Excellent points that I see for the first time posted even though they make so much sense. I seriously couldn't agree more.

It's obvious. It's the same reason they do PSX every year and the reason they HAD to release TLG. TLG is worth way more to Sony as a way to keep people talking about Playstation and as something they can hold up and say "See! We said we'd do it and we fucking did it!" than it ever was as a direct financial proposition.

It's the reason we're getting remasters of Patapon, Locoroco, Parrapa the rapper, and the N-sane trilogy. They're really small investments on Sonys part that will probably only make a little bit of money on their own but generate a lot of traffic and buzz.

It's just a way more effective version of Microsoft talking about Scorpio once a week.

Definitely agree.  Though, I do think the Crash Trilogy is going to do quite well.  I was actually worried before that it wouldn't turn out good, but it's actually a 1:1 of the original games, only with better models/textures/effects.  That should please quite a few fans.
