We have long been fans of Crash Bandicott. This is just another favorite for my son and I.

Different but still hours of entertainment

We are big Crash fans... been playing since we got our first Playstation (13 years!). We have conquered all the previous Crash games and continue to get them out over and over. We were so excited when we heard this one was coming, and it did not disappoint! This Crash is different from the old ones... now it's more 3D and there are lots more features you can use with the controller. For instance, Crash used to only be able to jump and spin, and as you moved up in the game you would get more "advanced" features like double jumps and even a gun to shoot. This Crash starts off with kicks and punches and advances quickly to more exciting features as the game progresses. Instead of falling off cliffs all the time, this Crash can grab the edges of things and pull himself back up (not to say you CAN'T fall off, just there is more forgiveness and excitement with this one.) Also, you don't have the "tunnel effect" the old Crash's had... in other words, the worlds you go through are more wide open. The only thing that is a little hard to get used to is that this Crash uses more hand-to-hand combat. It just feels different than jumping on someone. You actually have to punch and kick someone to stun and/or kill them. Maybe it feels more human and less like a fantasy, so it feels sort of mean. But then you get desensitized to it, like always, and can go on trying to get through the worlds and achieving your missions. I highly recommend this for Crash veterans and newbies alike. It's lots of fun and doesn't get boring like 90% of the other games out there... this game keeps you entertained for hours and hours and weeks and weeks (maybe months!) until you get to the end.

Fun, user-friendly

I bought this for my 8 year old who LOVES it. It is our first 'Crash' game and has turned out to be really fun. It has a lot of action and is just the right level of challenge- not so much that you're frustrated yet enough to make the game last and to feel excited when you conquer another level. Hints are spoken aloud as well as printed on the screen so younger children can easily figure out what to do. It's fun to play alone or with a friend and the 2nd player can easily drop in or out. I like the 'piggy-back' feature which allows the 2nd player to jump into Crash's backpack if they don't know how to play a certain area as well. Very user-friendly game.

Different take on the Crash series

Crash of the Titans is similar to the others in the series but there is some differences. One new thing you can do is fight titans and control them. Another difference is that Crash has tattoos, but who cares. The storyline is that Cortex has transformed the animals on Crashes island home into horrific mutant beasts. He can hijack these monsters and use their powers for good. Crashes sister Coco has been captured by the nefarious Cortex and you must rescue her. The graphics look really good on the PS2. Anytime during the game a second player can join in. Crash of the Titans is yet another good installment of the Crash series. If your thinking about buying this game you should buy it immediately. It is rated E10+ for cartoon violence, crude humor and mild language.

More difficult than previous versions.

Haven't had much play time with it but so far it seems to be a welcome departure from the previous versions.

Love That Crash!

I've always loved the Crash Bandicoot games, and this was no exception.
It was a pleasant departure from it's former incarnations, that could get extremely frustrating, not once did anyone throw the controller across the living room!

The gameplay was smooth, the different levels were entertaning, and jacking the Titans was fun.

My only complaint was that it is a little on the short side, but I liked it well enough to buy both the ps2 and psp version!

A Work of Art

I was a fan of Crash from the start his first three Naughty Dog titles were great then things began to get bad after Crash was bought out it seemed as though Vivendi Universal thought that they could live on the popularity of Crash and Spyro and that alone. Then they tried gimmicks "lets liven up these old characters, it can't be our games the characters must be wrong." They came up with Twinsanity a relatively good game but it just didn't have... Well it's hard to describe but let just say it just wasn't right.

Finally though Sierra got to make it's mark on the property. And boy have they. Crash of the Titans has to be the most visually stunning and free-roaming Crash title to date. It takes a Crash Bandicoot gaming experience to a level which it hasn't reached in years.
The sound effects are great as is the voicing for characters and certain enemies is great. As you approach enemies you can here them having a conversation. The music also has that signature sound you expect from
Crash games.
Now you may be thinking if the game is like that how must the load times be, nearly non-existent, it's wonderful no sooner do you choose your level and it's loaded an ready to play. And events faze in seamlessly.

Overall this is a work of art and an excellent game you'd have to be crazy not to like it.

Good but not great

I have gotten every crash bandicoot game so far. So when this game came out I had to get it. I thought that it was cool that they added a co-op option. Some of the bad parts were it did seem a bit repetitive and really didn't even feel like their were bosses. In previous crash games I have enjoyed the whole warp room thing. I hope in the next game they go back to the warp rooms. Over all I thought this game was good, just not great. It really didn't feel like a crash bandicoot game to me though.

Pretty fun game, but very easy

This game adds a douse of combat to the classic Crash Bandicoot performer style. This game has great graphics, nice character design, and good music. But all the levels are kind of the same, the game is easy to beat, and it is just very easy. Buy it if you are a die-hard Crash fan like me, but for everyone else, I would suggest a trip to the local Blockbuster.

A big disappointment

The first three reviews are surely from company shills. Where's the creaty of the previous games? In short, Crash of the Titans is stupid, repetitive, unimaginative and boring. Don't waste a cent even renting this game. I'm so glad I didn't trust these reviews and just rented before buying. A question for the new owners: if you're going to put time and money into designing a video game, why not do it right - like the old games? Wow. Sad !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
