  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Everybody love Crash Bandicoot:he's funny,he's one of the most important charachters of mondial console,he represents the GOOD.Cortex the BAD.Their challenge can't finish,lucky!After three incredible adventures in technicolor scenaries Crash enters in race's world.This time he's versus Nitros Oxide,a green ugly alien that wanna conquer the world.OH MY GOD!Like Redman said,"Time 4 sum aksion".Doctor Cortex and Bandicoot mix their forces for defeat this new enemy!Incredible,ya?
The player can choose 8 basic charachters:Cortex,Crash,Coco (Crash's sista),Pura,Polar,N-Gin,DingoDile,Tiny Tiger.There are many game modalities:for the training you can use "Arcade",you will run for defeat the hothers;"Adventure" is the real story and you must win trophies,defeat bosses and DEFEAT OXIDE...Winning gems you will get new charachters like Fake crash and Pinstripe;in "Time Trial" the player must finish 3 laps in a determinate time for unlock N.Trophy's challenge..defeated that blue doctor he must defeat Oxide's ghost (not easy...)for obtain a platinum star.SHOW HOW ARE STRONG YOUR WHEELS!!!
It's a good game,dedicated to all Crash's fans and for who want relax himself playing to playstation.



5 out of 5 stars Annoying & Amazing   August 13, 2005
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This Game is so fun, it has all kinds of game modes, including: VS. Battle, Time Trial, Adventure. V.S lets multi player action on the race course. Pick the track, & let 'er rip! Battle mode lets multible players go to an arena, & duke it out with the regular game weapons, & some special ones. Time trial lets you race to...well to see who can get the better time, but if you get a good enough time Dr. N Tropy will callenge you to a race against his best time. If you beat it, then you can race Nitros Oxide's (the bad guy) best time on that track. Adventure is the main deal here. There are 5 areas of adventure: N. Sanity Beach, Glacier Park, The Lost Ruins, Citadel City, And Gemstone Valley. Each Area has a boss to beat (except Gemstone valley, but Oxide counts, right?) & each time u beat a boss he gives you a Boss Key. Collect four, then race against Nitros Oxide. You can pick some of your favorite characters: Polar, N.Gin, Crash, Coco, Dr. Neo Cortex,(!) Tiny Tiger ( my favorite) Dingodile, & Pura. Not to mention some BONUS Characters, & tracks!!! To sum it all up...

Pros: VERY entertaining, keeps u on for hours, a lot differant than other cart games.

Cons: Some things are VERY hard to do in the game, There seems to be NO way to get Nitros Oxide.



5 out of 5 stars Best Kart-Racer I've EVER Played!   July 23, 2005
THE INTRODUCTION OF MY REVIEW AND THE STORYLINE OF THE GAME
I'm completely aware that Nintendo invented the way this game works, but I like this version better then Mario Kart. Crash Team Racing (CTR) is much more creative. The storyline is that there's this new alien from outer space named N. Oxide who's come to earth to brag about his racing skills and is challenging Crash, friends, and some of his past foes to see who the best driver is. Of course, they all think that they should be the one to race Oxide.

THE RACES
Of course, this means trouble. You must choose your racer from Crash, Coco, Polar, Paura, Cortex, N. Gin, Tiny, and Dingodile. Then you must outrace the other 7 competitors in 16 races to gain the right to race Oxide. Don't think you get away from facing bosses in the game. There are 5 bosses (including Oxide) that you must race. When you have 4 trophies, you have to race Ripper Roo. When you have 8 you have to race Papu Papu. When you have 12 you have to race Komodo Joe. When you have 16 you have to race Pinstripe. When you beat Pinstripe, he gives you the last key that you need to unlock the front door of Oxide's space-ship. After you've beaten Oxide, he'll tell you that you have to collect all of his time relics (introduced in Crash Bandicoot: Warped) and beat him again to prove that you're the fastest driver. I never managed to beat the game with all the relics, so I can't tell you what happens after you've beaten him with all of those.

THE CONTROLS
Crash's controls are very solid. They used to spoil me a lot. But the controls in this game are very basic and easy to use. The LEFT ANALOG STICK and the DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS steer your go-kart, the X button accelerates, the SQUARE button puts the brakes on, the CIRCLE button uses any weapons that you can collect, I never paid attention to what the TRIANGLE button does, so I couldn't tell you, I don't remember what any of the shoulder buttons do, so I can't tell you that either. But they respond amazingly well.

THE TRACKS
There are 17 tracks plus several bonus tracks that I can't count them all. I know that the boss tracks are Roo's Tubes, Papu Pyramid, Dragon Mines, Hot Air Skyways, and Oxide Station.

THE MULTIPLAYER FEATURE
This is the first Crash game to feature a multiplayer mode. I'm going to list all the things that you can do with 2-4 players.
You can race through any of the tracks that you have unlocked in story mode with or without computer players and you can battle in an arena. However, to play with 3-4 players, you must have a multi-adapter.

THE CLOSING TO MY REVIEW
All-In-All, CTR is a great racing game. I really recommend it.



5 out of 5 stars Great Game!   February 27, 2005
A great game for all ages. My 5-year old sister likes it, my 41-year-old uncle likes it. When you race, don't concentrate on trying to get all the weapons to shoot people in front of you, just try to race and butt in front of people. Eventually, you will collect weapons and defence mechanisms. Those are in the Question Mark box. The life points are in the blank box. And always chose a good guy. The bad guys are hard to steer. The god guys are easier to steer but slower. If you can steer good, you'll win (it doesn't matter how fast you are really). I reccomend this game to everyone, especially thrill seekers and video game freaks who just want to master every game.


5 out of 5 stars Fun to play   November 24, 2004
Fun to play especially if you have a young child. You'll enjoy playing this with your kids and they'll love playing it too.
