Ok I love Crash games, and a new game on the way has caught my attention! lets check it out:
quotes from wikipedia:
The Plot
In a nefarious plot to unleash destruction, Crash Bandicoot 's arch-nemeses, Dr. Neo and Nina Cortex, have mutated the creatures of Crash's island into monstrous abominations! Never one to shirk from danger, our orange furry friend finds that with his potent mix of wacky bravado and daredevil action he is able to hijack the titanic monsters and wield their immense powers against each other! Bring on the titans, because with Crash in charge, the bigger the baddie, the better!
Ok, so you can now control enemys, a new aspect to attempt to bring a new gameplay feel, it depends on how it's executed, but hey it could work!
Charecters
Nine returning characters from previous Crash titles have been confirmed so far: Crash, Doctor Cortex, Coco Bandicoot, Nina Cortex, Crunch Bandicoot, Doctor N. Gin, Tiny Tiger, Aku Aku, and Uka Uka. The characters have been redesigned as to give them a modern look that is distinct from other cartoon characters. A "Carbon Crash" is also playable in the two-player co-op mode.
This is my major concern, firstly what is carbon crash? why not use fake crash? he's awesome, and look at the charecters, they look like shit:

When I first saw this picture, I thought it was some kind of joke, are they serious? I mean if your a fan of crash bandicoot, then you know what I mean, look a Uka Uka he looks nothing like he did in every single other crash game, Aku Aku has let himself go, he is fat, why have they done this? did they think it's cool? give the charecters a new look? NO it's not, and while were talking about charecters, look a tiny tiger, Tiny is the hybrid of a Tasmania tiger, not an actual fucking tiger, and worst of all look at crunch, he looks as if he is actually reatarded, I know he wanted to lose weight but come on, and what's happened to his metal arm? it looks like it's only good for turbo mastubation, why would they want to give them a modern look? The other charecters however are ok, also they must have dingodile and N trophy, maybe even have a few oldies return such as Kong or Ripper Roo.
Gameplay
Crash has donned new markings on his wrists and hands. When he is shown commanding a titan in screenshots, these marks appear to glow. This means the marks are a plot point, not a random redesign. Aku Aku will also play a significant role in this mechanism; when Crash takes control of a titan, Aku Aku transforms himself to fit onto the titan's face. He can also be used as a skateboard-type object in certain sections of the game.
Fair enough, the thouht of using Aku Aku as a skateborad intirgues me.
Boy has this series gone down, ever since CTR the Crash games have got worse and worse, a shame the first were excellent and CTR was great, CB sucked, WOC was mediocre at best, NK sucked, TS was funny, TTR is ok, BBB is a shamefull turd comming out of a bandicoots ass.
