Product Description
Amazon.ca Product Description
Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure marks the first time Crash has appeared on a handheld system. The game contains 20 levels and features six unique locations that take Crash from the Mayan jungle to frigid Arctic caverns. Gameplay modes include side-scrolling, 3-D chase levels and aerial dogfight combat sequences. Crash is once again pitted against his archnemesis, the evil Dr. Neo Cortex. Orbiting high above Earth, Cortex has decided to abandon his fixation on our hero and redirect his evil focus to world domination. Using his latest invention, a massive shrinking ray, Cortex takes aim and fires at Earth, shrinking the planet to the size of a grapefruit. Luckily, Crash's brilliant kid sister Coco is feverishly working on a machine to reverse the effects, but she needs crystals from around the world to power her invention. It is up to Crash to retrieve the crystals and help return the entire planet to its natural state.
Gamespot Product Review
Crash Bandicoot was one of the original PlayStation's first--and indeed only--mascots, and though he was never quite as important to Sony as Mario and Sonic have been to Nintendo and Sega, he nevertheless provided PlayStation gamers with some quality platforming fun, as well as a couple of spinoff titles shamelessly "influenced" by Mario spinoffs. Now the lanky orange marsupial's made his way onto Game Boy Advance in an adventure that's suspiciously similar to Crash 3 and in many ways is superior to his recent PlayStation2 appearance.
The gameplay is classic Crash, mainly involving running, jumping, and spinning through 2-D platform levels, with the odd bit of scuba diving and jetpacking thrown in and occasional toward-the-screen bear-avoiding escapades. There are four sets of five levels each. In order to face each section's boss and collect a swanky power-up, you'll only need to get to the end of each level and collect a pink crystal; but to finish the game completely each level must be completed at least twice, once with all the boxes being collected and once beating a preset speed. There are also hidden bits of certain levels that can only be unlocked by collecting colored gems hidden in other levels.
As ever, there's no shortage of extra lives to pick up, and there are midlevel checkpoints and protective voodoo masks to collect, all of which prevent too much repetition, and you can save onto the cartridge after every level. The graphics and sound are great--Crash fans will be surprised at how smooth the transition from home console to handheld has been--and the gameplay is as polished and addictive as ever. All this adds up to another worthy hit for Crash; the GBA is a perfect new home for him. --Rikki Price

Super, but they can do better.,
By sanim (Montreal Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure (Video Game)
When ever a psone game hit's a new console it allways forget's something's.This game is the same thing.It was a great hit but they forgot a lot of important things.The game is called "The Huge Adventure" so you might think that the game is really big.WRONG!The game is super small.I can finished it a 100% in a maximum time of 6 hour's.Well the game is preety much the same as crash 2 and warped.Like the space,rocket,bike and underwater levels are from crash warped, amd the icy cave,polar ride,jungle and drain levels are from crash 2.The boss aren't different either.Like Tiny,N.Gin and cortex are from Crash 2, while Dingondile is from Crash warped.The other thing is that in the past Crash games there were in a total of 25 crystal's.While in this game there's only 20 crystal's.Allso in the past games of crash except crash 1, there were 5 boss.But in this game there's only 4, without the monster.Anyway's here are the pros and cons.Pros: Cons: In an overall is games great and is a must to buy, but you'll finish it quickly.Get the game right away if you're a crash fan.If not rent it first.But still i say that get the game if i were you.

Crash is Cool,
By A Customer
This review is from: Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure (Video Game)
Any Crash lover will enjoy this action-packed game. This fun and excting game features 20 cool levels. You can have fun finding crystals, and winning gems and relics while exploring dangerous jungles, slime filled factories, treachorous snow caverns, creepy space, and shark filled seas. Plus, you can battle the evil villan Dr. Neo Cortex and three of his other loyal creatures. This game is all the fun of the other Crash games except now it can be played on the the Game Boy Advance or Game Boy Advance SP, so you could take it anywhere. Definetly worth the price.
