Nothing like Crash Team Racing!

User Rating: 4.8 | Crash Nitro Kart PS2

When I first saw this game, I thought that it would be just like the fun, classic Crash Team Racing(CTR), maybe even better, but it was NOTHING like it. Gameplay: The gameplay is sad. The karts move much slower than they did in CTR, they got three new weapons in(Freeze Mines, Tornado Tops, and Static Orb) which are very pathetic, and they have this whole new "gravity defying" crap which sounds cool, but gives you a headache. Also, the bosses in CTR at least race by themselves, but in CNK, two of the bosses will have a racing buddy or two to try to make you lose. Oh, and I almost forgot, there's this new "Team Frenzy" which is so cheap because it tries to copy Mario Kart: Double Dash's!! famous thing, plus it only happens if your close to your teammate, and the weapons you get don't come in useful. What really ticks me off is that your teammate also has team frenzy which makes them win and not you.

Graphics: The graphics are the only thing they improved upon, but then again, it is on the PS2, and they could have a few improvements here and there.

Sound: The sound is TERRIBLE! The music doesn't have any catchy tunes and you can hardly hear the music. Plus, the characters repeat the same taunts over and over again which is really annoying( especially Coco).

Value: I absolutely hate the value!! The game will start off pretty easy and then make you do all these stupid Relic Races which make you think that the game will never end, and the CNK token challenges will make you spend most of the entire race just looking for them, and trying to collect 20 crystals, which is entirely impossible.

Tilt: Over all, this game should never ever be bought, even if it's $5 or less. One word of advice, if you really like Crash, and you like kart racing, get Crash Team Racing(PS), if you don't like kart racing all that much, but you still like Crash, get Crash Tag Team Racing(PS2, GC, Xbox, PSP), and if you don't really like Crash, but you still like kart racing, get Mario Kart: Double Dash!!(GC) or Mario Kart DS.
