out or is it jealousy?
true
this is still a pointless dumb thread, though
>mario good
>crash bad
>random shovelware I played as a child is better than a medium defining classic because I am the centre of the universe and should never have to reevaluate my idiotic beliefs and tastes

Not him, but this is well crafted bait. The JRPG image seals it.
both are good
poor zoomer
spyro was good for its level designs and art direction. Spyro 1 is soul exemplified.
people like this unironically think playing gook game makes them intelligent. that's how you know how basic they are.
I think Crash 1 is a decent though pretty simplistic platform.
I tried Crash 2 and honestly I got sick of it almost immediately when the game started forcing me down into combat pits, what were they thinking? Maybe I'm just autistic but it breaks the flow hard.
Haven't touched any Spyro game. Well I think I rented one of the PS2 games once? Don't remember anything about it.
Crash Warped was great.

>combat pits
You know you can jump over those right and theres like 2-5 moles and it happens in 2 levels?
The real redpill is that spyro and crash were only good after the shitty ps1 games.
I was a Spyro kid but also played Crash. Comparing other platformers at the time, I'll say that Gex was rougher than those two and Croc especially was trash. If you think Crash and Spyro are bad, you don't want to play the other PS1 platformers.
>only zoomers do this
In 2010 those franchises were at the fucking bottom of the barrel and washed up. The originals have always been popular and critically acclaimed, Crash helped put the PS1 on the fucking map and completely overtook Sonics place as Mario's main competitor during the 5th generation.
I'm curious what platformer franchises you think are more notable than those two that aren't Sonic or made by Nintendo. They're the breakout hits of Sony's two flagship first party studios.
They are both fantastic games that were abandoned because greed infected the video game industry in the same way it has others. Celebrating that is just proof that you don't care about video games at all, only about the highly specific ones you personally enjoy. Which for all we know, is a literal handful of titles. You are a bad baiter or just a very shitty person that pretends to care about video games. One or the other, you are not welcome by the very few here that still care deeply about the hobby and what it can illustrate when crafted carefully and with passion. Eat a dick, sir.
I was about to make fun of you for posting this stale meme but then I remembered it's 2020 and we're lucky to see anything that isn't a wojak edit
>people on Zig Forums
>caring about video games
Nice try chump.
good post
Crash legitimately was and still is a good platformer. Spyro was for babies and replaying the HD remake recently, still is.
Well said, but these are just really stale bait threads the past couple of months.
Add gigachads and frogs to that.
suck my dick

Several untrue points here OP but I feel your anger.
>I never once saw their series being mentioned on Zig Forums before 2010
Probably because you weren't here before 2010
>random shovelware
>Crash and Spyro
OK, so this thread is just shitposting then
i almost feel like commissioning this guy for art
>I got sick of it almost immediately when the game started forcing me down into combat pits
Did you seriously drop the game in the first half hour or some shit
I can count how many times that happens on less than one hand
Both games are still better than Sonic adventure
The Adventure games is the exact moment when the Sonic franchise went downhill
>Croc was trash
Was not, your brain just couldn't handle the controls.
Rayman 2 was good
Spider was quirky
Pandemonium 2 was forgettable
