So now that the Crash remake is out, when can we expect the same

Hopefully never.

This. We don't need another rape and murder.

>>4086756
I could see that happening, especially if the Crash remake sells well. Spyro is the kind of game that could benefit from having an alternative, more modern control scheme too, unlike Crash. I think it'd be a good idea as long as they don't fuck up the art style and try to import the shitty Skylander's Spyro character design into the game.

I don't think even Activision would sink that low.

No.
It was unnecessary even for Crash. The original games weren't anything special, but they weren't bad and there's nothing to improve on them.

OK underage

>>4086756
I sincerely hope the same animators don' work on the remake. I do not like what they did with Crash's animations and really wish they got some actual professionals in. The Ratchet and Clank remake looks so much better than that crap.

What genre Crash pioneered?

Does anybody else think these PS1 remakes tend to have uglier, more sterile-looking graphics? The lighting, especially. I've felt this for both the crash remakes and Oddworld New n Tasty, both were games that didn't really need remakes and all the remakes have really accomplished is to make the visuals look more bland. Pic related, rupture farms is lit up like a doctor's office in the remake and doesn't have the same dirty, grotty atmosphere as the original.

That's called modern games.

Another pic related. The sewer in the remake looks like it was built last week. Everything looks really clean and it's missing the details, like the pipes leaking.

I'll say the same thing I said in an old Spyro general. Spyro is the type of game that would benefit from something a bit more ambitious than a remaster like N Sane Trilogy is.
It's not that Spyro games are worse than Crash games (quite the contrary), rather their formula is a bit more complex than Crash's classical platforming. Spyro games are more about exploring and finding things than pure skill like Crash, so a 1:1 remaster wouldn't have much of a point for those who already played the games since they already know the level maps.
Adding to that, Spyro games suffered technology limits more than Crash games because of their vast open levels.

So I think a Spyro remake should shuffle things, a bit more so than what N Sane Trilogy did (example: improving Spyro 1 bosses and adding scrapped content), while staying true to the original games. At least for Spyro 1-3: they might as well de-canonize Enter the Dragonfly and A Hero's Tail since those slandered the characters, and start with new games. They could mix Insomniac influences with ETD/AHT and maybe stuff from The Legend of Spyro.

See this what I don't want to see happen. I hope for a slightly better art direction, and especially better music. Ruining Copeland's music would warrant death penalty.

Except there's literally nothing wrong with the controls in Spyro.

Look up Temple Run for Android. That genre.

Donkey Kong Country with a z axis is not a genre. Furthermore, There's no "endless running" in Crash.

I have actually had this reaction to shit more times than I would have ever thought possible when I was younger.

>>4088794
You're right.

I guess Crash didn't help pioneer any genre, in that case.

>>4086756
Spyro looks pretty good though with hefty patches and maxed out graphics on the PSX emulator though.

Hopefully soon. The original Spyro trilogy is ripe for remaster-plussing.

>>4088801

Resident. Fucking. Evil.

No one would say that the Gamecube version doesn't live up to the PS1/Saturn version.

I might explode if it happens.

given it's random nature, music would be a bitch to remaster, though.

For sure. Too often jerks these days think all they have to do is model a thing, texture it lightly, and have the shaders do the rest of the work. It's fucking stupid.

I mean, I'm no expert in graphics, the best I can do is open Photoshop and give someone funny coloured hair. And some levels in N Sane Trilogy are pretty good, like the Future levels in Warped. But Crash could work because it leans on real life (woods, temples, castles, space stations, etc). But so much stuff in Spyro is so fucking abstract, because Spyro is meant to be dream-like, especially Spyro 1. You need someone seriously skilled with that type of art for it to be translated well in HD. I've seen some Spyro remake projects, they're very well made, but they look a bit too realistic for my tastes. Spyro should be weird and abstract, the world is literally a different dimension from ours. You can't take pic related, make realisitc mountains and except it to work like the original game did.

>textures fading at a distance
>skybox is colored polys rather than a texture

You're right, lots of cool techniques, difficult to translate into modern graphics.

>>4090569
You can say things turned out that way because of limited technology, but those somewhat unorthodox solutions gave (perhaps unintentionally) the games their unique visual style.
