''Crash Tag Team Racing'' known in Japan as Crash Bandicoot Gacchanko world (クラッシュ・バンディクー がっちゃんこワールド Kurasshu bandikū ga~tsu chanko wārudo) is a racing video game published by Sierra Entertainment internationally and Vivendi Universal Games in Japan and developed by Vancouver-based Radical Entertainment for the PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, Xbox and PlayStation Portable. A Nintendo DS version, which was to be developed by Sensory Sweep Studios rather than Radical Entertainment, was also to be released, but was eventually cancelled. The game was released in North America on October 19, 2005, in Europe on November 4, 2005 and in Japan on December 1, 2005. The PlayStation 2 version was re-released in the three-disc "Crash Bandicoot Action Pack" compilation (alongside ''Crash Nitro Kart'' and ''Crash Twinsanity'') in the United States on June 12, 2007 and in Europe on July 20, 2007.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Crash Bandicoot Action Pack'' Related Games )〕 ''Crash Tag Team Racing'' is the twelfth installment in the ''Crash Bandicoot'' series, as well as the third racing game, following ''Crash Nitro Kart'', which was an indirect sequel to ''Crash Team Racing''. It is the first ''Crash'' game to have a rating higher than E in North America or a 3+ in Europe, due to the game featuring "cartoon violence and crude humor". It is also the third ''Crash Bandicoot'' title in the racing genre, the first and second titles being ''Crash Team Racing'' and ''Crash Nitro Kart'', respectively. The game's story centers on the exploits of the protagonist, Crash Bandicoot, who must win the ownership of a dilapidated theme park by finding its missing Power Gems before his nemesis, Doctor Neo Cortex, can. ==Gameplay== The player takes control of Crash Bandicoot, who must retrieve the Black Power Gem of Ebenezer Von Clutch, along with the missing Power Gems in each of the five themed areas of the park. The player will compete in races and minigames to earn Wumpa Coins, the park's currency, and Power Crystals, find the Power Gem needed to open up the five areas of the park, and ultimately unveil the mystery of the Power Gem thief's identity.〔 As the player explores the park, race gates can be entered to unlock new racetracks, battle arenas, stunt tracks, and driving minigames.〔 Extra Wumpa Coins and Power Crystals can be earned by playing driving minigames, some of which involve driving for the best lap time, crashing into as many obstacles as possible, shooting at trackside objects, and shooting at moving cars.〔 Characters with an icon over their heads can be talked to unlock cars, weapon upgrades, clothing, or to play minigames.〔 The player can smash crates and collect Wumpa Coins in order to buy rewards such as new clothing; drinking Wumpa Whip gives the player a temporary coin multiplier that earns extra money from Wumpa Coins and crates.〔 Collecting Power Crystals is required to unlock the Power Gem at the end of a themed area, which unlocks an additional area of the theme park.〔 Mini-cartoons, called "Die-O-Ramas", can also be unlocked; these cutscenes display Crash being killed off in various, and largely humorous ways. Unlocking all 34 Die-O-Ramas unlocks another costume for Crash.〔 The Die-O-Ramas can be viewed at any time under the Extras section in the main menu.〔 The main hook of ''Crash Tag Team Racing'' is the "clashing" feature found during the racing sections of the game. The player can "clash" with another vehicle by pressing a certain button depending on the gaming platform.〔 The player's vehicle will merge with a nearby opponent's vehicle, and the player will then take control of a powerful turret weapon to shoot at other vehicles.〔 The turret can not only be used to shoot at enemy cars, but also to take out incoming attacks.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crash Tag Team Racing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
