    Crash Tag Team Racing comes a year after the old Double-Dash did in the venerable Mario Kart on Gamecube and double-dashed the hopes of many a fan. But don't be fooled by the immediate resemblance here: Crash Tag Team Racing might look like a Double-Dash rip-off, but in reality it has much more to offer. Combining a quality Crash platformer with zany, fast-paced racing action, Crash Tag Team Racing is unlike any other game we've played. Still not convinced? OK, then, two... Read more

  2. Goofy combat racing that's packed with variety, or far-too-cutesy and shallow like the kiddie end of the pool? We race, you decide.

    Those partial to the Crash brand of humor, who don't mind the game's overriding "kiddieness," will definitely want to focus on the vibrant, ambient tracks and the replay value of the multiplayer. While the cars could use a greater sense of mass, it's smooth racing with a decent framerate even when things on the track get hairy (and this is when they're most fun). Players more concerned with depth of gameplay than anything else may want to consider a rental first. Read more

    Crash Tag Team racing is an enjoyable, although rather confused videogame. If you're looking for a really good kart racer, this might not meet your needs, but as a combined racer/platformer, it does a good job. It's pretty easy, but never dull, and the cast of crazy characters and variety in gameplay should appeal to the younger market that the game was so obviously designed for. Read more

    Young children may enjoy this game for its cartoonish characters and fairly easy gameplay, as will arcade freaks despite the loading times that will continually test their patience. The rest, keep away. There's a million much better things to do with your time. Read more

    A racing game in the same way that the WWE is a sport, Crash Tag Team Racing distracts you from a partially formed driving game with pomp, circumstance, and platforming. Read more

    With Crash Nitro Kart all you do is race, race and more race. But this is completely different you get to walk around the place your supposed to be racing in which is really fun and there are lots of mini-games for you to earn coins in. And you can purchase clothes for a character! And if you do jobs for your rivals you will be able to race as them! The characters are Crash, Coco, Cortex, Crunch, Nina, N.gin and two new characters Pasadena and Von Clutch! 100% HIGHLY... Read more
