Dingodile started showing up quite a bit, and Tropy actually took Cortex's place for [[VideoGame/CrashBandicoot2NTranced one game]]. Sadly, with the Radical Entertainment games, both developed a case of ChuckCunninghamSyndrome (Dingodile did appear as a boss in the portable versions of ''Crash Of The Titans'', while N.

** Over time, this has developed towards the vehicle levels, particularly because they take up almost half the level count. Detractors find them unnecessary and intrusive for taking time away from the main platforming gameplay, with a few even considering ''Warped'' to be the weakest of the original trilogy on account of their prevalence. Supporters find them to be well-made diversions from the core platforming gameplay, allowing the game to stand out from its predecessors and offer something new instead of being a mere polishing of the previous games.
