Easily the most chaotic Crash Bandicoot game with a tonne of different gameplay modes so you never know what you're going to get when you enter a level. I loved the hamster ball stages, particularly, but also embraced the chaos, leading me to the love of Sonic I have today.
I love it when I was young and it saddens me that they never remake it when you have the insane collection but they say this one was canon, but it was still one that it was fun, I hope to sees a remake of this game in the future to preserve it.
Although I admit that this isn't the best Crash Bandicoot game, it's a game that holds a big part of my heart. When I was little, I was already a big fan of Crash Bandicoot on PS1, and then one Christmas Eve, along with the PS2, I got Crash Twinsanity and this Crash Wrath of Cortex, which I have very fond memories of.
Aside from that, despite this game largely following the Crash 3 Warped formula, this one offers some unique features, such as the introduction of Crunch as an antagonist (who is one of my favorite characters in the series) and quite a few vehicle-based levels (I really liked the levels in a hamster ball and in the exoskeleton-like form).

Sonic HeroesSonic Heroes is an adventure and multiplatform video game in the Sonic The Hedgehog series, developed by Sonic Team and published by SEGA for the Nintendo GameCube, Sony PlayStation 2, Microsoft Xbox and Microsoft Windows PCs.

This game differs from other Sonic games by allowing the player to take control of one of four teams, each with three characters, who each have unique abilities to use. The game received mixed reviews from critics but it performed commercially well, becoming a million-seller and making the best-selling lists for all three of its original platforms.

Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-ZeroMortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero is a story-driven fighting game that casts you in the shoes of Sub-Zero, and chronicles a series of events that occurred prior to Mortal Kombat 1. It is the first Mortal Kombat game to feature side-scrolling gameplay.
Gameplay wise the game takes the Mortal Kombat familiar 2D fighting environment and turns it into a hybrid fighter/platformer game, where you must travel trough hazardous levels running and jumping around as well as fighting your way against both digitized and polygonal enemies. Sub-Zero's interface is the same as in every MK game, with the addition of a "use" and "turn around" buttons and additions such as an inventory, and a slight RPG twist in which you get exp. for defeating opponents, which translates into new techniques and moves to execute in the game.Action Fantasy
