Crash Bandicoot: Mind Over Mutant - announced

twilightprince | April 15, 2008 | News | Playstation 2 Wii 
The newest entry in the Crash Bandicoot series, titled "Crash Bandicoot: Mind Over Mutant" will be hitting the DS, Wii, PS2, PSP, and Xbox 360.

Crash's latest adventure features a "Free-Romping" world design, a new "Roll-and Counter" combat system, and for the first time in the series, Crash teams up with Coco, his sister, in co-op mode.
In Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant, a rejuvenated Neo Cortex is taking over the world one brain at a time! Cortex and N. Brio devise a new kind of evil; a text-messaging, do-anything device which controls both mutant and bandicoot minds. Armed with his quick-wits and lightening agility, Crash must free his friends, the titans and save the day!

    No Ps3', that sucks though the crash bandicoot games these days just don't have the same feel for me as the originals did. Maybe in time i'll consider it for ps2.

    Meh they know that PS3 owners have a much higher standard of games and would burn the developers alive if they released this on our console

    Why aren't they having a PS3 version? Anyway, I'm not a big Crash Bandicoot fan, but I do enjoy some of his games (Such as Crash Bandicoot 2, Crash Bandicoot 3 and Twin Sanity). I'll have to give this one a try too.

    i used to like Crash, but they *bleep*ed his games up like sonic...but not as bad.
    i might think about renting it.

    I still don't know what that is, but I know of a few people who will be excited, and happy to get this.

    I find it so funny that so many games on the Wii are on PS2.

      It's also on 360.

      What's your point?

        His point is simply showing Wii's standards matching up to the PS2's. Well, we know the Wii isn't as powerful as the 360 and PS3, but meh, should have at least been better than PS2's, a last-gen, standards.

        Sweet, a new Crash game! I haven't played one since Crash 2 for the PS. Co-Op? Smart move, Naughty Dog.

          Tbh, it seems like laziness on Nintendo's part. Rather than focusing on the next-gen third party titles, they're getting a hell of alot of PS2 ports or PS2-quality games.

          They really need to step up their game when it comes to creating games with next-gen quality.

          Trust me, after Crash 3: Warped...you haven't missed much at all.

          It was actually refreshing for me when I went back to the very first Crash Bandicoot game on the PSP and all.

          Gothic Girl I seriously doubt they will ever do that, they haven't done it yet, maybe when both PS3 and 360 is kicking its butt Monthly will they realize the truth of your words.

            Not Naughty Dog. Didn't y'know they quit after Team Racing?

            Bringing back N. Brio and co-op mode sounds good.

      I find it to be sad. 90% of these ports suck complete balls and there's no stopping them.

    @Seeker, what about CTR?

    Anyway, I don't see myself buying this. I bought Crash of the Titans, and it just felt weird to be playing as a tatooed Crash in a game totally different to the originals. It wasn't bad, but I'm not gonna pay for a sequel.

      Personally, I would pick Wrath of Cortex as a "meatier" game. I liked Crash Team Racing though, just not much in it to keep me playing...sure as hell was better than Crash Bash.

        Crash Bash was decent, but everything after that quickly rolled down into mediocrity.

    Brio being a major character again is a great idea (but considering that he hated Cortex in CSB, it seems strange). That said, I haven't even touched Titans, so I'm not sure what to expect from this one.

    Well there is one thing that can come out of this, 60 and 80GB owners can still play this game on the PS3

    The last great Crach game was Crash Team Racing. Everything after that was lousy.

    And why not on PS3? That makes a lot of sense...

    Sounds cool; I've always been a Crash Bandicoot fan. I just hope this game isn't over-hyped like a lot of recent games.

    Crash games just aren't the same any more. Ever since Travellor's Tales let it go, it's been shocking.

      Thank you, Crash Bandicoot isn't shit without Naughty Dog.

    Crash Bandicoot Warped was the last great Crash game, imo.
