The developers were so rushed to finish the game it's missing a lot of polish: sound effects, animation smoothing, clipping etc. They even made a joke about it at 22:25 saying they didn't have time to make the second dimmension. Holy shit, THIS GAME IS HILARIOUS
Kadeem The Dream I love how aware this game is. They put alot of time, effort, and love into this game, but time constraints forced them to cut out half of the game, leave things unfinished and unexplained, yet they poke fun at it, and even poke fun at a previous game they did. I love this game and the team behind it.
This is why, while they're funny too....ish, it's better than even the writing of COTT and MON. Those two seem to have had a joke philosophy of: "I'M MR MEESEEKS LOOK AT ME! FUNNY GAG! POP CULTURAL ATTENDANCE! I'M SHOUTING! I'M THE UNNECESSARY CENTER OF ATTENTION!
With the sucess of the N.Sane Trillogy, i'm hoping they might reach out to the original team behind this game, and try to do a remaster of this game with everything in it. Supposedly someone from the team behind this game reached out to activision, congratulated them for the N.Sane Trillogy, and hinted at possibly bringing back Twinsanity. I'd be over the moon! But i'm not holding my breath.
Actually he has 3, he says "Dr. Cortex, you are magnificent!" during the Mechabandicoot fight (not in this video since it's during gameplay) and "Yes, we are rich!" in the Evil Twins' treasure room. Still, better than Brio who has zero lines for some reason...
Insert cool name. Up until like last night I thought that the joke was he loves her so much, he looks at her like a daughter rather than a niece and he just doesn’t want to admit it. Please tell me I’m not the only one looking at this in a wholesome light!
Ed SkyNight to summarize the joke is that cortex slept with his brother’s wife and had Nina as a result and he’s just trying to make sure nobody finds out.
Foxy Gamer Ehh....I'll let traveler's tales off the hook. They weren't with crash from the very beginning, so maybe they didn't know about that part of the lore. Or.....maybe they did, and it was just a joke that wasn't meant to be taken soo seriously.
Even surpasses him, his jump is higher than Crash's double jump, and his slide attack is stronger as it KILLS the shielded enemy while Crash's only knocks off the shield. Crash Slam is probably stronger tho
9:27 made me laugh so hard as a child... it was just so doopy seeing the zoom in of their face and the fish. also "should of been 2 dimensions but we ran out of time" is that why this game was unfinished. was their a whole chunk of this game missing!!!
the current system couldn't handle it and they ran out of time...if they made a remastered they said it would take more than a year to put in the content that was removed
Foxy Gamer In my opinion, they should do that. I'd Defintely buy it and see how good it is. Not only would there be more content, but it would most likely look better and have a lot of bug fixing.
Travellers Tales were given an almost impossible deadline. Even though this gives almost half of the game lost to time, its also why they just gave up and had fun with it. You can tell they had a blast with the writing

Looking back at on Twinsanity, despite how funny it can be, you can really tell how rushed the game feels. Despite the decent voice acting, a lot of the audio feels empty and inconsistent, most of it either dialogue or background music that hasn't been sound-mixed properly. I bet a lot of the jokes would've been even funnier if they actually added sound effects. Some characters don't even make noise, like when watching N.Brio transform (16:26), you don't hear him jerking in pain or making goofy noises. It's disjointing and awkward.
TheTJWorks Have to add, seeing Brio in this game is jarring. He comes out of nowhere, and all of a sudden his motivation is treasure, and he's working with N.Tropy, a character he never knew before. Also, why is N.Tropy interested in treasure?! The N.Tropy part is the most jarring and confusing part of the game. You can tell it was rushed and that they had no time to flesh out certain things, or explain things properly. It sucks. This is one of the best games in the crash bandicoot series because of how humerous it is, how much personality it gave Cortex, and how quirky the game is. I adore it. It sucks that they essentially cut half of the game out.
