Crash Bandicoot

Heres another classic Platform I researched a bit about, Crash Bandicoot which has made its way across a great vary of platforms from the old generation consoles to the next generation. Whilst The theme of quite a few of the Crash Bandicoot games is appropriate and good research as it does draw some jungle / Mayan influences within some of the levels, and I really like some of the ruins / statues in the game. I really wanted to comment on some of the camera views in the game, I really like the way they have crash move across the screen like a 2d platform but then he moves towards you, I think its really effective and as an extra dimension. Its also a very useful technique used for when there's a chase and something is trying to catch you and you see the thing behind and its easy to anticipate how close he is. What I also like about crash its such an easy game to play, and very hard to get lost while offering a decent challenge.
