Crash does appear on other consoles though? and for that reason i dont really think hes much of a mascot. Mario is by far the best, sonic is ok, but mario is superior lol

"Sorry, but it is a fact. Sony made Crash their unofficial mascot for the PS1. Go look it up in www.wikipedia.org. I would say PS2's mascot is Ratchet. Sony should have just kept Crash though."

  i know..i just thought its funny crash is even mention in the same sentence as mario...

 

 

"1.Mario 2.Sonic 3.Megaman 4.master chief (is a fiction character, is a company mascot) 5.crash "

 crash at 5? more like at 555 right after huey, dewy and louie and ALEX THE KIDD.

 ROFL

 

even my avatar Poo would sh!t all over crash...well imo

Sorry, none of those characters beat Crash Bandicoot.

Crash Bandicoot is the thirteenth best selling franchise in the world. Check it out in Wikipedia. Rayman, Megaman, Pac-Man, Sly, Jak, Spyro, Blinx, Conker, Banjo, and a few other very good franchises, aren't superior (at least in sales) than Crash.

Come on... Crash Bandicoot. If you don't like Crash, you don't like Sony.

Sony's mascot is pretty much Ratchet if you wanna think of one, although Kratos is really Sony's mascot which puts makes him much more violent than the other two lol

I don't even know what Kratos is. What is Kratos?

As you can see, Crash Bandicoot owns Mega Man, and Rayman, and Spyro. Where's Ratchet? Where's Jak? Ratchet and Jak are in 5 games each, soon to be 6 games each, yet they don't even make the list. Still no love for Crash, ehh? It was those newer games that ruined him. I mean, Sonic was ruined too. Sonic, and Crash were both ruined. WTF is Football doing in #5? Why Football? Why no Basketball, or Hockey? Is Football that much more popular?

 That was humour on my part. And just because something sells well in the past does not mean that is a greater maskot than legends like Megaman, Pac-man and co. If you put an image of Pac-man or a sprite of megaman on the internet, 100% of the viewers are going to identify them. With Crash that is not the case. He is less likely to be familliar to a gamer. Even Spyro or Rayman are more popular than him now (Rayman doing well on sales,Spyro voiced by frodo). I never liked his design, he was to me a cheap rip-off of Taz with pants. He and Bubsy are my least likeable characters ever.

P.s: I don't hate Sony.

Bubsy haha.

 he was originally so he can count. The new crash game isnt out yet so let him still fall under that.

 

But if you really want a mascot for Sony... choose Ratchet or Jak.
