Damn_Underscore 09/23/22 8:02:39 PM #17:	Crash 1 doesnt have the tightest controls but is very forgiving if you slightly miss your jump. Future games have tighter controls, and I actually use the dpad for those because it is more precise. TBH that is one reason why Crash should have defined the genre.
