strange considering they brought Crash over. No way the system can't handle this series. So with Activision being as money hungry as they are I am very surprised they didn't put it on Switch.

Atom6662419d ago

Between the delay and the day-one download problems, I think it's safe to say that there are deadline issues with this game. If they had to temporarily hold off on one version, Switch and its cartridges probably makes sense.

I'll personally wait and see if it does come to NS. This would be too perfect in handheld mode.

Shiken2419d ago

Bigger games have come to Switch...

EddieNX 2419d ago

They have nothing to a bounce at this time, but you can almost guarantee they will announce it at a later time.

I'd bet a grand it comes lol.

Segata2419d ago

Crash was never planned for Switch. One of the programmers for fun on his own time tried to see if the game would run on the switch and he did in a short amount of time and he took it to his superiors and they gave the ok to port the thing to Switch. If not for that Crash never would have been on it. Activision is worse than EA. They really just don't want to support it at all.

It’ll likely happen next year

No reason not to

Shiken2419d ago (Edited 2419d ago )

Nintendo might want them to keep quiet for a Direct reveal. Would not be the first time.

After Crash though, it should have been day and date TBH.

Profchaos2419d ago

Probably deadline issues im sure a port will happen in 12 months or so.
Only issues I can possibly think of would be game size limitations but lower resolution textures should bring the size down significantly

Samonuske2419d ago

Probably the fact they would have to be able to fit all 3 games on a single cartridge and can’t get away with huge patches/downloads like they can on the PS4/Xbox1

Nothing but joy and excellency for us on Gamepass!

Top of the line remake from 2018 you could have picked up for under 5 bucks.

I'm serious though games awesome and was a highlight in a very packed year but let's not overstate it's value 6 years on.

Lightning77228d ago

I wonder why they're doing slow roll out of ABK stuff? It's been a year I wonder why the slow roll out.

Fishy Fingers228d ago

I'm sure it'll slowly get added. Its constant content they can add and I imagine in the hopes it will get people to maintain their sub. Drop it all in one chunk might boost numbers for a bit but unlikely to keep people long term.

Lightning77228d ago

Similar to Bethesda stuff. They release the full slate on GP and I guess it didn't do as well for them. I'm hoping they're remastering the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games as well as others.

InUrFoxHole228d ago

Never played the series. Gonna give it a go. GP is a great service.

The_Hooligan227d ago

I played the original trilogy on my cousin's PS1 back in the day and they were amazing games. I picked up the remake last year when it was on sale on PSN but haven't gone back yet. But if this is your first time playing it, you will have a great time.

InUrFoxHole226d ago

Jesus. I remember the ps1. I remember being baffled by how something so powerful could fit in that little console lol

DivineHand125228d ago (Edited 228d ago )

Good for persons who are subscribed to the game pass, but will it be 30 fps, or is it getting a boost?

I bought the game on PS4 but stopped because the game offered little to no challenge. I dropped it and picked it up again on PS5 a few months ago. That was when I realized that it was locked to 30 fps and uninstalled it.

It would be great if Microsoft could find some way to release an update to set both Spyro and Crash Team racing to 60 fps and beyond.

Profchaos228d ago (Edited 228d ago )

It seems unlikely that it would get further enhancements at this stage a 2018 release that was already enhanced for the one X native 4k from memory. Also the animation work and motion blur used did slot to make the 30fos gameplay feel responsive and smooth to its credit compared to other 30fps games with significantly worse input lag like yooka laylee which iirc on PS4 pro felt horrible to play with a control delay vs the PC which felt snappy.

If you stopped because of the lack of challenge I don't think 60 will suddenly change the way you play it games extremely simple and was built around a early 3d exploration framework that targeted families so difficulty was quite low

Hasn't this been on gamepass for a while now

*Sigh*

Sometimes it's hard being a Spyro fan. Yeah, i really really really want Spyro 4. Crash Bandicoot got a 4th one, its only fair.

MWH972d ago

Nothing is guaranteed in this life, so don't wait on anything.

This is what happens when Toys For Bob gets pushed to help develop COD
