Advantages: good game, nice RPG Disadvantages: tricky in some places... ha, this should be a good thing -_-'
...review is about the game Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex, this is a not bad game. I got this game for my 14th birthday, along with other games and the XBOX console. This game is about Crash Bandicoot trying to defeat Cortex once and for all. In the other Crash Bandicoot games, he never defeats Cortex, he always knocks him out, or lets him escape, all same story. The game stars the characters of Crash Bandicoot, Coco (Crash Bandicoot's Extremely ... ...Crash Bandicoot in his travels). These are all great good guys, i'm not a super fan of Crash Bandicoot, but it still entertains me when I’m bored, or fancy playing an RPG on my XBOX, then Crash.... here I come.
Crash Bandicoot and his Sister Coco, have come to a far place to stop Neo Cortex (the main bad guy in this game), they use the same warpers as from the 3rd Crash Bandicoot, you use the teleporters to get to different worlds, so you can find ...

Advantages: Good little platform game, addictive and challenging Disadvantages: Can become tiresome and difficult to complete
For those who are unaware, Crash Bandicoot is a long running title that began on the playstation. Now in yet another incarnation, it has been ported onto the XBox - and quite well actually.
CONTROLS:
The draw of this game is the fact that you can pick it up and play in seconds. There are no fast button combinations to master and you can basically run through the early levels to pass them without any difficulty. Smart gamers will soon wisen up and
... ...You use the left analogue stick to move, with the buttons use to jump and 'flatten' things should you wish. You can also attack things while standing up, although they have to be close. Good for breaking boxes and such like, harder to defeat enemies as the timing has to be just right.
Other than that, it's pretty simple really.
THE GAMEPLAY:
The game is based on a simple idea, which is what makes it so addictive. You basically have to get from ...

Advantages: Great game for young children and adults alike. Disadvantages: The camera angle can be a little difficult to judge jumps correctly.
...much room for error.
Graphical Crash looks like it has been ported straight over from the PSX2, this is one area that could have been improved.
The game has been more targetted at young children than adults and besides the jumping sequences it is easy to get into.
As to whether this game could beat Blinx or Taz, I think that this is on par with Taz Wanted but falls short of beating Blinx The Time Sweeper.
If you have young children, then this ...

Advantages: Fluid Gameplay, Cars Planes and Rollerballs, Good Bonus Levels, Well Animated Graphics, Excellent Imaginitive Scenes. Disadvantages: Fiddly Controls, Repetitive Gameplay, Uninspired Music, Difficulty towards end, Static Enemies, Camera Angles Somewhat Clumsy.
The somewhat outmoded series of Crash Bandicoot cartoon style games reaches its climax with the latest edition The Wrath of Cortex. After Being Beaten too many times by the grinning Bandicoot Dr.Cortex decites to create a super-monster called Crash, a big bandicoot with a bigger grin, to destroy the bizarre creature once and for all. As Crash fights for his life in this imaginatively animated world the Gameplay is continuous and occasionally witty ... ...by clumsy views and controls. The levels move well the first time you play them with surprises abound, but nothing is that new and often a boring level ends up getting played dozens of time before it can be completed. So, in other words, The Wrath of Cortex is good for a month, but soon becomes tiresome. ...
