E3 2017: Why Coco Is In Crash Bandicoot Trilogy

E3 2017: Why Coco Is In Crash Bandicoot Trilogy

, 0

So Crash Bandicoot is making a return to games via a compilation/remaster of his first three titles in Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. But the twist is that Crash’s sister Coco will be a playable character in all three games. Which is a bit weird for some, as she wasn’t in/created until later in the trilogy. So, why is she in? Answer? Time Travel. “Time travel solves everything,” Massie joked to IGN. “So, [we have] the save/load screen. She’s hacking in with her pink laptop and you see shots of the first two games [appear]. There is a similar interaction point in all three hubs of all three games.” Basically, in Crash Bandicoot: Warped, time travel was introduced, and so the team used that to bring in Coco for the trilogy. More than that though, the team really wanted her to be a fully-fledged character in the game. “The team wanted to [include Coco] right from early stages of production,” Massie said. “Animators, character designers came to me and said

If a new Crash Bandicoot game were to happen, it would still have to be done through Activision (via VideoGamer). A representative of Sony PlayStation confirmed in a response to a fan on Twitter that the Crash Bandicoot series is still owned and controlled by the game publisher Activision. The tweet was made by VP of Publisher Relations at Sony PlayStation, Adam Boyes, which you can check out below. This is despite the fact that the classic Sony PlayStation mascot and video game character has a special Easter egg appearance in an upcoming video game due out this week from Naughty Dog. However, despite this, it doesn’t appear a new Crash Bandicoot game is in the works anytime soon. The last Crash Bandicoot game was Crash Bandicoot Nitro kart 2, which was released in 2010. There have been rumors and teases of a comeback for the Crash Bandicoot franchise for quite some time. For example, last February, PlayStaiton Middle East released a tweet with a wanted poster of Crash. The

Over the weekend a piece of animation depicting a deranged version of Crash Bandicoot appeared on Youtube and went viral. The short sequence tells the origin of Crash in song, using the unmistakable pipes of Jim Cummings who, in typical 90’s fourth-wall bashing, ends the tune by begging kids to buy the game. Original speculation was that it was meant to be a pilot for a Crash Bandicoot animated series, but that has now been proven false by the original uploader: David Siller, who was a producer on the original game. What you’re really seeing here is the prototype for the FMV sequence that would have played every time you loaded the game up (or hit the X button to skip it). This reel also includes the ending scene, which was originally planned to appear in animated form as well. This was created at an early stage of development by Universal, so the resemblances in tone to the Earthworm Jim cartoon are no coincidence (though Siller also mentions Animaniacs was
