If any code from the PS1 games even remain which I doubt. Don't forget Lex Lang teased about voicing Cortex again (could be for Skylanders mind you, and Jess Harnell is back also in it as Crash), that's a redone/remake/whatever.

A new crash game will totally be miltiplat but I cant see this remaster simply because of the weird legal mess between Sony / Naughty Dog and Activsion it probably is.
Also this!
Say what you will about how the PS1 platformers have aged but CTR is still great today

What does "from the ground up" mean then?

Probably remaking the game in a completely new engine to keep up with modern standards.
It kinda is sorry about that

Yup. I don't think it'll be like a crazy remake but I also don't think they'll be slapping PS1 assets out either.
My body is ready.

We know nothing of the quality. Some people can't even be like "well, let's wait and see". It's like, you gotta immediately hit 11 with this shit.

I said it when it was announced and i will say it again i feel like this is testing the waters with Activision/Sony to see if there actually is a market for a new Crash game because twitter hashtags and video game forums don't sell games and if this collection does well you can bet your sweet ass they will invest in a new Crash.
As for people asking what does the remaster mean he said "it's being made from the ground up" which means it isn't a smoother textured Crash and i don't know if people remember crash games but they weren't these vast open worlds, they can fit 3 of them on a blu-ray. We are lucky we are getting this collection to begin with people wanting Activision/Sony to shell out all this money for a brand new re-imagined Crash game because some people on Neogaf and twitter wanted it was just absurd thinking and if the game sells like shit i guess the market didn't want a Crash game to begin with.

The announcement of the remasters says PlayStation 4, and only PlayStation 4. Come on, that must be for a reason. It's spelled out as exclusive.
Not sure why you're arguing this.

Hopefully Sony makes a new game down the road and this is just to hold people over.
He said remastering. Damn a ton of people are in for massive disappointment.

Sony Interactive Entertainment Japan.
They changed all the names at the beginning of the year.

That's kinda awesome. Could have been a lot worse, is there any footage of the remastered stuff?
Not yet I bet we see stuff at PSX.

They should have announced it then. Even if it's not coming soon.
Honestly I cant wait for it. I would like to be proven wrong, but I expect massive salt levels when it's shown. Sony needs to clarify this asap.
You can?
I don't know who Dragon Punch is, but... hype?

Give me the PS4 store link, I need em quickly.
The people who just want Crash 1-3 updated on PS4 won't be. Sony's not just going to copy/paste those games onto the PSN store and call it a day. They did that already with the "classics" versions on PS3. I'm willing to bet that the collection will look and play just fine.

Wow. It's either pure vitriol or pure hyperbole in this thread, I can't tell the difference anymore, but some of these posts...

I don't think there's any way to know this outside of well it's Activision (if they are even making it?). We don't really know what they mean since we haven't really had a PS1 remaster due to this inherent problem which lead to the recent Resident Evil remake, which was called a "remaster". Even Metal Gear Solid skipped MGS1 for this reason.
I think there's more of a middle ground of excitement we can keep (maybe I'm being too optimistic!), though you're right it pays not to expect it to be too crazy just in case ofcourse.

After playing Ratchet & Clank, I am ready for something like this. My brain forgot everything about R & C so it was like a whole new game. Young people will like these games. They need clean up the graphics and saving system but a new generation will love them and there is nothing else like it out there lately.
Talking psclassics here. If not ps4 then ps3 or Vita.
Again if we're going by the definition of remaster from everything we've ever seen in gaming, then yes you're getting the same game with better resolution and maybe some higher res textures. This is trash and if it's not that than at the very least Sony has handled the problem incredibly poor.

Son, you're completely overreacting.
Nonono that was not a "remaster" of re1 for ps1 that was a "remaster" of the GameCube "remake" which is an entirely different thing.
Oh, so you can't play Crash on PS4 then?
Remaster bashing is played out. If people want the same games - and I do - then more power to them, if you're mad then that's on you. Also they're not going to do it like the PS2 games, it's probably much more akin to Oddworld which was ground up.
How does this work then? That would mean that crash game would be completely exclusive.
