Croc! Legend of the Gobbos

Post by Nannerb3 »

If anybody knows any hints or anything cool about these games, you can post them here!
You can talk about Croc 1, Croc 2, and any of the mobile games. I don't have a phone, so I'd like to know more about them.

I wish Argonaut hadn't stopped making Croc games, they're really fun. Croc 1 has to be the best, although Croc 2 was a good game as well.

Finally a topic about Croc, one of my favourite games ever among with Rayman. I still feel bad that Argonaut Software when bankrupt in January 2004, when the development team had plans for a second sequel and a kart game...

From the mobile games I've only tried out Jungle Rumble, and it disappoints me. I never finished it but the game has got bad controls.

I have walkthroughs of both main games in my YouTube by the way. :)

Yeah, I always wondered what Croc 3 would've been like.

I have Croc but I haven't played that much of it. It's an decent enough platformer but to be honest, I don't think it has aged very well over time.

I would like to listen an argument, because I think it is still today a quite enjoyable game. I can tell you that the PC version looks much more nicer graphically as it has got smoother FPSs than the PlayStation version.

I have the PC versions of both of the main games, but I never have seen the PlayStation version.

When I played Croc, I felt as though the controls were stiff and rather slow compared to other platformers such as Spyro and Rayman 2. It has been a while though since I've played it, I should probably give it another go.

I can also guarantee you that the controllings in the PC version have a much better response time than in the PlayStation version.

Here's an example:

Croc is among my list of favorite games, not only because it's fun, but Croc (along with Rayman) is what got me into gaming.

Ooooh I'm going to love this topic. :D

I also became a great fan of Croc since Haruka made me discover the game...Sadly I discovered the game after the enterprise went bankrupt...It's strange I never heard about it before. xx

But I really love this game. The characters are cute, the scenario is very nice, the levels are hard at first....I really loved the style...And the Gobbos. They are just SO ADORABLE. X3

Though my favourite character will always be the mighty Baron Dante. :mrgreen: I really like this bad guy, he's my fav villain after Admiral Razorbeard.

It's a shame that I don't play PC games. O:

That's right, I got amazed when playing the PC version after I have tried the Playstation versions. Though, it's a shame that the PC version lacks some music soundtracks, the best examples being two of the three Baron Dante's battle themes.

It is one of the weak spots of the game, but the levels are long and challenging enough in order to make the game very enjoyable yet.

Exactly, sadly Dante was quite easy to defeat, and it's even worse in Croc 2. :oops2:

Just the Baron Dante fight, or every boss?
