OPM 37 Trailer

  • The HUD shown in the trailer has different fonts and icons, many of which come from Crash Bandicoot 3 (except N. Brio).
  • The game uses a different font.
  • The health bar is different.
  • The chunks that fly off when a blocky crate hits something are simple sprites, whereas they're 3D animated polygons in the final version.
  • The character has a spin animation when hit in the Pogo minigame.
  • One of the characters lost a life. Rather than this being represented through a small, fairy-like ghost, it's a weird, much larger ghost.
  • Drain Bash used to have a wobbling lamp hanging from the ceiling. The lightbulb would flash all the time.
  • The trophy stats at the end of each round were shown differently. A trophy would appear on screen for every victory the winning character's had (the current trophy also flashed yellow), so the trophy list was shown a bit differently: the trophies for each character were listed under their respective icons. The trophy list would always appear with a little fanfare that is unused in the final version.
  • The Pogo minigame kept all characters on-screen after each round.
  • Koala Kong (presumably) wasn't added yet, as he was never seen in minigames during the trailer.

E3 Prototype

Video 1

  • Breaking a purple crate in Pogo levels don't show up the player's score.
  • Koala Kong's silver trophy is blinking due to a glitch. Later in the video, Coco's silver trophy is also blinking in Desert Fox. It seems this bug always happens to the 4th player.
  • Land mines have a very different design.

Video 2

  • The game logo is different.
  • Rilla Roo wasn't present in the game at this point.
  • The main menu doesn't have any options and the player only can choose between 7 characters.
  • PS1 buttons don't have an icon.
  • The loading screen is different.
  • The Warp Room is very different. There are no teleport option to other warp rooms or Load/Save neither boss level.
  • The player can access 6 different minigames: Jungle Bash, Polar Panic, Desert Fox, Pogo Painter, Space Bash and Tilt Panic.
  • Crash Ball and Pogo-A-Gogo are also present but inaccessible.
  • Minigames don't have a Rule screen.
  • Koala Kong doesn't have a taunt voice.
  • The Purple ! Crate in Pogo Painter doesn't show the player's score when broken.
  • Dingodile's tail in Polar levels is pointed up when idle.
  • Characters' boost bars are smaller in Polar levels.

E3 2000 Interview

This video has a mix of both early and E3 versions.

  • Dingodile has a different hit sound.
  • Explosive mines have a different model.
  • The timer in Desert Fox has a bug that doesn't show the '0', causing the game to show ':52' instead of '0:52'.
  • Cortex's shoot from his tank goes faster.
  • The hovercrafts are missing strip decals.
  • Power-up crates in Drain Bash drop purple chunks.
  • Wumpa fruits come out of nowhere.

Screenshots

Early Title Screen

  • Only Adventure and Battle modes are selectable options.
  • There are no descriptions.

Early CSS

  • The icon order is different in the first screenshot. Instead of separating the characters between Aku and Uka teams, it just separates them by type (i.e. Crash + Coco, Cortex + Brio, Tiny + Kong, Dingodile + Rilla Roo).
  • The 'P1' word is different, with another font, color and without being inside a purple square.
  • The second screenshot already shows the final icon order, but this time using 'Good' and 'Evil' words instead of Aku and Uka.

Early Warp Room

  • The first Warp Room lacks a lot of details like the floor cement or the jungle theme.
  • The minigame order is different (Jungle Bash and Crashball are switched).

Jungle Bash

  • TNT and Nitro crates have models from previous games.

Space Bash

Bash
  • Space Bash used to have one of the Cortex billboards from Crash Bandicoot 3's motorcycle levels in the background.

Ballistix

  • In the first screenshot, the HUD shows three digits.
  • The font is also different.
  • The hovercrafts are somewhat different from the final version.
  • The background from N. Ballism is different.
  • The ball limit for each character in N. Ballism is normally 20, but it shows limits that go as high as 25.

Polar Levels

Crash bash review
  • The game used the Kgs mass instead of Ibs.
  • Boost bars use a 'B' letter to represent the boost.

