Actually, I feel that the Open Sandbox game is slowly replacing the Shooter as the predominant genre. 3D platformers are a bit difficult to make popular again outside of Mario and other Nintendo games, the owners of the other famous mascot platformers (Crash, Spyro, Banjo and Kazooie, Conker, Sonic...) probably are more interested in other genres.


It's practically a miracle we got Rare Replay on Xbox One.

The Sonic situation is mostly Sega's incompitence, and Crash's situation is Activison's stupidity.

Actually, I thought Rare Replay was a given. It was instant value with very little investment needed.

Activision is probably interested in Crash, now that the PS4 is selling so well. Spyro will be stuck on Skylanders for a very long time, there's too much money there. Sega is in a very weak spot, and with Sonic Boom selling as little as it did, I don't count on Sonic for a long time.



You know it deserves the GOTY.
