Advantages: Great gameplay with plenty to do

Disadvantages: Dated Graphics

This game is one of the best platform games available for the Playstation One. Indeed it is definitely one of the games that took up a lot of my childhood. This game is a follow on from the first in the Crash series and we rejoin the story from the end of that game with the evil Cortex falling through space.

Crash is transported into Cortex's Warp room and must assist Cortex by collecting crystals from each level. There are at first five levels open to Crash but once you have completed these levels and beat the bad guy at the end, five more levels open up to you. There is one main crystal in each level, the most important crystal, but there are also others hidden in difficult places and gotten for various other things so there is a lot to do. Crash must jump, spin and slide his way through the many levels to collect them all, beating bad guys along the way.

This is a great game and although the graphics are now dated the gameplay still stands the test of time.

Summary: One of the best platform PS games
