Crash Of The Titans

You know him, that mutated bandicoot who loves wumpa fruit. I love him, have all his games, (ps1, ps2 and xbox…) Anyway,. As you may know, a new game is coming out, Crash Of The Titans. I was like, ‘Ohh goody, more Crash!’ but no, what I saw made me go what the friggin’ fug f**k happened to Crash?? His new design…ugg, do I even need to say anything?? I found out about it on his other web sites, and was like ‘God, someone’s gone bonkers…’ I was shocked and horrified…especially the huge ass head and hands…speaking of which, NO GOLVES!! Have you ever seen Crash with no gloves??? Will if you’re a fan, yes… But what the hell where the designers thinking??? ‘Oh no, he must be getting boring, need new, more ‘hip’ stuff for the kids nowdays…sdo lets give him tattoos!’

Ugg…Uka Uka, Aku Aku and Tiny are the worst off…
See?

Aku Aku looks like a freaking babbon! D: What happened to the good old simple rectangle bit of wood with some feathers stuck on? Well, that's what happens when old games try to be new. Oh, and Uka Uka looks like something that you'd find out of Warcraft. I mean, him and Aku Aku are supposed to be twin brothers... but in the other games, you could actually sorta see the relation.
Though for the rest of it, the game actually looks pretty cool. Graphics (apart from character design) are win.

In the Transformers Fandom we have a special term for this:


"OMG ITS RUINED FOREVER !!!!!!1111!!!111MY CHILDHOOD IS RAPED!!!!111"

If you don't like a character redesign, play the old games.

I am a huge Crash Bandicoot fan, and I adore the new designs. I love them all immensely, especially Aku Aku and Uka Uka. The only one I’m not sure about is Cortex, as I always loved that he was pretty much as small as the animals he messed with. The only real complaint about the new characters I will understand is that of Tiny, whose appearance, personality, and even species have been radically altered.

I’m looking forward to Crash of the Titans!

I wonder what Havoc thinks of tiny?

Anyway, this could be the one reason I get a new crash game.
Also, the music at the Start is from something, somebody tell me what for a free internets.

I don't like the new designs (apart from Crash, who is fine). And the game doesn't seem serious enough, the Crash games were never overly serious, but this is just disappointing.

I mean, I would buy the game, it looks interesting and stuff, but only if it wasn't a Crash game. If it had a different character, sure, but I dont like it 'cause of what they did to the people in Crash. Huh.

I am officialy excited for this game. IMO, this is by far the best Crash game since the PSone and the best platformer on the 360. I just played the demo, and it was really fun. The graphics are not breathe taking, but I still love the style of it. In the demo it had some nice platforming puzzles, that actually required thinking! Taking over the enemies is alot of fun, hopefully they have a huge variety for us. My only beefs are the camera, you cannot control it to my knowledge and the fact that Crash's health is too small. Other than that, looks to be a great platformer.

Is it because of the not shoppage I did?

I can’t afford it, or anything to play it on. This is fucking sad. I am fucking unhappy. Nate, I’ve decided what you can get me for my birthday.

This is the first I've seen of this. First of all I'd like to say: never judge a game before you've played it. To do otherwise is simply moronic.

That said, I actually really like this. The classic Crash Bandicoot was getting effing stale, I couldn't play them anymore. It was great back on the PSX, but it was completely unable to evolve. New gimicks and gametypes have been added, but nothing was really helping this 32-bit game in a whatever-the-hell-it-is-now world. This revamp is a breath of fresh air and has given many of the characters something they previously lacked: character. Tiny's personality is above and beyond his old one. Not that he even had a old one, mind you. There is a definite Venture Brothers air about this, and Cortex is more hilarious than ever.

And Coco's pretty hot, for a marsupial.
