Crash Launch in UK bigger than Horizon

I hope they make a true sequel to warped (after they remaster CTR and Bash). They need to pretend that anything past those 5 games never happened.
 
Hell yeah, way to go Crash!

Don't quote me but I think the 2014 shirt might also debut at #1. :)

Yep lol.

$40 is definitely a great spot for remakes and remasters. Hopefully Sony and partners will keep diggin' up them old gems and filling the mid-tier game slot - coupled with a lower priced console and they start to get into that impulse-buy, casual-friendly territory that might elevate the PS4 to PS2 levels.

That would be great.

Yeah, I hope they keep going. Rachet also did excellent.

That's both incredibly sad and incredibly amazing. Missing out on Horizon should be a sin. Its such a well crafted and amazing game.

This too though. If they've now got PS4s they should totally pick up Horizon too.
 
Oh God the comments lol

Just nostalgia? Nobody enjoy these games? Really?

Yeah, i mean, it's almost unbelievable to read through Crash threads and seeing so much salt, even when some aren't overly aggressive, they are dismissing that a lot of people actually loves Crash, it's so funny, lol.

The Coot is taking all these salty tears and spinning.
 
The game's director has outright stated that Sony came to Activision to make this game and that is how development started. Check some of the video interviews from around December or January.
 
So your personal taste defines everyone's?

I believe the point they're trying to make is that there are people in here who are saying that Crash was never a good game, and people only played it because they didn't have an N64 and Mario 64.

It's not people saying they didn't like the game, it's people acting as though they can see the real truth that no one played it because they liked it which is the problem with the Crash threads on here. As if people who enjoy Crash are just stupid, and can't see the big picture.
 
Not a big fan of the series, but good to see a platformer outside Nintendo & Sonic doing well. I wonder if this will spur a new Crash, or additional investment into platformer IP in general.
 
Worth noting in terms of budget / expectations this may be the most successful Remaster ever. (Obviously GTAV is much bigger but that was expected to be a massive juggernaut)
 
Wowsers...this bodes well for a CTR remake as well I hope. Best Buy had a delay with my copy and that only happens on popular releases.

Looks like the game will do very well. IMO I think the critics should have given even better review scores, for $40 this is absolutely amazing value, right along with Wipeout collection.
 
Weird that these games people only liked because they were dumb babies in the 90s are being shat on by dumb babies in 2017

Really makes you think

I would say GTAV current-gen release was a port, not remaster. But yeah, the RoI on this release must be huge.
 
From member that has access to numbers in PAL thread :
I'm looking at the actual sales number for Crash and I'm genuinely in disbelief, like is this an error.

Granted its £30 but even so for a June/July launch, that is a hell of a total.


It's already outsold MK8D and it should eclipse Zelda by next week. Insane....

Damn.
 
I never played a Crash game outside of Uncharted 4, so I'm not qualified to render an opinion on whether they were ever good or not. Congrats to Vicarious Visions either way.
 
I feel like it was pretty short between announcement and release, do we know how long it took Vicarious Visions to remake this? Bodes well for more down the road.

Is Spyro owned by Activision too?
 
It's a lot of pure game play and that is a good thing, I hardly find what makes Horizon or other open world games that appealing but to be fair I have yet to play Horizon to know how it really feels so it may not be as I seem to make it sound for me. May like it.

I do wonder if it was stated and stated harder to be a ps4 exldusive if it would have sold more than actually being on more platforms. I also wonder if this will get Sony to try and lock it up and promote it as such and go ahead with a 4 or CTR
