    The release date for the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is almost upon us. Is anybody else picking this up?

    I really want to but I don't think I can afford a new game for awhile, I'm afraid.

    I don't really like buying games at full price anymore, but this is <£30 at launch so I'm quite happy paying that. It'll be the last game that I buy for a while, though.

    Yeah, I think the discounted price is really selling me on the game. I don't know if I'll have any time to play it in the near future though.

    I definitely recommend everyone pick this up if they can. The developers apparently remade the games from the ground up, and put a ton of effort into them.

    I feel pretty confident that if this sells well, we're almost definitely going to see the return of Crash in some new games.

    Yeah, there are some people calling the trilogy "remasters", but I'd say they're "remakes". Sure, they're exactly the same games so they're not technically remakes, but they're much more than a remaster and, like you say, you can see the effort that has been put in to bring Crash up to todays standards. I'm pretty sure that the game will sell a ton of copies and will easily take #1 in the all formats charts in various countries upon release. Naughty Dog have praised VV on this as well.

    While a playable version of Crash 1 is tempting, it's also my dislike for said game that deters me. I got all three for $0.99 during a flash sale anyway and still need to try and beat the first game as well as play the other two (which I hopefully assume are better).

    Now a Spyro trilogy remake... I would be all over that.

    FWIW I never was a fan of Crash 1, but Crash 2 and 3 are some of my favorite games ever.

    I loved Crash 1 as a kid. I replayed it on a PS1 emulator relatively recently and while I enjoyed a lot of it, parts of it were really fiddly and frustrating. The control didn't feel quite as tight as a more modern game would. So the idea of a remake rather than a remaster is an appealing one.

    I read a few months back they reworked this trilogy and made Crash 1 waaaay easier. So a lot of this may have been rectified.

    That should be the case, since they had to build it from the ground up in a reverse engineering manner, since the original files for the game were either lost or indecipherable

    I will probably pick this collection up, even though I never got into the series initially. I was way late to the PS1 party, and not really into any of the kid-friendly games at the time. In fact, I mostly had RPGs for the console. But despite not having a history or nostalgia regarding the series, I super appreciate that this game exists, and it brings me hope that other things like it will happen, as I too would love a Spyro game. I never owned it, but my brother's family had it, and I liked what I saw and what little I played. And there need to be more good platformer games these days. And from what I've heard, Yooka-Laylee didn't scratch that itch for many people
