A classic that still has a special place in my heart. I loved playing this game when I was a kid, and I enjoy playing it on my ps3! Thank you for this masterpiece Sony!

It rules. It is cool. My first PSOne game.

It ROCKS!

A classic. Best psone game ever. Too bad Crash's latest games haven't lived up to it.

So many years later, and it's STILL a great game, equal with the first two. After the first 4, it was so badly downhill its not even funny.

The best thing about this game is the beautiful visuals that rest in the levels. In my oppinion, the visuals of each level get more beautiful by the numbers!

Amazing, graphics, gameplay, value, game. The best PS1 game I've ever played. (I'm a Crash fan)

'i loved this game when i was young but i can't play it anymore because my playstation broke(now i have a 360) this game is even better than Mario 64 in my opinion...too bad the newer crash games suck monkey balls.

8.9 The best Crash game on the ps1, behind the first one of course.

Very good game. with very good graphics and gameplay.
One of my firsts game on PSX and i love this. All Crash Bandicoot is amazing series on PSX.
Seriously i advice this game.

I own a PS2 and every PlayStation game (includes #6) and a GBA and The Huge Adventure. All are great, but this one, the graphics, and the several modes of play make THIS the one I would review.

It may have been a long time ago since I last played this game, but I really enjoy it. RAWKS!

Absolutely brilliant. The best platform of all time and I MEAN it.

Perfect game for PSOne. Addictive and still worth playing from time to time. One of only two games to "survive" the transition to PS2.

Whoever dectracted points for a bad story is an idiot, because we all know Crash Bandicoot games aren't about the story. A great game and I still play it today on my PS1. Took a mark off for a few minor quips, like minimal control issues when swimming and bit of an unfair difficulty spike in the fifth warp room. Otherwise a great game.

Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped is a fun PlayStation game. Building on the previous game Crash 2: Cortex strikes Back, Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped bring a few additions like new vehicle missions and new environments like Ancient Egypt and Arabian Times, to run, spin and jump through. The villain of the game, Dr Cortex is now in big trouble and his booming and displeased boss, Uka Uka, is not happy with him because he keeps losing to the heroic marsupial and now he enlists the help of Dr Nefarious Tropy to help him retrieve the crystals and gems using Tropy's time Twister machine. Crash and Coco now have to recover these crystals from the different time periods and Dr Cortex's minions - who act as boss battles - try to stop them. The game play - for the platform parts - is similar to previous Crash games: You go around in a warp room, completing levels and gathering crystals and gems. This hasn't really evolved a lot but there are powers that Crash can obtain from beating Dr Cortex's minions which can help him with completing the levels. The vehicle sections are nice and definitely add more variety to the otherwise similar game play. These vehicle sections are actually fun like the Hog races where Crash races on a Motorcycle from point A to point B and try to come in first place to earn a crystal. The racing doesn't provide Crash Team Racing thrills and the racing is much simpler but they its nice that they have included them. The Plane levels (One you play as Coco) are fun and involve you destroying blimps or Red Barons and whats funny is when you shoot down one of the enemy planes trying to bring you down, the whistling sound emitted when they start to descend with black smoke pouring out of their destroyed plane is just plain awesome. A good standard plane shooter this is but it is over too quickly. The Jet Ski levels with Coco are a bit too tiresome and boring. A good, helpful addition to the Crash series is that now you can see how many boxes there are in a level (notified by the box counter at the top of the screen when you press Triangle) instead of (like Crash 2) showing how many boxes you've smashed and not showing how many there are in a level so its much easier to know how many boxes are left in a level instead of going towards the end of the level then looking at the boxes needed to smash. A good addition to this game is the inclusion of Time trial events which involve you running through a completed level as fast as you can and when completed in a fast enough time, you are rewarded with a sapphire, gold or platinum relic depending on how fast you got through the level. There are time crates to smash to freeze the time for the allocated number of seconds that it reads on the box (1, 2 or 3 seconds). This adds a little bit of replay value to the game because you can try and try again (you dont lose a life if you die while in Time trial mode) to perfect your run and shave milliseconds off your time. As I said before the platform game play in Crash 3 may be similar to Crash 2 but this is not necessarily a bad thing. The game play is smooth and the controls are perfect and the graphics are really nice and the environments are varied and full of detail. The art direction is inspired: Naughty Dog really captured the look of these different time zones. The water effects in Cocos Jet Ski levels are fluid and look so realistic. The enemy designs are just as imaginative as ever and the death sequences that youre treated to when Crash dies in various ways by touching an enemy or get squashed by repeatedly closing and opening doors only adds to the comedic factor that this game holds. All the platform goodness from the previous 2 Crash games are present in this game with the hilarious enemies you face, the sound of TNT crates ticking down ready to go boom and the music (composed by the same people who did the previous 2) is memorable and fits each of the environments in this game. The bosses are really fun to fight and present a good challenge and also a much more improved final boss battle with *Spoiler* than the last game also presents a tough but satisfying end to the Crash Trilogy. The voice acting is pretty neat especially the dark and gloomy voices of Dr Cortex and Uka Uka. Dr Cortex may be no be as threatening as he was in the last game but he can still packs a mean punch when it comes to personality. Uka Uka however, steals the show for being one of the best antagonist ever with his booming voice and gritty looks. Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped is a fitting end to the Naughty Dog Crash Bandicoot Trilogy and its very sad we will probably never get another Crash game like this again. *Sob*… Expand

