This game should have been called the "Crash Bandicoot" screen saver with interactive extras. The load times on this game are miserable!!! Plus the game itself is not as fun as the Crash previous Crash iterations. It looks like Crash and play resembles Crash but it is just not quite right. If you played the previous versions you will probably be disappointed.

Worst. Game. EVER.

Before I say anything, I would like you all to Know that im a big fan of the Crash Series and encourage you to Purchase the past games. Unfourtonitly the fun stops here. I can't complain ENOUGH about this game. First of, The Loading sequences are TERRIBLE! Why should I wait 5 minutes to play a 2 and a Half minute level!? Other probloms include: Repedative Gameplay, Cheap Deaths, Numorous Glitchs, Barely Improved Graphics, Etc.

Can't stand that this game takes forever and a day to load. That is all I have to say. The game is a lot like previous games, but it takes FOREVER to LOAD! If you don't mind waiting for the loading then go for it. Otherwise I would go for a different game.

Definitely rent before you buy

Games, like every form of entertainment, are subjective so I would never tell anyone not to at least try something out. I came really close this time. Lets start with the load time--this practically cripples the game and makes the whole experience annoying. The graphics, though not a big deal since really this game is for those into the CB series, did not impress me. Movement of the characters has an annoyingly N64 like feel to it. This was my second attempt at getting into the CB series and I think it will be my last. Those into the series, which I am not, may find something appealing about it although I'm not sure what.

I miss Naughty Dog :/

Being a huge fan of Crash and the Naughty Dog team, I was really hoping that Talltails would do Crash good when they were doing this game.

They failed, miserably.

I'm a big peeved that EGM and a few other mags were giving this anywhere from a 8-10 rating, because this game is absolutely ridiculous. The boards are not challanging, it feels like ND only ripped off and the load times between the sessions? Oh man, that ALONE kills me is the loading times. I calculated the following occured:

1. Game Loads (1-1.5 minutes)

2. You go to the first section and choose the first entrance to a world

3. Game loads (1-1.5 minutes)

4. Play the puzzle (usually no more than 90 seconds)

5. Go back to the Main Screen

6. Game loads (1-1.5 minutes)

7. Repeat process

For the PS2 architecture, this is just really really insulting to have to wait that kind of time for the game to load and especially since it seems the engine they are using is the one based off of Naugthy Dogs, so there shouldn't really have been much modification other than coding for visual stuff. I'm horribly horribly disappointed in this game and disappointed at all the CB players who posted to message boards at IGN and other websites claming it's 'worth the wait', because really, I want to know what drugs they are taking.

This game is shoddy and should have never been released. You are better off playing earlier versions of CB than this tripe.

Loading time is a nightmare

I hate this game! It is fun to play but not worth the loading time. After a while the sound that it makes loading gets to your nerves. I can stand it anymore. Too bad I can't return this one.
I will try to exchange it

Programming at its worst

I am a huge fan of the Crash series. However, this latest installment created by "Traveller's Tales" rather than "Naughty Dog" left a LOT to be desired. Mainly the unacceptable amount of time spent staring at "LOADING" on your screen. In the first 15 minutes of play, I spent MORE THAN HALF of my time waiting for the game to load. INEXCUSEABLE! I don't know if this is their first game for the PS2 platform and they didn't know what they were doing or what, but I'll not blindly buy another title from them again without renting first. Get "Jak and Daxter" instead.

very very disappointed Crash fan

I have all the other Crash games and while they are sometimes frustrating and difficult, they have a certain charm that makes them very enjoyable. This game is completely lacking the charm. Crash jumps like his feet are leaden, the jumps are very imprecise and difficult to gauge, the levels are very slow paced and quite frankly, boring. The backgrounds are amazing and the ideas behind many of the levels are very good but the execution is awful. The bosses are incredibly difficult and just annoying, as well. I very much like the concept of the elementals but as I've said before, the execution and game playing are just too clunky and random. To be honest, I am so disappointed in this game that I nearly cried. My son, who is 3, is happy with it but he's frustrated because mommy and daddy can't seem to do the 'hard parts'.

This game is realy realy realy realy realy realy realy bad.
