Crash Nitro Kart

"This is an excelleny kart game."

Crash Bandicoot first came out for Gamecube. The game was a great hit so they made more games. Crash Bandicoot also has Crash Bash and Crash Team Racing. Crash Nitro is the second kart game release out of the series.

Story 8/10

The story goes like this: While the Bandicoots are relaxing and Cortex and his army are planning a way to get back at the Bandicoots a light appears and abducts them. They are to taken to a planet rule by an emperor name Velo XXVll who wants them to race or he will blow up earth.

Graphics 9/10

The graphics are pretty good. The character models are fine and the cutscenes are nice to watch. The thing I like the most is the effort they put into the tracks. The Tracks have wonderful designs and are designed beautifully.

Sound 7/10

The sound for this game is not so great. The chaacters voices are annoying and can get repetive. Some ofthe voices are good like N. Gin and Dingodile and some are annoying like Coco and N. Trance. Some of the Tracks music is also annoying. Thank god you can mute it.

Controls 9/10

The controls are fine but the only problem is doing the power slide.

Gameplay 10/10

Crash Nitro Kart has so many features and I will explain them all.

Adventure Mode: In adventure mode you can choose from team bandicoot or team cortex. Then you race on tracks to earn trophies. You have four worlds to race around in them after you earn three trophies you can race the champion of that world and get a key. After you get four keys you can race Velo. The are more stuff you can get Cnk tokens, relics and gems and unlock characters.

Single Player: You can do quick races, team races, cup tournament, laptime trials, and race time trials.

Multiplayer: You can attle or race other friends.

Extras: You can design battle arenas, view credit, and watch cutscenes.

Overall Score- 9/10
