The goal in Crash is to pretty much destroy all the other cars in the arena, demolition-derby style. Where things get interesting is the manner in which you do this; players can choose from 12 cars, each with it's own unique style and handling.

Each car will be made up of over 10,000 polygons, and will feature a realistic damage system; everything on the car can be damaged and will affect how the car handles. Got sideswiped by that hot rod? Your doors will dent and windows will crack. Land on top of a muscle car after you hit a jump? Your chassis and steering could be affected. These will all affect your driving and maneuvering, so kamikazes will have to think twice before smashing everything in sight.

The game will feature a whopping 18 different play modes to keep things fresh, some of which include:

• Free for All - standard death match mode.
• Stuntman - points are scored for successful stunts, jumps, and busting up objects.
• Eliminator - a race where the last person through the checkpoint is out.
• Offensive/Defensive D riving - Take out an opponent in a given time, or survive a two-on-one match.
• Bus Jumping - Evil Kanevil would be proud as you take to the air and try to clear a line of buses.

With a unique scoring system based on damage dealt to other cars, and bonus points awarded for crowd pleasing hits, Crash should have a little more depth to it than just mass destruction.

Lastly, Crash will feature single player, arcade, and career modes, as well as a 4-player split-screen death match and team games. Buckle up and unleash some road rage when Crash hits this Spring.
