New Crash Bandicoot game coming to all platforms?

Wasn't Jason Rubin that said it?
It was Andy Gavin, more specifically he said:

Crash is a little like the really hot girlfriend that you dumped because of an important at the time argument. Then, years later when you run into her, find she’s a hooker with a crack problem. :(

EDIT: Just read Yawnier's reply. Ooops, I thought he was referring to the quote of Andy Gavin I've posted above. Sorry.

Crash Bash was better than Boom Bang

I think that's rather telling

This game will be a little bit like watching your own daughter do porn.

it is a reference to what Evan Wells said before
I'm familiar with these quotes, but after hearing some of the things about Naughty Dog I've heard (from Charles Zembillas, no less) I take that with a barrel of salt
 
Man you think when the thing was dead they'd stop raping it but... nope. Can't wait to see which new way Activision chooses to violate my childhood memories.

Crash Tag Team Racing was alright. The games in general haven't been outright awful, per say. Just stunningly mediocre. And the GBA Crash games were okay.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
So...is this confirmed to be fake or not? You know, I'd like to know if I can start dreaming about playing a Crash game again or not :(

Yeah, here's one of the creators of Crash talking about the involvements of himself, ND and others in Crash's creation and early days, from his blogspot. (And there's more (continues in the next two comments). Interesting seeing this side of the story)

Pretty much this; they've become awfully unremarkable.

Evan Wells apparently, although it is something that Rubin would probably say though.

Damn, what was the last Crash game I played? Wrath of Cortex, the GBA one (Huge Adventure? not Orange)? And I played a bit of the PS2 racer but didn't spend as much time as the original CTR.

It doesn't feel like I missed out on much.
 
Crash hasn't complete shit post ND. I remember really enjoying Crash Twinsanity, a really pure, honest platformer. Tag Team Racing also had it's moments, perhaps a little too ambitious, but it at least tried something new with the kart racer formula. While I'm not expecting a AAA effort here, I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Any new additions in the mascot platformer arena is good in my book. Mario and Sonic need some company.
 
I'll forever remember Crash as he was in Crash Bandicoot 1 in my head. Can't fanthom the amount of hours myself and my friends put into the game after school back in the day. Hell even now when we're having a few drinks before a night out we put the game on and have a laugh. Just can't stand what Activision have turned him into over the last few years.

Really, really hope this is a fake.

I saw this but was reluctant to post here. This is the explanation provided by the photo snapper who posted this a day ago:

"So I found this on the official crash bandicoot site, more specifically crashbandicoot.com/countdown if you go to the site crashbandicoot.com it should re-direct you. The spot where I would assume the countdown clock would be is unavailable and has one of those question marks. I took a picture on my phone to send to a friend quick and then i hit refresh and was unable to get the site back to take a screen cap so i have to apologize for the crappy photo quality. PLEASE upload a better one if you can, the site looks great! but hey! Crash is back! What do you guys think!"
Haha, the classic "refresh" excuse.

I wish Sony could buy Crash back... But Activision is unlikely to give him back, and it would still be sad to abstract him from his pal Spyro, who is unlikely to go anywhere after being reduced into a creature of some short-lived (albeit successful) series.

*sigh* I'd still be on for a Crash Bandicoot 4. You know, with time-travelling and stuff.

Yes, unless ND bought the Crash IP and is making a new Crash, I don't really care.

I remember Evan Wells once said seeing Crash being whored out like that was like seeing your daughter doing porn, or something like that.
 
If this does turn out to be true, I reckon it's a deliberate leak. I mean, who goes around trying to dig up stuff like this? Hah.

Please let it be like the original 3 games on PlayStation. PLEASE.

Hmm while interesting there are other franchises that i would like to see another addition to.

Starts with Jak and daxter and ends with MAKE IT.

i wish some bought crash and spyro and bring them back to life :(


tho i get well always have ps1 crash and spyro games :(
 
That image looks fake as fuck.


But I am pretty confident Activision have a new Crash game is in development and they were kicking ideas around a few years ago.

Wasnt there leaks of that current Gen Crash Kart game?

Hopefully whatever they have now is something I am interested in trying out and not Skylanders : Crash Edition.

Were those games any good, never played them.

I think I tried a demo at Sears once... you couldn't move in all directions! Felt weird.

ex. That teaser for a new Crash game? Totally planked.
