Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Ensemble Darkhorse: Dingodile and N. Tropy, both because of their designs, the badassery of their Boss Battles and their quirky accents.
  • Game-Breaker: The Fruit Bazooka is this, since now you can aim away at the crates without personally going there, as well as hitting enemies from far away. Not so much for Time Trials though.
  • Good Bad Bugs:
    • It's possible to exploit a glitch involving the game's demo to start a new game with all upgrades without having to defeat any bosses beforehand, making the game much easier.
    • It's possible to keep Baby T to the end of "Dino Might!" (where normally he'll throw you off before getting to the middle of the stage) by repeatedly body-slamming onto it until he stops throwing you.
    • The "jump-spin" trick returns from the previous game, and this time, the power-ups Double Jump and Death Tornado Spin also helps the trick in reaching even further distances normally not possible.
    • Death-warping, extra boxes glitch and extra items/over 105% glitch from the previous game also reappear here.
  • That One Boss:
    • N. Gin can be this to some players. For one thing, it's an Unexpected Shmup Level, and the control is actually reversed from the regular shmup levels (i.e. tilting your joystick right will make Coco fire to the left). In the second phase, it gets worse because after getting used to the destructible missiles, he adds in projectiles that can't be destroyed.
    • Cortex unlike the last game. He wouldn't be too difficult on his own, but in addition to fighting him the player also has to avoid being killed by attacks thrown by Aku Aku and Uka Ukua's fight. Also unlike the rest of the game, the player doesn't get Aku Aku for the fight so they die in one hit.
  • That One Level:
    • "Tomb Wader", especially on Time Trial mode. Hint: rising water levels.
    • "Mad Bombers", an Unexpected Shmup Level where you have to destroy planes by using awkward targeting to snipe tiny engines on them while enemies nail you with deadly attacks.
  • That One Sidequest: Getting all of the gold or platinum relics which gets you a hidden gem.
