Crash Bash (PS)

Crash Bash is the fifth game in the famous Crash Bandicoot series. Crash Bash is unlike most other Crash Bandicoot games as it is a party game and basically lots of mini-games. Crash Bash is also the last Crash Bandicoot game on the original Playstation. In Crash Bash there are 3 different modes: Adventure (1-2 players), Battle (1-4) and Tournament (1-4). The game is definitely most fun with other people like all party games (similar to a real party - the more the better!) The main mode is Adventure where the player has to play through the mini games and get a set amount of gems, crystals and trophies to play the boss level. Once you have ...  Read the complete review

Crash Bash is the fifth outing of the Crash Bandicoot series of games for the Playstation. It’s the same old story of good versus evil. The story follows a challenge between Uka Uka (evil mask) and Aku Aku (good mask) who use the old familiar characters from previous Crash games as their pawns. Aku recruits the loveable but stupid Crash Bandicoot and Coco (Crash’s bit of stuff), whilst Uka bandies around the ‘baddies’ with the likes of N.Cortex, N.Bryo, Dingodile, Gorillaroo, and Tiny Tiger et al to do his dirty work. Crash Bash follows the same winning format as Crash Team Racing but instead of races there are individual games or ...  Read the complete review

I've gotta admit that Crash Bandicoot (the mad marsupial and star of 4 previous games on PS1) is a very productive cash... um... bandicoot... for Sony. They know that whether they publish a good or a bad game, people are gonna buy it because of Crash's reputation.

The production team that made this game is not in fact the team that made the previous ...  Read the complete review

The Crash Bandicoot crew are all present once again. Crash, Coco, Dr. Neo, Cortex and co are back for Crash’s fifth visit to the Playstation. Naughty Dog produced the first four games but this one has been taken over by Eurocom software that have tried to keep Crash’s theme but have injected some ideas of their own. There are three games called ‘Crash Bash’, ‘Pogo-A-Gogo’ and ‘Jungle Bash’ which require a different number of skills to win. Whether deflecting balls from your goal, ramming your opponents off and ice ring or pogo sticking around the arena trying to secure as many squares as possible they are very ...  Read the complete review

Crash Bandicoot has tried to be what Mario is to Nintendo only for the Playstation , although he in recent times has fell into obscurity he still tries to rise up now and again with a new game. And in the very same vein of Mario Party, Comes Crash Bash. A collection of mini-games where you as Crash compete in all kinds of different challenges and missions. Graphics - They look quite good, not as smooth or complete as other Crash games for the Playstation though, with the many different camera angles the graphics seem to have been sacraficed a little to make the game flow at a faster pace. Gameplay - It depends on what mini-game you play as all can ...  Read the complete review
