4 Stars Good Fun & Not As Bad As Some Gamers Make It Out 2 Be
Good Fun & Not As Bad As Some Gamers Make It Out 2 Be!

Crash will never be the same since Naughty Dawg producers went off and started creating other games. However, the Crash franchise still lives on and you can expect a new Crash title every holiday season. Though these new release will be nowhere as epic as a new Mario title on Nintendo.

Crash of the Titans is a fun & entertaining game. The graphics are nice. Not groundbreaking, but they look great on the Xbox 360. I kinda wish Crash had a voice – instead he just makes idiotic grunts, moans, and other useless noises. The game starts off with the gang just hanging out when all of a sudden his sister gets kidnapped. From than on, all hell breaks loose. The levels are huge, immersive, and simply a lush view for the eyes. The colors in the game are really bright & just POP!

The game tries its hand at adding new features in, which i really enjoyed. Crash will probably never be as original as he was during his Naughty Dawg days, but still nevertheless an excellent game that deserves a chance. For Twenty bucks on amazon, i simply can not complain. Pick this up and add it to your library. I know you will enjoy it.

5 Stars Great Game with
It’s a great game for smaller kids. While it might not take weeks to get through it (like another reviewer pointed out), this is a very cute game and it has a huge replayability factor, which in my mind is much more important than going through painfully difficult levels in order to “justify the purchase”. Especially when younger kids are involved. So, I consider it ideal for younger kids, and the 2-person team play option is also a lot of fun. And again, it goes in and comes out of the drawer over and over again. That’s a good thing.

4 Stars Cool, clean fun
Among so many violent games, this game presents great entertainment for the whole family. It is not so easy to play, for absolutely new gamers, like my wife :-) , but it is fun to spend a few hours in front of the game. Some characteristics of the series which I considered a huge problem (like rare saves) have been fixed, the camera works fine, and it presents difficulty without frustration. The graphics are pretty nice too.

I highly recommend it if you want to play a game that has little or no violence, since we don’t have Mario on the xbox360, this is the closest it gets.

4 Stars Fun game for Youngsters!
I got this game for our 4 year old, believe it or not. He was actually asking for it ever since he tried the downloadable demo of this game on our Xbox 360.

The game is really fun for kids. My two older kids, age 10, played a lot, and especially fun is Co-Op mode, which is great and not often found (unfortunately) on many games.

February 13th, 2009 Xbox Reviews No comments
Though sales slow down after the frenzied holiday season, the relative placement of hardware sales didn't see much of a change in January. Once again, the Nintendo systems combined sold more than every other system put together. Again, the Nintendo systems took top billing, the Xbox 360 in the middle, and the PlayStation family at the bottom. The Wii overtook the DS in sales, and the PlayStation ...
