And here we go! Our game to rate this week takes us back to the PlayStation past with the original Crash Bandicoot on the original PlayStation! This is another one where I feel bad about leaving out of the first set of fifty. Nonetheless we all have the task of assigning this bad boy a rating! Was it a fun and enjoyable outing? Did it make Crash deserving to be a mascot on the same level as Mario and Sonic and Bill Gates? Was it a poor attempt? Let us know with the poll and your comments! Enjoy your week!
