I'm 7 years old and I rented this game. This game is so much fun. I like all the guys you can fight. You can ride them and use them to fight other bad guys. Maybe you should try it.

Crash is back and ready for action!

After playing Twinsanity and CTTR, and being a bit disappointed with them, I had been wary of this latest game. But, being a huge Crash fan, I got it to add to my collection.

I love this game! It may not be as good as the original trilogy by Naughty Dog (that's probably impossible), but it has a good mix of action and gameplay.

Once you get the hang of defeating the Titans, it's great. Until then, you'll get a little frustrated as ten Titans and fifty (exaggeration) minions all take swipes at you. Here's a hint: use your heavy attack (hold down triangle) frequently. With this, you can jack someone even as hard to defeat as a Battler with some ease.

The bosses were good. I missed Dingodile but Radical says he'll be appearing again sometime soon. The hardest boss in the game, according to the majority of my Crash playing friends and myself, is Uka Uka. After him, defeating the final boss (Nina Cortex) isn't as difficult. Here's another hint: when playing Uka Uka, jack a Battler and use your cyclone attack. If done properly, this will completely stun him.

The levels are much more linear than Twinsanity was, which for me was a plus (some people prefer free-roaming though so they wouldn't enjoy it as much). They're also fairly long compared to previous games, so be prepared to spend a decent amount of time playing before you can save your progress. I recommend starting the game on Normal Mode although if you beat the game on Hard Mode (without 100% completion, unlike Normal Mode) you get an upgrade sooner than you would on the others. However, be warned, Hard Mode lives up to its name until you have enough experience playing it. Although on previous games it was hard to get a Game Over, it's not uncommon on this game even for seasoned Crash players.

If you ever get frustrated with the Titans killing you before you have a chance to strike back, my advice is to keep trying and jack as many as possible. When you jack a certain amount of the particular Titan you are fighting, you will unlock their skin. With this skin, you can completely stun them with one hit, making fighting them much easier.

I highly recommend this game to both people new to Crash and people who have been following it since it began. Have fun!

This was my first time every playing a Crash Bandicoot game. I had never really paid too much attention to them because I was usually more interested in games like Devil May Cry, Castlevania, Prince of Persia and so on and so forth. But then Crash came, well, crashing into my life in the form of a rental brought to me by my youngest nephew. At first I didn't want anything to do with it because I was not sure it was going to be all that great as the commercials made it look. But the nephew begged me and I just couldn't say no to him. I pretty much figured that I should just play, get it over with and go on to bigger and better things. I. Was. Wrong!!! I became enraptured by it the moment I hijacked my first monster. Let the mayhem ensue!!! I was having so much fun that I kind of stole it away from the nephew with the determination to finish before he could. I am only on level 17 sadly. The characters are so much fun and just hilarious. I had to kick myself in the seat of my pants for being so judgemental before I even gave it a chance. I am set on finishing that's for sure! Now all I have to do is either keep renting it or stop being cheap and just purchase it.
Wrap up:
I give this game a big fat smooch for being so awesome and for those who just aren't sure, go ahead and give it a chance! What do you have to lose?

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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!
