Crash Bandicoot Trilogy "Lost Treasures" DLC trophies leaked

Cut level from Crash 1. Essentially Slippery Climb but hard as balls.
This is great. I'm so pleased they found a way to work the Cortex announcer stuff into their new intro.
And they also mimmick the whole logo narration from back in the day, gosh, i still know the one from Warped by heart!
And for fun read the logos on Bloodborne in the same manner
It very well could be, or maybe a preorder bonus or something.
But this is Activision. They have set some awful precedents, and I am unable to give them the benefit of the doubt.
THIS. 3 remakes for 40$ is a steal it's almost too good to b true, and people complain about this?! You'll get everything that was included in the 3 games and then some more in the package.
Lol come on.
Some of the reactions in this thread... smh...
We're getting three "remastered" (they're really remakes) games for $40 total, and you're up in arms about a level that most people weren't even aware about, which was not accessible by normal means, possibly (still not confirmed) being paid DLC and polished up to a playable degree. Geez.

Not really getting the hate if this turns out to be paid DLC? First of all, this is Activision we're talking about; of course if it's DLC, it's gonna be paid. Second, if the DLC are levels that weren't even in the original games, you're gonna be mad that you're not getting what was cut content in the first place for free? Lmao come on now.

lol, I thought the same thing.
you got it backwards, actually. those levels were cut before the release of the original game and are being restored in DLC form

The remakes are the full games
The DLC in question is content cut from the original game that was never "officially" accessible
So essentially they would be charging for content never released, completely remade like the rest
This of course, is a horrible thing or something on top of the already modestly priced package
They were not.
From my understanding, Crash 1 had a few cut levels but two were largely complete. The DLC listed/discovered? Those are the lost/cut levels, fully recreated like the rest of the game. Them being DLC (likely cheap DLC too, no less than maybe 5-6$) isn't that bad at all, more so considering how the game is already a great deal at $40 bucks.

Your wrong they didn't cut anything from the remakes. This is content that was cut from original crash game that is apparently being restored in the remake.
There is also no evidence so far that they'll be charging for it but Acti will Acti I suppose.

Fucking DLC for a remaster.
No thanks. Will get used in a few years.

Proof? People are jumping the gun here, I haven't seen anything that suggests it's dlc and not just an update that adds restored content.
Or you could just, y'know, not buy the DLC?
Stop me if I'm being crazy here. N. Sane, if you will.
Yes because three games remade from the ground up for $40 isn't worth it . I can't even tell if some of you are joking.

Quick someone post the Mona Lisa picture to combat this blatant anticonsumerism

Also this. If they did end up charging for it(which I'm still doubting), it's cut content that wasn't accessible in the original game anyways.

They at least need a spoof of the Uncharted: Lost Legacy cover art for this, at least.
Lol if that's correct some of the people in here are being incredibly dramatic! If you're betting 3 entire games for 13 dollars a piece but then complain about content that was not playable in those original games being added? Especially before it's even confirmed?
Do people really think that you can feed your family with forum posts? Don't be ridiculous the game is already a great deal.

The extra levels should have been on the disc already.
I will not give Activision my money. I'll wait for it to be cheap and used.
Ah, thanks for the clarification. My mistake, I was not aware this was referring to restored content. As such, I'm guessing this will be paid DLC and not a free update.

3 fully remade games for 40 dollars gives them the right to charge a little extra for original content. It probably still doesn't add up to a full priced game.
You could just not buy the DLC. The games are $40 and that's a steal.
The level of greed here is staggering. You're getting three beloved games, recreated from the ground up with countless improvements and tweaks across the board for $40 measly bucks...
...and you're going to veto because they won't give you even more?
If this is some kind of moral crusade, your feelings are very much misplaced in this case. For players who like this kind of game, the value on offer is uncommonly excellent.

The game is no longer complete in my eyes. For that reason alone it's not worth the price they are asking.
I'm buying used.
But if he does he can't get to complain on a forum.

If the product was already bought new, shouldn't the used copy be free?
I mean paying for something that's already been bought, that's practically DLC in itself if you really think about it. Really makes you think about how that $40 purchase can turn into more smaller purchases for the same product
In what sense is it not complete? Even if we take the leap to assume that the DLC is cut content from the original games, how does leaving that off the disc make the game incomplete? The content was never playable without modding, nor was it ever intended to be accessible by the public.
The fucking moon-logic in this place sometimes, seriously.
Bruh, there's an amiibo hate thread from today.
There's hatred in every thread, and yeah, it's especially fucking annoying with Crash but there's no need to push that there's a narrative or some kind of fan bias or anything. Everyone on NeoGAF hates everything and anyone in their right mind is too busy playing games to post.
Well your eyes are messed up. Get them checked out by a doctor. The three games, remade in their complete state are being sold as a package for $40. Extra levels will be offered as DLC.
If you consider this $40 package incomplete, then the original games were incomplete as well.
I can see why people are upset about this. Stormy Ascent isn't in the original game directly, but the assets are used in Slippery Climb. It feels wrong knowing an entire level that'd be relatively easy to add may very well cost extra. Especially if it's $5 extra & the only level added, making it over 1/3 the price of the game as a whole.
Some of the reactions are hyperbolic, but I know I'll hate myself for supporting this skeezy practice, even if it only costs me $5.
