With updated controls and modern visuals enhancing the experience, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos is a PlayStation classic worth revisiting!
Argonaut Games is better known as the studio that actually developed the original Star Fox for the Super Nintendo, as well as the creators of the legendary Super FX chip, but their development history in the 90s and early 2000s is a lot more interesting than merely gimmicky games on the SNES. Among their outings there’s Buck Bumble, Alien Resurrection (the FPS that popularized twin-stick controls ...
Remasters of all shapes and sizes are commonplace in the current video game landscape, and frankly, some deserve the return to the limelight more than others. Argonaut Games, itself revived after a long hiatus, is bringing back one of its best-loved titles that we think more than earns its right for a comeback.

Some games from the ‘90s exist in a strange, rose-tinted limbo where you remember them feeling a certain way, but replaying them now feels, well… clunky. Croc: Legend of the Gobbos was one of those games, a charming 3D platformer with tank controls that made precise jumps a nightmare. But now, thanks to its remaster, Croc has returned, and he’s feeling better than ever. Well, mostly.
The PS1 generation of retro 3D platformers is a delight, with many heroes like Crash, Spyro and Rayman making their way into the mainstream. One character that's also on that list is Croc, a mascot from Argonaut Games that spun off from a Yoshi platformer pitch to Nintendo. Croc Legend of the Gobbos is worth bringing back as it has stellar 3D platforming, but has hang-ups due to its age.
A remaster done right, with loads of extra materials to check out, on top of a more polished version of the original game.
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster is a good look at how 3D platformers were put together in the 90s, but the gameplay falls seriously short of modern standards. There is just so much that could be better when it comes to the gamplay that would have made the experience more tolerable and enjoyable, but what we have is a bang average 3D platformer.
