Crash Bandicoot 3

Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped is a platformer developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. The third game in the series, it sends Crash and his sister Coco through time to collect crystals before Doctor Neo Cortex and Uka Uka can. It sold close to six million copies and is widely regarded as one of the best games on the system.

Eight PAL variants are catalogued, with an earliest release date of 11 December 1998. They span the UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and Greece, across three release types: Original, Platinum and Special Bundle. Every variant uses a single disc Full Jewel PAL case, and both Hologram A and Hologram B cases are documented. The game includes English, French, German, Italian and Spanish language options.

Some copies include loose paperwork, namely an Official Peripherals leaflet covering the Dual Shock, Guncon and Multitap, plus a Spyro and Memory Card leaflet. The Winter Releases ‘98 demo is also documented as a bundled demo.

The UK has both Hologram A and Hologram B Original pressings, which is of particular interest, and the Special Bundle adds another layer for those who want a complete set, so this is a rewarding game to collect in full.
