Talk:Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back

Spyro Demo
There was a spyro demo in the game as a special feature if a certain key combination was pressed at the beginning menu. Is this worth a mention? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.13.228.132 (talk) 20:27, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Blue Gem
Hi,I have Crash Bandicoot 2 and i wouldapreciate if someone could tell me how to get the Blue Gem from Level I. Thanks David.

You can get the blue gem by completing the level without breaking any of the crates. This is hinted at by the x / 0 crates indicator at the end of the level after you have acquired the white gem. For future reference, an indespensible source for video game walkthroughs is http://www.gamefaqs.com/ (for Crash 2, see http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/game/196987.html). -- MIT Trekkie 16:26, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

WHAT HAPPEND AT THE END
i never completed this game what happens at the end? both endings plz

As usual Crash saves the world. Cortex leads him off into a jetpack ride thru space speeding around asteroids and junk, and in the end, you win. Dont really remember how.

Also, when you get all the gems there is this giant laser cannon thing that destroys Cortex's spaceship. Fun Fun. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.13.228.132 (talk) 14:10, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

.ogg
Why? Always, Wikipedia's wierd file .ogg! I hate it! My computer doesn't read this type! Do something about it! Put things in .avi .swf .gif .jpg, not .ogg! -71.224.24.99 19:52, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Cleaning up the article
Most of this is quite poorly written and insubstantial.

I've begun rewriting it (only done Gameplay so far) and have added a few images.

I'll get round to finishing it off soon.

I've done quite a bit of editing in this article. What do you think? 129.173.172.154 (talk) 21:20, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Expert
An expert needs to relook at this article, it seems that somehow the first game article got mushed into this one, it is very, very confusing. Lots42 (talk) 18:43, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Level puns?
There's some puns in a lot of the level names. Shouldn't there be a section on this?

For example there's levels called: Un-Bearable, Sewer or Later, Bear It, Bear Down, Bee-Having, The Eel Deal, Rock It, Pack Attack, Snow Go, Snow Biz, Hang Eight, Cold Hard Crash, Piston it Away, Spaced Out, etc. 75.173.243.169 (talk) 20:21, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It's rather trivial, not to mention unsourced original research. I say no. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 02:11, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Road to Ruin
In road to ruin, when you first enter, off to the left are several unfinished boxes hanging in the air. Just to the left of that is a steel box with a ! symbol. How do you get across to that or how do you get the unfinished boxes to finish?216.123.238.118 (talk) 19:38, 14 August 2009 (UTC)help

psn
crash 2 is on psn and this page says it isn't. whenever i change it to say that it really is on psn some retard changes it back. Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.241.230.114 (talk) 14:22, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Because there is no reliable online source that says it is. And please refrain from name-calling on Wikipedia; it's rather uncivil. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 17:40, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * wow, even on wikipedia it says it's on psn, just go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PSOne_Classicsare you saying wikipedia is unreliable?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.241.230.114 (talk) 00:24, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * First of all, that page does not confirm that the game made it back onto the PSN after it was withdrawn. And secondly, Wikipedia pages can't be used as references. Only outside sources, such as gaming journals or websites, can. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 00:59, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * i know for a fact that it's on psn since i have it on psn, and i'm pretty sure if you just look up "crash bandicoot 2: cortex strikes back psn" you'll find a few thousand websites that say it's on psn. for example http://ps3.gamespy.com/playstation-3/crash-bandicoot-2-cortex-strikes-back-psn/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.241.230.114 (talk) 01:14, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * That url only states the games first release date on the network, as in before it was withdrawn. I don't see any evidence that it was returned to the network after its withdrawal. Oh, and first-hand accounts (as in saying that you bought it recently) are unsourced and aren't allowed on Wikipedia Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 04:02, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * wait a minute, the url says it was released on january 10, 2008, but if you go to the reception part of this article, it says it was removed on august 7, 2007. So actually the url states the games second release on psn. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.241.230.114 (talk) 13:45, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll work it in there. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 17:56, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
