Summary: Pretty fun game, but very easy
Comment: This game adds a douse of combat to the classic Crash Bandicoot performer style. This game has great graphics, nice character design, and good music. But all the levels are kind of the same, the game is easy to beat, and it is just very easy. Buy it if you are a die-hard Crash fan like me, but for everyone else, I would suggest a trip to the local Blockbuster.

Summary: IT WON'T BLOW YOUR MIND, BUT IT'S DECENT 7 OUT OF 10
Comment: Crash of the Titans gives the beleaguered platforming icon; Crash; some new life, but it still has a ways to go before achieving the status the franchise had on the original Playstation and fix the mistakes made by past predecessors (Much like Spyro). This game churns out decent results as a kids game, but it did little to impress me with something new.
WHAT THE GAME IS: Crash's arch nemesis Neo Cortex, and his niece Nina Cortex plan for world domination (Gee, what a surprise) and are turning the local woodland creatures into towering, hideous-looking titans. So it is up to Crash to save the world, and do some serious a**-kicking to a number of villains. So you fight enemies, "jack" titans, make your jacked titan beat the crap out of more enemies, fight bosses, and of course platforming.
GRAPHICS: Cute, cartoony look with vibrant colors and environments and cool character designs, but textures are a little sloppy.
MUSIC: It will only bore you, don't even bother trying to enjoy it. The crappy music is one of the game's low points.
SOUND: Decent voice-acting, random one-liners from enemies, beating the crap out of enemies, and Crash's annoying animal grunts (Shut the hell up already!).
GAMEPLAY: The gameplay is average, but the monster jacking feature; a feature in which an enemy that is near death can be commandeered, ridden, and forced to do your bidding by defeating enemies and solving environmental puzzles; is a welcome feature that is a lot of fun and feels innovative, but it can't cover up all of the lackluster gameplay. Luckily, there is the greatly appreciated co-op feature which makes this game a lot more fun if you play it with a friend. Controls work fine, but the camera can be particularly frustrating during the platforming sequences, especially when you play this game on co-op, and can cause you to be put in a blind spot and you can die unfairly. But, most of the features work properly, but they still need more polish because the game feels undercooked and shallow.
OVERALL: Kids will probably enjoy it, but the more hardcore gamers will not enjoy it so much because the various little bugs that could have been corrected during the game's development. But this game got lucky with me, usually I'm not kind at all to kids games which is why I went down in infamy for my review of The Bible Game which earned me a large group of haters and not-so-nice comments from angry parents. I found it to be fairly enjoyable, but it still has a lot of things to fix before the franchise can truly be restored, but the game's saving graces are co-op play, monster jacking, decent graphics, and some moderately interesting challenges. But I'd have to recommend Over the Hedge more than this game because the various interesting challenges, lots of missions, and tons of unlockable goodies to be found, and great multiplayer. This game is still worth a look however.
THE GOOD: Co-op, decent graphics, moderately interesting challenges, lovable crew of characters, and monster jacking.
THE BAD: Outside of co-op and monster jacking the gameplay is lackluster, story is boring, music is crappy, and it feels rather shallow.

Summary: Good but not great
Comment: I have gotten every crash bandicoot game so far. So when this game came out I had to get it. I thought that it was cool that they added a co-op option. Some of the bad parts were it did seem a bit repetitive and really didn't even feel like their were bosses. In previous crash games I have enjoyed the whole warp room thing. I hope in the next game they go back to the warp rooms. Over all I thought this game was good, just not great. It really didn't feel like a crash bandicoot game to me though.

Summary: A Work of Art
Comment: I was a fan of Crash from the start his first three Naughty Dog titles were great then things began to get bad after Crash was bought out it seemed as though Vivendi Universal thought that they could live on the popularity of Crash and Spyro and that alone. Then they tried gimmicks "lets liven up these old characters, it can't be our games the characters must be wrong." They came up with Twinsanity a relatively good game but it just didn't have... Well it's hard to describe but let just say it just wasn't right.

Finally though Sierra got to make it's mark on the property. And boy have they. Crash of the Titans has to be the most visually stunning and free-roaming Crash title to date. It takes a Crash Bandicoot gaming experience to a level which it hasn't reached in years.
The sound effects are great as is the voicing for characters and certain enemies is great. As you approach enemies you can here them having a conversation. The music also has that signature sound you expect from
Crash games.
Now you may be thinking if the game is like that how must the load times be, nearly non-existent, it's wonderful no sooner do you choose your level and it's loaded an ready to play. And events faze in seamlessly.

Overall this is a work of art and an excellent game you'd have to be crazy not to like it.
