Paris, FRANCE September 14th, 2004 - Vivendi Universal Games (VU Games) announced today that Crash® TwinsanityTM, the next installment in the best-selling video game franchise, has gone gold. The irrepressible Crash Bandicoot® is set to hit retail shelves this month in his funniest adventure yet! Developed by Traveller's Tales, the new action platformer will be available for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system and the Xbox® video game system from Microsoft.
In Crash Twinsanity, a new evil has invaded the island paradise of Crash Bandicoot with plans of destruction. In a strange twist, Crash begrudgingly pairs with his archenemy, Dr. Cortex, in order to save the world. Through this unorthodox partnership, Crash and Cortex are controlled as one in this all-new gameplay mechanic. Gamers will encounter highly reactive enemies, fully immersive environments and a wacky cast of all-new characters in Crash Bandicoot's craziest and funniest adventure ever.
