Not saying it will be bad game (infact it will be good game of course), but I am just not excited for it at all.
Yes, such a rip-off, because any Kart racing game utilizing gravity is a rip-off of Crash Nitro Kart.
Totally.
Not to mention that Crash Nitro Kart is really not that... spectacular.

Well technically Crash Nitro Kart did that first.

I agree, It is not that spectacular, but it still was the first Kart racing game that utilized gravity like that.
OCG, I really disagree with you here, just because Mario Kart 8 is doing this doesn't mean it's an ATTEMPT at stealing Nitro Karts formula, Nitro Kart and Tag Team Racing kind of sucked anyways, it can't match the original. This just reminds me of people calling Sonic Lost Worlds a rip off of Mario Galaxy because it's utilizing planets and gravity? Common sense here guys, just because one game did it, doesn't mean the other can't, that doesn't make it a rip off at all.
Thanks for sharing opinion. Maybe I am not using word "rip-off" in really good context?
I know people on YouTube in comments for example say that Banjo-Kazooie is really great game but it is still Mario 64 rip-off. Oh and I do agree that CTR is best racing Crash game. Infact no Crash game is better then first 5 on PS1 in my opinion.
I agree, Bash was quite fun when played with others, but becomes quite frustrating and repetitive after a while. I actaully personally prefer Twinsanity over Crash bandicoot 1
I actually really dislike Twinsanity and it is my least favourite Crash game. It's not my worst one but it is my least favourite. Worst one for me is Boom Bang. But hey, we all have different opinions.
The things I disliked about Twinsanity were next:
Bad programming. If you have Aku Aku and you touch Nitro, you die despite having Aku Aku, the game was very glitchy, very short and they made an ilusion that game is open world but in reality it is not. It just feels like an unfinished game. Many reviewers also gave game 6/10 and called it bland. Twinsanity was supposed to be darker game in Ratchet and Clank Style but they scrapped it.
My friend also made rant on Twinsanity so you can check it out:

That's not bad programming, that was ment to be there when you die, I do find it stupid though that they did that. The game was glitchy indeed though. The game felt extremely unfinished because the game had way too much scrapped content, the game could have been a LOT better in my opinion, I think the worlds were still very colorful, vibrant and nice, and the acapella music is charming, I'll take a look at your friends review.
edit: So far I totally agree with your friend, funny how I didn't realize a lot of these at first, to be truly honest ever since Naughty Dog had to leave Crash the series has been a bit... well, bad... The GB titles were good though! (except for Crash Purple.) Wrath of Cortex, despite a lot of people hating it, I liked it because I truly saw an effort was put into it as an attempt to make it like the classic Crash, it was nicely done in some levels, however Wrath of Cortex's biggest flaws were the long loading times and most of the levels were those stupid ball levels. Twinsanity I don't even have to explain since your friend did most of that. Nitro Kart felt too slow, and Tag Team Racing didn't even at ALL feel like a Crash game. Crash 2 and 3 are seriously a prime example of the perfect 3D linear platformer I would rate it a 9.5/10 if I could, I have like NOTHING bad to say about it.
Music was awesome and I agree with that. It is best Crash soundtrack in my opinion.
edit: Glad you agree with him. He pretty much knows everything about Crash so if you have some quesions you can ask him
Oh, and I do agree about Purple and Tag Team Racing with you as well.

Yeah it was a very rushed game, the developer was put on a very tight deadline, which resulted in so much potentially awesome content being scrapped. Reminded me of Enter the Dragonfly however Twinsanity was far superior than that game. For one, the soundtrack was amazing and created a distinguishable atmosphere and overall quirkiness to the game, it just made the slapstick and overall humor that much better. Despite glitches here and there, the game play was pretty solid, which was basically classic Crash gameplay with a more open feel. Though whilst it didn't reach say the high standards of The precursor legacy, it still worked in its own right allowing some gameplay and design elements which wouldn't have been possible in earlier Crash games. The graphics were also pretty good and the story line was decent aswell as boss fights which were well executed and somewhat challenging. The game was very short though, obviously because of all the scrapped content but for what it is its a solid and fun Crash game tampered by glitches here and there. Thats my opinion of course, Crash 2 and 3 are much better games but I would give it like 8.5/10.
