  • The original Crash played fine, controls were very responsive, but the platforming was unforgiving. To give you an idea, the japanese version of Crash 1 is easier than the USA release, with some levels considerably shorter. Crash 2 and 3 are much easier compared to 1 (my personal favorite is 3, with all the powerups you get after beating bosses and the level variety)

    Rayman 1 was similarly hard as fuck, even more so to get a 100%. Absolutely gorgeous 2D graphics that hold up even today. Rayman 2 is worth checking out if you want 3D platforming, there’s lots of that. Can’t talk about Rayman 3 tho, but it does look fun.




  • The PS3 suffered from lack of games and low stocks for the first 2 years, if I’m not mistaken. Pretty sure they only managed to pull through because they’re a megacorp, with other areas covering up the losses in the meantime. Having a much lower failure rate compared to the 360 certainly helped, too.

    The X1 died by M$ showing their hubris at every opportunity before launch. “We’ll block used physical game sales! Fuck games, this is your home media server! The kinect is mandatory and will spy on you! Yes, even while the console is powered down!” - Sony’s marketing was just “We don’t do any of that”
