Over the few years before his PS2 debut, Crash Bandicoot: the Wrath of Cortex, he's appeared in various PSone titles--usually Mario wannabe platformers, but there've also been blatant Mario Party and Mario Kart rip-offs in the shapes of Crash Bash and Crash Team Racing. Never less than fun, yet never a realistic contender when compared against the genre-defining Mario 64, Crash has sometimes received a fairly rough ride from the press. With original developers Naughty Dog passing on the chance to produce a PS2 version, Travellers Tales have created this effort, and in terms of gameplay, there's no progression here whatsoever. This is Crash as we know and tolerate him, albeit with fancier lighting effects. All the familiar faces return, including (obviously, given the title) arch-goon Dr Cortex. And it's great, as it goes. Ignore the on-rails nature of the gameplay and the dismally slow loading times; it's unlikely you'll come across a jauntier, more ridiculous, stupid-brilliant game for some time. As well as the usual platform action, there are mine-cart chases á la Indiana Jones & The Temple of Doom, hysterically playable Marble Madness-style levels, secrets, bonuses, vehicles, new moves; all kinds of everything, as Dana might have put it if she were into video games rather than winning the 1970 Eurovision Song Contest. Simple to pick up and play, crammed with outlandish ideas, colourful, loud and a laff riot into the bargain, it would be a hard heart that didn't warm to this old 'coot. --Steve Colton

and was taking some well-earned time off. So now here he is, with him super-smart sis, Coco, and friendly companion, Aku Aku, soaking up a few rays on the beach. But, as we all know, diabolical evil always finds a way to ruin Crashâ??s Day.

Advantages: Very addictive Disadvantages: A bit too easy
...have a gameboy Advance with Crash Bandicoot xs you can link up to the gamecube and play a minigame.
The Graphics of the game are excellent also the gameplay is very smooth. If you have ever played any of the previous crash bandicoot games and liked them then this is for you. The music is funky the levels are bright and jazzy, (its a feel good game) There are over 30 levels, 6 bosses and each time you destroy a boss you get a new control/move for ... ...boxes in the levels for crash to destroy and they contain lives, health and fruit (if you collect 100 wumpa fruit you get a life.) there are TNT boxes and NITRO boxes which if you bump into them you die.

Advantages: Its great fun for all, links to the gameboy advance Disadvantages: You wont want to put it down
...up wishing he had not. Crash bandicoot the wrath of cortex is a fun game for all the family, even my toddler can play, well run around anyway. I found this game to be better than the other crash games, I did enjoyed them aswell.
Crash bandicoot the wrath of cortex is easy enough for my nephew aged 9 to be able to play and hard enough for me, a game addict to be able to enjoy. The graphics are brilliant and it is a brightly coloured game.
The game ... ...With this versionof crash bandicoot you can play Crash's sister Coco for the first time in any crash bandicoot game.
I would recomend this game to absolutely everyone who likes gaming. The only problem is you can only complete it a few times before it loses it fun edge and just becomes boring. ...
