GNU Order posted:It must really suck to be a 20something, tune into this randomly for the first time, start to get nostalgic over Crash 2, and then this dude starts squealing at you yes it does. Also, turning off the sound fx to save that much time, drat. Crash 3 is a great game though, not really hard, so the gimmicks don't overstay their welcome. e: the 100% speedrun is a pain though.

I thought that guy was a little arrogant / unfunny during his SADX run but he played the game decently enough and it had a good enough vibe to it thanks to his couch crew backing him up. Shame he had to go and ruin it with...that.

UIApplication posted:How do these games look so drat good on a ps1 There's an article about how they made the levels for crash 1, and it basically says "when we made a level, we'd get everything ready, then have our best computers compile it overnight, so making final tweaks was a slog." Also, they didn't have a lot of stuff from sony for reasons, so they had to guess about some stuff for the playstation. e: theultimo posted:http://all-things-andy-gavin.com/2011/02/02/making-crash-bandicoot-part-1/

And now Klaige who helps a lot with the event tweeted we'll take care of it. Wonder if they'll kick him out. To be honest, I had a lot of trouble following the run because of the runners antics, I don't know really what he did because he took so much away from his own run.

Sometidbits for ya:quote:The Playstation had this oddball 512×240 video mode that everyone else ignored, it wasn’t standard (320×240) and ate up video memory others wanted for textures. But it looked SHARP and we found the machine was really good at rendering shaded, but un-textured, triangles. In fact, just as fast in the 512 mode as 320. Jason pointed out — he’s always been the master of seeing the intersection between art and tech — that since polygons on 3D characters our size were just a few pixels, shaded characters actually looked better than textured ones. So we went with more polys on the characters, less texture. This was a highly usual approach, but had lots of advantages. The characters popped, like cartoons are supposed to, we had lots more polygons to work with, and it worked around the Playstation’s lack of texture correction or polygon clipping. quote:The idea was that the camera would follow along next to, behind, or in front of the character, generally looking at him, moving on a “track” through the world. Dave and I experimented with pre-calculating the visibility and sort (the Playstation had no z-buffer, and hence no easy way to sort polygons) ahead of time on the SGI workstations the artists used. Although painful and expensive, this worked really well. As long as you could never SEE more than a set number of polygons (800 for Crash 1, 1300 for Crash 2 or 3) from any given position we could have perfect occlusion and sort, with no runtime cost. We conceived of using trees, cliffs, walls, and twists and turns in the environment to hide a lot of the landscape from view – but it would be there, just around the corner. quote:I also concocted a crazy algorithmic texture packer that would deal with the fact that our gorgeous 512×240 mode left us with too little texture memory. And the even crazier – way crazier – virtual memory system required to shoehorn the 8-16 meg levels the artists created into the Playstation’s little 2megs of RAM. Dave meanwhile had to invent insane bidirectional 10x compressors to help get the 128meg levels down into 12, and figure out some tool for managing the construction of our gigantic 3D worlds. Crash was literally magic.

It's a 3D platformer from the PSX era. If anything it's miraculous that it looks this good.

I never had a Playstation, so I've never played any of the Crash Bandicoot games before. For all the people who were saying this was an amazing platformer, what do you like so much about it? Seems like a pretty linear race to the finish to me.
