began an incredibly innovative party/arena game, suffered a bit from repetition near the end warp rooms but overall tight gameplay, fun. Many days with my friend on the Bash levels waking the Penguin :tongue:

Where did Rilla Roo go?! :tongue:

7.5/10

including the entire discography :wink:

Thought this game was almost as good as the original platformers tbf. The Elementals were creepy and amazing. Some levels like H2 Oh No, The Gauntlet and the Westerns were incredible. So much replay value. Only thing which let it down for me was the inevitable loading times! 9/10 :biggrin:

I buzzed about this soooo much when I got my first GBA. Was incredibly difficult! Not a patch on the originals but did good justice with the limitations of the console it was given. 7.5/10

Ahh I hated the nitro boxes! I played Crash 1,2, Warped and Wrath of Cortex. I loved the easy levels but it got hard really fast!

Decent idea taking Crash to the alien planets, would not be fair to expect it to live up to CTR, difficult with replay value, some great characters/bosses, settings and decent plot. 7.5/10 :smile:

the last great Crash game! Crash of the Titans etc. could have been fantastic had they have stuck this piss-taking wacky design. Love the Twins. 8/10

decent idea with some great additions, style was a cracker in homage to Twinsanity, suffered from the curse of short modern children's platformers. Let down my 12 year old self. 6.5/10

So many pits to fall down. I hated doing bits over and over again. I liked collecting the ankhs on the time trials in Crash Warped. Collecting the 100% box gems in Crash 1 was hard because you had to do the whole level without dying.

Aww I wanna play on them now!
