Crash Bandicoot 3 - 105% & All Platinums #31: Rings Of Power

[ccutter2]

The hardest part was getting through those green rings.

[joebroe148]

at the time trial, how did you managed (at the end) to hit the nitro without diying

[emperordeebo]

what do u press to go fast?

[SteHa23]

@emperordeebo you have to press [] (the button with the square) whenever you pass through the rings!

[megatimtim]

@SteHa23 You could have just said press the square button

[SenceIess]

um i was just thinking.. couldnt you do a barrel roll?

[Maneru2011]

Mine too!

51.73 is IMPOSSIBLE

The lowest I was able to get is 52.36

[ShmoofingFabsee]

:( on my version i need 51:73 to get platinum. it's the only platinum i haven't got as well.

[Buuhuu19]

I compliment you for all your luck/skills/whatever - especially patience - to fully complete a game filled with so many horrible levels as this. Honestly, from the last real CB3 made by Naughty Dog, I expected much more awesomeness, but instead am let down by shitty minigames which the half game consists of.

I gave up trying to get the Platinum Relics due to how horrid these kind of levels are. Naughty Dog, you took a perfect formula and ruined it. Congrats.

[MarzX1802]

@Buuhuu19 The game isn't that bad. I tried getting all platinums but then I realized you have to get an absolutely perfect run in the fastest way possible so I just said "f*** that". Crash 1 and 2 were my favourites because they had awesome levels and no time trials.

[Maishra]

this was the hardest part for me. i just cant do it QQ how can someone finish all platinums *-*

[ismaelcab1]

Get a psp or a ps3 and download it it's still as fun as always :D

[novittumira]

I miss this game so much! We used to have it when I was a kid and I never got through the whole game 'cause it disappeared :(

[TheMarioman369]

This is the only level in the game I never played =/

[CTRPolar]

LOL as you said you survived at the end, destroyed the nitro crate wihout die because the plane was flying very fast!

[TheMrMichele]

There are two version of this game...on the first you have to beat 53.76, in the other one you have to do 51.73...unfortunately i have the second version

[Unborn25]

i scored platinum in this one too :D

[TabletopWarzone]

greatest game ever

[AndyPertamax]

I got 52:03 and still no platinum :'(

[patrickvideos11]

@AndyPertamax maybe you version its PAL

[3L3EN]

i played all crash series on ps3 lol downloaded from PS store its so cool to remeber old PS1 times

[TJSh0w]

What the hell? I got 53:30 and I didn't get platinum. I went to a website and it says platinum is 51: something. Also, I hate Area 51 too, because my game freezes every time I try to go to it. So I can never beat this game 105%. :(

[douglaslg]

51:46, but in emulator, in PSone I get 51:40 =D

[alexandredu41]

Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped = one of the best video games EVER. When I am 50, I will always be amazed at this game !!!

[JacomeFelg]

i didn't know chuck norris had a youtube acount! 0_o

[TheLOLLERO112]

I Have Crash Bandicoot 3 and that crash is best but I hate area 51.

[10storme]

superman 64 level ftw

[GarlandTheGreat]

@10storme Except this game is nowhere near as great as Superman 64 :P

[10storme]

@GarlandTheGreat Superman 64: Game of the year, all years

[numbuh745]

@GarlandTheGreat .... LOL that's like saying "Crash Bandicoot sucks"!!

[numbuh745]

@GarlandTheGreat Please excuse my opinion, I just recalled a certain history with Superman 64....

[Tonytambe]

@GarlandTheGreat Are you saying that as a joke?

[superswampert45]

Dont spam but I think he cheated becuase if you pause it at 23 seconds there is a ring and 3 boxes but if you carry on watching he only destroys 2 of them

[JacomeFelg]

@superswampert45

he destroyed it at 0:58

[superswampert45]

@JacomeFelg Thanks didnt see it ;<0

[ShadowX5321]

You need to beat 51:73 for platinum you got 53:04 somethings wrong here.

[justKenny99]

I have 52:90 and no Platinum.

[SanityManipulation]

Of course the two highest rated comments would both be "Do a barrel roll!" one year apart from each other...

[zachl1226]

I have counted 31 barrel rolls in this video.

[CobaltiSickle]

StarBandicoot

[redeemedchild24]

Crash is gonna puke after that time trial...

[DeoxysAndMew]

my is spining after ths level my new now and best time 53:00 (old 53:23) thanks for that video

[Demonman26]

Superman 64 anyone?

