i dont agree with may i think to let go crash bandicoot it biggest mistake as it was becoming a famous game and each new part had better sales than previous one

It seems Naughty Dog wanted to do something else... Which would probably have led to the same outcome as we got. Maybe Sony would have found another studio that could have made the series even better and more popular but I doubt it. Haven't done much research about it though, so...

Which reminds me, I wonder what Halo will become after Bungie. And what will Call of Duty become after Infinity Ward.
