Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back Bad Ending (Cortex's Victory)

by Thomas Epplestone

In the final boss of Crash Bandicoot 2, you chase Cortex and beat him up 3 times. There was a portal at the end which enabled Cortex to escape, meaning that you had to start again. But what if the game had a proper bad ending to show what would've happened if you let Cortex escape? Something I thought of. Crash Bandicoot Belongs to Naughty Dog then Activision

Cortex had just gotten into the Cortex Vortex via a portal after Crash failed to stop him to use the Crystals.

N Gin is at the controls and is relieved that Cortex had arrived.

N Gin: Dr. Cortex, you've made it!

N Cortex: Of course I have you fool, I have Crash Bandicoot to thank for it.

N Gin: Oh, so, Dr, do you have the Crystals ready?

N Cortex: Oh yes, they're ready to cover the entire world, and turn everyone on it into my slaves (laughs evilly).

Moments later, the crystals are being sucked to power the laser ray on the Cortex Vortex.

N Cortex: Finally, with 26 Crystals, I can finally harness the planet's energy and take over the world. N Gin, would like to do the honours?

N Gin: Yes, Dr.

N Gin: (pushes the button to activate the Ray).

Meanwhile on Earth, Coco is shocked as she sees the Cortex Vortex powering up and rebukes Crash for failing to stop Cortex.

Coco: Crash? What have you done?! Cortex has all the Crystals and you've doomed us all!

Back in space the Cortex Vortex is fully charged and the Ray fires one blast and hits the earth thus resulting in the entire humans turned into Cortex mindless slaves. Cortex has finally achieved his goal in enslaving humanity.

N Cortex: (laughs maniacally)
