Yup! I said it! Sony should buy back the rights for the Crash Bandicoot franchise and put their own development team working on it, to bring back the glory that once came with Crash Bandicoot titles. Just a thought.

But hey, I love CB and will continue to buy those games. Too bad they just don't want to make a Crash game for the PS3.

Crash Bandicoot is a pretty interesting IP. In order to make a game in that series successful you'd have to

1. make a game that feels like the original 3 without being "dated" somehow. I don't know how well that makes sense.

2. have pretty graphics

3. If they utilize sixaxis, don't overuse it. Make the motion feel natural not forced.

4. I think the game would be cool if the game had multiple paths.

5. no overworld.

6. small checkpoints during the levels and larger checkpoints at the start/end of each level.

7. The scenery of each level would be constantly changing throughout the progression of the level to match that of the upcoming level so it would feel like a seamless trasition. Like you were actually traveling all over the world.

8. Set up a buffer so that loading would be done in the background so that if possible, you could play the game straight through with the action never stopping.

9. Bosses with character and a story that intelligently ties everything together rather than throwing things in haphazardly because the dev thinks they're funny, giving you 3 lines of backstory and calling it a day.

You know, till this day I still consider Crash Bandicoot as the unofficial mascot of Sony. He was just Sony's image in so many ways.

I could see crash running through some of the environments that Naughty Dog created for Uncharted.

Agreed 100%

Sony needs to stop making crappy handheld versions of Crash Bandicoot and make CB for the PS3, I'd absolutely buy

Funny, I was thinking the same thing a couple of days ago. With what I seen in Uncharted, I think that Naughty Dog would make a stellar Crash Bandicoot game. To bad Sony sold it and can't/will not buy the series back. Crash would have been the perfect Sony PS mascot. At least we had him for the PS1.

I think it's sad how Sony let Crash Bandicoot go. As I already said, that furry orange fellow was Sony's true image and mascot.

Aw Nostalgia...

Yes Crash Bandicoot was such a great franchise back in the PS1 Days. The first console I ever owned was a PS1 and one of the first games was Crash Bandicoot Warped. I remember spending so much time collecting all the crystals and gems and unlocking all the secret levels. Furthermore Crash Team Racing is IMO the best Cart Racing Game of all time. I don't care if you disagree with me I'm standing firm on that.

It really sucks to see What the Crash Bandicoot series has become. After CTR the games stopped being developed by Naughty Dog and everything went down from there. I remember buying Crash Nitro Cart for the PS2, such a let down. Then I rented a Crash platformer for the PS2 it was so terrible.

I agree Sony should get the rights back and Naughty Dog should get to work. Crash Bandicoot may be a dying franchise but its in a far better place then Sonic the Hedgehog.

Come on Sony Bring Back Crash.

I can't agree on PS2 Crash games being 'terrible'. Yes, the series hasn't done anything special during the PS2 era, but the games have in my opinion still been good platformers with some old Crash jokes. And PS2 Crash games were still major when you look at sales.

I so wish Sony would take back the series and once again bring it to fame.

I like them but I was like 7YRS old when I played them. People are into FPS and violent racing now! The fad of the 2000's!

yh ur right, it used to be a great game i remember the days playing warped and some others on ps1 and enjoying it alot, till it went multiplatform from that moment it started to kinda suck and i never bought one again, so yh sony should buy it back and give it back the glory it used to have on ps1, that orange fox would fit so well to them specially as a mascot, i think someone should mail it to them who know maby they'll actually buy it back

Crash Bandicoot on the PlayStation 3 would be an awesome idea. I thought Warped on the original PlayStation was one of the best 3D platformers I ever played. Obviously, there will have to be improvements made all around, but hand the game over to Naughty Dog and I'm sure they will make it great like always.

Yeah, a petition would be awesome! Sony should pay attention to these things. Crash Bandicoot on PS3 is a win-win situtation.

Sony must buy back the IPs of Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot and Insomniac Games' Spyro the Dragon, fix my childhood.
