Crash Bandicoot

[Thebananacrafter!]

I'd like to know how Rayman original name suppose to be like?Gordon Freeman had Ivan the Explorer,Jazz Jackrabbit had Wubbo Ockels and Crash Bandicoot had Willy Wombat.

This question isnt so relevant to crash since he is only mentioned

Crash 1 - 3 remastered for PS4, as well as Crash for Skylanders announced (oh dear)

[Bradandez]

Oh fuck

[Master]

I don't think OCG's going to be happy about this. I can't say I'm particularly miffed, but I find this to somewhat lacking. Hopefully it's just Sony & Activision testing the waters...hopefully.

[Sabertooth]

Are there any videos or anything?

[Master]

From what I've heard and seen, it's merely been confirmed by mouth, nothing shown.

[Dart]

here ya go!

[Rayfist]

They announced a remastering of 1-3, I want to get excited but I want to see what these "remasters" are like before getting excited too much.

[Bzzit]

At least the Skylanders model actually looks decent, unlike Spyro's godawful model

[Bradandez]

Hey, Skylanders Crash isn't too bad looking! He looks like he did in his original concept art!

And man, they're gonna remaster the original 3 games only for PS4? Damn... Now I don't know what PS system to get.

[Bzzit]

Apparently the remasters are "from the ground up" too, which has me very interested to see them in action.

[Rayfist]

Yes, so it is indeed a legitimate remake and not just a port of the ps1 games. If we get a simple port of the ps1 games with slightly better models/textures that will suck, I hope this is indeed a remake.

[RayCarrot]

They did say it's "from the ground up", so I'm assuming it's like the Ratchet & Clank reboot or something which would be awesome. The Skylanders thing looks better than I thought honestly. His design is a lot better than Spyro's and his gameplay seems like classic Crash gameplay actually. I was really hoping they'd show something of the new remaster though, like a trailer or at least like the logo or something.

[Reese Riverson]

An actual remake ought to be interesting, I wonder how this will turn out.

I've only played the first Crash game on the PS1 so far.

The R&C reboot redid the story and plots, this sounds more like taking the originals and using high quality assets instead, like that Conker remake. Part of me is a bit sceptical and just expects HD textures to be slapped on and be done with it. Though in honesty, given Crash's distinctive styling, I wouldn't be too fussed. If they do go round the complete redoing, I do hope they don't lose the aesthetic of the series in the process.

If it just turns out to be HD recoatings though, I hope they replace Crash's model in Crash 1 with the one used in Crash 2 & 3, it looked much nicer. And hopefully they'll be sure to retroactively add analog supprot.

[Bzzit]

Yeah, if they get Crash 1 to play like 2 and 3 then that would be awesome.

What makes you most skeptical about it? Something they've done in the past that disappointed you?

[Bradandez]

Damn, if these remasters are really gonna be full on remakes, I really don't know whether to get a PS4 or not.

Get both? Problem solved.

So the remaster are being developed by Vicarious Visions, the guys who developed Crash Nitro Kart, the Crash GBA games and of course...Skylanders.