The third time is definatly the charm in the Crash Bandicoot series, as the adventures are bigger and better than ever. Created by Naughty Dog (who developed the previous 2 instalments), Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped takes you to a whole new world. If you've played Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, then you will you find this game is pretty much the same but there are some new features, these include Coco (Crash's sister) becoming a playable character as well as some new moves which you learn as progress further into the game. The game starts off with Crash in a time twister chamber with five different warp chambers, each have five different levels. Some are basic running around and spinning your way through enemies, whilst avoiding bottomless pits, TNT and nitro crates. Other levels require you to ride vehicles like a motorbike, Jet Ski or biplane as well as scuba diving in the deep oceans, or riding a tiger along the Great Wall of China. Each level has a crystal, collect five of these to open up the boss portal. Each boss you defeat gains you a new power and unlocks the gate to the next chamber. These powers can help you to tackle some of the really difficult levels later in the game. There are gems (including five coloured ones) to collect as well which can be obtained by destroying all of the crates or searching in hidden areas. Relics can be awarded as well, these consist of three different colours sapphire, gold and platinum. Sapphires are easy to win, but gold means you are one speedy bandicoot and platinum are only achieved by those who are true masters. Graphically the game has improved over its predecessor and one of the really impressive effects is the water levels, where you can see great reflective waves splashing up and down. According to the developers you can see polygons from a bigger distance than before which creates a unique background. In the future levels for example you can see all buildings and pistons around you, it feels like you are trapped in the middle of a giant city. The music and sound effects are brilliant and each one fits perfectly with each level. Overall great story, great gameplay and great humour make this a fantastic game. Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped is, in my opinion one of the best platform games of 1998.… Expand

Essentially one of the funnest platformers on the PS1 -- strike that, it's one of the funnest games on the PS1. Pros: Rich, colorful, and bizarre characters and level design; variety of gameplay; some of the slickest controls in a PS1 game ever. Cons: A little bit of "trial and error" here and there; easy boss bottles; limited level design limits replay value.

it's the pinnacle of the series. it's a reason to have a playstation. and it's a classic. it's what invented the third times a charm catchphrase. extremely AWESOME.

Easily one of the best titles on the PS one to date. Its seemingly flawless graphics and colorful visuals, variety of gameplay and level design, and humor make it one of the most outstandingly fresh games from the 90s.

The pinnacle of the Crash Bandicoot series, and my favourite PS1 game. Linear as linear can be, but utterly addictive in its varied dimensions, varied gameplay and spot-on humour. A classic game that still holds up well today.

After the excellent Crash Bandicoot and Crash Bandicoot: 2: Cortex Strikes Back, it comes as no surprise that the next instalment in Naughty Dog's flagship platformer series is such an outstanding game. And pretty damn hard one at that - achieving 100% completion is by no means an easy task. Fans of collecting goodies and discovering secrets should be particularly pleased with this game.

Crash bandicoot 3: warped is the third installment in a very successful series. Why Crash Bandicoot and in particular the early games are so fondly remembered is easy to understand: fun! You can play it when you're a kid, when you're an angsty teenager or a cynical adult and still have fun with this game. Character design is great and full of personality and each level shines in its own light. Every area you explore is very characterized, when I was a kid I was blown away by the amazing dinosaur levels. For the time, graphic was superb, and each background music was stuck in my head. Developers tried to make the game less repetitive with different gameplay styles: I don't want to spoil it for you but sometimes you use veihcles. Since the premise of the plot is time travel, different time zones use different settings, designing levels in a creative way. In the end this game is a must-play from the past, it''s very cheap on the psn now so give it a try.… Expand

One of the best 3D platformers, that I've played. The story is good (and characters even better), gameplay is superb, and music is suitable for every level. A classic, must-have game.

After playing this game for countless hours as a kid, I decided to buy this game on my PS3, best decision I've ever made. Everything about this game is fun, the controls are simple but hard to master and the graphics still look as crisp as I remember them. Thank god for Crash Bandicoot.

the crash bandicoot series is the best PS one arcade series ever. Fun and challenging when looking to beat the game and collect relics and gems. If you owned a PS one, then im sure you probably played this game.

Easily the most entertaining entry in the franchise to date, Crash Bandicoot: Warped is one of the funnest and most visually delightful platformers you'll find from the PSone days. Aside from retaining the "trial-and-error" gameplay and tricky 3-D platforms, the third installment features a variety of enthralling gameplay mechanics and culturally influenced level designs while managing to look good at the same time. For anyone interested in late-90s nostalgia, it's definitely worth its $6 on the PSN.… Expand

This quite simply is the greatest platformer of all time. It doesn't have the exploration factor that Super Mario 64 did but this game still had more variety. Nice levels, great boss battles, and a finely tuned gameplay that plays perfectly. Anyone who has ever played this will agree with me. It still plays as awesome as it did in 98
