Line 56:
** A fair few of ''Wrath Of Cortex's'' vehicles gain similar critism, particularly the mech. Clunky, hard to manuever and easy to get hit as, it likely would have been easier and more fun to play the majority of the game as Crash himself.
* [[Shipping]]: Crash/Pasadena. [[Ensemble Darkhorse|It does seem to make a large part of the character's fanbase]].
* [[That One Boss]]: (Wa-Wa the Water Elemental in ''Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex'', Doctor Nefarious Tropy in ''Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced'', Doctor Neo Cortex in ''Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped'', Madame Amberly in ''Crash Twinsanity'', Uka Uka in ''Crash of the Titans''.)
** No, not Madame Amberly. That One Boss for ''Crash Twinsanity'' would be Dingodile. God knows I've seen enough complaints about it...
** All the bosses from the [[Nintendo Hard|first game]] may count, but [[Best Boss Ever|when you understand when it works...]] Ripper Roo may be the only exception. [[Sequel Difficulty Spike|gets better in the sequel though]].
Line 70:
*** ''Crash Nitro Kart'' has Clockwork Wumpa and Hyper Spaceway, with an honorable mention to Thunder Struck.
*** ''Crash Tag Team Racing'' has Rings of Uranus, Uranus Mines... in fact, all of Astro Land is irritating. Particularly Rings of Uranus, where the time trial crystal almost requires tool-assist.
* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]: (The general opinion of the Crash games after ''Crash Team Racing'', although the newer games are gradually getting better reviews.)
* [[They Copied It, So It Sucks]]:
* [[They Copied It, So It Sucks]] (''Crash Bash'' and ''Crash Boom Bang!'' are considered to be bad ''Mario Party'' clones by many. Also, ''Crash Nitro Kart'' and ''Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex'' are often seen as watered-down [[PlayStation]] 2 versions of ''Crash Team Racing'' and ''Crash Bandicoot: Warped'' respectively.)
** ''Crash Bash'' and ''Crash Boom Bang!'' are considered to be bad ''Mario Party'' clones by many.
** ''Crash Nitro Kart'' and ''Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex'' are often seen as watered-down [[PlayStation]] 2 versions of ''Crash Team Racing'' and ''Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped'' respectively. Ironic for ''The Wrath Ofof Cortex'', which [[What Could Have Been|was originally to be a more innovative free roaming platformer]] before remaking it in fear of the changes not recieving well.
* [[They Just Didn't Care]]: The plot of ''Crash Tag Team Racing'' is very much this. Aside from making little sense by itself, the plotline has practically nothing to do with ''Crash'' aside from having several returning characters in it . The plot also ignores some things previously established in the series by having several [[Talking Animal]] characters running around for no reason whereas all the animal characters in the series are supposed to have been experimented upon and mutated by Cortex and other scientists. Oddly, the game seems to inspire less [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]] complaints than Radical's later games, ''Crash of the Titans'' and ''Crash: Mind over Mutant'', which are in every way much more faithful to the series.
** This is arguably owed to the Radical games following a [[Rule of Funny]] depiction much more than the earlier titles. ''Titans'' is slightly more story-centric though ''Mind Over Mutant'' takes the random comedy [[Up to Eleven]]. All three games have met critism for such changes however, especially concerning the redesigns of the cast.
