A new Crash game by the Knack team would be something amazing.

gif dump time

lol the panda goes to heaven also - he aint dead crash

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

Call me crazy but I think the Crash games still look pretty good considering they are 3D games on the PS1.

No I think so too. Kinda like FFVII. Simple and really blocky. Basically adorable legos.

 

[kevcampbell]

Hope Sony has bought back Crash, we need Crash on PS4

NO.

Knack doesn't exactly inspire confidence does it?

 

[Tizoc]

it's happening?.... it's HAPPENING!!!!!!!

*hyperventilates

THIS IS WHAT I'M FEELING RIGHT NOW!!!!!

 

[Ensirius]

If this happens ps4 is an insta buy for me

 

[maniac-kun]

If this happens ps4 is an insta buy for me

 

[TheCanisDirus]

NO.

Maybe Knack was a mechanics test and they've been toiling hard at work on Crash and they've got another year to... yeah ok probably not lol

 

[luxstellarum]

Fuck Crash. Would rather have Tomba!

Come at me.

Holy shittt that game!!

Nostalgia thread.

 

[Violater]

How would a next gen crash game even translate?
I fear you guys might be blinded by nostalgia which is rarely ever turns out well in a remake.

 

[Sean*O]

If so, Sony need to put their top team on it. If it comes out of the oven at Knack level it would be an enormous fumble of a major IP... and I like Knack, but it's rough around the edges.

I fear you guys might be blinded by memories.

I fear you may be blinded by an incorrect opinion.

 

[ChamplooJones]

I agree, unlike most 3D games from that era the Crash games have aged well both in graphics and gameplay. Part of that is due to some very creative engineering on Andy Gavin's side.

Knack is great.
Quite popular in the official thread (even resident grump Derrick likes it) and popular with streamers.

That being said, I'd rather Japan Studios work on something else, not Crash.

 

[QuantumBro]

NO.

Did you actually play Knack or just read reviews of it?

 

[strafer]

He's so cute.

What's wrong with a solid but linear platformer? Did you not enjoy the Mario Galaxy games?

Spoiler

This is assuming it has to be linear at all. The possibilities are endless really.

 

[Violater]

Naa more pessimism.

Haven't played a nintendo game in almost 20 years.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

wow? did Sony really do it?
Buying back their Icon of a lost generation.

That would be awesome.

 

[Empty]

the polar bears expression is so adorable :3

So... from a couple of weeks ago (this thread):


Let's add some more crazy theories, HL3-style!


What did Cerny recently say regarding what's next for him?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke3HsV299cY&t=8m54s

"I think from next year I'm really going to get back to my gaming roots a bit"

Crash series wiki page:




Aaaand finally, the Uncharted PS4 teaser:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SnJPTkrD7o&t=15s

"I lost 15 years, buried alive [...]"

The last ND-developped, SCE-published Crash game was CTR, released in 1999.


Discuss.

Aaaand I'm gonna add one more.
The voice in the Uncharted 4 teaser... could this be... Clancy Brown?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uforvXZSK1c&t=7s

vs

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SnJPTkrD7o&t=15s

I mean, he's voiced Uka Uka in most Crash games

 

[RatskyWatsky]

The first time I ever played a game on a PlayStation, I played this level. :3

 

[RaikuHebi]

Someone make a Crash Banderas gift!

 

[themagicalkitsune]

 

[Azure Phoenix]

Not going to get my hopes up over this, but hypothetically if Sony were to buy Crash and put out a title that can capture the spirit of the original trilogy I would go out and buy a PS4 for it.

Spoiler

Still would rather they buy Spyro, but Skylanders has killed that hope

 

[SlipperyFishes]

A new Crash game by the Knack team would be something amazing.

You do realise Knack was basically Crash in HD for 2013?

Gamers are more intelligent now, we demand more from our gameplay. If you replaced Knack for Crash the end result would still be the same. Sub par.

 

[Dr. Buni]

A new Crash Bandicoot game developed by Naughty Dog would be amazing, although I'd rather see the dev working in a game on the vein of The Last of Us. Still, great 'news'. So fa r the PS4 doesn't interest me at all, but a new Crash game could change things a little bit.

 

[Tizoc]

Yo just do a PSVita+PS3/4 Crash Bandicoot game ala Crash 2 and 3, stages would resemble similar structure to Super Mario 3D World, being 3-5 minutes to complete each stage, Main 25 stages+crystals, hidden warp room for the Colored Gems, Time trials and all that good ish.
THIS IS THE VITA GAME I'VE BEEN WANTING FOR SO LONG!

 

[Gartooth]

The voice in the teaser was really Neo Cortex!

But honestly guys, Sony isn't going to hype up a new Uncharted game and then betray that fanbase.

 

[gwiz210]

But will we see a PS4 return of Crash Team Racing?

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

Did you actually play Knack or just read reviews of it?

Read reviews and watched plenty of gameplay footage of it. It does not look good. If it ever becomes free on PS Plus I'll play it, but I doubt my opinion of it will change even then.

 

[Red Chocobo]

Aren't Sanzaru working on a secret PS4 game?

They have made R&C and Sly Cooper games. Maybe Sony are using them for a Crash game....

 

[jacobeid]

holy shit holy shit holy shit. The feels. I'm 7 years old again. Please let this turn into something cool!

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

Can't wait for the melt down when Crash has a goatee, cusses nonstop and has a gun.

 

[RaikuHebi]

You are stupid. Learn some perception of game mechanics and level design before spouting off that crap.

I believe the fanbases overlap.

It wasn't anything even remotely like Crash.

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

He's so cute.

It was cool how in the hub you could jump on him a bunch of times to get extra lives. The game vomited lives at you anyway so you never really needed them, but it was still cool.

wtf

 

[CREMSteve]

Whoa, I step away from GAF for a few hours, and this thread happens!

I would LOVE for Sony to get the rights to Crash back.

 

[QuantumBro]

Uh yeah, that's why I wrote that.

I concur.

 

[Sourtreats]

CTR 2 pls.

I loved the crap out of that game.

 

[rexor0717]

I think I would buy a PS4 for some good Crash.

No matter how many times I hear this it always pisses me off.

WAIT A MINUTE....

WE DON'T KNOW STILL MEDIA MOLECULE PS4 PROJECT


Crash + MM

[ZombiePlatypus]

Posting this again cause the previous poster's got buried a few pages ago.

[Mondy]

Thank you based Sony.

Everyone help me start the chant: "NAUGHTY DOG! NAUGHTY DOG!"
