    Why is this like this, I've been a crash fan since 2 and I tried to like this game. This game tried to be like the Crash games on the GBA and it fails. Crash of the titans on the Ds is a 3d platforming brawler like the psp, and console versions but not mind over mutant. The psp version is like the console version while the ds version is a clunky, uninspired, 2d platformer.

Don't buy this game, ether get the gba games or the console version… Expand

    I don't think the game is that bad as many people make it out to be, Mind Over Mutant DS or Mind over DS has potential such as collecting mojos and doing fun platforms but there are still flaws which are dull animations that don't seem right, some levels are kind of too hard and the boss challenge is kind of too hard to defeat. the Music is at least decent for the DS game and the ChallengeI don't think the game is that bad as many people make it out to be, Mind Over Mutant DS or Mind over DS has potential such as collecting mojos and doing fun platforms but there are still flaws which are dull animations that don't seem right, some levels are kind of too hard and the boss challenge is kind of too hard to defeat. the Music is at least decent for the DS game and the Challenge to get costumes are cool but the challenges are alright.

    The Game is not bad it is just Mediocre compare to Mind Over Mutant on the Consoles.    … Expand

    No, no and no; don't play this game. It has no personality, forgettable OST, the plot is stupid, and the design is just awful.

    Esta version es terrible. posiblemente la peor manera de jugar la formula Titans/Mutants. CASI TODO EN ESTA VERSION ES DE TITANS. Las canciones, los estilos, TODO. Intentaron poner el plot de mind over mutant original en solo dos escenas Y TODAS ESTAN FUERA DE CONTEXTO. El gameplay? Una completa mierda. Es solo golpear, patear y girar.

Las canciones, los estilos, TODO. Intentaron poner el plot de mind over mutant original en solo dos escenas Y TODAS ESTAN FUERA DE CONTEXTO. El gameplay? Una completa mierda. Es solo golpear, patear y girar. Y cuando enfrentas a mutantes reciclados de Titans es simplemente quien se muere primero. Y ES ASI TODAS LAS 5 HORAS DE JUEGO. La musica aunque es un punto bueno, Son a veces molestas y refritos de titans. Aunque estos siguen con buenos puntos! Como la musica, Siguiendo los clasicos movimientos de naughty dog (Como el planchazo) y aunque tengan una animacion nefasta, Tienen buenos modelos 3D. Una mejora de Titans DS. Pero aun asi un asco total.

    This version is terrible. possibly the worst way to play the Titans / Mutants formula. ALMOST EVERYTHING IN THIS VERSION IS FROM TITANS. The songs, the styles, EVERYTHING. They tried to put the original mind over mutant plot in just two scenes AND THEY ARE ALL OUT OF CONTEXT. The gameplay? Complete **** It's just hitting, kicking and spinning. And when you face recycled mutants from Titans it's just the one who dies first. AND IT IS SO ALL 5 HOURS OF GAME. The music although it is a good point, They are sometimes annoying and refried from titans. Although these still have good points! Like the music, Following the classic movements of naughty dog (Like the flat iron) and although they have a disastrous animation, They have good 3D models. An upgrade from Titans DS. But still a total disgust.

    I played this game out of love for Mind Over Mutant and hope it will be as good as DS Titans; but what I get is a 2D game that doesn't look any better than GBA's Crash; It's not the worst Crash game, but it's the most disappointing, generic settings, forgettable OST, dull moves, and limited amount of mutants

    Es un buen juego para pasar el rato, es diferente en muchos aspectos de el Mind Over Mutant de PS2, uno de ellos son los jefes, es una nueva experiencia.

    I'm a fan of retro gaming but this 2D version of Crash Bandicoot is just awful.

    I will have to say that Crash: Mind Over Mutant is a very fun and innovative game that is easy to get into and play.

    Crash: Mind Over Mutant is a competent platformer. While it leaves much to be desired in terms of depth and level design, fans of the titular Bandicoot or starved DS platform lovers may enjoy it. Others should pass this one by.

    A very dull, poorly designed 2D platformer that fails to thrill or challenge. [Jan 2009, p.77]
