I have never managed to beat the game, can't imagine how some people claim to do so in 5 hours. My 5 year old has finally figured out how to play these games on the playstation. She was getting frustrated with Crash, until I found the code that allows you to go to any level and play. Plus if you go to the Castle Machinery level first, you get 20 some free lives and then can go where you want. Find the password screen and punch in: T(triangle),T,T,T,X,S(square),T,T,T,T,S,X,T,O,T,T,T,O,S,T,X,X,X,X. Maybe it is cheating, but for us folks that have a hard time beating the game, it makes playing it more fun!

I remember telling my mom and my little brother that this game looked stupid and that I didn't wanna play it when they first got a Playstation and this game. I finally gave in and played it however. After playing it for the first time, I got hooked and it was AWESOME. It has some of the best graphics I had seen at the time and most of the levels are fun. It got me hooked so bad, that my family couldn't get me away from it. I told them that I was going to beat the game first and that it was their fault that I got addicted to the game and wanted to beat it in my first few sittings because they had begged me to play it and now I couldn't quit playing it.
What I liked best about it was the great graphics and that unlike a lot of video games I've played, it has a good challenge to it. Some of the levels are almost impossibly hard, but most of them are well balanced to give you a good challenge while not being overly difficult or easy. It also has good replay value. I've beat this game about 5 times. Every now and then it's fun to just take Crash Bandicoot for a spin if you want to play a fun game. I recommend this title to anyone.
THE BEST GAME OF ALL TIME

It's that simple Crash Bandicoot is the best game of all time. It crushes Mario 64 and places right up there with Goldeneye and Jumping Flash. Why you may ask? Well, it may seem only fair in rating standards, but it is simply so much fun. From the hog chasing level to the boss Pinstripe the Potteroo. Combine this with excellent graphics and immersive game play make this a real winner. That and the story's pretty cool. So strap on your helmate and prepare for battle with APAAATARAIACAK, CAUSE THIS IS ONE WILD RIDE.
this game is the best!

This game is the most thrilling game i have ever played. If you like games where you go through so many levels and get secret bonuses and passwords this is the game for you!
How can Crash eat all those apples and still be so skinny?

I don't know what so many people have against this series. Personally I prefer games which are all action to games which just seem to involve wandering around becoming hopelessly lost and ending up going around in circles getting nowhere. This is an excellent example of the best kind of platform game with lots of running, jumping, item-collecting and baddie-avoiding. The game is filled with imaginatively-designed levels and humorous, well-thought-out characters. The exception to this is Tawna, Crash's girlfriend, but thankfully she only appears briefly (there is already enough blatant sexism in adventure games without it invading this kind of cartoony environment). Tawna was wisely dispensed with before Part 2 came out.
Minor gripes aside, however, this is solid platform action, the best I've played since Sonic & Knuckles on the Megadrive. Crash himself makes a likeable and interesting hero, something sadly missing from a lot of video games.

alot of people that own n64 get jealous of games like crash bandicoot,saying that boring mario 64 and donkey kong 64 are better. those games are stupid and they both copie each other they both collect stars or bannanas,in crash you fight evil bosses get chased by bolders jump over deep holes and kill dangerous jungle creatures and fight neo cortex...

I don't know what some people have got against these games. Alright, so Crash can only go in one direction, but frankly I prefer games such as this which are non-stop action to games in which the object seems to be to wander around aimlessly and get hopelessly lost.
The levels in this game are imaginative and the characters are interesting and humerously-designed. Crash himself makes a likeable hero (something missing from too many games these days) and there is plenty of running and jumping.
The only let-down is the fact that later levels can get frustrating after a while. If you get hit so much as once you get sent back no short distance.
But overall, the Crash series are the first decent platform games with real long-term appeal I've come across since 1994's Sonic & Knuckles on the Mega-Drive. If you're the owner of a Playstation then this game is unmissable.
AWESOME GAME!