[JiMaNeYbOb]

thumbs up if literally the only levels you played were the bike ones, the plane ones and the boat ones!!! :D

[psxdriverplayer]

Before getting the Platinum Relic, got the time 53.80 and the time required were 53.76. Got pissed off because of that, got it later though

[demiskys]

well done men

you are better than me in this level

[vuilo101]

i have a fucking platinum EVERYWHERE except this one .. i keep missing it by 1 second every time .. any help ?

[1RonBurgundy1]

@vuilo101 Hey I just beat this level, took me 5 hours straight. I kept slowly improving my time. The one thing i always did is at around 0:30, you go low to hit a ring before a stretch without any rings. Make sure that by the time you come out of that ring you have minimum 32 seconds left on the clock. You have to also kinda cut corners on the final stretch of the nonstop rings at the end of the level. Also, when you spin, hold left or right at the end of the level, or else you will miss rings.

[1RonBurgundy1]

@vuilo101 After a while I consistently would come up 3 tenths of a second short, I even got within 11/100ths of a second, you can imagine how pissed I was. You also have to hit the OUTSIDE edge of pretty much every ring to keep a straight racing line. Don't give up. This level is brutal. I am missing 2 platinums now. Good luck.

[UtopiaUK]

When I got the Platinum Relic for the first time on this level. My time was the exact same as the platinum requirement. Right now I really struggle on the Jetski levels, Motorcycle levels and Orient Express. Your walkthrough has certainly helped me out on some of the harder levels so thanks for posting. :)

[panos161]

hey dude excellent job!!i have done 100% how did you get the 105??

[DoubleGee94]

The best flying level in the game!

[WonkyTonkBotty]

Whoa, I never knew barrel rolling absorbed Nitro explosions.

[joojy]

This one is hard. Max 40 attempts.

My times:

1st. 53:44

2nd.53:84

3rd.53:84

I nearly raged quit when I had the 2nd & 3rd times...

[CrashBandicootNo1]

i got this level with 51:46 thanks GarlandThegreat for showing me how in this walkthrough

[xXmartinoliXx]

on my version the platinum requirement is 51:73 and the best i can is 52:10 anyone has a trick?

[Je582647]

I think my record on Rings of Power was 51:14

[luisete22]

This level should be called DO A BARREL ROLL!

[Crashmania1021]

Funny but sick level. I've been working on this level to beat developer time. I once got 47:93 which is developer time with lots of luck. My goal is 47:90.

P.S. PAL version is slower than NTSC-U on plane levels. Thus, his time on NTSC-U should be 51.xx.

[cogs90210]

This reminds me of the Spyro flying levels.

[teknul89]

I have played the game Again and it was so Fun but the Crash bandicoot 3 is the best Crash bandicoot games and I have started one Complete all levels i got 70 % 11 or 12 platinums and 1 gold and no more I will try to get the platinums but 70 % is fine whit 11 or 12 Platinums but i need more of them :)

[Entelarmer]

Damn, i've only got 53:44 >_>

[blooflazh7]

i got 50:20 (:

[JeSangtae]

After remember where the rings are, getting platinum was not difficult. On my version, the platinum requirement is 51:73, and I got 51:30. This level is one of the best work what Naught Dog did on CB3.

[hobodude68]

My time: 53:76

Platinum requirement: 53:76

And i got the relic OOO RIGHT!

[pikachu22540]

lol i beat ur time my time is 51:60... not that hard for me actually :/

[michaelwhiplash]

oh I almost forgot it I made those times on my PSP xD

[michaelwhiplash]

in this level I made the platinum with a time of 51:30

[safari338]

if you got 53.04 and a platinum and i got 51.93 and no platinum THATS NOT FAIR

[bluearchon2002]

then get the original game why dont ya

[Crashmania1021]

The platinum requirement on NTSC ver is 0:51:73.

[GriMReaperx501]

i played that game when i was 9 years...lol and i unlocked rings of power... i was so fascinated by that gane...!SIMPLY THE BEST!

[AerialAngel1287]

My best time is 49:20 =)

[joojy]

i keep missing at ring 2,7,9,15,16 and 24.

[cardenw]

absolutely hated... this level... i want to burn those lil flying bastards... lol

[Nikoelexperto]

Thanks

GAMEFAQS

[o0cherylmarie0o]

[JoesGaming]

Really good time!