Pogo Levels

  • This looks like Pogo Painter, but with the Crystal Challenge background.
  • Characters' HUD have a paint color behind their icons.
  • The characters' paint color has the wrong order here.
  • You can see Wumpa fruits lying around, but Pogo minigames never have them since you don't get a health bar.
  • The arrow shown in the right side of the arena is cyan instead of purple.
  • The tile coloring worked slightly different - Crash's paint color is green, but he's standing on a red square.
  • All characters have pogo sticks, even the ones who normally use something else (such as N. Brio and his jet-pack).

Crash Bash is a party video game developed by Eurocom and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation. It is the fifth installment in the Crash Bandicoot series and the first Crash Bandicoot game not to be developed by Naughty Dog (who had left the series to develop the Jak and Daxter series), the last game released for the PlayStation console, and the first in the party genre.

Gameplay[edit]

A 'Polar Push' level in Crash Bash featuring Cortex, Coco, Tiny and Dingodile

Crash Bash is a party video game featuring eight playable characters with differing powers and skills.[1][2] The game's storyline involves a contest of good vs. evil held between the twin witch doctor spirits Aku Aku and Uka Uka.[3] The gameplay consists of 28 different mini-games and three distinct modes of play: 'Adventure', 'Battle' and 'Tournament'.[4]Crash Bash includes multiplayer compatibility for up to four human players with the use of the PlayStation Multitap.[5]

In the Adventure mode, one or two human players must win all 28 mini-games and retrieve trophies, gems and crystals by accomplishing certain challenges presented for each mini-game. The mini-games are accessed from a series of 'Warp Room' hub areas,[6] with the first Warp Room consisting of four mini-games.[4] A trophy is won by achieving victory in three rounds of any given mini-game, after which the player(s) can return to the mini-game and receive a gem or crystal by winning one round under special conditions. When a minimum number of trophies, gems and crystals have been won, the Warp Room's 'Boss Arena' becomes accessible, in which the player(s) must defeat a boss character by depleting his health. Winning a Warp Room's Boss Arena will grant entry to the next Warp Room. When the game's four Boss Arenas have been won, mini-game challenges become available in which the player(s) can win gold or platinum Relics by defeating advanced computer-controlled opponents. The Adventure mode is completed when all trophies, gems, crystals and relics have been won.[6]

The Battle mode is a quick match within any mini-game that has previously been won in the Adventure mode. The mini-games within this mode can be played as a free-for-all or in teams. In the Tournament mode, players compete in four consecutive mini-games and accumulate points; the player with the most points wins the tournament. In both the Battle and Tournament modes, the number of rounds needed to win a mini-game can be adjusted between two and seven, and the skill level of computer-controlled opponents can be adjusted between 'easy', 'medium' and 'hard'.[7]

Development[edit]

The game's audio was created by Steve Duckworth.[8]

Crash Bash received 'mixed or average' reviews, according to review aggregatorMetacritic.[9] Human Tornado of GamePro noted that the collection of minigames was built for four simultaneous players and added that the game was more fun with more people.[10] Shawn Sparks of Game Revolution praised the 'solid' graphics, number of minigames and 'great' multiplayer.[11] Doug Perry of IGN concluded that the game was unoriginal and shallow but worked as a 'social magnet amongst the geek elite'.[13]Ryan Davis of GameSpot described Crash Bash as rather dull and mediocre.[12]

Daniel Erickson reviewed the PlayStation version of the game for Next Generation, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that 'If you're planning on playing with two or fewer people, go ahead and mentally remove a star from the rating. Otherwise, get a big group together and enjoy.'[14]

Crash Bash received a 'Platinum' sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA),[15] indicating sales of at least 300,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[16]

    • Only Adventure and Battle modes are selectable options.
    • There are no descriptions.

    Early CSS

    • The icon order is different in the first screenshot. Instead of separating the characters between Aku and Uka teams, it just separates them by type (i.e. Crash + Coco, Cortex + Brio, Tiny + Kong, Dingodile + Rilla Roo).
    • The \'P1\' word is different, with another font, color and without being inside a purple square.
    • The second screenshot already shows the final icon order, but this time using \'Good\' and \'Evil\' words instead of Aku and Uka.

    Early Warp Room

    • The first Warp Room lacks a lot of details like the floor cement or the jungle theme.
    • The minigame order is different (Jungle Bash and Crashball are switched).

    Jungle Bash

    • TNT and Nitro crates have models from previous games.

