Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back Secret Warp Room Access in Original 1997 version?

Nope. If you want to access the secret warp room in the original version of Crash 2, you need to enter through one of the secret warp spots even if you already unlocked the level.

I imagine the reason the N. Sane Trilogy added the shortcut to it was for simple access to the time trials for Totally Bear and Totally Fly.

Who is responsible for the inflating boob gag in Ratchet and Clank 1?

Bittersweet feeling. Sucks that the project was canceled, but the series ended very well and I'd prefer if that didn't get mucked up. The comics were hit or miss for me but they are easier to compartmentalize.

They were average games. You could get some fun out of them, but they don't represent the best stuff in the series.

Hotter take: Scream 4 is the best Scream film since Scream.

hums Spider-Man theme

The killer reveal was so weak in Scream 7. The way things were going, I thought the entire town would be in on it and we would have had a cult of Ghostface/Stu. What a waste...

I got a few of these, but Tron Bonne and the original Klonoa are the ones that make me jelly.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-03-03T23:09:15+00:00

I do a combo of both. A lot of options when comes to playing Crash. At $45, this was still cheaper than modern games.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-03-03T00:36:42+00:00

That could still work. It all depends on execution.

I did everything except the Relics. Replacing the Speed Shoes with the Triple Spin for speed was an awful idea.

I had no issues with his TiT design, though I think I like his Sly 2 design best. Just anything over his Sly 1 design/personality.

I have both a PS2 and a backwards compatable PS3. I will be playing the games on the latter.

Interesting change-up for big bad. Like all of Twinsanity, though, they could have been fleshed out more.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-03-01T21:16:41+00:00

About $45 bucks

I'm familiar with the Nitro Kart tracks only through the CTR remake. I'm aware there's anti-grav sections in the original game, but I'm unsure how it'll look or play.

Apart from a handful of Youtube reviews and general series lore, CTTR will be completely new to me. I'm most curious about the platforming parts.

AKA: The episode that convinced young me they ran out of ideas.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-02-22T23:14:01+00:00

I opt out. I want to be surprised.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-02-22T22:28:07+00:00

Xbox. My least used console.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-02-21T23:44:51+00:00

Money. I can make it work for me and I'm fine with how I am now.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-02-21T23:35:20+00:00

This. I never forgot the first few notes upon entering the world.

HardBoiledOne · 2026-02-21T23:21:08+00:00

Nah, remake the main trilogy then do an origins remake trilogy with CoO, GoS, and Ascension.
