Embargo for spoilers drops in 15min, big sites and channels will start talking about this
I think you're seriously overestimating what will actually happen.
Just because the embargo ends, doesn't mean everyone will report on the Easter egg.

Here's a little snippet of what the second version of the Boulder level looks like:

Nothing's changed. Just placement of crates.
I put a few direct comparison shots up yesterday. It's pretty different actually (and plays a lot worse...)

Sorry for slow reply.
Fairly substantial backstory/context spoiler (up to about 2/3 through the game) and a spoiler for a really good, if subtle non-Uncharted-or-Naughty-Dog-related easter-egg which most people probably will have no clue about:
You know the Founders of Libertalia? The 10 pirates or whatever? Remember the one who Sam can't remember the name of, whose sigil is a monkey?
That's Guybrush Threepwood from the Monkey Island series.
You see his portrait and it's like a strawberry blond guy with a biggish chin and pirate regalia. His name is scraped out. Nate texts Sam and Sam texts back like "I don't recognise the monkey sigil". AKA Monkey Island, Guybrush's original destination and haunt.
Then when you get to the treasury on Libertalia, and there are all the portraits with 'Thief' written all over them? The one with Guybrush has the name mainly scraped out, but you can see it begins with "Gu-".
It's fucking awesome. Naughty Dog legit builtof all time right into their key lore/plot.the protagonist of one of the greatest adventure games
I have to say there's a way better easter egg in UC4 than this one, IMO. Way better.
I explained over in the spoiler-free impressions thread. There is an easter egg which ties to a legendary non-Naughty Dog franchise. And it's not like a comical "oh look at that reference" thing. It's a proper built-in part of the game's lore/backstory which Drake and team are uncovering.
Cross-post so that people can avoid the spoilers if they want by quoting me:

So I guess this confirms the Crash shit was specifically embargoed? Or at the very least caught in a catch-all embargo.

An Easter Egg:https://youtu.be/cCzKUg3jOfkMonkey Island
Well for one thing, that's actually an easter egg you have to look out for and know enough about to get. The Crash thing is a mandatory story segment that they make no bones about lol
Wow.......now THAT is a great reference ! Considering the game is dealing with treasure hunting and stuff, that isn't shocking that a old pirate star has a cool cameo . Thank you for sharing this man !
Got my copy a few hours ago and Im about to play this, Im so hyped to play this segment lol
God, that 'Sony confirms CB rights...' thread is draining.
I'm getting mine in a couple of hours. So hyped!

That Edson guy is totally incorrect on so many things but I've fallen so far behind in the thread and it's hard to correct. It's frustrating seeing so many falsities about Crash and its ownership online perpetuated and argued.
That poster is a decent fellow, so confused on why he so strongly believes Crash isn't coming back :l.
Oh well, at least this thread is positive .
He called me a liar after I told him that he was arguing when I went to work in the morning and was still arguing now, even though he's lied and just made stuff up a ton since then. He's done nothing but bicker with a bunch of people and tried to tell them several times that they're wrong and he's right and he's done it without an ounce of respect towards anyone. I am sorry if this offends you or anything, but that guy's an asshole.
Oh, I agree; that was uncalled for how he acted to many in the Crash thread. But working with him on some games in the Mega Man Retrospective was worthwhile and he was respectful to me .
Still, it was not right he acted so harshly to people . Sorry if he bothered or upset you man.
I'm fine now , but I was just fine until he called me a liar. That really bothered me so that's why I left the thread. I didn't want to get banned over him.
It's cool he's worked with you on threads before though, and I'm glad he was at least respectful to you. I wonder why he was being so hostile in the other thread. The whole thing just seemed really unnecessary.
I guess he is sour on Crash coming back? That is the only reason I could think of for the whole episode today :l.
Glad you are fine now and glad you left the thread when the time was best; getting banned over nothing is dumb XD!
Possibly. I just never understand the need some users have to 'help quell other people's expectations'. It's such bs. If people want to get hyped, let them! You're just wasting everyone's time trying to change their mind.
Yeah, I really didn't want to get banned over that. I'm glad I left when I did.

The goal of investigation is to find the truth, if you catch my drift.
The reddit guy also said the next TLOU will feature Ellie in her mid 20s a few days ago which I totally can see happening.
Pretty sure this is pure bunk. ND are on record saying (with no agenda to lie) that the core concept behind TLOU2 isn't even pinned down, yet.
So when is it going to be okay to have an accurately titled thread about this and the implications of the credits thing?
We'd probably hear more about tomorrow or Wednesday at best. At least Tim Gettys knows about it and went batshit insane.Sooo... why aren't gaming outlets making a fuss about Crash being in Uncharted 4 and what it could possibly mean?...

I doubt that.Or maybe because no one in that thread had any logical reason for thinking he was coming back?
I doubt that.

I made this video (beware, french language : proceed at your own risk) gathering all the relevant information (easter eggs/references) we have on an hypothetical Crash Bandicoot's comeback. I tweeted it to PlayStation France, and here's what they answered :
Which roughly translates to :
"@PlayStationFR, when will we be able to play Crash on PS4 ? "
"Right now, with Uncharted 4 ;-)"
You know what really infuriates me ? The wink. If it wasn't for the wink, I'd just think "Eh, they don't want to tease it any more, just wait a couple months and see if there's anything new", but this wink... Tell me there's something going on. You're seeing too, right ? I see dead IP's waking up from their eternal rest.
Very possibly but I seriously hope it's not going to be made by Naughty Dog - unless they have a small team on the side doing it. The people that made the original game have mostly left the company so it's not like there is a ton of history there.Well. Sony only said 'Crash rights still belongs to Activision', but they didnt do much to shut down the new game rumours.
Crash is coming, no doubts about it.

Jesus so it's neigh impossible to beat Elena's score?
Impossible to beat it in the first one, easy in the second one.
