Best Kart Racing Game Ever!
Date of Review: Jan 2, 2008
The Bottom Line: CTR is the hidden gem of all Kart racing games, on Playstation 1 and on all other consoles since.
Yeah, thats right, I like it more than old- school Mario Kart, any lego racer, that crappy remake they did called crash tag team racing, heck I think crash team racing (CTR) is better than Gran Turismo. WHY? CTR has easy to learn moves, mainly the power slide that becomes so natural, and so, so, ever-so important to use in crucial situations. Even the fastest of all the racers had to beware of the best line-up of weapons that ever existed that I can remember. TNT crates, potions, missiles, bombs and the warp ball thinger, Wow the memories! This game was perfection! Perfection I tell you. Yes, it is a spin-off of Mario Kart, but the level design is more deep in CTR, and weapons more fun to use plus the Kart racing feel with the playstation controller is unmatched, and sadly has not yet been accomplished again.
Multiplayer racing was what made the game incredible, one on one race tracks, mano y mano deathmatch, and other stuff that didnt matter because the game was too awesome for its own awesomness!
Storyline included some alien challenging Crash and his buddies to race to death, or he will destroy the planet. So the story was bland, but look at Mario Kart, or any mario game for that matter, there is none. Bosses were challenging, until you became a master at the tracks.
The cast was all here in CTR, from unlockable Bosses to hidden gems.
So please, if you ever come across this game do yourself a favor and buy the game.
