Augh! I found the first few levels of Crash 1 harder than the 3rd world levels Crash 2 and 3. It also uses a system of having to pass one level to get to the next. This becomes frustrating because I found myself having to repeat the same level over and over again because I either died or... hell, I don't know. I just had to repeat the level because it wouldn't let me continue.

Also, there is no giant screen where you can save. You have to find the bonus platform, and make it all the way through the bonus part to save. Happen to fall through the cracks on the bonus? Sorry! You're just going to have to hope you don't die or else you'll have to repeat EVERYTHING. OVER. AGAIN.

A little kid is going to get frustrated and give up on this game if you get it for him. Be nice to your children. Buy them Crash 2. Or 3. Or games from the Spyro series, that would work too.

If you really really want to play all the games in the Crash series just rent it.. even though it's dirt cheap to buy.. (haha) Put the money towards something BETTER.

I tried the Crash 2 PlayStation game about 1998 and it was delightful. It was, in fact, so delightful that I looked around for the first part to start from the proper point.

When I started playing the first part, I was disappointed by the difference of the story, but, still, It was a nice game.

The graphics are excellent. The story is original. It speaks about a genetically engineered dog, named Crash, that resembles human beings. This genetic procedure was done by Dr Cortex (or more precisely by his degraded assistant). Then Dr Cortex goes on the produce a new female version of this Crash. Of course crash falls in love with her. Dr Cortex, being a wicked soul, parts between the two and then Crash needs to go through so many obstacles to reach his lover.

So many levels are divided into islands, and each set of levels is followed by a bad boss. Some are hard and some are easy. It depends in your skill in such games. The story is concluded by a battle between this Crash and Dr Cortex. If you win then you got it.

And to complicate life even more, the designers introduced the concept of gaining gems. If you get all the gems you can continue the game in a new fashion. I aint saying it 'cause I don't want to spoil things for you. To attain these gems is a difficult task. As for me, I got them but after being kicked in the teeth for it. You should not even dream of getting the gems in order of levels. No, mon ami, some times you have to go to a certain advanced level to get a "green gem," for instance, to get the gem in the, say, fourth level. You would have to check the net for the tricks, dirty if I may, and the hidden places. Good luck in that.

There is "aku-aku," which is a mask that is considered as an extra life if you get touched by any of the enemies. Take 3 aku-akus and you become invincible for some seconds and you kill any of the enemies by a mere touch.

Of course, there are saving stations. You do not get to save after every level. This is a drawback. Saving stations are also level you have to jump, crush, step on dynamite, and so on. If you fall down, you cannot save, you have to go to the next saving station. It is hare, I am telling you.

The game is great, and if you win with a 100 per-cent then you are the man!
Crash 2 (5 Stars):
The Best Game Ever:
This game has everything the first part lacked. It has even better graphics. This was the first one of the crash series I tried, and it was fun. Before that, I was hooked on fighting games, like street fighters, and tekken, but they are not that fun after playing it a 100 times or so. In this game you can spend as much time without losing interest.

It is, more or less, like the first part. There is aku-aku, boxes to crash, gems (more difficult), new bosses after each floor. And by the by, this game is divided into 5 floors, each floor with 5 doors, each door with a different adventure. You can finish the game, like I did the first time, without collecting gems, but it is not that fun. Hint: If you break all the boxes of one level you are rewarded a gem. There are hidden levels for some gems, you would have to consult the internet for it. Good luck in that.

In this part you can save after each level, it is easier in that respect. I find the gems easier to collect than in the first forbidding game. The designs of the adventure is by far better than the firs.

The story line is change a little bit. Instead of the "Pamela Anderson" of a lover Crash had, he gets a more geeky "Meg Ryan" of a sister. Dr Cortex is still missing things up. The assistant from the first part does not appear except when he tries to communicate Crash to warn him from Cortex. You want to know more? Get the gems first.

There is also a sixth hidden floor. You would have to reach it by a trick, and again check the net for that.

The game was the best I have ever tried. It makes my life harder, since I cannot find better games to play anymore. It will make you look for other adventures of Crash.

Crash Bandicoot.

I love everything about this game. Theave systems are notas good as liked, but, it's better then not being able to save at all. I like these Crash Games so much that I made books that my family loves to read about the series. I also like the bosses, but I am a little upset that you don't see the bosses in very many other games. I can say that I am disappointed about it not being sold in very many stores. I can say that I also am disappointed about the way some kids judge the graphics and unfair task of getting all the gems. It's fair and if you're so upset about it enter this password:Triangle[4],X,square,triangle[4],square,X,triangle,O,triangle[3],O,square,triangle,X[4]. There that will give you everthing. I can say that everyone is entittled to thier own opinion, but it's not like it's the end of the world because it's not perfect to everyone's opinion. I have simply that much to say about this.

The game that made me get a Playstation(in 1998).

This is the second best Crash. The best is Crash 2. The complaints what people will go on are being able to move backwards and forwards like a 2D game, Well it was back in 1995 or so. The game isn't hard until 65% through.

Buy this if you want a very good platformer.

The First Crash Game.....

isn't really that good. Though you should buy it if you are a fan of Crash, but if you are just looking for a good game, buy Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back or Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex.

A Classic

I was started on the Crash series when my 11 year old son offered me to play "Crash Bandicoot: the Wrath of Cortex" with him. I plyed for about an hour and I was hocked on it from then on. The origanal Crash game is my second favorite of the series(only to Twinsanity). I love it because the bosses (along with the levels) Are not easy but you don't spend days at one level. A big chip is the saving. TO save, first you have to get all three girl bandicoot tokens, then you have to get through the bonus level!

An Expected Gift

This game was purchase to present as a gift with the station which the Amazon seller change their decision to sell. Upon purchasing the station the children will enjoy the game. They are already excited for the game, disappointed for the station, but are waiting with great expectation for a new game station purchase.

Really three 1/2 stars

This game was fun and all but it was hard as heck. It was so hard that I had to put in a cheat to get all levels so I could skip the levels I couldn't beat. I don't know who the people can beat it because I can't. I mean does the guy who created this game expect us to beat it? I mean you can't even crawl. YOU HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAME!!! but beware it's the hardest game ever.