SonicGman2001 funnily enough i have it and it was a decent game. shame it didn't sell as well. but with all the missing content from twinsanity i wonder how many more self aware jokes would have been made
This is probably the only video game that made me laugh regularly, especially as a kid. The writing was actually great. Like, it could've passed for a really good Cartoon Network show. Sucks that CTTR and beyond had a 5 year old writing the dialogue. I mean Christ, I actually had to mute that game because the characters were so annoying. On an unrelated note, I think this kind of open world-ish game actually felt like a natural progression from the original Naughty Dog games. I hope they go this direction again after the remasters.
I completely agree with you. Twinsanity's writing and dialogue were so well written. It is one of the main reasons it is my favorite Crash Bandicoot game. It doesn't have the "5 year old"-like dialogue, and it kind of showed me a new world to me as kid, just because of its adult-like, ironic, self-aware dialogue
Paulo Cezar Glad to see others agree aswell, although I doubt it will ever happen I would love to see this game remastered heck maybe even fully developed with some of the cut stuff added in.
David Lynch I hear ya. This game was fun, the characters were well done, and Cortex was still smart, somewhat competent, and somewhat threatening. After this game, he pretty much became a brain dead, joke-cracking Dr. Neo Cortex cosplayer with Dr. Wily's hair.
I have different thoughts on this game. The humour was pretty lame and unoriginal. We've seen the "bee-thing gag" and other things in almost every Looney Tunes cartoon. The've went reeeeeally low on the standards. Jokes made me do facepalms. The voice actors aren't bad though - they just had terrible script. And about the "open world" thing - it COULD have been good, if it wasn't for the awful method of going through same levels to get to the needed one. If you've missed one gem then you had to needlessly repeat other levels.
@LukeInside Yeah, I agree with you. To me, the humor really wasn't all that interesting, funny or original and was more on the side of cringe-inducing and cliche. But still, it was nowhere near as bad as the crap from CTTR, COTT and CMOM. And while we're sharing unpopular opinions on this game, Twinsanity to me seemed to be a budget Jak And Daxter game. And I actually played Twinsanity _before_ J&D. Once I got my hands on Jak And Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, I actually tossed Twinsanity in the trash.
The character design, music, and humor of this game is perfect and what really made this Crash game the best out of all of them . Even if rushed it will always be my favorite
11:00 I like this one. Shows that Uka Uka isn't a generic ancient evil - he is intelligent, he likes challenges, he isn't just hellbent to destroy something. There's always something behind his reasons and he can also be good, as he shows it to Aku Aku. Even Aku is happy about it, considering the "The Aku and Uka brothers, together again".
I wouldn't consider uka uka to be capable of good, in twinsanity it seems more like a "I'll help defeat a greater evil for my own benefit" as opposed to helping for the good of others
Karllum Augustine Crash and Spyro have this strange connection with each other. Both were fantastic plat formers that were considered to be mascots for the PlayStation, both were left behind by their creators, both series changed drastically later on, and were considered dead.
+ERROR: #290384AC Actually, that's because Universal owned the distribution rights to both series back in the day, all the way at the beginning with the PS1 games. On top of that, Naughty Dog and Insomniac, who developed Crash and Spyro respectively, worked in the same building and had a good friendship between each other. And while they left the series during the PS2 days, Universal still owned both so they were able to put Crash and Spyro in each other's games.
They really should make a game like this again. It's easily one of the best in the series. Open world gameplay Great variety in levels and environments Hilarious cutscenes L.L. is great as Cortex A cappella music suits Crash really well Boss fight at the end is fucking awesome
@@PikminandOatchi My guess: Cortex has a brother who got married, but Cortex cheated with the wife. Nina was born sometime after, and there's a good chance she's actually Cortex's daughter instead of niece.
