Editorial Review
PlayStation owners no longer need to borrow their friend's Nintendo 64 in order to have a rollicking good old time racing virtual turbo-charged go-karts through outlandish environments. Crash Team Racing does an excellent job of re-creating that same thrill on the PlayStation.

Crash Team Racing has all the marks of the kart-racing genre, including big-headed characters driving diminutive go-karts, power-ups to increase speed and slow down opponents, and thematic tracks with multiple paths for exploration. What CTR adds to the mix is fairness: tighter-turning cars are rewarded for precision driving, skillful jumping, and strategic placement of booby traps. Sure, the playing field is level, but the better the driver, the better chance he or she has of winning consistently without any annoying "catch-up code."

The one-player game is wonderfully presented as an exploratory adventure, while the multiplayer mode is a split-screen must-play for anyone with a PlayStation (and, of course, friends). Twenty-five tracks, 12 characters, and responsive control make CTR the gotta-have racing game. --Jeff Young

Pros:

  • Excellent kart control, including power slides, hops, and wheelies
  • Wide tracks encourage passing
  • High replayability, especially in multiplayer mode
Cons:
  • Characters aren't as cute as those in Mario Kart

4 out of 5 stars CTR   May 29, 2008
My boyfriend has crash nitro cart, and we liked to play it. He used to have this game until he lost it, so i figured it would be a good gift for his birthday. He was very excited! I had never played it before, but when i did i thought it was way better than nitro cart. I really enjoy the courses in the first one better.


4 out of 5 stars I still love this game   October 20, 2007
I've played this game before when I was younger, and even though it's a "kiddie game," I still love it! The controls are easy to get used to, there are many tracks and options to explore, more than one challenge of just defeating all the characters in a single or cup race, and overall, it's just plain fun! It's great for all ages.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent Racing Game   July 22, 2007

This game is a must have for Mario Kart fans as well as Crash-Bandicoot fans; Nonetheless, the game is simple to understand and takes a day or two to master. People should have a lot of fun with this game (unless they're mentally slow or you dislike fantasy racers). The game features quite a lot of options including "Battle Mode" and "Arcade" which should fare well for 1 player ventures. However, the best experience can be drawn out of this game from a PlayStation multitap. It is unstoppable fun after you gather friends around and play with the multitap!


5 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE!   May 13, 2007

This is a great game... It has kept my six year old and husband busy for hours and they have not lost interest yet....


5 out of 5 stars I hope they never stop making copies of this game!   April 10, 2007
This is the best game ever! It's been out there for awhile, but it's still my favorite. Even my son, (who's been playing all of the newest games for years), was thrilled when I brought another one of these home. (Our first copy was purchased around 6 years ago and had long ago ceased to work). I'd recommend this game for anyone of any age!
