It's 3 remastered games for just over £10 each. That doesn't sound bad to me.

remasters are getting out of hand! don't mind them doing it but should never be able to charge this kind of price for them!

I'm just desperately hoping for a Crash Team Racing remaster as DLC!

30th June for release if anyone wondered

Thanks, will try this too...can always cancel if they refuse.

I already had it preordered prior to this, so I went to 'contact us' and chose email, selected my order and just asked, got a reply saying it had been changed

Looking forward to playing the second without those load times!

Price Promise
Base.com continuously monitors other suppliers' websites and may modify prices accordingly to ensure we remain competitive. As a result, by the time your pre-order of a forthcoming release or your back-order of an out of stock title is dispatched, we may have changed the price on our site. Our Price Promise means that when your order is ready for dispatch, we compare the current price of the title against the price we quoted at the time of your order, and we only charge you the lower of the two.

These don't actually release till end of June (30/06/2017). Probably going to be cheaper by then anyway right?

yep best to buy at £20 max if you realy want it imo, i think gow 3 remastered's £6 for plus members at the moment which is a good deal :sunglasses:

Hopefully the success of this will will trigger a 4th gen sequel.

There's a video trailer of the game on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q89zBXBKKks

You'd struggle to get the original PS1 games for under £30 EACH prior to this game being announced. This is a good deal!

there's a reason why the original copies are expensive, the 1st game is 21 years old

it's rare and there aren't many copies available, the PS4 version will be widely available and is... a PS4 game, kind of

this is a great game and i enjoyed it at the time but it's still a PS1 game bundle that's over priced
£20 would be a realistic and fair price, if you want to throw money at it, that's up to you

I tried on live chat but as expected they wouldn't do it directly, not surprised as IME Amazon generally won't price match, though do have very good customer service in other ways. they did take the link for the base price and promised they will review it and consider altering their price to match and reminded me of their pre-order price guarantee (you get cheapest price between time of order and dispatch) but ultimately wouldn't commit to price reduction.

Would too be interested to know what email address you used? (or did you just press the email instead of live chat or phone button?) Hopefully, if enough of us bug them about it they might just match the base price making it even cheaper as Amazon have the £2 off pre-orders deal and a fair number probably have amazon credit/gift cards too.....

Got to love a bit of Crash (First 3 obviously)

Try to buy all three of the originals for £30. . . .

Hopefully Yooka-laylee will be the throwback platforming game we have been waiting for. I don't think Crash is going to hold up very well. Even Mario 64 has aged poorly.

I've been playing the original on PS2!

Not too long after the ps2 console came out i think naughty dog stopped making the games and sold the IP to another company. They started to decrease in quality quite a bit after that.

Ordered! Heattttt :smiley:

Abit gutted now Thought this was coming out in two weeks!! Told my wife as she is the one who wanted it!! Opps I was winding her up about it coming out in October now it might have well be!!

How did you do this? What email address etc.?

Did you buy it and then email to say you'd found a cheaper price, or just ask them straight up for a price match?

Seconded, the 3D platformer seems to have lost it's way in recent years. While I personally think platformers are naturally better suited to 2D, a good 3D one can be a lot of fun, and the into the screen gameplay of crash meant the actual act of playing it was closer to a 2D platformer anyway.

Don't know why the crash series seemed to lose it's way so badly after PS1 but I'd love to see a new game that stays true to the style of the original trilogy.

As to this deal, hot, obviously, though at this rate we might just see sub £30 prior to release. Just wish some of the other retailers like Amazon, Tesco Direct or Coolshop would think about matching this as I have credit with those but none with base....

couldn't agree more!

Okay, that's better!

The playstation has nearly everything other than decent platformers which they used to have with the likes of crash and spyro back in the ps1 era. Honestly I hope they make a new crash game if this sells well enough.

Plus Uncharted 4, Last of Us Part 2, Ratchet and Clank plus Days Gone. Would probably get inFamous 2 as well. I only bought a PS3 to play exclusives.

I was gonna say that! its was amazing.

I'm not trolling here (OK, my previous comment was a bit salty) and I own a PS4 also. But really? THIS is your system seller?

Looks like I've got to buy a PS4 now.

"The Switch is too expensive, can't believe those Nintendo fanboys would pay that!"

"£30 for some remasters of a (bad) PS1 series? Shut up and take my money!"

...waiting for the God Hand remake (one can only hope)

I'm going to get it on download

You wait until you play this and realise how crappy it is. Our nostalgia is kind to us. How many games I've thought were awesome and then go to play then again and you realise how far we've come. This will be a waste of £30, just wait and pick it up when it's going for a fiver everywhere

This game was the reason i bought a PS1......

If anyone has pre ordered on amazon with prime, I emailed them this morning and they price matched and still got the £2 off so my order is now £28.85

Remasters/ remakes are too common for my liking. My first console was NES and playing Super Mario (a month before Xmas cos Dad agreed we should 'test it' before packing it back away) blew my tiny little mind but no matter how good any remake may be, that moment could never be relived. I would not buy a remake of a game I used to love. For any game(s) I missed first time around, ok chance to play it now but none so far have caught my interest. My taste has changed toward gaming experiences I have not had before. However for the new generation of gamers, yes, wow, this may be their NES Super Mario experience and I would not want to take that away from anyone. Not for the world. So, (another) one for the new gen' gamers I say.