Highlights: Cortex is just gold in this game. Like, no, really, he's the best. Also, disguising as Coco was pretty funny, though how he got her clothes is probably one of the more sketchy things in this game... BEEEES! haha. That penguin and the "wrath of cortex" thing made me crack up. Glad to see the two mask brothers actually make a small effort together in this story. ... Only for them to get foiled later! Aaaand cortex snowboarding! Wait, what?! They slide through a strip club?! That's even more raunchy than cortex presumably stripping coco! Aaand unfortunately N. Gine or whatever his name is does not get much of a chance to speak. Gonna be skipping through a few other cinematic points here, Nina cortex is cool I guess. WHOA MAMA WHY DOES THE SCHOOL OF EVIL PRINCIPLE HAVE HOOTERS THAT BIG?! Skipping stuff just cuz! Also, Coco came at a really bad time! I love the narrative and emotional dissonance between Cortex describing his memories and Cortex's actual feelings during the night of his experiment! HOLY CRAP SPYRO! GUYS DID YOU SEE THAT?! The twins were quite unremarkable in my opinion. If they got ate like hot stinkin' turkey by an evil version of crash, then I don't care I guess. Wait... What the f***? Cortex looked like he was gonna do something cool, but we all know he can't have his way. But to fail that bad as to end up in crash's brain while he imagines himself doing that famous dance? That's really frikken weird, but at least it's not anything as perverse as the perhaps not child appropriate moments found much earlier! Also, Cortex's fear of heights canonically makes sense, especially after the first game's ending.
@@aimfuldrifter considering they were short on money and time it's one of the better crash games. Can't hold a candle to the originals but the soundtrack was brilliant, some of the writing was good save for the awful villains. Cortex actually got a lot of time and the difficulty was decent. Plus they at least tried to add an actual story.
19:13 Honestly, this is kinda cute, I can imagine Cortex playing with a much younger Nina like that. Also, if Cortex is actually her dad, then who the hell let him smash??
"HEY HEY HEY! Yeah you! I've been doing this for 10 stinkin years, back and forward, back and forward, and I'M SICK OF IT! Well I'm not gonna do it no more!"
0:45 "It is I, Aku-Aku! My duty is to protect you. You may summon me by breaking open these crates. Call me thrice and I will grant you special powers." - Aku Aku /Hit Nitro crates while having Invinsibility = Exploded and died Me: God damnnn Aku Aku YOU LIE !!!! :
Such a shame this game didn't get more time to be made. It's still great for what it is though, and it will always be my favorite. The team that worked on this were very passionate about the series, and it really shows.
Honestly this is the best voice work Lex Lang has done for Cortex, really do hope future games try to have a similar sense of humor because its where he's at his best.
Jasper Jones thats true, you'd have to get a ps1, ps2, or old gen ps3 to play the first 3 or the N sane trilogy which is the remastered version on ps4. That is really tempting me to get one!
This game will always have a special place in my heart. It has so many flaws and it’s so short but it still manages to deliver such a fun experience. The levels that weren’t cut are all so good. The openness of the level design was so exciting to me after the more linear Crash games that came before it, the humour is spot on and the music is so memorable. I don’t want a remaster unless they were to hugely expand on the game and include all cut content and more.
This was the worst Crash game I've ever played. Humour is pathetic and gags are so cliched that early Looney Tunes cartoons had better scripts. The design, controls and voice acting are hundred light years behind first three games.
LukeInside Finally someone say something true... thanks dude. I think this game is one of the worst shit I ever play. The soudtrack is just creepy as Fuck. Aweful memories ...
You can download a rom for free and run it on a ps2 emulator. Just make sure to download the PAL version because I had some issues with the NTSC one (the game can freeze after defeating Dingodile).
I loved how Cortex was so chrarismatic during the entire game. It really made me disappointed as a kid that previous or later Crash games he was just a mad scientist with no character development at all
watching this made me cry it was the last actual high quality funny game i played & even with the current gen this game is still a masterpice of fun time
This game was a rushed mess, yet it still manages to be a fun, hilarious, memorable experience. That is just amazing. I'd love a remake just so they can include all the cut content and make everything 10x better.
6:43- 6:50 Kortex: Im a evil scientist what did you expect this isn't a game. Excuse me this is a game and you know it also you have to fix the forth wall now... again
hen_tie lol stfu almost everyone had a crush on coco at that time even till now lol probably just wanna express it to coco in general I suppose, nothing weird about it
Daniel Gonzalez Yup! A fantastic game, the last really good crash bandicoot game. It stands up with the classics, in my opinion. This game tries something new, and has a lot of personality! I love it! It's a shame that it's soo glitchy and broken. The glitches are pretty fun though.....lol But really, this game was really rushed, and that really screwed it over, quality wise.
