Can you be cheap with a disc?

Do they charge by file size? Or did Activision rent out 40gb for ads inside the disc and only 10gb were left for Spyro?

A bit odd. These are remakes through-and-through, but hardly measuring up to games like GoW. Ae they just not using any form of compression?

Well I can see this pissing off a lot of people.. To a point where they might not even actually buy the game at launch... Might even affect sales.

When it comes to storage Nintendo acts like they don't know how to count. Last gen consoles literally have better storage than the Switch.

True, but they kept the gameplay intact didn't they? So all the code and AI and stuff is based on a PS1 game... which had to fit on a CD (700 MB). Even if all the art is totally new for higher resolution, It's laughable they can't get these 3 games on 50GB. Something must be really screwy with the way they are doing this. I guess we'll see when the game comes out what type of download is required. This is not the type of game one would expect some huge 50GB download to hit them like what happens with Star Wars or CoD or Battlefield.

A Switch version isn't listed. They're probably being rebuilt from the ground up.

I would prefer a Switch version. I have a 200GB card in it that's not being used yet. Plus I'm trying to keep all family oriented games on the one platform.

I know its a remake hybrid, but if they were able to fit 3 games with Crash, they should be able to do it with Spyro, since both are the same remake hybrid.
makes you think it like what Capcom did with Megaman Collection on the Switch, where they split it into cartridge and download

Yeah, I thought that was weird, also; the CoD4 remaster was actually better than most remasters I've seen. Not surprising that they charged extra for the DLC maps for the remasters, though. Lol

Ratchet And Clank PS4 was a 27Gb download...... That had Full HD FMV in it too which no doubt inflated the download size.

I'm sure PS4 can use 60Gb disks so all 3 games should fit on to a disk.

Are these games long? Crash did just fine, fit on a Switch cartridge and IMO the porting job is excellent too.

I'm Pretty sure Crash 2+3 were installing while you could only play Crash 1. Despite that, I went the digital route anyways, so this doesn't really mean shit for me and already pre-order digital PS4.

Activision wants everyone to download 60 GB that should be in the game. Seriously, go somewhere else with that garbage Activision or go get a higher capacity Blu-Ray.

Agreed, I mean if SE can fit Final Fantasy XV (launch version) in one disc, Bethesda with Skyrim and Fallout 4, Activision should have no problems fitting 3 platform games in one disc since it shouldn't take a hefty size. And I doubt 1 Spyro game takes a whole Blu-Ray capacity.

Now this is no problem for people that were going to get it digitally or have fast internet, but this is BS for people that want to get it physically. Since we wanted to get the game without the hassle of long download times, not everyone has fast internet connection.

Also same here for love of Retro Games.

that is really crazy, it felt more than 16GB. Though the Megaman Collection on the Switch was a head scratcher, can't figure out how they couldn't fit a polished NES and SNES game in one cartridge

Up the cost by $5-10 then and include multiple discs/carts. When people buy physical they want physical, and that price increase will not scare away buyers.

The Megaman Legacy Collection on the Switch is split in two. 1-6 is on the Cartridge, but 7-10 was a digital code that you had to download through the Eshop.

In some cases, sure. RE2 ok. Things like Crash? No. Halo anniversary games give an entire new level of textures and cut scenes. But theyre still the same game. Just shinier. TLOUR, GOW3 Remaster didn't even do that. It was just resolution bump.

These are old games. They have been played before. Shiny new coat doesn't change the core of the game.

the crash remaster looked wonderful imo....

but this spyro one looks half the budget. anyone?
