Great clone of Crash Bandicoot Warped

If you played Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, you'll feel deja vu, as it is pretty much the exact same game with the graphics beefed up. If you had the choice, I would suggest getting Warped if you prefer game play over graphics, otherwise get this game if you prefer graphics over gameplay.

One funny game

This game have a good story line.
The graphic is good.
The sound and music are good.
The game play is the same from the other game (for the Playstation version).
This Crash game is very fun and give some time a good challenge.

Crash makes a crash (pun intended)

I think that this game is less then satisfactory. I am a die-hard fan of crash and I have ALL the games (including the Game Boy ones). The graphics are not enough for a PS2 game, and it is a lot more cartoonish then the other ones. Next, it is a COMPLETE rip-off of Warped, having only a handful of new levels. The game is far too easy, and you are fighting the same boss over and over. Next, still, the music is irritating (Especially in the level Avalanche) and it is inexcusable for a company like Vivendi, and the desginers of the game itself. Next, we go to the Super-powers. They have fit in a new idea known as "Tip-toe", which enables you to walk over large areas of TNT or Nitro Crates. (Whatever happened to double slide jump, and triple spin your way down?!) And, they totally messed up the Bazooka. It looks, sounds, and acts wimpy. Finally, the Coco levels are nothing special and, I especially hate this: NO ANIMAL RIDING LEVELS!!
No boars, tigers, polar bears or T-rexes to cruise around on.

P:S: Crunch kinda irritates me. I like him better in CTTR when he has that funny Mr. T voice. :D

So, overall, RENT THIS GAME FIRST.

Loading Time - So What?

I really don't understand the comments of others who gave the game only one or two stars only because of the loading times. I don't think that the loading times are too long. Maybe 20 - 30 seconds at most, but never one minute!
Then, the enemies at the end on each stage (like Crush or Neo Cortex) are never too hard. Some are even very easy! One just has to think a little how to handle them, and that's what I like.
The game is pure innovation and all levels are created in a great graphic.

The only thing I don't understand is that the booklet is grey on the inside and not colored. Did they not have the money for that anymore?

All in all, it's a very good sequel to earlier games with several improvements, as other comments already stated (new vehicles, better graphic, a new character to play, new kinds of objects,...).
A little bit more innovation wouldn't have been bad, however. That's why I give the game 4 points in fun.
For a Bandicoot-Fan, like me, it's like perfect.

Disappointed

Ive played the Crash games on PS1 and it was fun. After getting this game it has really long loading, you play the same boss over and over and a boring storyline. The only thing I like in this game is when Coco has fighting moves. Unless your a diehard Crash fan dont get this game. If you want a good kids game get Sly 2 Band of Thieves.

Great game...if you don't mind the wait.

I love bandicoot! That said, I thought I would turn into an old coot by the time the individual scenes loaded....Loading....Loading...Loading...get up and go make yourself a sandwich, come back later and still Loading...Loading...Loading...
Seriously the game is fun..lots of different worlds to explore and some of the bosses are really tough. But equally as serious, my wife and I would start a world loading and then go to the kitchen to get a drink while we waited. This is why I rate the game as fun, but overall only 3 stars due to the long load times.

who cares about the loading?? its about the game!!

I am sorry, but!!! i have to say what everybody is saying this darn game is just bout loading, the game play is not so bad but i really prefer not watch a bandicoot falling for at lease 2 minutes before i can start to do anything, this game got to me by the third level i am so happy i did not buy this crap well maybe it's good game but!!!!! i had not the time to find out the loading is major set apart from other flaws and i really thought that this version would have been more interactive well,this game is a set back for a PS2 game oh please!!!!!!! what with the 2D anyhow i won't buy this, so if you try this then take whatever load of ???? you get laters folks/ gamers.

ANOTHER GREAT GAME OUT THE SERIES.

As all, these seem to carry on from the last! I thought the psone version was excellent and still i could just keep on completing it now and again and get it done within an hour. Now i have a ps2, i normally get the ps2 version that come out. Crash bandicoot on psone is the only game now i can buy on psone becuse it's so much fun and the graphics are amazin. I recently bought twinsanity, that is brill and if you are looking for an adventure type, thats definitely your game. That isn't through doors like the others, its on an island in the open so its changed on the last one. After enjoying each and every one of the crash bandicoot games, there was defintely a reason for buying this because i am a huge fan of these games. I heard so many good reviews aswell on this game so i got so dying to buy it. Still through doors, not in the open but brill graphics, and great levels. Although the games have not improved as they go along, all are worth buying as you get hours of fun out of these.

Another Good Keep the Kids' Busy Game

I didn't give it an overall 5 star, because after each level or even to quit a game, IT TAKES TOO LONG TO LOAD!!!!!
But other than that, This game is fun and challenging. Crash and the other characters are funny! I think I get more excited than my kids, when I play this one. LOL
