Oh my GOD what a game. Who in their right mind allowed Cory Barlog to follow through with this vision of the whole game being a ONER? Intense, fast and frenetic gameplay. Satisfying puzzle design and dungeon exploration reminiscent of the best days of Zelda. And a one-of-a-kind narrative with an immense amount of gravity. Loved it - but the map and the compass suck, and the post-game content is frustrating.
Some of the most innovative, hilarious, and most technologically profound cinematics of all time, at the time of its release. Its narrative had me by the balls.
Unfortunately, the gameplay was equally absurd, in how frustrating it felt. Sometimes, FPS games just don't have that weight. It doesn't feel like you're hitting what you're shooting at. And as this game went deeper, it also became more shallow.

You ask true fans of this game what they think of it, and they basically just drop the ground and have a seizure trying to explain themselves.
I wish I'd connected with it in the same way. I found it fun, but I don't think I mined the depths of its bizarre storytelling capabilities, or its willingness to philosophize with my dumb ass.
I'd like to say I'll go back to it some day, but I probably won't. I consider it a missed opportunity, though, and not a bad game.

I just love Crash. It is so charming and well designed, the platforming is so tight and hilarious, yet unforgiving. It's incredible just how good of a time you can have with this game, versus how easily you can shatter your own eardrums with screams of nerd rage if you decide to attempt the various challenges and time trials it's got lined up for you.
