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.
Crash Bash 'Fails' without Naughty Dog

From the first loading of Crash Bash, it becomes very obvious that this version was not written by Naughty Dog. In short, Crash Bash is dismal. The graphics are less than the quality of the first Crash Bandicoot, the music is a watered down version of previous games excellent scores, and the games are completely unimaginative. Even smaller details like the control of the characters is very poor. One series of games is similar to the original ping-pong games that came out on Atari in the 1970's. You will clearly see through the thin vail of this version's attempts to duplicate aspects of previous games, and come to the conclusion that Sony has utterly 'failed' (just like the repeated 'you fail' instead of 'game over' that appears on Crash Bash). Sony should pay the price, and get Naughty Dog back ASAP.

Unforetunately I wasn't able to experience the boring repition of levels that my friends have complained about. MY particular problem was with the game even running, Sony has made sure this won't run on a PSX with a mod chip, even if you have purchased the game. People use mod chips for more than just piracy, some like to get advanced Japanese versions of games before they hit US stores, others contest their rights to make software backups. In either case new or backup this game detects the mod chip after booting and puts up a nice unfun stop message. I'd like to bash more than just Crash for this piece of anti-customer programming.
