Crash Team Racing is a kart racing game featuring popular characters from the Crash Bandicoot series. The gameplay is very similar to other kart racing video games like Mario Kart: players have to choose a character and compete against the other racers on various racetracks. The story mode allows you to choose any one of the characters to complete all the main races and beat the ultimate boss Nitrous Oxide. Each of the main races are against 7 other AI competitors with 5 boss races. There are also a few arcade modes up to 4 players.
An egotistical space alien by the name of Nitros Oxide comes to Earth and challenges Crash Bandicoot, his friends and foes to a racing competition before facing himself, threatening to turn the world into a concrete parking lot if he wins.
With that said, this game is absolutely fantastic. It is maybe the best racing game that i have played so far, which is saying something, because it was largely made by a team which was highly inexperienced about racing games.
The naughty dog crash games have been a wild ride for me and an absolutely gorgeous one at that.
Give Crash Bandicoot 1,2,3, and team racing a try if you can. They truly deserve your time.
