Crate Expectations/Quotes

"Games can be rated and compared based on the shortest amount of time it takes a player to reach the first crate, which represents the point where the developers ran out of ideas. This number is measured in seconds and is called "Start to Crate" or "StC". The smaller the StC, the worse the game."

- Erik Wolpaw

""If there is a crate, I will push it.""

- I Am Resident Evil

""Sorry about the crates. I'm having some things put into storage and the delivery people haven't been yet.""

- Lara Croft, Tomb Raider tutorial level

""There are many games where box breaking is core to the experience, a cultural practice, a folkway.""

- Tycho Brahe, Penny Arcade
