Chris Buffa (Modojo): The 90s gave birth to some of the greatest characters in gaming, from the thrill-seeking Lara Croft to the super speedy Sonic the Hedgehog. Chief among them? Crash Bandicoot, a fun-loving critter that quickly became the face of Sony's PlayStation console. He starred in some of the coolest games for the system, titles that (as some will argue) stood side-by-side with the best Mario and Sonic had to offer during this period. Let's also not forget about Crash Team Racing, a game that gave the Mario Kart series serious competition.
For many, the game became the sound of the 90s – but Josh Mancell tells us how the music for PlayStation’s first mascot game originated in Kraft cheese and Kraftwerk
Brendan O’Brien, the voice actor behind the original Crash Bandicoot and several other characters featured in the classic Naughty Dog trilogy of games on PlayStation, died on March 23.
Have you ever wondered what the best year in gaming was? Well wonder no more! The British public have had their say, and voted for 1996.
I have some many fond memories as a 10 year old gamer from back then! The best of times!
So…. Nevermind the first time Resident Evil or Tomb Raider was released, a damn near arcade perfect port of Tekken 2, Quake, Wipeout, Crash Bandicoot, Super Mario RPG, Nights, Panzer Dragoon Zwei? It’s shitty cuz the old N64 is it?
More of a 97 person myself.
FF7, Symphony of the Night, Gran Turismo, Grand Theft Auto, Dynasty Warriors, Diablo, Fallout, Tomb Raider 2, Mega Man Legends, GoldenEye, Turok, Wing Commander Prophecy, Star Fox 64, Einhander, Tobal 2, Bushido Blade, Colony Wars, Ultima Online. Was a great year to start working at Funcoland.

2013 was a good year too. Dead Space 3, The Last of Us, GTA5, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Tomb Raider reboot, Bioshock Infinite, Batman: Arkham Origins, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Grid 2 & more.
Dead Space 3? That game only deserves to be on rock-bottom lists. In my honest opinion.
Its is very Marmite that game but to me it was only that love story nonsense that was bad, really bad.