Foxy Gamer they'll probably make it too real and ugly if they do. I don't cortex to have a rounder head and I don't want to be able to distinguish individual hairs on crash
Hands down my favorite game of all time. Had so many memories playing this game as a child and playing it today is even better. I love this game to death.
"MY AIRSHIP! Without it, we're stranded! 'Tie it to something secure', I said! Hurry Nina, or you'll MISS THE BUS!" I've have never played Twinsanity, but I friggin' love that line!
yeah the titan ones weren't too bad but most of us gave them shit for not being platformers and whatnot, still though, you could argue it's the last real platformer game
Lol, Cortex’ voice is seriously one of the best parts of the game.
He has some REALLY good lines. He invented the whole "swap every word that means good with everything that means bad" trope before Doofinshmirts did
sazz@@coolestardude zdfb⁶³, .

His voice actor is so good, consistently the funniest part of every game

You can tell the developers had a lot of fun making this game. Some of the jokes still hold up pretty good too.
Makoto Yuki "Wrath of Cortex didn't do as good as we had hoped..."
If they remastered it: "Oh come on, we didn't go THAT over budget with the N-sane trilogy!"
If they remastered it, they'd probably mention something about finally having the time to finish up that second dimension.
Makoto Yuki they had a low budget, a short amount of time to make this, and had to cut out half the game to make the deadline.
Makoto Yuki, what jokes would they say for the Radical Entertainment titles [Tag Team Racing, Titans and Mind over Mutant]?
The developers were so rushed to finish the game it's missing a lot of polish: sound effects, animation smoothing, clipping etc. They even made a joke about it at 22:25 saying they didn't have time to make the second dimmension. Holy shit, THIS GAME IS HILARIOUS
Kadeem The Dream I love how aware this game is.

TheTJWorks kinda reminds of that spongebob movie game on gamecube
TheTJWorks Have to add, seeing Brio in this game is jarring. He comes out of nowhere, and all of a sudden his motivation is treasure, and he's working with N.Tropy, a character he never knew before. Also, why is N.Tropy interested in treasure?! The N.Tropy part is the most jarring and confusing part of the game.

It doesn't have the "5 year old"-like dialogue, and it kind of showed me a new world to me as kid, just because of its adult-like, ironic, self-aware dialogue
Paulo Cezar Glad to see others agree aswell, although I doubt it will ever happen I would love to see this game remastered heck maybe even fully developed with some of the cut stuff added in.
David Lynch I hear ya. This game was fun, the characters were well done, and Cortex was still smart, somewhat competent, and somewhat threatening. After this game, he pretty much became a brain dead, joke-cracking Dr. Neo Cortex cosplayer with Dr. Wily's hair.
I have different thoughts on this game. The humour was pretty lame and unoriginal. We've seen the "bee-thing gag" and other things in almost every Looney Tunes cartoon. The've went reeeeeally low on the standards. Jokes made me do facepalms. The voice actors aren't bad though - they just had terrible script. And about the "open world" thing - it COULD have been good, if it wasn't for the awful method of going through same levels to get to the needed one. If you've missed one gem then you had to needlessly repeat other levels.
@LukeInside
Yeah, I agree with you. To me, the humor really wasn't all that interesting, funny or original and was more on the side of cringe-inducing and cliche. But still, it was nowhere near as bad as the crap from CTTR, COTT and CMOM. And while we're sharing unpopular opinions on this game, Twinsanity to me seemed to be a budget Jak And Daxter game. And I actually played Twinsanity _before_ J&D. Once I got my hands on Jak And Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, I actually tossed Twinsanity in the trash.
The character design, music, and humor of this game is perfect and what really made this Crash game the best out of all of them . Even if rushed it will always be my favorite
Hated how Nina didn't get any lines, she was probably one of my favorite parts of the whole game.
Jax Man Nah, they would have probably given her a stupid voice like in Crash Of The Titans which would have made us all hate her.
