| BraLoD said: I don't think some of you are actually reading the OP. Of course Sony doesn't need it, the "goal" would be more of a symbol rather than a need, and,that would serve as a kind of pre-order instead of funding the game development coasts. |
No because even if it was done your way has a symbolic gesture, what you would get would be a lot of negative press along the lines of wtf was Sony thinking.
The reasons being kickstarter is seen as a way of getting projects that haven't got other funding options and Sony having that funding capacity would be seen has using kickstarter for their own ends .
The question of Sony making a spiritual successor of a game not owned by them done by a studio that doesn't (A)have the principle people that where involved with crash working there anymore .
(B) Sony would basically be forcing ND to make the type of game that they themselves stated had been taken has far as they could and that was said about both crash and later J&D after they spent time and effort on a PS3 version , All this done Via kickstarter just doesn't add up.
Now if you asked people if a Kickstarter from someone other than Sony , say an indie that built upon the things they loved about crash then you may succeed but that would have to be off the back of a demo/early access that showed that potential.
Research shows Video games help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot
