>>341196954
Got to first bring Crash back to the ignorant masses that now flood the gaming market before you can fix what has been broken.
And as much as we on /v/ despise skylanders, children fucking love it for some odd god damn reason.
If that wasn't a pristine example of a swift kick to the balls, I don't know what is. I don't think I've ever seen an audience have their hopes raised and dashed so quickly.
>>341198309
Why are Crash and Spyro fans so stupid?
I hate you, Activision.
>>341198212
Oh shut the fuck up you insipid faggot. No one wanted LEL REMASTER. Its the fucking ReMASTERSTATION 4. We wanted original games in the same vein as past ones, just bigger and better. You fucks just dont ubdsrstand shit abou what the consumers want. Then we get grade a retards like yourselves going W WELL THEY ARE GIVING YOU THE OLD GAMES! When what everyone wanted is NEW GAMES that are LIKE the old games!
No one wants OoTHD or MMHD, the game has bwwn out for fucking ever! We want Zelda U to have gripping scenarios, characters that are lively, and storytelling with before during and after effects! Holy fucking hell
>>341198212
I would have been perfectly fine with a new ghost busters without Harold Ramis. They could have built the story around it and how the Ghost busters are now all washed up. But instead be get hipster chicks land whales and Ebonics spouting jigaboos instead.
>>341198664
You think Crasha nd spyro would sell at all anymore you are delusional.
Spyro has a bigger fanbase in children because of fucking skylanders. I fucking hate the games and it's dumbass toys but if you want the current main demographic to get interested in Crash again you need to feed it to the dumb fucking children that eat this skylanders shit up.

Honestly this is best possible outcome. I don't know why people are so mad about it.
Crash 1 especially could really use a remake.
>>341199092
Actually as stuff like the cartoons and comics have shown, it is possible to do a good GB reboot if done right. Too bad that piece of shit coming this summer fails on every single level.

>>341200082
Yes.

Gripping, at its own level.
As opposed to modern games which have 0 grip.
>>341200082
nope im hyped
they are remastering the best crash games we will ever getand the skylander figure looks great
Didn't they say there were going to rebuild Crash 1-3 from the ground up? That isn't exactly an HD upscale.
Oh yay, i can play that very same game again, the one i completed over 400 times in the past 20 years.
>Some people in /v/ would rather play the same game for years than try something new
>Muh gems
Fucking hell
>>341200082
Ditto. Psyched as fuck to play one of my favorite game franchises again in HD with hopefully some extras.
I'm probably going to buy multiple copies of it and the Crash Skylander just to troll all these idiots.
>the crowd's instant silence when they announced it was some skylanders shit
They're gauging the public interest in the IP.
If the Skylanders gig does well
If the Remasters sell well
They will make another Crash game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7rEAEnWwkw
I guess He's gonna have to make his own.
>>341200082
I'm surprised at how accurate Skylander's Crash design is, I hope they change Spyro too.
I love how they cut to the Skylanders trailer so fast.
>>341200820
What is there to gauge? Nah, they're just cashing in on the remaster trend, and a perfect time too to make the reveal.
I'll still take it over nothing.
>placing your faith in man
>>341200820
Would rather not since Naughty Dog won't be involved and we'd have to settle for a shitty 3rd rate developer to poorly ape them.
>>341199092
>Spyro has a bigger fanbase in children because of fucking skylanders.
I don't even think Skylanders kids know who Spyro is. His name only appeared in the subtitle of the first game and I don't even think they've remade his figure since the 3rd game.
Hey remember the last dead IP retards wanted to bring back from the dead regardless of quality?
Ratchet and Clank 2016 was called a remaster and it turned out to be a full remake
I expect that from these too. Since the trend of "remasters" started last gen, there hasn't been A SINGLE FUCKING PS1 GAME that's been "remastered" as in had the textures sharpened up and upscaled.
They're going to be full remakes, no doubt about it.

Honestly I really don't want modern Naughty Dog to make Crash anyway. That whole "we've moved on to more mature things" shit is a BAD sign.
>>341201785
The figure will be sold separately, and I bet you the crash figure will say it belongs to Activision
>>341201859
Then what's the whole point of bringing him back?
>>341196954
I'll probably still buy it but dammit mane ;_;
>>341196954
I'm watching the footage right now and you are lying out of your little childish ass about the crowd's reaction. They were glad to hear Sony announce Crash Bandicoot remasters for the first three Crash Bandicoot games exclusively for the Playstation 4.
Just shut the fuck up already you revisionist asshole.
>>341202736
Not even man I was there when people were slitting their wrists
>>341202170
To make money. Ratchet and Clank did surprisingly well. People are very willing to buy older games when they've been remastered or remade or repolished or whatever fucking adjective you prefer to use.

So many things they could have done with this character...

>"g-g-g-g-g-guys pls listen to me and believe!!!!!"
Now you're claiming the Sony E3 2016 Conference's audience was performing self-mutilation with no evidence other than supposed anecdote. I get it that you hate Sony's guts for petty reasons, that doesn't mean you get to spew lies out the ass and present them as facts.
>>341203569
It was probably the only way to license the ports for 1-3. Either way it doesn't affect me if there's no PC release.
>>341203734
This must be your first conference if seeing people in the crowds killing themselves is a shock to you
>>341201663
that is one ugly megaman
People were all excited when the music appeared and the guy mentioned Crash but, as soon as he mentioned they'd just be remasters and Skylander, it killed the moment.
>>341203734
How much do you get paid and where can i sign up for hire?
Honestly would rather have a remaster than a shitty attempt at a new game. Skylanders trailer could seriously fuck off though.
>>341200082
The first game hasn't aged too well ( and some sections in the others) so it will be interesting to see if they refine them.
They make skylanders game first so they cash with kids, and later they release the HD remaster so those same kids who didn't know about crash can now play the games on their first console.
Are you neckbeards really this clueless? Go play commondore 64 or something, because sony and microsoft want some new blood.
Remasters adds new content.
Enchanced/HD editions add nothing.
This remaster is said to be testing the waters and introducing crash IP to the younger audience.
IM still hoping a crash announcement for december , january.
>>341199092
I'm pretty sure Spyro isn't even relevant in Skylanders, like the kids playing the games probably don't even know his name at this point too
And yet his legacy with Skylanders is just enough to ensure Spyro can never rise again
>>341198845
I did want a remastered version though. Just like I wanted a remastered version of FFVII, Sly, Jak and Daxter, and Ratchet and Clank.
Now they need to remaster Legend of Dragoon and Chrono Cross and I will be happy.

He's back
I will wait for ingame shots
Crash 1-3 are fairly short platformers, redoing them in PS4 graphics won't take that much effort or time. I feel like there is no way you just remaster a PS1 game and put it out like that
>>341201230
This year was God of War
Crash will be next year.
>>341202056
The Crash info says it's manufactured and shipped under license by Sony Computer Entertainment.
The only other Skylanders that have this type of label are Bowser and DK, only theirs says Nintendo Co. Ltd.
>>341207428
>He's so Sony property he's going to be on Xbox and Wii U
Keep dreaming and stay mad, Sonnyger.

>>341208297

>>341198212
the ghostbusters game exist and
>Next you'll all be crying for a new Ghostbusters movie despite Harold Ramis being dead
could have been good
>>341196954
>>341198845
You do understand that they're making the remasters, because it's cheaper to test the waters this way and see if the old and new consumers still want to play Crash? And if these become a success - they'll give you new Crash titles?
I mean, holy shit, people - sometimes it's like no one on /v/ understands that making games is a business and requires some strategy to make money.
>>341198212
I'm with >>341198845 on this.
Doom 4 and the new Killer Instinct are good examples of going back to the basics while still adding new elements of play to keep things interesting.
Remasters are nice, especially for games that are hard to come by, but sequels or reboots that take inspiration from the predecessors while still being able to stand on their own well are much more appreciated.
>>341205912
This. It's the best route Sony should be taking with Crash if any at all. If the remasters work out well then they can see about making a new game entirely.
>>341198212
I'm actually happy we got remasters, I just wish we'd also gotten something else that wasn't Skylanders.
>>341207820
Well the Nintendo ones double as amiibo so I'm sure they did have a hand in developing them.
Makes you wonder if Sony will jump into the toys to life market or if this was a one time thing with Acitivison.
whatever bitching comes from the remasters will be nothing compared to if they had rebooted it and changed a whole bunch of shit. This is the right choice
>>341210696
yes its the logic choice but it takes time.
>>341196954
Remastered isn't even the proper word for this. It's a "from the ground up" remake for 3 games.
That's fucking awesome, especially with Activision allowing it to happen. This can mean a full Spyro HD remake trilogy later on. This is a complete step in the right direction. Even better than just Crash getting saved.

They had one job, and they choose to waste it by remastering something that needed a sequel. They won't learn their mistakes despite the cheers it's had when they announced crash was back.
I don't know, I think this is good, I mean I don't trust Naughty Dog or Activision to make a good Crash game with modern gaming conventions.
At least this will be familiar, or should anyway.
>>341200506
I thought they said "fully remastered", which could honestly mean anything.
Upscaling to 1080p and maybe using uncompressed source files for textures and music (if they even exist) would be the most likely.
I doubt we'll get 60fps, IIRC a whole bunch of game logic is tied directly to framerate, and changing that would be a lot of work and probably result in fuckups. I don't even know if 16:9 resolution would be doable, the games were built to only ever be seen from certain camera angles, so you might end up looking into the void, plus if an object wasn't in the camera view set for a location of the level, it didn't exist, if you jumped out of the screen to get a gem early it wouldn't work because the game didn't load anything except what was being shown right now.
A full remake with all new assets is another possibility, but I'd be scared of what they would do to the art style and gameplay changes they would make. If it was like Halo 1&2 remastered where you can switch back and forth by pressing a button, that'd be really cool.
>>341211885
the real ghostbusters was a good show. What i mean if i would be okay with an all-female movie if
>the women in it would actually funny

>>341198845
>Implying any modern studio is capable of doing neo-Crash with any justice
You're lucky you're even getting a fucking remake
I'm still fairly hyped.
If anything, maybe it'll create enough groundswell if it sells well enough and probably justify proper sequel.
I really don't see this as being that bad.
>>341212462
They are making the whole thing from the ground up, exact story and maps just a graphical upgrade. What bothers me is that Shawn wasn't as enthusiastic which makes me believe that something is going up in the background of this.
>>341201663
Yeah, it was called Battle Network and they turned Megaman into a fucking pokemon.
>>341200082
I am too. I didn't have too high of standards like everyone had I guess. I don't know how they could make a new game with all the others that they have made. I just hope Spyro gets the same treatment. I don't want a new Spyro game, just remasters of the first three. Don't fix it if it isn't broken.
>>341207869
Do you know how to read? This pic >>341207820

>>341200082
To be honest this Crash design is the best we've had since the originals. It's a shame there's no new actual Crash game in the works.
>>341198309
That isn't really the problem. It isn't that they're remastering them. It's really how quickly they created massive hype then deflated it all in the span of less than 2 minutes.
They made the stage all decked out in crash imagery, played crash music, had a little cartoon crash follow the dude out on the stage. They they announce it's not a new game and just a remaster, and proceed to not show any gameplay or images from the remastered games and instead show footage of crash in skylanders, something literally no one asked for. And they just completely dropped the subject right after the skylanders footage and moved onto lego starwars.
>>341213669
Twinsanity would like a word with you.
I laughed pretty hard when the crowd reaction died down a bit when he said remastered. People are obviously getting sick of them. It's all we've had this gen. Also

You faggots do realize "From the ground up" Means remake , it will be like Ratchet and Clank PS4 , PS4 graphics , updated story , similar environments , essentially it will be a new game but with environment and story similarities to the original 3 , no-one proudly announces a HD collection of PSOne games , We're getting a re-imagining , plus if this is just a remaster it's the fanbases fault for begging for a remaster instead of a remake.

I never played Crash games much as a kid, just five or ten minutes at friends houses when I was young. So I don't really have much nostalgia for him or got too attached

Comparing Megaman Legends to Xover and 9 is being fucking stupid.
Legends was a pretty good game.
It wasn't the best Megaman, but it was playable and fun; that's two things it has over Xover and 9.
what's wrong with this design again?
looks 100x better than that tattoo shit we had for ages
I've seen a lot of people complain abou his design but I can't really see what's so wrong about it to instantly hate it.
He looks a little rounder because it has more polygons and his jaw is a little bigger but aside from that he looks fine. At least he looks a lot better than tattoo crash and the monstruosity that is Spyro.

If it's literally just the original games released but with "polished graphics", fuck off.
