They ruined it after the first one for me (well Im not sure about the second one seeing as I had a choice between crash 2 and FFVII... a choice that would ultimatly end me here) They took away the jungle island feel and replaced it with hundreds of generic labs (although there were labs in the first one they were kept to the end and were fresh at that point) and under water segments. And Im not even going to mention how I feel about the series after travelers tales...
