Wrong game.

!!''Destroy All Tropes!''
%%* TheSeventies:
* AccidentalMisnaming: Emperor Meningitis addresses Crypto as "Klepto".
--> '''Meningitis:''' Pox? Is that you? What have you done with your body? And what's that with you? Oh, it's your little house boy, ''Klepto!''\\
'''Crypto:''' CRYP-TO.
--> '''Meningitis:''' Whatever!
* AstralFinale: The final level is set on the Furon Homeworld. In this case, it doubles as a massive space-station.
* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: There are four giant enemies that try to kill Crypto. The Nexo Walker, who become a DegradedBoss after their first appearance. The Nexo Dragon, which is a gigantic mechanical Chinese alien dragon. The Nexo Squid, which is a gigantic alien squid that’s large enough to wrap itself around the Eiffel Tower. And [[spoiler: Emperor Meningitis’s robotic bust, a giant floating robotic head modeled after the Furon Emperor himself, and acts as his last line of defense against Crypto.]]
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Your primary enemies, the Nexos, serve as the police for for the Fourth Ring. Their weakest level is blue, their medium level is the regular green, and the toughest level is red.
* ComicallySmallBribe: The beginning has Pox heavily berating Crypto for becoming lazy in his new casino, enjoying the luxuries of human life for almost a decade instead of continuing his mission of gathering Furon DNA. Crypto offers him a 5% cut of the profits coming, making Pox instantly change the subject to how he found a mole from a rival casino trying to sabotage their money making scheme.
* CoolCar: Furon anti-gravity cars are a prominent feature on the Fourth Ring of Furon.
* CoolOldGuy: The Master, who happens to be an ancient Furon politician who fled the Furon homeworld to escape political injustice. He landed on Earth and took up practicing martial arts, ultimately developing a time-control Psychokinetic ability.
* CutsceneIncompetence: [[spoiler: So the Master is a martial arts expert and invented a psychic power to control time. He dies twice, one on purpose to his ex-apprentice Saxon. The second? Pox smacks him into a wall and turns him into paste.]]
* EiffelTowerEffect: Happens with Belleville (the Paris pastiche), where the Eiffel Tower serves as the centerpiece of the map.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: "They're not high, but I got em'!"
** When Crypto finds out The Master has died, he goes into mourning... [[spoiler:until it's discovered it was just a set-up]].
** While Crypto is always happy to slaughter humans, he is against attacking his own people. [[BrainUploading Until Pox gives him a quick reminder, anyway]].
* EvilOverlooker: Subverted/inverted. [[spoiler:The Master on the third game's box art would qualify.]]
* EvilPlan: [[spoiler:Everything was planned by the Master as a part of his plan to usurp the Furon throne and get Crypto to kill Emperor Meningitis.]]
* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:The Master in Path of the Furon once it is revealed he is TheChessmaster behind the entire plot]].
* {{Gangsterland}}: Invoked in Las Paradiso with the Italian mob enemies.
* GayParee: Belleville is effectively a satirized version of Paris.
* GratuitousDiscoSequence: Disco Fever replaces the Free Love ability.
* GroinAttack: The Nexo Walker's weakness, although they technically aren't testes...
* HollywoodCalifornia: The Sunnywood acts as the ThemeParkVersion of this.
* InsistentTerminology: The Master insists on pronouncing Shen Long by stretching out the "Long".
* InterspeciesRomance: Taken UpToEleven, where the entire Furon race has been gradually recloned with genitalia. The Furon men find human women more attractive.
* {{Irony}}: Crypto tortures a Creator/JackNicholson {{Expy}} for having a grating voice. Crypto's voice is a subtle Jack Nicholson impersonation.
* ItWillNeverCatchOn: Crypto pitches a series of video games to Pox, such as a game about [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros a plumber who defeats his enemies by jumping on them]], [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog a hedgehog that runs really fast]] and [[Franchise/{{Halo}} a space marine on a ring shaped planet]]. Pox considers them all to be stupid ideas.
* LeyLine: According to the "Lunarian Church of Alientology", they are "invisible rivers of mystical energy", and they want to build where the ley lines cross in order to use them to communicate interstellar distances with their minds.
* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:The Master. Crypto believes his enemy is Curt Calvin, supposedly another Furon DNA gatherer. Then, after meeting the Master, Crypto believes his enemy is really Saxon, who supposedly used Calvin to try and destroy Crypto. It then turns out that Saxon was under the employ of Francodyne CEO Henri Crousteau. It is then revealed that Saxon and Crousteau were both part of Emperor Meningitis's operation to manufacture Synthetic DNA. Then after killing Meningitis, the Master appears and reveals that he was the actual conspirator all along, using all of them, including Crypto, in order to usurp the Furon throne.]] Talk about complex and confusing!
* MarsNeedsWomen: Invoked when the majority of the Furons' male population gets genitalia for the first time.
* MechanicalLifeforms: Nexos, to a certain extent. They're identified as a machine race, like the Franchise/{{Transformers}} or [[VideoGame/MassEffect Geth]].
* MistakenIdentity: Pox says that he has a lead on the local crime boss of Shen Long, Saxon, and demands Crypto to head downtown and blow up a couple buildings and abduct well over a hundred humans to catch him. By the end of the mission, Pox admits that he mistook some random human for Saxon.
--> '''Pox:''' You know all humans look the same!
--> '''Crypto:''' [[SarcasmMode The all seeing all knowing Orthopox screws up again.]] I can't believe I actually take orders from you.
* MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: [[spoiler:The Master stages his death in order to win Crypto's trust and set his plan in full motion.]]
* {{Nerf}}: The Disintegrator Ray gets a major damage downgrade and fires considerably slower.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Minor human characters include [[Creator/GeorgeLucas Lucal]][[Creator/StevenSpielberg berg]], [[Music/SonnyBono Sammy]] and [[Music/{{Cher}} Faire]], [[Music/TheAllmanBrothersBand Legg Tallman]], and [[Creator/JohnTravolta Tony the]] [[Film/SaturdayNightFever Dance King]].
* NoFourthWall: By the third game, the fourth wall never even existed.
* ObviouslyEvil: Pox can tell right away that [[spoiler:The Master]] is evil, or that he at least shouldn't be trusted.
* OldMaster: The Master is the Furon equivalent, supernatural martial arts and all.
* ProperlyParanoid: General Armquist is seen as highly paranoid by those around him, something Crypto uses to sabotage his directive to bring the military branches together against the Furon threat.
* TakeThat: "Alientology" is a thinly veiled parody of Scientology.
* TornadoMove: Crypto's saucer the Tornadotron, a weapon that can be used to form and control a massive tornado that sweeps everything in its path into the sky while it's active. It can even be used while invisible for the illusion of a natural disaster wrecking the city. DoNotTouchTheFunnelCloud is in partial effect here, as cars and helicopters need to be somewhat close to the funnel be flung.
* UnrealisticBlackHole: The final handheld weapon unlocked in ''Path of the Furon'' in the Black Hole Gun, a device that develops a black hole in the area it's pointed at. When formed, all humans, vehicles and debris nearby will be pulled and absorbed into the hole, killing them instantly, and then releasing all of their brains into a pile before dissipating. It takes a while to charge up, can only be fired twice when fully upgraded before needing ammo, and leaves Crypto unable to do anything else while he forms the black hole, but it can clear a whole block's worth of enemies quickly.
* VenusIsWet: Pox claims that Venus used to be lush and sustained life before the Furon Empire turned into a "self-perpetuating inferno." While it is never clarified as to ''why'' they did that (though it can't be hard to guess with [[AxCrazy the Furons]]), the last remaining thing from this time in Venus' history are spore samples from a carnivorous plant species that would be used as ammo for the Venus Human Trap weapon.
* VivaLasVegas: Las Paradiso.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Veronica Stone. After getting her the story of sending the Neo Walker into the corrupt police station, she is neither seen or heard from again.
* YouKillItYouBoughtIt: Double example -- [[spoiler:The Master's plan is essentially regicide. After Crypto kills Meningitis, he gets Orthopox to kill the Master, who then decides to stick around as Furon Emperor.]]
