Found the Xbox owner

Yeah same i wish they did team racing also :smile: Online mode would be epic :smile:

Blasphemy... :wink:

People are getting excited over this, but that's only because people have forgotten that Crash Bandicoot isn't actually very good...

cnt wait for this

wow this gonna go cold from 9 to 1 :disappointed:

It's a remake as it turns out.

​will be very good indeed

People are getting excited over this, but that's only because people have forgotten that Crash Bandicoot isn't actually very good...

Blasphemy... :wink:

I'm hoping there'll be a Special Edition with Crash and Cortex. Not the same figures from Skylanders Imaginators but with the original designs.



Waiting for a price drop on the Skylanders Crash Bandicoot Pack and for a Solus copy of Imaginators (no way am I gonna pay full RRP for all that when I already own the portal and only want to play Crash's stage).

Oh my god i can't wait I've been wishing for this game on ps4 for so long and agree about crash team racing would be amazing I'm so excited haha !

Nope, I'm just not a fan of mediocre games being needlessly remastered. Hey, don't take my word for it- go ahead and buy the game for £35.
You'll soon be reminded that Crash is a very limited sub-standard side scroller with some really finicky 3D tunnel sections. Cap it off with the cardinal sin of having 3D sections where you run towards the screen, and you're golden.
if you really must play this again, buy the PS1 version from the PS store or just buy the original versions and a PS1 for less than the price of this remaster.

Oh, and Pandemonium was the better 2.5D platformer.

Good memories of a very playable game. Some haters were not probably even born when originally released. Apparently it's a remaster with a few tweeks, so should be worth the wait.

I'm kind of against remastered games being released on this gen, but also feel it depends on the game. Some older games benefit much more from a remaster than say, the games on the Batman collection, or even Skyrim. They were already pretty nice looking and controlled well enough.

Crash is definitely a remaster I'm looking forward to. Visually it looks amazing based on the PSX footage. A real significant upgrade! Crash is childhood gaming for me, so nostalgia alone will probably see me buy this :stuck_out_tongue:

​Seriously.. :confused:

Note that this is $40 in the US. I expect we'll see better UK prices closer to release.

pay up front or pay on despatch?

Should of tried to make it a little harder to spot :smile:

Check out just how much the originals go for on ebay. They're still in demand as they're still very playable today.

i remember Mum renting crash 3 for a week n got 110% in 3 days, Mum felt she wasted her fiver :laughing: great games

​No. He's right. Big Naughty Dog fan here and PS3/4 owner without an Xbox in sight and Crash games are just not brilliant imo. I think everyone excited about this played them when younger and are currently on the nostalgia train. I was 'Nintendo' all the way up until the Gamecube and remember thinking 'What's the big deal?!' when playing Crash around a friend's house at the time. Having bought the PS1 Classic of Crash for something light hearted to play on my PS3/Vita I can say it really hasn't aged well either. Very stiff control, unforgiving and not all that fun. Fingers crossed they've done something to the gameplay cause I fear this will be one many gamers pick up for the nostalgia, realise its not as good as they remember and put to one side to gather dust.

Brilliant next year there's just too many exclusives coming out on ps4. Also the new wipeout looks amazing can't wait

I played these again last year and I still think they're good today, with Crash 2 coming out on top IMO (CTR gives me the most nostalgia but it doesn't look like that'll be joining the pack...)

​Cheer up

That's why I have to buy ps4

Always an N64 guy myself so might sound biased but that recent trailer resembled a YouTube fan mockup like when someone recreates Ocarina of Time in Unreal Engine 4.

just to clarify, it's not a remaster it's being remade from the ground up. Brand new assets.

$40 in America. Think this will drop further in price, maybe a Ratchet &a Clank £30 job

​now that would be a dlc pack i would want to pay for

I really do wish these remasters would die already. It feels like the PS4 is turning into a greatest hits console from the PS1, PS2 and PS3. I bought my PS4 for new games not to replay games that weren't great in the first place. Rehashed remasters like Skyrim selling well while brilliant games like Titanfall 2 struggling just makes me annoyed. Just keep your old consoles if you love old games so much. I want gaming to advance not trying to relive the past.

Needlessly remastered? They'll be selling hundreds of thousands of copies, but okay.

I don't find Mario 64 that bad tbh. Although 3D platformers have evolved I don't feel like SM64 has aged badly.

Great price I've had this on pre order on Amazon since July I'm glad I now know a release date thanks

​sore losers. gaming is about getting back up trying again until you succeed. :smile:

Oh, I 'member this.

Any chance of it being released on Xbox? :stuck_out_tongue:

"Due for release on 03/03/2017"

no way its out that early

It's got nothing to do with the controls, music, graphics, or my gaming ability. It's to do with the overall "meh-ness" of the game. I never out and out said it was bad, I said it wasn't very good.
If you thought Crash was a good game, try a really good PS1 platformer like Klonoa- there's more love and imagination in the first level of that game than there is in the whole library of Crash Bandicoot games.

And really, don't compare Crash to Mario 64- one is a 2.5D side scrolling platformer with limited tunnel sections. Mario 64 is a full 3D platform game/playground that changed 3D gaming forever.

Please. Since when did the price of a game reflect it's quality? BTW, £25 complete in box is not expensive. Granted, it's pricier than the average PS1 game, but that's not exactly a bank-breaking sum. :smiley:
I mentioned Klonoa in my previous post- check out the EBay prices of that game if you want to see how much a beloved PS1 game goes for...

At the risk of generalising, I suspect there's a generational thing going on here. I can understand the nostalgia if the PS1 was someone's first console, but for me - someone who grew up on Nintendo and Sega - Crash Bandicoot barely registered.

And that's not because I'm anti-Sony in any way. Indeed, I owned a PS1, but anyone compiling a list of its greatest games would be hard pressed to justify including Crash Bandicoot anywhere near the top.

Shame that its $40 in the us and yet most places are doing it for £40 over here.

​Then buy the originals. I was pointing out an inaccuracy. And as someone who was gaming long before the PSX the fuzzy graphics were not the reason for the games appeal, they were fun. They still are.

Are you 12? Who even plays platformers anymore? Its 2016 not the 90s. Some of you people are stuck living in the past and your dragging everyone else who wants new games down with you. If the games are so good then go on ebay and buy a PS1 system with the games and you can stay in nostalgia goggles land for as long as you want.

Croc and Gex were both better platformers anyway.

How the hell is this so hot? This game will crash in value :wink:

​shut up you idiot!!! the original on ps1 sells between £20/30 depending on condition so good look with that. knob!

Reading this thread makes me want to buy this purely out of spite :laughing:

Come on dude you're the one acting like you're 12. Tons of people loved the Crash games and still do. It's going to sell because lots of people want to play them again. This is only being made because Ratchet and Clank (an action platformer and a ps2 remake...) did so well and is up there as one of the best games of the generation.

Trash talking people for being excited about something is not the sign of a grown man or woman.

can't wait for this, this and spryro was my childhood haha

Would you be happy if this was being remade with guns and online PvP?

Yes.

Price is back up to £43.99...
