I'm home and recording a video of the credits now. Should be up soon. I'll also record the credits after I finish the game, in the scenario that there's any differences.

Cool deal. Should settle things pretty empirically.

Here's the link to the credits:

Word of warning. It's the credits. So I expect some spoilers in there maybe, if you consider that sorta thing spoilers. Not really sure as I didn't pay much attention to the casting bits and parts.

I'm glad this stuff only recently started to pile on. With E3 just a bit over a month away, it makes the wait more tolerable.
Welcome home, Crash. Welcome home.

Just finished the video and looked very closely and they are nowhere to be found. I will be on the edge of my seat this E3.
Me and my friends are recording our reactions to Sony's conference for our podcast and we're all huge Crash fans. There will be screams if there is a reveal.

I expect at least one trash can fire of hype
Someone from Sony and Naughty Dog have to be following this thread, if something is in the pipeline for Crash and in the timeframe left to whenever the planned reveal is, if the above is possible then make it so...
Given that Uncharted will be the biggest seller this year for them, Nathan Drake revealing a new Crash game could be a easy marketing boom!

They should probably just have Evan Wells introduce it.

Here are my expectations.
Sony does have Crash back.
It's announced at E3.
But it's not Naughty Dog developing it; it'll most likely be RAD or Sanzaru Games, since we haven't heard a peep out of them since their respective games wrapped. Although crazier things have happened, my best case scenario is a small team collaboration from Naughty Dog with another dev, since the majority of ND will be on TLoU2 Pre-production and the UC4 DLC.

To be fair, that Crash kind of looks like a fucking nightmare. He'll definitely be getting altered a little, but at least I doubt he'll have a tattoo or chest fur or whatever.
It's the other characters I hope they maintain the look of. Including Cortex's "is it a big hat or does he have a huge head" situation. And ESPECIALLY N.Gin.

No Brendan O'Brien credit for the Crash title screen yelp. How dare they
You would think they would at least put that much in.
Wouldnt be the first time ND put someones work in their game and didnt give credit.
Maybe they didnt put anything Crash related in the credits for whatever reason. At least we will find out whats up next week... probably
I'm curious as to whether they'll go with the classic Aku Aku and Uka Uka designs or use something different.

I thought Crash Twinsanity's Crash design was pretty faithful to the original. Shame the character itself was kinda weird.
Hot Coldman

Oh they need to stick to the classic look. I loved that they were just flat pieces of wood with decorations.
Do you mean the middle one? If you do, then I like it but it needs to be a bit more orange.
Hot Coldman

Some kind of mix of the middle and the left would do. Keep welllll away from the right design.
McMoneyman

Twinsanity's Crash.
wrestleman

All that picture does for me is show me how really not that different the two designs were to begin with. Not to mention Crash doesn't really look anything like that one on the far left in any of the games anyways.
DriftingSpirit

Yeah, middle and left. Erase the right from my memory.

crash's design doesn't matter, all you're gonna see is his ass anyway
anything is better than post twinsanity crash anyway; awful crash designs

Would they even have to credit Activision? Sony was the publisher of the original Crash Bandicoot which is what they show.
And even if it wasn't, Activision didn't actually contribute anything other than (presumably) saying it's cool. Surely they have to actually do something to be accredited.

Also worth noting that game was originally slated for a Fall 2015 release, but it was delayed to this year so Sanzaru could give it needed polish it (at least that's what Sega's PR says). Sanzaru also just released that Tron run/r endless runner digital game a few months ago too.
The first Crash appearing in UC4 would be one thing by itself, but the posted Stanley's AV Club interview, said first Crash game being noticeably modified/recreated from the original release, and no Activision licensing copyright appearing in UC4's credits (let alone any mention of Activision in the game at all)?...
Activision still owns the IP outright. Naughty Dog had to credit Activision for the Crash art they put in their art book.

According to that credits screen, Drake uses a freaking Zippo lighter and they have to credit Zippo for that. If Activision owned Crash still, there's literally no way the words "Crash Bandicoot" would leave Nate's lips.

First off, the thing you play in Uncharted 4, based on video evidence, is a complete remake. That immediately disqualifies it as "Crash 1". Whether it uses the same scenery models or not, it's completely remade from the ground up.
Secondly, Sony has a publishing contract for Crash 1,2,3,TR, and Bash. They publish those games. They do not own rights to them. That is why even though they hold that contract, and Naughty Dog developed the first four and created all the art, they needed to list Activision as the owner of Crash in Naughty Dog's art-book.
And third, It's Activision's PROPERTY. Whether they say it's cool or not, Sony would be required to list Activision's ownership of it in the credits.
Thank you wrestleman. We'd be lost without you haha
