90Better on the Box. Sharper, fuller, and more variable detail, excellent sound, and precise controls are all contained herein, along with the patented Crash game play that makes this such a fan favorite.
-
84What it lacks in general innovation is quickly outshines by familiar, addictive, and constantly fun gameplay.
-
They've caressed the music to great effect, made the bosses a bit more challenging, [and] adhered to a massive replayability standard that would drive any developer to drink. [Apr 2002, p.49]
-
75You'll feel like 'Mr. No Depth Perception' from Saturday Night Live, as you struggle to tell how close to certain objects Crash is.
-
Every little morsel of platforming goodness in The Wrath of Cortex has already been done to death on the Playstation. [May 2002, p.87]
-
71If you are looking for an innovative and original experience that does justice to the series you’ll have to look elsewhere.
-
This is a game for those who want what Crash has always had to offer – good graphics, jump-and-spin gameplay, and tons of collectible items. Nothing more, nothing less. [Apr 2002, p.74]
-
It feels like the originality that the franchise once had has run a little stale.
-
There's not enough meat on this Bandicoot to feed you for more than a week for the casual gamer or a weekend for the hardcore fan.
-
70A fun game that’s worth getting for the kids in the house. I would’ve liked to see some multiplayer options thrown in.
-
67A fun game for the most part...However, it fails in some areas, like proper game balance and correct use of surround sound.
-
64A slightly updated version of the orange marsupial's 1998 debut on the PlayStation.
-
If there's a mediocre idea to be had, chances are Crash has burgled it. [Summer 2002, p.91]
-
60Love it or hate it, Wrath of Cortex Xbox is more of more of the same.
-
We never thought we’d reach a day where we would say this but, after playing Crash Bandicoot, we’re actually looking forward to "Rayman 3."
-
Save for a few additions to WOC, like some cool hamster-ball levels, it's almost identical to its predecessors. [May 2002, p.113]