Jax Man She was supposted to sound and talk like a little kid spelling out words like "Mame" or "destroy"
Jason Dee this was her voice before it got scraped th-cam.com/video/UOfmWsaKqmo/w-d-xo.html
I figured she was just your classic silent protagonist since she is playable
Jalen M. It’s good it got scrapped but i wish they gave her the voice that she has in “crash team tag racing”
11:00 I like this one. Shows that Uka Uka isn't a generic ancient evil - he is intelligent, he likes challenges, he isn't just hellbent to destroy something. There's always something behind his reasons and he can also be good, as he shows it to Aku Aku. Even Aku is happy about it, considering the "The Aku and Uka brothers, together again".
I think the relationship between Aku Aku and Uka Uka mirrors that of Optimus Prime and Megatron.
I wouldn't consider uka uka to be capable of good, in twinsanity it seems more like a "I'll help defeat a greater evil for my own benefit" as opposed to helping for the good of others
Spyro in a Crash game? Wonder how many times they use that in the future
Karllum Augustine LOL! haha
Karllum Augustine Crash and Spyro have this strange connection with each other. Both were fantastic plat formers that were considered to be mascots for the PlayStation, both were left behind by their creators, both series changed drastically later on, and were considered dead.
ERROR: #290384AC shame too. They both seem to be brilliant games
+ERROR: #290384AC Actually, that's because Universal owned the distribution rights to both series back in the day, all the way at the beginning with the PS1 games. On top of that, Naughty Dog and Insomniac, who developed Crash and Spyro respectively, worked in the same building and had a good friendship between each other. And while they left the series during the PS2 days, Universal still owned both so they were able to put Crash and Spyro in each other's games.
Sparkster2600 Ohh, wow. Makes alot of sense now, thank you! :)
6:45
That is honestly something I’d do if I was in Cortex’s position.
Also, that forth wall break was so smooth too.
Best Crash game! It's so very quotable xD
jude m id say it’s maybe the 3rd or 4th best crash because the originals are still on top
Twistersanity dammit you're salty
I just love how despite all the crazyness going on around him,Crash remains completely oblivious.
They really should make a game like this again. It's easily one of the best in the series.
Open world gameplay
Great variety in levels and environments
Hilarious cutscenes
L.L. is great as Cortex
A cappella music suits Crash really well
Boss fight at the end is fucking awesome
The idea that all that goes on in Crash’s brain constantly is hundreds of him doing his victory dance gives me life
IS NO ONE GOING TO TALK ABOUT HOW CORTEX ALMOST CALLED NINA DAUGHTER?!? BUT HE CORRECTED HIMSELF TO SAY NIECE.
Ruby Sapphire I know, right?
Supposedly they were planning on making her his daughter, but settled on making her his neice. They referenced it, I guess.
@@MeatEatingVegan777 Or he screwed his sister and doesn't want to admit it.
@@PikminandOatchi
My guess: Cortex has a brother who got married, but Cortex cheated with the wife. Nina was born sometime after, and there's a good chance she's actually Cortex's daughter instead of niece.
When?
This was a pretty good game considering that they had limited time, budget, and resources.
They only had 30 employeed working on it. You're right.
*SQUAAAAAACK!*
"Fish?"
MisterE Gamer "And Crash The Wrath of Cortex wasn't as good as we had hope and"
MisterE Gamer lol he pulled that gun out in the state off
MisterE Gamer LOL!
Highlights:
Cortex is just gold in this game. Like, no, really, he's the best. Also, disguising as Coco was pretty funny, though how he got her clothes is probably one of the more sketchy things in this game...
BEEEES! haha.
That penguin and the "wrath of cortex" thing made me crack up.
Glad to see the two mask brothers actually make a small effort together in this story.
... Only for them to get foiled later!
Aaaand cortex snowboarding!
Wait, what?! They slide through a strip club?! That's even more raunchy than cortex presumably stripping coco!
Aaand unfortunately N. Gine or whatever his name is does not get much of a chance to speak.
Gonna be skipping through a few other cinematic points here, Nina cortex is cool I guess.
WHOA MAMA WHY DOES THE SCHOOL OF EVIL PRINCIPLE HAVE HOOTERS THAT BIG?!
Skipping stuff just cuz! Also, Coco came at a really bad time!
