==Profiles==
===Crash Bandicoot===
*Manual
“His early years truly molded this wretched creature into the Mad Scientist he is today. Often ridiculed by the scientific community for his outlandish (yet nearly workable) theories, Dr. Cortex is motivated by one driving force- to shut those know-it-alls up once and for all. Now if he can do this by creating a mutated army of once-animals, now-armored beasts, then that will just make his day. It will also make him supreme ruler of the planet.”https://archive.org/details/crash-bandicoot-1996-sony-computer-entertainment/page/n19/mode/2up?view=theater
===Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back===
*Manual
“Cortex claims to have learned his lesson. He says he’s out to save the world. But a word of advice – no matter what you do, don’t turn your back on this guy unless you’re running full tilt in the opposite direction.”https://archive.org/details/crash-bandicoot-2-cortex-strikes-back-playstation-manual/page/n9/mode/2up?view=theater
===Crash Bandicoot: Warped===
*Manual
“Cortex won’t rest until bandicoots are extinct.”https://archive.org/details/crashwarped/page/n7/mode/2up?view=theater
===CTR: Crash Team Racing===
*Manual
“Crash’s former arch-enemy, evil Dr. Cortex wants to stop Oxide as much as anyone. Cortex is quite upset. “Who does this Oxide think he his? I was here first! It’s MY world to conquer!” The Cortex kart is a good all-round performer like the Crash kart.”
===Crash Bash===
*Manual (NTSC-U)
“Dr. Neo Cortex is still bent on world-domination. Whether you think of him as the ultimate evil mind or a power crazed lunatic – just don’t tell him when he’s sitting in his tank. His laser cannon task shots have twice the range of any other contestant. Don’t trust this guy as far as you can throw him! In fact, Uka Uka doesn’t really even trust this guy.”
*Manual (PAL)
“DR. NEO CORTEX – mad scientist”
*Prima strategy guide
"Ridiculed by the scientific community for his outlandish theories, Dr. N. Cortex tried to create an army of mutated animals to help him rule the planet. He's been thwarted at every turn by Crash, now he won't rest until bandicoots are extinct." 
===Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex===
*Bradygames strategy guide
"Aspiring Master of the Universe who has seen his plans (curses!) foiled again and again by Crash. Still like a bad rash; just when you think he’s taken care of, he keeps coming back. The only time you ever get to lay your marsupial mitts on the diminutive doctor is the final boss level, and even then, he’s all brains and no brawn."https://archive.org/details/crash-bandicoot-the-wrath-of-cortex-game-guide/page/n15/mode/2up
===Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure===
*Manual
"Crash's vertically-challenged nemesis. Crash has vanquished Cortex's plans of domination time and time again, and Cortex is fed up!"
===Crash Nitro Kart===
*Manual
“Crash’s archenemy intends to defeat Crash once and for all with his team of racing henchmen. Like Crash, he excels at acceleration.”
*Websitehttps://web.archive.org/web/20040518073923/http://www.vvisions.com/cnka/racers/index.cfm
"Crash's arch-nemesis intends to defeat Crash once and for all with his team of racing henchmen. Like Crash, he excels at acceleration." 
===Crash Bandicoot Purple: Ripto's Rampage===
*Manual
"The baddest of the bad. The worst of the worst. Cortex will stop at nothing to control the world — and get revenge upon Crash! But this time, he has found his most powerful ally yet."
===Spyro Orange: The Cortex Conspiracy===
*Manual
"The baddest of the bad. The worst of the worst. Cortex will stop at nothing to control the world — and get revenge upon Spyro! But this time, he has a little more help."
===Crash Twinsanity===
*Manual
“Dr. Neo Cortex is an evil scientist – the creator of Crash Bandicoot and also his sworn enemy, for Crash has ruined every one of Cortex’s wicked schemes. Now Cortex has to swallow his pride and work with that meddling marsupial, at least until the opportunity arises to turn things to his advantage. This is the worst day of his life…”
===Crash Boom Bang!=== 
*In-Game
"An evil mad scientist, Cortex is Crash's archenemy."
===Crash Village===
*In-game
"The world’s only doctor of evil podiatry. Cortex created Crash to be a soldier, but his plan backfired in the worst way. Crash has destroyed every one of Cortex’s evil schemes making Cortex evilier and crazier over the years. He is willing to deal with anyone or anything to defeat Crash. Cortex’s evil plans rarely make perfect sense, but they are always over the top and grandiose."https://web.archive.org/web/20081230131552/http://crashmania.net/?page=momnews
===Crash Nitro Kart 2===
*In-Game
“This evil genius has good acceleration, but lacks accuracy.”
===Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!===
* Promo
“The maniacal menace ever-present thorn in Crash’s side (although Cortex would say it’s the other way around), the ‘good’ doctor always has a plan to take over the multiverse. Pretty ambitious stuff for the youngest son of a family of travelling circus clowns – and there’s definitely nothing to laugh about when it comes to the evil genius of Neo Periwinkle Cortex.”
* In-game (Neo Cortex)
"A brilliant but disrespected scientist who creates super-intelligent animal minions with his gene mutating Evolvo-Ray. Due to his oversized ego, Cortex dreams of multiverse domination."
*In-game (Robo Cortex)
"Neo Cortex literally “reinvented himself” as a high-tech robotic replica capable of firing off explosive rockets, powerful lasers and punishing insults. This metal mimic is the real deal."
