I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh, who would ever wanna be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I grew up poor and barely got to play games growing up. I had an NES while people played SNES. When we got our PS1, I fell in love with the Crash demo. Months later Crash 2 was the first game I could buy for my PS1. It's a damn shame what happened to this amazing franchise. Please bring it back Sony.

Long Live The King

I hope it's a totally new game, only sharing the characters from the originals. Frankly, once you remove the nostalgia goggles the first few Crash games do not hold up that well, and the later ones never were that great to begin with. Nowhere near Ratchet or Sly Cooper levels.

BUT it's a great property and I think with a bold new game (a reboot, if you will), it could do very well.
 
How bout Naughty Dog takes care of it.
They abandoned their child, they SHOULD PUT IT BACK ON ITS FEET after leaving him at the shelter to be picked up by Activision.

He's bigger than sweet tooth or sly. But he's not even close to sonic.

Anyway hopefully a new game gets made for the ps4. And hopefully it sells well and leads to a few sequels. I've just become a bit cynical after Sony has been killing off low/average selling, non AAA franchises left and right.

At least he'll be in all the ps4 party games.
joking

Does he need to be as big as Sonic? Sonic is one of the biggest and most recognisable characters in gaming history. Crash may not be as big as Sonic, but he's still a well known character and the masses would eat up a Crash revival. He's big enough and the point is there would be a lot of interest in a new Crash game. Oh and by the way I guarantee you that if Sony did make a new good Crash game, it would sell better than any recent Sonic game.

yeah, well Sonic hasn't been in any good games lately...not since the genesis (or sega Cd)...whereas Crash game a generation later.
