In Crash Bandicoot, Cortex uses his gun in his battle with Crash at the end shooting pink, blue and green bubbles that apparently hurt Crash. Cortex again uses it with a similar attack on his battle at the end of Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped this time only shooting red bubbles. In Crash Bash Cortex uses his trusty blaster as his "kick" move but can also use it to pick up crates and throw it a great distance in the Crate Crush minigames. His former colleague N. Brio also uses a blue ray gun.
