LOVE THE CRASH SERIES!!
Just before the Nsane Trilogy came out- I dusted off the ole' ps2 and popped this game in. Once again I was immersed into the world of Crash and it was just as fun as I can remember!

Crash is one of those classic series that you can complete- walk away from for years and STILL have a desire to play again!!

I haven't tried the new trilogy yet- too many reviews stating hitboxes are off... so- I'll just chill with my old school originals until they get all that jazz figured out!!
