    I like the game, but unless you’re comfortable with the cost to take advantage of the multiplayer functionality – the entire point of the game – I can’t recommend it.

    Passes the time of day in multi-player but single player is slow and dull. [Christmas 2006, p.101]

    Not actually broken in any way, it's just an oddly vacuous and simplistic take on the poisoned ground previously laid down by Hudson. [Nov 2006, p.69]

    Although it lets you wander around a game board and participate in various multiplayer challenges as your favorite Crash Bandicoot characters, the game ultimately crashes and burns because the majority of its minigames are lifeless and uninteresting.

    Just glad I kept the receipt, even brought a Nintendo DS just so I could play the latest crash game. This is by far the worst crash game I�39;ve ever played, just lifeless. Thank you vivendo, Dimps and Radical entertainment, you've killed the Bandicoot we all know and love. BRING BACK NAUGHTY DOG!… Expand

    Horrible. I loved ol' Crash back in the PS1 days, but the well has run dry on this franchise.

    Crash did not leave with a bang. Crash has really gone down hill since he isn't developped by Naughty Dog.

    I had no clue on what to do in this game I regret buying it.
