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)
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)
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)
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)
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)
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)
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)
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

Happy memories! I'm just bagging this one now, I will do the actual reviewing later, probably tomorrow evening. J Milburn ( talk) 22:44, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
I really should be going to bed, but here are some opening thoughts-
Ok, I'll give it a proper look over soon. I'll make little fixes as I go, I'd love to see this article do well! J Milburn ( talk) 23:00, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
Ok, I'm taking a look through.
Sorry if I'm sounding over-critical, this is generally a very nice article! So you're clear, I made a few changes. Hope you're able to deal with the issues I've raised- there's no great rush. J Milburn ( talk) 22:45, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
Ok, I'm taking another look.
Definitely getting there, this is a great article. So we're clear, I made a few more edits. J Milburn ( talk) 18:46, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
Ok, I think I'm ready to promote now. This article isn't perfect (some sections of text are still a little choppy, the references could do with some more wikilinks in places, the lead seems to have a slight over-focus on the various releases, we're waiting on a size reduction of the screenshot, etc) but I feel it is strong enough for good article. If you interested in heading to FAC, I recommend you try to get hold of a copyeditor, and I strongly suggest you put the article through peer review first. If you're interested in any further review, whether formally or informally, feel free to contact me. J Milburn ( talk) 09:11, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
