Crash Bash
Crash Bash
Crash Bash, développé par Eurocom Entertainment Software et édité par Sony Computer Entertainment, est sorti le 7 novembre 2000 sur PlayStation, PlayStation Portable et PlayStation 3. Ce jeu de réflexion et de puzzle se présente comme un jeu de fête permettant à quatre personnes de s'affronter dans 28 mini-jeux différents, répartis en trois modes de jeu : Aventure, Bataille et Tournoi. Le titre offre une compatibilité multijoueur pour jusqu'à quatre participants humains via le Multitap de la PlayStation, et les épreuves sont accessibles depuis un monde central relié à divers niveaux par des axes. Dans la campagne Aventure, Aku Aku et Uka Uka, empêchés de se combattre directement, organisent un concours entre équipes pour régler leur conflit. La presse a salué l'aspect convivial du titre, Game Fan évoquant l'envie d'offrir plusieurs exemplaires et Multitaps à ses proches pour les fêtes, tandis que Games Radar y voyait davantage de divertissement à quatre joueurs que bien d'autres productions. Certains joueurs sur Metacritic ont toutefois relevé la difficulté d'adaptation aux mini-jeux exigeant de nombreux essais, ou l'ennui généré par une intelligence artificielle perçue comme défaillante. L'agrégat de notes s'établit à 72,06, pour une durée de partie principale d'environ six heures et demie et un parcours completiste d'environ douze heures.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« I, for one, will be giving multiple copies of Crash Bash and multi-taps to family and friends this holiday, and that alone should speak miles on just how addictive and fun this game can be in a multiplayer environment. »
« More four-player fun than even Ron Jeremy could offer. »
« Not to say that Crash Bash can't be played alone, but when there's a room full of people, Crash Bash suddenly becomes ten times more fun. »
« It's not original and it's not deep, but it's packed with tons of silly games and it's a social magnet amongst the geek elite. »
« The games themselves look good and play even better, but only against other humans. It's just not fun to play minigames against a computer, no matter how well they're both programmed. »
« The sheer variety of games will entertain most any party for hours on end (or at least until the beer runs out.) »
« It is shallow, but it is a party game meant for four players to have fun beating each other senseless (in the game of course). »
« It's a party title without the boring drama of rolling dice. It's a game that gets right to the point...the fun. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« now this was a crush game that involved a lot of mini games and when I mean a lot they took you a lot of trials and a lot of practice to basically win three three games in a row to basically to cut a gem which you needed to progress in the story to face bosses in the game that took you a bit of pro practice and a bit of other things as well which are for fighting rare and bosses and also getting two Endings which you want you play as a bad guy you get a different ending and then if you play a good guy you get a different ending as well so try both and see which one you like best »
« The best part of this game is when you get so used to the AI being complete crap and turn the game off out of boredom instead of anger. »
« One of the best games of the history. You could play with up to 3 friends, and it's very funny »
« I had a lot of fun playing it with a friend when I was a teenager. The only problem the game had, in my opinion, was the irregular difficulty; some mini-games were easy while others were very difficult. It’s a fantastic game to play with a friend—fun and addictive. I don’t know if it would be very fun to play alone. »
« Its a fun game to play with a friend, it has a decent challenge and cool level design, though it can be a little repetitive and the controls a bit clunky. »
« Ugh, I just played Crash Bash, and let me tell you, it was a total mixed bag. I mean, yeah, some mini-games were kind of fun and different, but the controls were just so frustrating and the difficulty level was all over the place. Honestly, I wouldn't even give it a passing grade. If you're a fan of the series, go ahead and give it a shot, but don't say I didn't warn you. »
« No se que le ven »
« Sony Computer Entertainment America's Crash Bash for PlayStation is a very good game. »
