pacman000 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 When Crash Bandicoot was released in 1996, Sony ran a contest using this online game: https://web.archive.org/web/19961222223310/http://www.sepc.sony.com:80/SCEA/arena/crash/pursuit/ Does anyone remember this? I just found out about it a few years ago while exploring the Wayback Machine, & I’ve not been able to find anything about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jgkspsx Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I remember playing it at the library, which is where I went to get internet access. I don’t know what else there is to know about it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacman000 Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Well... perhaps I've built it up in my mind a bit, since I can't play it myself. First, it sounds like some sort of point-n-click adventure, where you play as Crash trying to find gems. Is that right? Second, what did it look like? Did it use prerendered CGI, or painted back grounds or what? Third, there was a contest. Who won it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jgkspsx Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I really don’t remember it too well (I remember Radiohead’s “choose your own adventure” webpage for OK Computer a lot better) but I believe it was in-game style rendered CG. It was a choose your own adventure game, more text adventure style than point and click, with limited item usage. I know I didn’t win the contest 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
