I hope they do it. This feels like an ideal timespan to start reviving classic Ps1 IP, Sony should look at their own catalogue as well.

Would this remastered collection by PS exclusive again?

Given its comparable circumstances it'd probably involve a similar deal. We don't know the specifics for Crash yet, but a minimum of a timed exclusive for Spyro seems like a reasonable assumption.

Lol, I don't know what I would be happy with more, T3 or Spyro remade. I killed so much time in both, and I love both to bits.

Both owned by Activison, both had a trilogy of games on the PS1 and both in dire need of a renaissance.

Crash was announced for it's 20th anniversay, Spyro's 20th is next year...

They will probably have a guy with a spyro t-shirt this psx which will cause hype for it's announcement next year probably at E3. I'd say we'll very likely see CTR remade with online multiplayer incorporated too.  I'd say they do spyro first then crash.

Forget spyro let's talk about CTR remaster next.

Crash Bandicoot Remake was announced in 2016 (Crash's 20th anniversary). Next year will mark Spyro's 20th anniversary, so who knows. ;) I also want to see VV work on a Remake of Crash Team Racing and Crash Bash in the future too. ^^




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

The success of N. Sane Trilogy has more to do with nostlgia and old Naughty Dog's design language than the new developer. Vicarious Visions seem to have done a great job renewing the games while not straying from the roots, and paying attention to the little things that matter. But It goes without saying, it's not as difficult to remake a game than to create a brand new one. Nitro Kart, which sucked big time, was also developed by Vicarious Visions..

I can see Activision taking advantage of the hype generated from this (and possibly Spyro Trilogy in the future) to later bring us all-new, but crappy, Crash and Spyro games. In other words history might repeat itself :P They're capitalizing on Naughty Dog's original design.

I wish Crash and Spyro would go back to the hands of the developers that made them special; Naughty Dog (or Sony), and Insomniac.

All I'm saying is a CTR game with really good car customisation like rocket league and the ability to race together online.  So the same as back in the day with coach Co op but online.

Crash's (apparent) success certainly makes a Spyro remaster more likely than it would have been a few weeks ago. But, Spyro was never anywhere close to the level of Crash's significance.

I don't know how much Activision spent on the Crash trilogy. If these enhanced remasters (for lack of a better term) are cheap, and they see easy money in Spyro, then it will be made. Otherwise, I think it is unlikely.
