Last time before this for me, was about 3 weeks ago when I saw a Crash T-Shirt. Throughout September and August, I also spotted a Wumpa Fruit mug, a Crash travel mug, a water bottle, an Aku Aku and Uka Uka hat, and before that a pair of Crash Bandicoot crew socks, back in July!

Happy Crash Community Day! 20 years ago, we received our third racing game in the Crash franchise, Tag Team Racing. Get ready for chicken-chucking, explosions galore, and a lot of Uranus as we explore what made this spinoff so crazy fun.

Happy #CrashCommunityDay, everyone!

Unfortunately, the notion of making a video and/or streaming this year kind of went out the window partly due to tech issues and being a bit under the weather.

On the plus side, here's a Crash Bandicoot keyring I found out in the wild!

I had a lot of fun with this match.

A big thank you to Skater for being a great opponent as always. Bringing his competitive spirit, banter, and general good nature to this Grand Final match.

And a big thank you to Gizmocat11 for returning as a special guest host!

Square 2 Charge @square2charge.bsky.social · 21d

@thekiwidragon.bsky.social outlasts Skater6453 with a score of 4-1 to win the Television Takeover Grand Final!

Not only does he keep his 303 day reign as S2C Casual Competition Controller holder alive, but he also becomes the first person to defend the controller in a Square Rally event!

@thekiwidragon.bsky.social and Skater6453 have faced friends, rivals, ex-tag team partners, one even faced his own lover.

Now they do battle in the Grand Final of Television Takeover.

Who will be the S2C Casual Competition Controller holder?

Skater is someone I have a HUGE amount of respect for.

We have faced each other many times, be it one-on-one, in multi-person matches, and even tag team matches.

But this is the first time, we meet one-on-one in a Square Rally event.

And I will do everything it takes to win.

Square 2 Charge @square2charge.bsky.social · 22d

With a reign over 300 days as the S2C Casual Competition Controller holder, @thekiwidragon.bsky.social has been on a roll since December 2024.

But before he faces Skater6453, take a moment to watch and relive how both players made it this far!

It's been an honour to carry the banner for Square 2 Charge aloft for close to a year.

I don't know how much longer I'll stay atop the mountain. I'd like to hold out for a full calendar year, but we'll see.

Time will tell...

But first, the Television Takeover Grand Final! 📺

Square 2 Charge @square2charge.bsky.social · 24d

NOBODY DOES IT BETTER.

@thekiwidragon.bsky.social has managed to reign for 300 days as our S2C Casual Competition Controller holder, having won it in the final round of the Jackbox Gauntlet back in December 2024!

Here's to 300 days of pride and prestige, and hopefully many more to come!

SIX THOOOOOUUUSAAAAAAAAAND!

Thank you to everyone who has subscribed to my channel, ever since I decided to take a chance and switch to Crash Bandicoot and Spyro videos way back in September 2019 during the height of the Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled days!

Just wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes here on Bluesky, as well as Discord and Twitter!

Didn't properly count how many there were, but there were certainly a fair few!

As for how I celebrated my 28th, I just had a quiet one at home with my partner and our cats.