It really does. There are times where you can't tell between the transition from CG cutscene to gameplay.

Surely, original comment was sarcasm?

Well then, welcome and enjoy your stay. Countless hours of quality gaming await!

I've just finished building myself a decent PC, going to sign upto Origins free trial to try out some games :smiley:

Unless you already own a PC it's not hard to find great games to play on ps4.

Finally, a game WORTH playing on the PS4, I think I now have a reason to buy the console :smiley:

I wouldn't be surprised if this was native 4k (or close to) on the pro.

It's clearly a remake. It uses none of the assets from the PS1 games. It's been rebuilt from the ground up, so how on earth can you call it a remaster? The devs are just trying to make it clear that the new game plays in exactly the same way as the originals.

32.99 to prime customers. Not cheaper but £2 more for an infinitely better company to buy from. Heat anyway :smiley:

it is already less than $40 about £32 and can only think the price will drop.

Talking of south park! It looks like that games been delayed again so disappointing!

They've announced this is $40. Expect this price to be the norm for this game in all retailers.

Crash in 4K but in June Nooooo

That would be great :smiley:

I'd pay whatever they want for this, love the crash games.

Well you didn't have to scroll far then :smile:

It would benefit due to the upscaling.

Thanks, I was scrolling down the comments hoping someone would of asked this.

Crash Team Racing needs to be remastered.

I remember playing the sublime Super Mario 64 and then getting Crash on the ps1 was such a let down, maybe I should have realised the only thing that could compete with a that was another Mario game.

Really wish they had invested the time and expense to make a proper new Crash game, Crash badly needs to be introduced to 2017 gameplay mechanics, camera & controls and level design.

Remaster everyone actually wants is the great Crash Team Racing, that could actually compete with the Mario Kart franchise, remake that bring it out at a sensible £14.99 then they could make some coin bringing out a few tracks packs ala MK8.

i like this but £30 for a remastered PS1 game? :confused:

Guys it's not a remaster. I hate that the developers keep underselling their game. A remaster takes the original game and makes graphical adjustments and other tweaks like increasing resolution.

This is a reMAKE. If you've seen any gameplay or screenshots you'll see that they clearly didn't reuse ps1 assets and everything looks built from the ground.

Just buy Uncharted 4 :smiley:

Thanks, just pre ordered.

Me 2

Decent price but I get the feel this will be the general price on release. Also DO NOT TOUCH BASE.COM they are by far the worst game retailer, delayed deliveries and abysmal customer service

Lol at everyone calling this a remake when the Devs said it's a remaster and not a remake

One of my earliest gaming memories is playing the original Crash Bandicoot game on the Playstation, definitely purchasing this when it comes out.

Thankfully it's not out 'til June. Got several games coming out in March I want to get (Horizon: Zero Dawn, Mass Effect), will probably have them cleared by the time June comes around...

£30.85 includes FREE UK Postage (other delivery options available)
RRP: £39.99. You Save: £9.14

Now down to £30.85.

Personally I wouldn't care if the games were released in the stone age. If they are remaking 3 awesome games it doesn't matter when they were originally released. If anything its better when they remake games that are that old as it better justifies it. When they rerelease recent games I understand when people complain about it but it makes more sense for older games.

I understand not a total remake, but could easily appear so per graphics upgrade. Plenty of gameplay videos if search.

I'm hoping they'll announce a Collector's Edition of this, I really want a Crash statue

remasters are getting out of hand! don't mind them doing it but should never be able to charge this kind of price for them!

Dosnt really look like a remake , and the only information I can find states that the ps1 code was nearly unusable not that it wasn't used ,but they are pretty vague . There is no need to be insulting , I stated that I was going to buy the game and am a massive crash fan but I really wanted a full remake and that isn't what Sony or the company making this have claimed it too be which is a bit strange if it is a remake

uh

https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2017/02/16/crash-bandicoot-n-sane-trilogy-releases-30th-june/

The originals were great but £30 to preorder... crazy. The price on this will drop harder than your mothers underwear when it is released op

I can't wait that long! :disappointed:

LOL this game is a remake. It's been rebuilt from ground up. Check your facts before spewing nonsense.

Well its is kind of a remake since they didn't reuse the ps1 stuff and make it look prettier. They rebuilt the game from scratch. The screenshots of the game look really good so far.

Nah that was a placement holder thing. They just announced the release date today and its is the 30th June like nathan stated.

Thank you!

The ratchet and clank game is a remake not a remaster .
Wish they had done that for crash as there isn't a huge amount of point in remastering as it will still look very dated (still going to buy it tho to play with my son)

30th June for release if anyone wondered

where is ps4 exclusive icon ?

Do base take money now ?

You'd be surprised, the Ratchet & Clank remaster is meant to look stunning in 4K and HDR

good find op, heat added

Reason to buy PS4 pro?!
