As has been said, both of those franchises are owned by Sony as is Naughty dog, so they aren't going to be sold. Sony probably doesn't give a damn about losing Crash Bandicoot because the series fell off a long time ago. It's not a hot IP anymore. Same goes for Spyro. Ratchet, Jak, and Sly Cooper are much more popular right now and will never go multi-platform as they are first party titles. |
Actually, Crash only went worse AFTER Sony sold them. In fact, all of Sony's Crash Bandicoot games were better than their predecessors, so there was no need to sell them. It was a perfectly good franchise.
Just because Jak is owned by Sony, doesn't mean that they wont sell them. In fact, all of the Jak and Daxter games did slightly worse than their predecessors based on the reviews. Unlike the Crash games, which did better than their predecessors before Sony sold the franchises off. Therefore, there is more of a reason to sell the Jak franchise. Jak 4 may or may not be made by Naughty Dog, if there is going to be a Jak 4.
Insomniac sold Spyro when Spyro was at its best. Therefore, Insomniac could sell Ratchet. Yes, Ratchet and Jak are owned by Sony. But Crash and Spyro were too, and they sold them off. We don't know. Only Insomniac and Naughty Dog know.
And never say never. Nobody ever thought Spyro and Crash would go multi platform. Even Sonic went multi platform. Sly, Ratchet, and Jak could be sold off. Nothing is preventing them from being sold off. End of story.
