It's time for another round of Pick One! This week, to celebrate this week's announcement of Crash Bandicoot 4 getting an Xbox Series X upgrade this March, we're looking back at the history of the franchise on Xbox.
Xbox obviously missed out on the classic early titles before they were remade for the Xbox One, but many Crash games have nevertheless appeared on the platform. Which is your favourite? Remember, you can only pick one!
Let's take a look at what we're working with:
Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex (2002)

Crash Bandicoot N'sane trilogy is by far the best is the series..
Missing crash bash - best of the lot
I get why the N. Sane Trilogy is winning, nostalgia and all that... But Crash 4: It's About Time is quite comfortably the best in the series for me. It's not even close, to be honest.
@Olliemar28 really? I haven’t played that yet
Crash Team Racing was really great but have to go with N Sane Trilogy. Crash 4 may play better but I really prefer the trilogy’s visual design.
Wrath of cortex. It was the first crash game that was actually a decent game, and wasn't made by Naughty Dog. My displeasure with Naughty Dog began with Crash and ends with TLoU2.
Crash tag team racing for me. Used to get lost for hours exploring the theme park in it
I never knew tag team racing was remastered in CTR Nitro-Fueled. Will have to try out
