  • Summary: In Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant, a rejuvenated Neo Cortex is taking over the world one brain at a time! Cortex and N.

Armed with his quick-wits and lightening agility,In Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant, a rejuvenated Neo Cortex is taking over the world one brain at a time! Cortex and N. Brio devise a new kind of evil - a text-messaging, do-anything device which controls both mutant and bandicoot minds. Armed with his quick-wits and lightening agility, Crash must free his friends, the titans and save the day. Not only does Crash gain the ability to control his enemies when he jacks them – now he can store his favorite monsters in his pocket, upgrade them and utilize their powers when they are most advantageous. Wumpa Island becomes a "free-romping" environment, allowing players to travel and explore through intersecting worlds, with different gameplay options available depending on what creature you've brought along for the ride. Your co-op partner is Crash's sister, Coco, playable for the first time in the cooperative mode. Not only does Coco make the game that much more inviting for girls to pick up and play, she also brings with her a new tactile "treasure hunt" ability. [Sierra Entertainment]… Expand

    Though it was not the most challenging game, Mind Over Mutant remained a joy to play. Stepping into the 3D world is definitely a good move for the franchise, and the gameplay translates well.

    Mind Over Mutant doesn't mutate the standard platform game experience to stand out from the crowd.

    If you are a parent looking for a title for your child, then I would definitely say to give this one a try. It has a vibrant, cartoon like appearance that many kids should appreciate.

    It’s a shame that Mind Over Mutant turned out to be just another so-so Crash Bandicoot game, because it actually did seem promising for a little while.

    Before the backtracking kicks in, the game is a lot of fun and had me thinking that I'd be getting a good gaming experience. As you continue to play, the technical problems start to rear their ugly heads, and many of the new platforming sections just aren't a lot of fun to play.

    It does provide a few satisfying hours of gameplay before the backtracking sets in, and it has plenty of content to keep you busy for a while if you're a completist. But if you're looking for something new other than jokes, you won't find it here.

    Crash: Mind Over Mutant attempts to use platformer cliches that have been done far better by several titles since platformers made the transition to 3D.

Don’t get me wrong the music is amazing the entire soundtrack is awesome so are the cutscenes this time around they are humors and unique. The gameplay is still fun and satisfying but sadly it gets repetitive and it also gets really noticeable. They didn’t even improve the bosses, but at least the new titans are sick and a blast to control even the rewards are stunning. Crash mind over mutant isn’t the best sequel but it’s still a great game to play, still has a lot room to improve though. (Good 3/5) Give It A Try!… Expand

Uma tentativa falha de fazer um game em mundo aberto, que o jogador tem a livre escolha de ir onde voce quiser, que por sinal é muito confuso, o jogador nao sabe onde prosseguir com a suposta ajuda de um mapa bem preguiçoso, que nem te ajuda na localizaçao do mundo. Resultado de um game em mundo aberto, ha partes que voce deve retornar a um determinado local, como o que voce começou o jogo, e é uma das partes mais chatas pois quando voce faz sua missao, teria que retornar ao ponto inicial, que é outra tentativa péssima, pois voce nao pode movimentar a camera, logo voce tem que adivinhar o que esta por vir sem poder ver XD . Sem contar com a péssima historia, que a ideia era muito boa e tinha potencial para dar certo, mas acabou sendo mais uma gameplay repetitiva com uma historia sem noçao... Tentaram misturar o Crash of The Titans (2007) com o classico e falharam.… Expand
