PlayStation 2 version

Nothing really Original about it

The Good
There are more levels were most fun ways of gameplay like last one did. The graphics are nice but not really detailed but not to be. The game introduces a new character to the series to fight named "Crunch". I did like the boss battles being more original.

The Bad
I miss the simple difficulty that makes it fun to pick and play. The levels have areas were you can just die of cheap death. The first power-up you get is just lame as you only walk on Nitro boxes. The loading times are so long every time were you can just use the bathroom or drink to past the time, it can take up almost 2 minutes, however I never own the re-release version of the game were the load times are quicker. There is really no nothing new like last time were it just the same game.

The Bottom Line
This is just really an upgraded version of "Crash 3" as it has the same elements in it. This game is only for Crash fans only and not really other player that is not into platform games. As a positive note, I do think this the last game to be good in the series as Universal ditched making the games.
