Crash Bandicoot No Longer Loads

I downloaded Crash Bandicoot from my iPhone about a week ago (great game!) Last night I synced my iPhone with iTunes. Today I went to play the game but it won't load. It is the only app that won't load. When I tap on the icon, the gray status bar (with the time, battery, etc) appears at the top for about 2 seconds but then it just goes back to the home screen.

I will try resyncing when I get home.

Any suggestions in the mean time?

It turns out it wasn't just Crash that wouldn't launch. All my app store apps crashed after a while.

I'm not sure if this is what fixed it, because I've rebooted before, but I restarted my iPhone and then immediately synced it with iTunes before I tried launching any apps.

After doing that, my apps worked just fine.

I also restored my iPhone so it has the latest firmware (5A347) for good measure (but jeez it takes forever to reload 15GB content on the phone...).

what i've found is that my apps stop working after i sync with itunes.

so what i've also found is that if i delete and reinstall one of my applications, then all but one or two stubborn applications immediately start to work.

i then restart my iphone and all of my apps begin working again.

if you're planning on syncing your calendars or contacts on a regular basis, that's probably going to get old quickly, but its the solution that i've found and it's far better than restoring it every day.

How can you tell what firmware version of 2.0 you have?

I am having the same problem. So far a restart and a restore have both failed to fix the issue. Any other ideas anyone?
