Crash Bandicoot: Warped

Crash Bandicoot: Warped is a third-person platforming adventure and the third game in the Crash Bandicoot series. The game was first released for the PlayStation One in 1998, and revamped with trophy support for the PlayStation 4 as part of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. Players control both Crash and Coco Bandicoot, obtaining crystals in each area while avoiding hazards and attacking enemies by jumping and landing on them, or perform a pin attack.

After the space station, Cortex Vortex, has been destroyed, pieces drop into a tropical mountain and set free the mastermind Uka Uka. He recruits Doctor Nefarious Trophy, who created a Time-Twisting Machine that allows their minions to travel through time and collect gems and crystals. It's up to the Bandicoots to stop this heinous scheme.

The original Crash Bandicoot: Warped received postive reviews with an average score of 92%, praised for its improvements, detailed graphics, smooth frame rate, and overall fun.

If you've already played the previous two Crash Bandicoot games, then you should have enough experience that Warped won't prove much difficulty. Overall, the Platinum is arguably easier than the first Crash Bandicoot game, and roughly the same difficulty as Cortex Strikes Back. While some relics can be a bit challenging, any average player should be able to obtain the Platinum with enough practice and time.

Expect around 20 hours for the Platinum, depending on skills.

There are no missable trophies to worry about, so simply play through each of the five warp zones and defeat the main bosses. You can start working on collecting gems now if you wish, though some will be unavailable until the secret paths are later unlocked. So for the most part, simply play through the main story and enjoy the game.

Once that's done, it's time to go back and replay the levels. Here, your objective is to get all the gold relics and gems in each level. If you have any trouble, check out the guides under our Links tab.

Next, it's time to do the same thing, but with the secret levels. There are five secret levels and two super secret levels. Again, check out the guides under the Links tab if you have any trouble.

Finally, simply mop-up any miscellaneous trophies you may be missing at this point. For more information, check out the Crash Bandicoot Warped trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you're missing and their requirements.

Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back Trophy Guide

Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back Trophy Guide. Difficulty: **  A platforming action-adventure originally released on the PlayStation One in 1997, and revamped with trophy support. The Platinum is significantly easier than its predecessor, though still requires some skills.

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back is a platforming action adventure originally released on the PlayStation One in 1997, and revamped with trophy support for the PlayStation 4 in 2017 as part of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. Like the previous game, players jump over obstacles and can either land on enemies to eliminate them, or perform a spin attack. Players clear levels by obtaining one of 25 crystals before returning to the Warp Room and selecting the next level.

Thwarted by Crash for his plans of world domination, Cortex soon devises a new scheme which requires glowing crystals to hold in the power of a solar flux - and needs Crash to retrieve them for him.

The original Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back on the PlayStation One received positive reviews with an average score of 87%, praised for its beautiful graphics, variety of levels, fun gameplay, and being an overall superior game to its predecessor.

While the Platinum for Crash Bandicoot 2 still requires some skills, it is far easier than its predecessor. At least two playthroughs are required, and possibly some backtracking for mopping up. While there are still some tricky areas, any average player should be able to unlock the Platinum.

Expect around 20 hours for the Platinum, though it entirely depends on your skills.

There is only one missable trophy, which you can unlock near the start of the game. For the Cortex N. Furiated trophy, you need to enter a level and exit back to the warp room without acquiring the crystal. Each time you do this, Cortex will continue to get irritated, until the third time where the trophy will unlock.

Once that's out of the way, then simply play through the game from start to finish. You'll be unlocking the story-related trophies along the way. If you wish, you can start collecting the gems now, although you won't be able to obtain all of them just yet, until you have the colored gems.

After that's finished, it's time to replay levels in order to find all the secret exits, gold relics, and all the gems.

Finally, just mop-up any miscellaneous trophies you may still need, and you're finished. Be sure to check out the Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you're missing and their requirements.

Crash Bandicoot Trophy Guide

Crash Bandicoot Trophy Guide. Difficulty: ***  A side-scrolling action platformer, and revamp of the original 1996 title released on the PlayStation One. The game is not long, but a few trophies demand some high skills and patience.

Crash Bandicoot

Crash Bandicoot is a side-scrolling action platformer, originally released in 1996 for the PlayStation One, and revamped with trophy support for the PlayStation 4 in June 2017, as part of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. Players control Crash, a mutated bandicoot who can defeat enemies by jumping on them or performing a spin attack. He loses a life if hit by an enemy or dangerous obstacle, or falls into a bottomless pit. Crash can also use Aku Aku masks which award such bonuses as one-hit protection or temporary invincibility.

Set in the fictional, tropical Wumpa Islands, Crash Bandicoot is a bandicoot who has been mutated by Doctor Nitrus Brio, an assistant to Doctor New Cortex who is attempting to create an army of mutated animals for world domination. Guided by a witch doctor spirit, Crash must save his girlfriend Tawna from being the next mutated experiment, and stop Doctor Nitrus's evil plan.

The original Crash Bandicoot on the PlayStation One received high praise with an average score of 84%, for its bright and colorful graphics, 3D environment effects, and overall fun, though criticized by some for its average gameplay. The remake also received high praise for its tweaks and revamp, while remaining faithful to the original.

This is a low 3-star rating. The game is not particularly long, but can be quite challenging and will certainly test your patience. While the majority of the trophies can be easily unlocked simply by playing through the game and performing various challenges, a few trophies will hinder your road to the Platinum. Expect to replay levels over and over until a flawless speed-run can be achieved.

At least 20 hours are required for the Platinum, though possibly more depending on your skills and whether or not you have previous experience with the original Crash Bandicoot game.

You'll first want to start by simply playing through the game. There are no missable trophies to worry about. However, to save a bit of time, you could work on collecting most of the gems during this first playthrough. Aside from the story-related trophies which you'll unlock naturally, there are a few other miscellaneous ones you could choose to go after during this first playthrough. If so, check out the Crash Bandicoot trophy guide links under our Links tab.

It should be noted that not all the gems can be collected on your first playthrough. Some Color Gems can be tough as they require making it through the level without dying. Also, a few levels require Gem Paths in order to collect some of their gems. These Gem Paths will not be available until later in the game, so you can expect some replaying to collect them all.

Next, it's time to go after the Relics. Here is where your skills will be tested. You'll need 5 Relics for the Catch Me If You Can! trophy, 10 gold or better Relics for the Could Go...All...The...Way! trophy, and 26 gold or better Relics for the Practice Makes Perfect! trophy, which happens to be perhaps the most difficult trophy in the game. These Relics are obtained by making a speed run through the level without dying. While not every level will have you pulling your hair out, there are a few that demand plenty of practice until a flawless run can be achieved. If you're having a lot of difficulty with this, be sure to check out the level guides and video demonstrations under our Links tab.

If you've managed to unlock the Practice Makes Perfect! trophy, then congratulations! The hard part is done. Now, simply mop-up any trophies you're still missing. This may include The Ultimate Gem Path trophy for earning 26 Gems, and possibly a few other miscellaneous trophies. Again, check out the Crash Bandicoot trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you still need and their requirements.
