Such an improvement over "The Wrath of Cortex". This game is fun.

One of my complaints with "The Wrath of Cortex" was that it didn't feel like the original games. Now, "Crash Twinsanity" is even less similar to those games. It's more of an open world game, this works well and it's a welcome addition. And it's a LOT better than Wrath of Cortex. This is actually a really fun platformer. You get to play as Crash, but also as Dr. Cortex and a new character, Nina Cortex. You only get to play as them in one level and in the last boss fight. But these levels are a nice break from the usual standard platforming stages with Crash. As you may know, Crash and Cortex has to team up in this game, but you can't switch between the characters. You use a crystal to link the two characters together, kinda like in "Knuckles Chaotix". Then you can do certain special attacks, like using Cortex as a mallet, trhrowing him or get a bigger spin attack. Most of the original characters are back this time around, and you get to fight creeps like N.Brio, N. Trophy, N. Gin, Dingodile and UkaUka. The boss fights in this game are actually pretty awesome and clever. The stages are fun and varied and the music is insane, ina good way....well, most of the time. This game is a great platformer, and proves that Crash still got it. And what a relief that is. Can't wait to play the next couple of games in this series.
