Game description: The fifth Crash adventure features engaging gameplay, quirky characters and exotic locales. Still smarting from his last defeat, Dr. Neo Cortex has developed a new diabolical plan to steal ancient crystals and unleash destructive gods on Crash and the planet Earth. With Crash and his sister Coco, it's now up to you to find and return all the crystals across dangerous levels, including a volcanic island, a Japanese village, and the jungles of Africa. You'll find many ways to move around, whether you maneuver a Jeep, fly a hang glider, or pilot a Crash-Mech. But don't marvel too long at the new inventions, because you might find yourself in a heap of destruction.

(12M Cache, 2.33 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB)
|
PCSX2 0.9.9.4627 | GSdx 4643 |
|
BIOS: SCPH39001, HACKS: Works with all speedhacks., Works perfectly except for a flickering filter. The vehicle sections on levels 17 and 24 are nearly unplayable due to graphical artifacts covering the screen. Enabling MTVU causes a slowdown instead of a speed up. | MyDreamName |
NTSC-U | Windows |
|
1.1.0 r5576 | GSdx 5570 SSE41 |
|
Runs above full speed., Draw distance is bugged in gsdx hardware mode. Looks fine in software mode. | |
PAL | Windows |
|
1.1.0 r5829 | GSDX |
|
Europe v01.70(27/02/2003), MTVU, INTC Spin Detection, Enable Wait Loop Detection, mVU Flag Hack, Still Playable. Game works fine at a good speed. I believe in the later stages (some of) there is an overlay of corruption which can be solved with software mode or somewhat with skipdraw, but i can't remember the setting for that. | |
NTSC-U | Windows 7 |

Game works very well. It's pretty demanding, but EE cycle rate hack will help. MTVU will cause slowdown in some areas, and is not recommended. A few levels require software mode, but most are fine in hardware. | Blyss Sarania |

This game works very well, with slowdowns to 40fps, but usually hitting 60fps. The EE cycle rate hack really helps in most cases with the slowdowns issue. At times, there can be some graphical bugs in some levels, especially with the fog effect. | wiltaprizes |
