crash bash is one of those games you could play with your friends when you have nothing to do. Although most levels are similar, you can never get tired of it. My favorite minigames are Pong and the Tank wars. If your not a huge fan of the crash series maybe you should wait a while to purchase this. But if your a big time crash fan and you enjoyed mario party this is a must have.

....O.k if you want to go head to Head or 4 against 4 but Avoid the Adventure Levels. With it's overbearing YOU FAIL every time you lose no such reminder if you win by the way. It's a bit Too Harsh for the young players the game is intended for. I feel as though i wasted my money . A FAR Cry from Crash Bandicoot: Warped
Crash has been bashed. What a terrible shame.

First things first. This game has a large amount of repetition. The games start out with a simple set of objectives from old arcade games. After you finsh the first set of games, you do the game again, but this time with a small new element thrown in. Without a dought, this gets boring quickly. To make it worse, the one player mode can be down right boring. There is absoulutly no backing force to keep you going. This might be part of the franchis's new develeper and owning company (it's Universal Studios for those of you who didn't know). It's sad that the preveous titles were instant classics and this one, with all its potential, could not follow through. What a terrible shame.
Just The Best!

I would not recommend this game. The only good thing about it is that it is a four player game. The game has good graphics, sound etc. but gets very boring after a while. The amount of games you can play are very limited and only entertaining for the first five or six days. After that the game is EXTREMELY boring. If you have played it somewhere and liked it, DON'T buy the game immediately until you've played it at least five or six times and still haven't gotten sick of it.

First off I thought this game was very cool, even if you don't win in adventure all the time. In this game the object is to pick a character from evil or the good side to win the cup. This all started because of the withch doctor brothers. Aku Aku's evil brother who was freed wants all of Aku Aku's power so he can rule or something. Aku Aku says his brother may have his power, if he beats him in a fight of good vs. evil charachters. But there were only two good and six evil so Aku Aku says that his evil brother must give him two players, and he does. The two players the good gets are Tiny and Dingodile. All the players are, Crash, Coco, Tiny, Dingogile Neo Cortex, N.brio, Koalla kong, and the new character Rilla roo, who is a cross between a gorilla and a Kangaroo. Crash and Cortex are the most well rounded players in this game. Coco and N.brio focos on speed, while Koalla Kong is just as strong as tiny. Rilla Roo is like Dingo dile. If some people tell you every time you lose it says FAIL. But it only says that in the gem and crystal rounds. And if that still gets you down you probably shouldn't even play any games with tough challenges that take a few tries.
Complex, Long-Lasting, and Frustrating

Crash Bash is a rip-off of Mario Party, but more free style and the opposite extreme in complexity. There are 10 types of games, and each miniature game is a variation of these types. Only 4 are available at first; the rest must be unlocked in one- or two-player adventure mode. The typed of games include pong, racing, and a tank battle game. The games are very complex, with several powerups and bonuses, and would appeal most to experienced gamers and gamers who enjoy pressing buttons randomly. Adventure mode is sometimes frustrating, and you'll find yourself playing games you don't like to unlock others. You have to collect certain numbers of trophies, gems, crystals, and relics. Relics come in gold and platinum, as in earlier Crash games. Unlocking all of the levels is challenging and rewarding. Ultimately, I recommend this for experienced gamers only.
Best Of The Crashes

"Crash Bash" is deffinently the best of the Crashes. It's challenging, fun, and hard to quit. The levels are hard yet still fun to play (even though you loose half the time). And after you beat one level, they develope new ways to play that same level in a different way (My favorite levels are the Crash Box Bash one's). But I have to say that the best, best, best part of "Crash Bash" is.......... THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE CRASH!!!!! That's right. You can choose from a total of eight charecters (Crash, Coco, Dr. Neo Cortex, Tiny, ect.) to lead you through the game. You can also battle other people, go through tournements, or do the regular adventrue mode. So this is the reason I think that Crash Bash is they best of the Crashes.
An intense hilarius party game!

Every system has a great party game. Nintendo has the Mario Party series, Sega has Sonic Shuffle, and Sony Playstation has the smash hit, Crash Bash, which is debatedly the best of the three.
In Crash Bash, you battle it out against three other players. You play as one of eight Crash Bandicoot standby's, including Crash himself, Coco, Neo Cortex, and the debut of Rilla Roo.
You have the choice of seven different arenas, three of which are locked, and all have four different variations. You can play these through Battle Mode, where you play for fun with yourself or up to three other players; Tournament Mode, where you pit yourself in a contest to be win the most of the four variations of an arena; and finally, Adventure Mode, where you go through different "Warp Rooms" where you battle it out through the arenas trying to obtain all the various Cups, Trophies, Gems, Crystals, and Relics.
This is a great game where you will have an awesome time whether by yourself or playing with friends. A must have for all Crash fans, party/ multiplayer gamers, and those who just want to have fun!

Don't get me wrong, this is a great game. However, customers must be warned. If you got a PlayStation overseas (like the Philippines) or modified it to play games like Dance Dance Revolution (that American developers are not bringing to the US), Crash Bash will not play. Kudos to them for making anti-piracy software, but some people end up buying modified machines without even knowing it.
