First and foremost, this is possibly my favorite video game of all time. Nostalgia blinds me a bit, but it is, if not my favorite.
This and the last game are nearly tied in execution for perfect gaming. The variety in levels expands to great lengths creating an extensive amount of gameplay options. Running, riding, racing, swimming, flying, etc! Even though the flying levels are a smidge clunky, and the swimming ones are slow.
Any rough edges around the gameplay from 2 has been cleaned up here. A couple more moves added, along with the hilarious bazooka! The boss fights are instantly more memorable and just a hair more challenging than 2, and the score competes with the 2nd as well!
It is very rare for a trilogy of games to get better and better with each installment. Not just by adding more, but improving the lesser mechanics and also not forgetting about anything or leaving things behind. Crash Warped is imo, the best Crash game.
