Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

Finally got fibre, from 60 to 900mbps, a x15 increase on what I used to have... not living in the stone age anymore lol.
Hopefully I can stream some Valley sessions or Crash Bandicoot time trials or something without issues... but gonna give it a bit to settle in first.

No accounts. No logins. No patches. No DLC. Just the game.

What a great headline

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help.

this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls.

we can beat them

Just seen my YouTube channel has passed 100,000 views (specifically on 31st March, 2025).

Considering it's just a vault of commentary-less personal bests (mostly individual levels) and the fact I'm not trying to grow it in any way, it's really cool that so many people have watched. Thank you 💜

Screenshot of the save screen on Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time showing a complete 106% save file with an in-game time of 18 hours, 43 minutes and 53 seconds.

When I first played Crash 4 on PS4 it took me over 80 hours to 106% it.
Now I have a new PC that can run the PC version, I went for it again and took less than 19 hours!
Just a small improvement 😄

The main campaign screen showing all of the available medals being collected.

TrackMania Nations ESWC 100% ✅
That's all of the classic TM games revisited and completed! I wish I had played these as a kid but I'm happy to have experienced them now and done properly instead of just playing the tracks in United Forever.

The Official Campaign screen showing all of the available medals and cups being collected. There are no Author Medals for Platform and Crazy modes (though Crazy tracks have Author Times that I have beaten), and there are no Serie Cups for Puzzle, Stunts and Crazy modes. (I'm using a custom graphic for the medals where it shows all of them and not just replacing the Gold Medal with the Author Medal).

TrackMania Sunrise eXtreme 100%!
Despite not being the biggest fan of Island I still thoroughly enjoyed this game.
The Serie Cups are great, though I found them very easy except for one in the Platform campaign. Somehow I got Summit's cup first try, but found Peak's cup to be the most difficult.

A display of all of the medals collected for the Race, Puzzle, Platform and Stunts modes. Gold is the highest medal for Platform mode.

The end screen after completing Super Survival Mode, which requires you to one-shot a race against the fastest possible ghost on all 18 tracks in a row.

Been playing TrackMania Original the last 2 weeks and finally completed it. Started off disliking stunts as StuntA1 was very annoying but thankfully it got better later on.
Perfecting the Super Survival mode was a lot of fun!
(made a custom graphic to make Author Medals easier to see)

Since Youtube playlists can have their own thumbnails now instead of just taking the first video's one, I couldn't help but work on some for my Crash Bandicoot Relic playlists. 😀

The main sheet which was recently updated to clean things up. Table to the left shows the overall stats and yearly stats, line graph in the middle shows tracks completed over time, and the chart to the right shows the medal distribution.

The new Missing Author Medals sheet. Lists the track, MX ID, author medal time, my best time, the delta, and a reason why, such as a track being broken by a game update.

I have this extremely long-term project where I'm finishing as many TrackMania² Valley tracks as I can. For me it's one of those games for when I'm feeling down or just want to relax, so it's a fun thing to do to keep it fresh.
Of course I have a spreadsheet for it 😄:

Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy - Spaced Out - 34.96 [PB] YouTube video by Minimariner

Idk what to make my first post so I'll just post a run I did on Spaced Out from Crash NST that I'm pretty proud of (minus the scuffed end tunnel lol).

happy 25th anniversary to crash team racing
