I would be so happy to see the Spyro PS1 trilogy get a similar treatment to the N Sane Trilogy.
I'd also like a remastered CTR with online multiplayer while we're at it, but I'll be happy with either.
Any other franchises? A Vigilante 8 revival perhaps?
Oh hey, Activision published Soldier of Fortune.
Remakes please? And for the love of fuck, get Raven Soft back on it and not Cauldron.

The question is, do they go even further with the gore to keep its reputation intact or do they leave it how it is and, while still being more bloody than most other games, not exactly be over the top for what they could do in 2017?

I really hope it's over the top to keep the reputation
Do we know what strings they're pulling with other companies? Might be seeing a Spyro Remaster? More Legacy of Kain? Syphon Filter: We're not Metal Gear?

right now I'm just hoping for a PC release of the N.Sane trilogy, but CTR and Spyro trilogy, also on the PC, would be day 1 purchase for me.
Now they gotta work on Gex.

The problem is that something like this wasn't an issue for Crash because it had more of a childhood nostalgia factor and all anyone wanted was a faithful remaster with maybe QoL enhancements. Something like overdoing the gore because that's what the games are mainly known for is a subject that I would imagine is going to be a bit divisive.
Pls do a Spyro trilogy reboot so that his fate isn't limited to Skylanders

Soldier of Fortune, well...
There's a problem. It's not Activision's IP. They were licensed games for a gun enthusiast magazine, of the name... Soldier of Fortune. The circumstances surrounding Payback are the same ones behind Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5.

Frogger should leap onto the PS4. :v:
Oh goody, their next Pitfall sequel will probably be the 'classic' collect everything in 20 minutes format of the original.
