After having killed Gex, Crash Bandicoot began developing dementia. Sure, he was financially secure since it was Sonic who was the one who put out the hit but Crash wasn't prepared to live with the guilt associated with the deed he was paid to commit. Crash began taking on side-kicks and the like to draw attention away from his slowly deteriorating mental state. Crash hasn't been seen in about 2 years and it is feared he has passed away.
He isn't dead, he's hiding. Waiting. He will rise again after he is nearly forgotten, when we have long given up hope for him.
When rumours swirl that he is attempting a return, his fans will ignite a frenzy. Chaos will suddenly rule the gaming news industry.

And at last, when he steps back into the light after years of hiding away, he will take a bold step... and stumble, fall, and break his neck. It will be so pathetic that even Sonic will laugh. And *that* will be the end of Crash.
As the creator of this thread,I give you the Most Epic Response Joke award! Congrats

I believe you two have won this thread. Congratulations, have some cookies!
What kind of cookies do you have? I can be quite picky when it comes to cookies.
I'm sure we can kidnap some girl scouts to bake you just about anything ya want.

When you look at what Naughty Dog has gone on to do (Uncharted, the Jax and Daxter series), the change in developer is what killed the franchise, I'm not complaining though, because I have all three J&D games and Uncharted 2 to help me get over the loss of Crash.
man, naughty dog is probably the most progressive of all the game developers i know. from simple, story-free 3d platforming to dark and engrossing dystopian 3-d platformer, to epic globe-trotting explosive adventuring, they're just so good! i'm sure if they continued crash like insomniac continued ratchet, they could have made something wonderful.

The once and future Crash? I believe I am expecting a visit from Hipsterus Douchebaggius to claim that the fact that his name is Crash is ironic in conjunction with his forseen demise. Want to grab a bat and wait?

It's rather obvious, really. Naughty Dog sold it to work on Jak and Daxter. The next studios to take it on ruined it. Simple, really.

I've only played the second one as a wee lad. I body slammed the polar bear over and over again. Imagine my surprise when I got ten lives from it :)

I miss it. I want it back. Damn you Naughty Dog!
We tried to teach my dad how to play. Huuuuuge mistake. First level, he kept trying to bodyslam the armadillo and lost over 50 lives, which my brother and I had painstakingly collected at our tender ages of 7 and 4. Yes, I was 4 and I could play it better than he could, and he was in his late thirties.
God, I'm nostalgia-ing so hard right now... [/daydream]

I think you summed it up in that sentence. Characters like Crash just don't really have the personality to survive these days. Times have changed. Strap some power armour on him and set it in space and maybe it'll sell lol
Hahaha. So true. xD

Man... those Crash Bandicoot games bring back memories. Good times.

Naughty Dog stopped working on the series, it was given to people who just wanted to milk the franchise without any real care over quality.
Though it seems the last one sucked so badly they finally decided to let Crash retire.

I picture him on a beach somewhere, sipping Martinis and chumming with Spyro, who also seems to have retired now, after the Legend of Spyro series.
Yeah that's pretty much it. I just wish SEGA would get the hint and send Sonic to that beach. I hear they have a chili dog stand and everything.

Sorry, but you two have failed this thread big time. Ratchet hasn't gone anywhere. He's been in three new games for the Playstation 3, all made by Insomniac and all fantastic. And a fourth is coming soon. Look up:
Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
Ratchet and Clank Future: Quest for Booty
Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time
Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One

I will now need to confiscate all of the cookies the two of you have. Sorry. Actually no I'm not. You two messed up and I get to steal your cookies. Yay for me.

Better question...what the hell happened to Jak and Daxter!? Just when you think Jak 3 ends the series, they come out with Jak X, AND BOTH OF THOSE WERE LEFT OPEN TO A SEQUEL!!! If that's not a tease, I dunno what is. And now, if I do ever hear any mention of the series, it's almost like a footnote. Otherwise, it might as well have never existed...

Damn you Naughty Dog, for punishing my nostalgia.

There's plenty of room for light-hearted fare, but the big problem is they have to be good. If they're not good, adults (except for the most nostalgia driven ones) aren't going to bother with them and kids will only play them if they're good (you can't cruise on nostalgia when your target demographic has no notion of nostalgia). Mario continues to do well because he's usually attached to a good game (and when you consider how often they stick Mario's name on any game from any genre, that's saying a lot). The Lego series of games have been of consistently good quality. The Pokemon games are supposed to also be quite good... if that's the sort of thing you like.

But a franchise that tries to skimp on quality and ride the reputation on a kid's oriented franchise is going to kill it very quickly.

You see, Crash retired to a tropical island with Spyro and Gex and they all live the good life. Mario's still going strong, but he visits once in a while to help stock up their alcohol supply and give them the latest DvD releases. Solid Snake recently moved in next door, and often catches up with them on weekends for a drink and to reminisce about "The good old days"..And then all of them go and mock Sonic for his failures every First Sunday of the Month.

A series of good but overrated third person shooter games called Uncharted. Sony makes way too much money off those, why would they have Naughty Dog make a new Jak and Daxter game when they could just have them pump out another Uncharted?

Crash met the same end as Spyro and Sonic. Worked to death then discarded. Though I would love someone to revisit the series I doubt it will ever happen.