I love the narrative and emotional dissonance between Cortex describing his memories and Cortex's actual feelings during the night of his experiment!
HOLY CRAP SPYRO! GUYS DID YOU SEE THAT?!
The twins were quite unremarkable in my opinion. If they got ate like hot stinkin' turkey by an evil version of crash, then I don't care I guess.
Wait... What the f***? Cortex looked like he was gonna do something cool, but we all know he can't have his way. But to fail that bad as to end up in crash's brain while he imagines himself doing that famous dance? That's really frikken weird, but at least it's not anything as perverse as the perhaps not child appropriate moments found much earlier!
Also, Cortex's fear of heights canonically makes sense, especially after the first game's ending.
Do Crash and Cortex literally go to a strip club? *BEST CRASH GAME EVER!*
supermariobros272 "MOTHER?"
Terrible standard.
@@aimfuldrifter considering they were short on money and time it's one of the better crash games. Can't hold a candle to the originals but the soundtrack was brilliant, some of the writing was good save for the awful villains. Cortex actually got a lot of time and the difficulty was decent. Plus they at least tried to add an actual story.
19:13 Honestly, this is kinda cute, I can imagine Cortex playing with a much younger Nina like that.
Also, if Cortex is actually her dad, then who the hell let him smash??
"HEY HEY HEY! Yeah you! I've been doing this for 10 stinkin years, back and forward, back and forward, and I'M SICK OF IT! Well I'm not gonna do it no more!"
Crash: *attacks you anyway* :P
HyperTwister Yeah....I always knew that was wrong. I was wondering how they messed up that badly.
the game is from 2004...
0:45 "It is I, Aku-Aku! My duty is to protect you. You may summon me by breaking open these crates. Call me thrice and I will grant you special powers." - Aku Aku
/Hit Nitro crates while having Invinsibility = Exploded and died
Me: God damnnn Aku Aku YOU LIE !!!! :
Such a shame this game didn't get more time to be made. It's still great for what it is though, and it will always be my favorite. The team that worked on this were very passionate about the series, and it really shows.
Honestly this is the best voice work Lex Lang has done for Cortex, really do hope future games try to have a similar sense of humor because its where he's at his best.
My 1st crash game. I miss it
Jasper Jones dude you must play thw first 3 if you liked this one. you'll LOVE THEM!
Dale Gribble can't. I have a Xbox one now
Jasper Jones thats true, you'd have to get a ps1, ps2, or old gen ps3 to play the first 3 or the N sane trilogy which is the remastered version on ps4. That is really tempting me to get one!
Dale Gribble lol ok
+Jasper Jones There's always emulators.
This game will always have a special place in my heart. It has so many flaws and it’s so short but it still manages to deliver such a fun experience. The levels that weren’t cut are all so good. The openness of the level design was so exciting to me after the more linear Crash games that came before it, the humour is spot on and the music is so memorable. I don’t want a remaster unless they were to hugely expand on the game and include all cut content and more.
Uka Uka:NOOOOO! that's my job
This was my favorite crash game ever
This was the worst Crash game I've ever played. Humour is pathetic and gags are so cliched that early Looney Tunes cartoons had better scripts. The design, controls and voice acting are hundred light years behind first three games.
mine too also Crash of the Titans & Mind over Mutant & Tag Team Racing
LukeInside Finally someone say something true... thanks dude. I think this game is one of the worst shit I ever play. The soudtrack is just creepy as Fuck. Aweful memories ...
you're welcome
Music was intended to be crazy, yet it's just purely ridiculous. The level design was lousy as heck. Whole game is just bad.
I never got to play this game so I came here to watch the cutscenes. I wish I could get a chance to play this though.
It's not too expensive online like amazon
You can download a rom for free and run it on a ps2 emulator. Just make sure to download the PAL version because I had some issues with the NTSC one (the game can freeze after defeating Dingodile).
24:02
One of my favorite lines from Cortex. The delivery is great!
5: 11 "how I envy the simple life of the trib flock"
Papu Papu: *doing some crash 1 belly fissic *
this always made me laugh
5:11
Who agrees that Lex Lang is the best voice for Cortex?
