I think the best is...

Crash Bandicoot (Crash, C... 24 66.67%
 
Spyro (Spyro the Dragon, ... 10 27.78%
 
Croc (Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, Croc 2) 2 5.56%
 
Total:36

The 90s was the age of the mascot platformer, and the PS1 had some legendary ones; three of the most successful were Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the Dragon, and Croc.

Of these three, which do you think had the best games on PS1, and what about your choice makes them the best in your view?

I think the Spyro trilogy is pretty much perfection, and super chill to play through. So it got my vote.
Crash 3 was also amazing.
Croc was maybe a little more rough around the edges, but still good, I haven’t played it in decades though. It is also on the Saturn as far as I can recall.

Spyro clears this easily. Beautifuls worlds, music and really good kinectic energy.

There's something extremely rare in the characters movement momentum due to him being a quadruped character. It's interesting that no one has really tapped into it since for any other platformers. Although Crash had the bigger Nostalgia I think Spyro would fair better with a brand new game, it just leans more into the modern day preferences of open environments. I hoped MS buying Activision would at least result in a higher chance of us seeing a new game in the IP but now I'm not so sure :/

At least Toys for Bob is working on something (I'd pref Banjo over Spyro, but would love both)



Crash for sure.



Croc doesn't even belong in the same room as the other two.

Crash all the way.

I absolutely love Crash Bandicoot, since my childhood. But Spyro trilogy is amazing as well.

I think my vote goes for Crash because I played it more.



Rayman 2 would be a way better fight.

Crash >>>> Spyro >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Croc