    Space Bash

    \'Bash\'
    • Space Bash used to have one of the Cortex billboards from Crash Bandicoot 3\'s motorcycle levels in the background.

    Ballistix

    • In the first screenshot, the HUD shows three digits.
    • The font is also different.
    • The hovercrafts are somewhat different from the final version.
    • The background from N. Ballism is different.
    • The ball limit for each character in N. Ballism is normally 20, but it shows limits that go as high as 25.

    Polar Levels

    \'Crash
    • The game used the Kgs mass instead of Ibs.
    • Boost bars use a \'B' letter to represent the boost.

    Pogo Levels

    • This looks like Pogo Painter, but with the Crystal Challenge background.
    • Characters\' HUD have a paint color behind their icons.
    • The characters\' paint color has the wrong order here.
    • You can see Wumpa fruits lying around, but Pogo minigames never have them since you don\'t get a health bar.
    • The arrow shown in the right side of the arena is cyan instead of purple.
    • The tile coloring worked slightly different - Crash\'s paint color is green, but he\'s standing on a red square.
    • All characters have pogo sticks, even the ones who normally use something else (such as N. Brio and his jet-pack).

    Crash Bash is a party video game developed by Eurocom and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation. It is the fifth installment in the Crash Bandicoot series and the first Crash Bandicoot game not to be developed by Naughty Dog (who had left the series to develop the Jak and Daxter series), the last game released for the PlayStation console, and the first in the party genre.

    Gameplay[edit]

    Crash Bash is a party video game featuring eight playable characters with differing powers and skills.[1][2] The game\'s storyline involves a contest of good vs. evil held between the twin witch doctor spirits Aku Aku and Uka Uka.[3] The gameplay consists of 28 different mini-games and three distinct modes of play: \'Adventure\', \'Battle\' and \'Tournament\'.[4]Crash Bash includes multiplayer compatibility for up to four human players with the use of the PlayStation Multitap.[5]

    In the Adventure mode, one or two human players must win all 28 mini-games and retrieve trophies, gems and crystals by accomplishing certain challenges presented for each mini-game. The mini-games are accessed from a series of \'Warp Room\' hub areas,[6] with the first Warp Room consisting of four mini-games.[4] A trophy is won by achieving victory in three rounds of any given mini-game, after which the player(s) can return to the mini-game and receive a gem or crystal by winning one round under special conditions. When a minimum number of trophies, gems and crystals have been won, the Warp Room\'s \'Boss Arena\' becomes accessible, in which the player(s) must defeat a boss character by depleting his health. Winning a Warp Room\'s Boss Arena will grant entry to the next Warp Room. When the game\'s four Boss Arenas have been won, mini-game challenges become available in which the player(s) can win gold or platinum Relics by defeating advanced computer-controlled opponents. The Adventure mode is completed when all trophies, gems, crystals and relics have been won.[6]

    The Battle mode is a quick match within any mini-game that has previously been won in the Adventure mode. The mini-games within this mode can be played as a free-for-all or in teams. In the Tournament mode, players compete in four consecutive mini-games and accumulate points; the player with the most points wins the tournament. In both the Battle and Tournament modes, the number of rounds needed to win a mini-game can be adjusted between two and seven, and the skill level of computer-controlled opponents can be adjusted between \'easy\', \'medium\' and \'hard\'.[7]

    Development[edit]

    The game\'s audio was created by Steve Duckworth.[8]

    Crash Bash received \'mixed or average\' reviews, according to review aggregatorMetacritic.[9] Human Tornado of GamePro noted that the collection of minigames was built for four simultaneous players and added that the game was more fun with more people.[10] Shawn Sparks of Game Revolution praised the \'solid\' graphics, number of minigames and \'great\' multiplayer.[11] Doug Perry of IGN concluded that the game was unoriginal and shallow but worked as a \'social magnet amongst the geek elite\'.[13]Ryan Davis of GameSpot described Crash Bash as rather dull and mediocre.[12]

    Daniel Erickson reviewed the PlayStation version of the game for Next Generation, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that \'If you\'re planning on playing with two or fewer people, go ahead and mentally remove a star from the rating. Otherwise, get a big group together and enjoy.\'[14]

    Crash Bash received a \'Platinum\' sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA),[15] indicating sales of at least 300,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[16]