Look at Cortex' finger then he says keep back in 3:46
oh. how'd that get in?
Yusuf There are so many Adult Jokes in this Game
Notta Reelname Howd this game get a E rating instead of E10.
I think that was an accident but it's still funny to think about
Haha!
"The check bounced? Are you sure? Well, the past few years have kind of been slow, Wrath of Cortex didn't do as well as we hoped and-"
.. fish"?
The Best Cortex of all
I loved how Cortex was so chrarismatic during the entire game. It really made me disappointed as a kid that previous or later Crash games he was just a mad scientist with no character development at all
Nitro Cart's writing was pretty good too.
yesss XDDD
He's not the best Cortex. I prefer when he's a powerful enemy, not a friggin' comedian!
@@aimfuldrifter We can always have both
OMG the scene at 9:16 had me DYING! XDD I love how the fish all of a sudden turns into his gun
watching this made me cry
it was the last actual high quality funny game i played & even with the current gen this game is still a masterpice of fun time
I've never played a game that made me laugh more than this one. Oh my Lord cortex has me dying
14:00
Gotta love how he has to check if that is enough XD
28:19
Me when the whole school starts doing Fortnite dances.
underrated omg
Crash and Cortex are funny as hell on this game
24:02 "I don't care, but HE would like his gems back"
24:04 DUDE! Best cameo!
Obsessor23 ikr?
*gasps* is Sonic!
@Ean Sudholtz DUDE nice ant dude reference!
This game was a rushed mess, yet it still manages to be a fun, hilarious, memorable experience. That is just amazing. I'd love a remake just so they can include all the cut content and make everything 10x better.
14:58 ARE THOSE REAL!!!
"MOTHER!?"
@@cobaltbluestickman5557 *laughs*
WHAT IS IT????!!!!
25:11 Nio Cortex ordering the evil twins to get in their cage is the best part of the game.
20:51
Anyone else play the game even know they have finished it countless times over
Cortex's dialogue and delivery is just precious.
Why is Polar there just chillin' with some shades and a baseball bat? xD
Kronzo revenge after being riding on so many times with nothing in return from crash lol
Kronzo he got left behind in crash warped
And player was able to jump on him in Cortex strikes back to get 10 lives
I think he was just put there as a joke, sorta like how Crunch seemed to think it was an actual birthday party.
6:43- 6:50
Kortex: Im a evil scientist what did you expect this isn't a game.
Excuse me this is a game and you know it also you have to fix the forth wall now... again
The Threaded Guardian this game existed BEYOND the fourth wall... perhaps some sort of 5th wall
@@DRKLCNS1 but that Just puts up more walls
Dont they break walls? Or do they build them? What? Can you make a story that builds an extra Wall?
i mean if we can have birds from another dimension, i think we can have more walls

“I’m an evil scientist what did you expect?”
Cortex is literally the main character of this game. Sometimes i forget crash is even here.
Last real good quality game of crash
Unfortunately it was rushed or else would have been a masterpiece.
Daniel Gonzalez Yup! A fantastic game, the last really good crash bandicoot game. It stands up with the classics, in my opinion. This game tries something new, and has a lot of personality! I love it! It's a shame that it's soo glitchy and broken. The glitches are pretty fun though.....lol But really, this game was really rushed, and that really screwed it over, quality wise.
Daniel Gonzalez yea,and Crash Tag Team Racing wasn't so bad...
+ERROR: #290384AC who knows maybe it will get a remake
Foxy Gamer they'll probably make it too real and ugly if they do. I don't cortex to have a rounder head and I don't want to be able to distinguish individual hairs on crash
God this cortex needs to be in every game
Hands down my favorite game of all time. Had so many memories playing this game as a child and playing it today is even better. I love this game to death.

last good crash game.
the titan games weren't bad, just not, crash bandicoot. it was a beat em up
Toxic Turtle 2140 it WAS crash bandicoot but it was a beat em up
depressed British child I meant as in it didn't have the crash bandicoot feel to it
yeah the titan ones weren't too bad but most of us gave them shit for not being platformers and whatnot, still though, you could argue it's the last real platformer game
wait till the 30th.