[urmumsmellz123]

[Sonar009]

[Pakillo027]

[AerialAngel1287]

Yep just before you hit it.

[AKACRASH333]

well i finaly got all platinums a cuple days ago. i used alot of these videos to help me. thnx alot!

[AKACRASH333]

yea like gameman87 said, on my playstation its 51 sumthing... its the last platinum i need!!! y is it diferent?!?!?! y????

[kirbythecreampuff]

Garland plays on the PAL version of the game. You must play on the NTSC version? The platinum requirements are different.

[erkanplaya18]

2:47 ??!! he´s fly to nitro and not died??

[GameBuster43]

Probably because he did a barrel roll

[billym2008]

do you need all platinums for the gem for coco or can i get gold?

[SpencerCSmith]

All gold will get you 105%. Getting all platinum is just for ultimate bragging rights ;)

(Which I don't have, I think I have 21 platinum and the rest are gold... and that's good enough for me! lol)

[Nitrokid217]

Awesome!

[gameman87]

I think the NTSC version might have a different time requirement. To my knowledge its 0:51:76

[firegecko12356]

51.73. My best time is 52.56

[KILLEROFSLAPPY2000]

2.13:43 my time

[Angrymonkey2489]

Mine's 2:16:54, beat that!

[crammaster88]

How did you do that? I didn't get the platinum untill my time was 51:26!

[frazsw]

TRIVIA - Rings of Power was the name of Naughty Dog's older game before Crash Bandicoot.

[GahlAkaron]

This is a lot like the WoC bonus level where you rqace the bearminator

[Nintendofan9731]

ok,wtf my time is 52:49 and i have a gold relic?!?

[Nitrokid217]

Gold is better than Sapphire.

[pivotdude0821]

you probably have the ntsc version. the times are different than in the pal version, which garland is playing on.

[CustomSongCharter]

This is very similar to what Spyro did.

[demonninjaadogg3]

That was also too close

[HBKHHH4Ever]

one press of X after spinning means DOOM!!!

[R9KenShiN]

I am 49 secons

[marioandsonic3339]

wow nic ethey did the same in crash 4:TWOC you just zoomed by but the prbelem with time if you hit a nitro you are screwed

[newspforce]

how do you get the 2nd gem on this level?

[iamjacobbelieve]

Its what you get for winning im pretty sure, after all, no crystals left

[MaceH1ndu]

Do a Barrel Roll!

[robotmaster101]

PRESS R OR Z TWISE!

[z0mbiew0lf]

or press square XD

[pokemondiamond493]

the platinum relic requrement for me was like 51:76 and i got 51:60 on this. took about 20 - 30 trys to finally get it!

idk why it was higher requirement for you or anyone else, but im not complaining cus i got the platinum relic for this level now :D

[AkeAde]

I just can't get Platinum Relic here, my best is 53.00, I cannot go faster, is there any hint of how to spin?

[OentOent]

Is it possible to crash when you hit too much Nitro's?

[EOTW666]

this is the only level i didnt unlock yet :O

[smallfool15]

my record is 53.06

[smallfool15]

thnx garland yet again u helped me on crash 1 to get 100% with ur sick vids i wondered how u could get platinum but barrel rolls are the answer thnx

[DoctorWhoMe]

how many crates?

[SterlingII]

Nice flying skills.

[Gmone750]

DO A BARREL ROLL!

[AllanMan2]

More like DO OVER 9,000 BARREL ROLLS!!

[xZippy38]

Hell, when I got all golds, I was like, "Damn, that's good enough for me!"

[pyroclasmicinferno]

Wow, I suck. >_> I only got Gold on this one...

[depression11115]

I thought this was kind of weird for the last level, but it was kind of cool how it was different than all the rest.

[dropthepin]

When will you upload the 2 secret levels (HOT COCO & EGGIPUS REX), as well as their time trials?

[GarlandTheGreat]

Today and tomorrow :)

[OverlordIX]

Okay, thx... XD

[H2E4]

I Love This Level! But Future Frenzy is still better. 5/5 again

[taro9ishe]

Any luck on the Jenova battle? Crash vids are great. Your almost finished!

[peopleknowme2]

OMG!!! i completely forgot about this level. It was amazing =]

[Slamman]

I was about to make the same comment. I forgot all about it too. =o I dunno how 'cause it was a really fun level

[Zero77745]
