I am 11 and I first played this game at a friend's house, and could not stop. I heard that it was not being made anymore. I found it used and new on amazon. it arrived two days later. it is fun for everyone in my family, me, my little sister, my mom, and my dad.

The Wrath of Cortex could be better

I am a big Crash fan but this game wasn't what I expected for a next-gen sequel to the other PlayStation games. The graphics are pretty bad for an Xbox or GameCube game, and the levels are just a little bigger. It doesn't compete with other games anymore because it has stayed very much the same from the others, which were made in the '90s, even if this has new vehicles and bosses (There is also another unlockable move, which is tip-toeing, I used it once the entire game, and I didn't even need it). Speaking of boss battles, they were frustrating, but still quite fun. So to Crash fans, you will like how this game is more challenging than the other games, but will feel as if you've experienced the game before in its predecessors. However, Traveller's Tales did good in keeping it like the other games even if that became the thing I didn't like about it. It's got a good price, but I think it's only worth a rent to beat it, unless you are a "real" Crash fan and want to get 100% completion. If you're not a Crash fan, don't even bother with it.

XBOX has a lot of great games but lots of platformers are crap on xbox. lets face it thee trys lately have been awful. blinx the timesweeper whiplash zapper all that crap. thats why crash bandicoot the wrath of cortex is the best. the graphics are stunning. better than the ps2 version. basically the goal in cb woc is to go trough hublevels to get crystals. if you already played a crash bandicoot game you know the drill. there will also be timed relic challenges. and you will have to collect every box in a level to obtain a gem. once you collect every item in the game you can open up a new superworld that will give you another stage of levels. you can tell by the level layout that the developers were really using a lot of creativity. the boss battles are a nice addition. and another way cb woc towers over your mediocre platformer is the difficulty. crash has gotten signifigantly harder. remember how hard the original crash bandicoot was. well this game is even harder than that. so the difficulty is a nice change of pace for the levels. you get new veichles in the game too. a titansuit- you get acess to this veichle in- droid void crate balls of fire and cortex vortex. you also can use a jeep. youll get acess to this veichle in- jungle rumble and smokey and the bandicoot. youll also get acess to a submarine you can use it in- h20 and coral canyon. youll also get a copter pack you can use that in- farehinheit frenzy. you also get a scooter you can use that in- tsunami avalanche. you get a crash glider you use that in- tornado alley that sinking feeling crashstroids 4th boss level. and latly you a spherical moonball which you can use in- bammboozled eskimo roll medevil madness. also cb woc has shorter load times alot shorter load times than the ps2 version. overall with so many horrible platform games on the market. you should buy or at least rent this game.

wow

are you ready for crash bandicoots best adventure yet. if you answered yes you have to buy this game. it has wonderful eyedazziling graphics huge gameplay advancements and increased difficulty level. there are 30 much larger and much harder to explore worlds plenty of scenery and some of the best boss rounds in a game. crash gets to his disposal 8 new veichles. a spherical rollerball a submarine a firefly plane a jet glider a copter pack a sleek moter scooter and an enormus titan mech suit. all of these veichles are awesome theyre generally used to get out of a level. theres tons of secrets to be unlocked an a new hub world addition. you canget to it after collecting everything in all the levels. crash looks sounds and plays better than ever. if you ask me this is the best platform game on xbox. just think of what is a better mascot blinx the timesweeper or crash bandicoot. crash bandicoots sold millions of copies on psone and now hes proving himself on xbox. forget all the other lame platformers and get crash bandicoot the wrath of cortex.

if you have an xbox and like platformers its a no brainer

...This game is real cool the graphics are great,sometimes the camera angles trick you but you can hadle it right?Another thing is crash gets to ride cool vehicles from a crop duster to a giant robot suit.You can also use crash's sister coco in some levels and control her like crash.Some levels are frustrating and are hard to pass.Crash gets one new power tiptoeing so that nitro boxes that explode if you make sound wont blow up.Now I will tell you neo cortex'es scheme he makes a strong bandicoot named crunch powered by the evil masks of water,fire,earth,and wind.I tell you you should get this game it's really cool...you will have a lot of fun I promise!

A FUN GAME

Crash was fun and very challenging. The plot was also good but crash games always strugle with graphics. I would recomend renting it and if you like it buy it. It is a fun game.

Camera??? hello?

THis game is fun, but INSANELY frustrating. Its lack of camera movement makes this game a 3 of 5 stars. If it had it I'd give it 5. Its that bad. There is absolutely no distance persemption which is a major major flaw in my opinion. There are parts in the game were you pretty much have to die 10 times trying to figure out which direction to jump. Its puts this game back almost to the days of nintendo, original. The camera does what it wants to, if you don't like it, tough.

Other than that, given the type of game this is, its great. There are a lot different types of game play, and they are all pretty well thought out. Game play gets easier, in my opinion, as you go along. You get powers which help in all types of situation, making the last parts easier.

Music, is decent, fits the game so I can't complain.
9/10

Graphics, their also decent. They never catch your attention, especially since you only see what the makers want you to see.
6/10

Gameplay, This is the downfall. Camera, as you've read. Plus the extra character, koko lacks the powers you gain. This is very frustrating when going back for time trials on her levels. The powers are listed in the start menu, but sure don't work.
3/10

Replayability,
Its good. You have to replay it to beat it. You collect gems, then relics, colored gems, and beat bosses. You have to pass levels multiple times in order to beat the game. So you have to replay it, whether you like it or not.
8/10

Overall if your a patient person, go for it. Its a lot of fun, but if you the type that breaks controllers AVOID this game!!!

I take back what I said about this game

I changed my mind about the game. It is pretty fun and plus the console version of crash is better than the GBA version but that's okay.I'd give this game 4 stars.(usually it takes long to load to a level)
