With Sony on the helm... HELL YES!

With Activision on the helm... No, thanks. Keep that $hit.

CaptainAwesome3729d ago

I would really like to see Naughty Dog do it again to be honest. The first 3 games were awesome (and Crash Team Racing!) then the quality started to decline when Naughty Dog left.

DarkOcelet3729d ago

I have to say, I loved Crash Bash to be honest XD. And the first two PS2 Crash titles but it all went to crap in the PS3/X360 era.

breakpad3729d ago (Edited 3729d ago )

if it is to return , he must return as a AAA+A prodution game otherwise will be its last and gravestone together ... there is no space for mistakes or mediocrities ...Sony must either buy back the IP and release it as completely exclusive made by its own 1stparty or branch studios either leave it alone and dont involve at all in a multiplatform Activision-made effort

BlakHavoc3729d ago

That would be best for Crash but I can't see ND ever doing an animated game again. Plus I can't see Sony being cool with their best studio making a game that would appeal to a small amount of their install base. But I would like to see crash return, but only if it's done properly, not just for a cash grab.

ocelot073729d ago

Not sure why a lot of people want to see ND do another Crash game. Haven't most of the staff who worked on Crash on PS1 left ND many years ago?

@blakhavoc

Small install base? Im guessing you didnt hear about sony's uk popup store for the 20th anniversary ps4.

Walk in and say "you crashed my banicoot" and you get the ps4 limited for like 200usd.

Crash was our mascot until jak and daxter took over. Its mario for sony. Its part of every true ps owners blood.

Small install base. I laugh in your general direction

Exactly what I'm thinking.

-Foxtrot3729d ago

Seriously I don't want to sound ungrateful but if they annouce a partnership at E3 instead of making the game themselfs without Activision it would be like "what's the point".

God imagine if they keep the new designs...urgh

TwoForce3729d ago

I would love to see him return, but Activision hold him in prison.

I want naughty dog to make crash and no one else. Crash is coming this year at e3 but I fear naughty dog won't be the developers which will just kill it for me because there were rumours that knack was supposed to be the new crash and we all know how that turned out unfortunately.

BlakHavoc3729d ago

Honestly I think there's no way ND is developing this game. I understand a lot of ppl are fans but this game would only appeal to a handful of PSs install base. Not myself included, but I feel like most ppl who own a ps4 don't want to play games that look animated.

WeAreLegion3729d ago

It's a pretty basic game by today's standards. If they're making something that plays like the old ones, they only need a handful of people to make it.

BigBosss3729d ago

Absolutely! I'd die for a remastered version of Crash Team Racing with online play especially battle mode and 4 players split screen and more characters, weapons, maps and modes and of course trophy!

Davi1233729d ago

Please STOP! T^T I could die happy if that happen! :,)

ORyanDeee3729d ago

Crash Team Racing was awesome, cant believe its been around 15 years since i first started playing it

Relientk773729d ago

If its given to Sony/their studios then yes, I cannot wait

1996 Voted as ‘Best Year in Gaming’ by UK Public

Have you ever wondered what the best year in gaming was? Well wonder no more! The British public have had their say, and voted for 1996.

Limitedtimestruggle1338d ago

I have some many fond memories as a 10 year old gamer from back then! The best of times!

Dfooster1338d ago

Yeah that is a good choice. Great times

Snakeeater251338d ago

Lol Nintendo 64 … talk about a shitty year for gaming

Old McGroin1338d ago

The N64 was amazing at the time, how old are you, 12?

CobraKai1338d ago

Mario 64, Mario Kart, WaveRace. They’re prolly too young to appreciate em. My kids love the N64.

Terry_B1338d ago

No..1996 was not a good start for the N64. The system had a lousy start in comparison to the SNES, Playstation and probably even the Sega Saturn.

CobraKai1338d ago

So…. Nevermind the first time Resident Evil or Tomb Raider was released, a damn near arcade perfect port of Tekken 2, Quake, Wipeout, Crash Bandicoot, Super Mario RPG, Nights, Panzer Dragoon Zwei? It’s shitty cuz the old N64 is it?

BrainSyphoned1338d ago (Edited 1338d ago )

More of a 97 person myself.
FF7, Symphony of the Night, Gran Turismo, Grand Theft Auto, Dynasty Warriors, Diablo, Fallout, Tomb Raider 2, Mega Man Legends, GoldenEye, Turok, Wing Commander Prophecy, Star Fox 64, Einhander, Tobal 2, Bushido Blade, Colony Wars, Ultima Online. Was a great year to start working at Funcoland.

You beat me to it. I loved both years, but 97 was one of my favorite years ever.

Marcello1338d ago

2013 was a good year too. Dead Space 3, The Last of Us, GTA5, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Tomb Raider reboot, Bioshock Infinite, Batman: Arkham Origins, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Grid 2 & more.

Limitedtimestruggle1337d ago

Dead Space 3? That game only deserves to be on rock-bottom lists. In my honest opinion.

Marcello1337d ago

Its is very Marmite that game but to me it was only that love story nonsense that was bad, really bad.
