| Ronboy's Full Review: Crash Team Racing for PlayStation 1 |
What can I say about Naughty Dog and their creation Crash Bandicoot negatively? Absolutely nothing!!! There hasn't been a family game this good since Super Mario Brothers. The whole series of Crash Bandicoot games have been fantastic, but with Crash racing they took it one step further and made this game remarkable.
My son has been a Crash Bandicoot fan for about 3 or 4 years now. Every time he would play he would look for something that both he and I could play, since there was nothing for us to do together he usually just had me take over for the hard parts that he couldn't do himself. Naughty Dog must have known about this dilemma, when their team sat down together brainstorming new ideas for this game.
I can hear their closed-door meeting now. "Okay, what's hot? What do our fans really want?" That's when their team pops out several ideas, "well, people love Nascar and racing. They love to race each other with Crash and Tails. Whoa, stop the press, what if we gave our fans a game dedicated to racing one another with the options to have a battle demolition and an adventure game all in one." What a concept!!!
That's just what the doctor ordered when they created the Crash racing game. When you sit down to play this game, you'll discover that hours have passed before even you realize it.
Fantastic graphics and funny sound effects continuously flow throughout the game, while you also discover that the scenarios always change. You have your choice to race with 8 different characters, they even tell you about the vehicle of their choice and its strengths and weaknesses. You can choose the tracks that you want to race and you even have an option to race against one other character, a group of characters, or your own ghost(your best time).
I picked this game up on sale for $35 and firmly believe that this is one of the best additions to my video game collection. My entire family loves this game and there's an appeal to both genders, so boys and girls can love it equally.
You want an excellent Christmas gift? Then race on out and pick this up, but don't "Crash" along the way, instead "crash" with your family in front of the television and have the time of your life.
