Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex schlägt zurück

All right! It id official! After ten years of playing this game I finally started a new game and in four days I beat the game for the first time ever. Only three levels and one boss level challenged me really, really much. The game-play was excellent. Only problem is I am used to using the L3 pad as my directional pad it got just a little out of hand with Crash just walking occasionally and nearly running into an enemy or falling down a pit.

Crash 3 was a great sequel but a little too hard for me to beat. Although I am currently trying to beat it. But this game remains my favorite compared to others because I beat it for the first time ever and it is the only Crash game I ever beat.

I will never forget this game, ever! 10/10

CRASH BANDICOOT 2: Cortex Strikes Back! (1997) is one of the greatest Crash sequels, brought to players by Naughty Dog (Crash, Jak and Daxter, Last of Us). Crash 2 is the game that I played for hundreds of hours as a child, and it still holds a very strong and special place in my heart. The nostalgic force is strong with this one.

"Crash Bandicoot is on an adventure to collect crystals and help Dr. Neo Cortex save the world, or so it seems."

The game is a puzzle platformer, and has excellent level designs, characters, boss fights, and story. The level become progressively more challenging as the game goes on. The music and sounds effects are iconic and so well done. This game has such a great, unforgettable OST.

Crash Bandicoot 2 is by far one of the greatest games of all time, in my humble opinion, and my personal favorite in the series.

Let me start off by saying, that I am a HUGE fan of Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot games. 1, 2, warped, CTR, and CB are all pretty sweet games. But overall, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back is my favorite of them all. Let me tell you why.

1) The Levels: Overall, this game has twenty-five levels of non stop fun. Though elements from the first game were used, there were new level types such as taking a jetpack and travelling through a space ship, and old elements were reinvented as well. For example, you run from a boulder in the first one. In the second one, you run from a huge polar bear. Pretty sweet and fun levels.

2) The challenges: Now believe me when I say that this game is freakin hard at times. At least, if you wish to get a 100% finish. Multiple traps, tricks, secret passage ways, if you want it all, be prepared to look around quite a bit. Well, not a bit. A lot!!! For example, you know those nitro boxes that you can't touch? Well in a level, there is a pile of them, set up to look like stairs. You can actually hop on those ones and not blow up. Get to the top of the pile and you end up in a secret warp room. I'm sure you wouldn't think about diving in a hole and uncovering a bonus room. Yup, very challenging.

3) The Characters: We are introduced to some of the Major characters in the series. Coco Bandicoot, Crash's lil sis, N. Gin, and Tiny Tiger. We also get to see Ripper Roo again. One of the particular bosses didn't last. The komodo bros. I think they were in CTR, but that's it.

Overall (Yeah, I use that word a lot) This game is freaking awesome! 10 out of 10, baby! Favorite and best Crash Bandicoot game ever!!!

I got this game along with Sony PlayStation 1 for Christmas in 1997 when I was seven years old. I always loved that PS1 game. It is one of my favourite PS1 games of all time and it is my favourite Crash Bandicoot game in the series of all time as well. It has nice graphics, great gameplay and catchy music. I kinda missed playing it. I'd really love to play it again someday.

I have it on PS4 as its remastered version in Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. Its remastered version looks incredible. I like its both original and remastered versions. I cannot prefer so who cares which one is better anyway?!

It's probably one of the best PS1 games of all time.

I played this game during my trip to Texas. My cousin brought his Play Station to our hotel (We're almost 11! Except he's 1 month older). We played this a lot!!!! I stunk at this game for a while. Then I got the hang of it.

I've play the Crash Bandicoot games. They're fun.But CB2 is more fun!!!!

If you like video games with fun boss levels, wierd looking characters and 3D stuff, you'll LOVE this!
