With Activision sending out teasers in the form of puzzle pieces related to the Crash Bandicoot series recently, it was only a matter of time before the cat, or rather, bandicoot was out of the bag. The Taiwanese Ratings Board has just confirmed that a new Crash Bandicoot game is on the way, thanks to a listing that went live perhaps a little too early. The listing even includes official boxart for the game, which is titled Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, which will be releasing on both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, with the latter stating that it'll be playable on the Xbox Series X. You can read the official description, below. Developer Toys For Bob, who worked on both the Spyro and Crash remasters, are on board for this project.

Crash is relaxing and exploring his island in his time, 1998, when he finds a mysterious mask hidden away in a cave, Lani-Loli. The mask is one of the Quantum Masks and apparently knows Aku-Aku, Crash’s mask friend! With the Quantum Masks returning and a Quantum Rift appearing near our heroes, they decide to bravely head through to different times and dimensions to stop whoever is responsible.

Nice! Maybe they present some of the other characters (as Crunch) in this game and make a new canon.
Also even if they don't say in the PS4 box it's compatible with PS5, didn't some developers said that Sony make them use the latest versions of the dev kits and libraries to make sure the las ps4 games are fully compatible with ps5? Maybe it's just that Microsoft wanna put that string in any new art for One, but Sony didn't ask for it in their boxes...

Crash for Smash! Even if the game isn't coming to Switch, could still be good cross-promotion.

Oh, if only you knew how much of a cesspool has formed over Crash getting in to Smash Ultimate over at SmashFAQs while r/Kappa enjoys the show from their digital pullup chairs while also eating virtual popcorn...

I wonder how game companies feel when their product gets leaked early?

Either being good publicity and hype for the title or complete shock when they would want it announced at a big hitting show or website.

They'll release a PS5 "remastered" or "UHD" version, you know it :ph34r:

“Sony has told PlayStation 4 developers that future games for the system must also be compatible with its upcoming next-gen console, the PlayStation 5. All games received for testing and certification by Sony for the PS4 after July 13 have to be forwards compatible, as per developer”

I wonder if it's going to be like Sonic Generations where Crash meets up with his mid 2000's incarnations and wonder what happened along the way.

I dont see a PS5 version :ninja:

I see no reason why the PS4 version won't play on the PS5. Sony did say the overwhelming majority of the 4,000+ PS4 titles will be compatible. They also stated that every PS4 game after July 13th is required to be able to run on the PS5 from the get go.

What if I'm selling my PS4 Pro to help fund a PS5 shortly before the PS5 is released? What would I play it on then? Or all of my other PS4 games for that matter. The only reason to keep a PS4 would be if you want to hook it up in a different room. Then you could also play all of your PS4 games in both rooms. Or... you know... maybe some people never had a PS4 but they're getting a PS5.

A better question is why would you not play a PS4 game on a PS5?
I see your point, but i wont play anything that is not a ps5 game on a ps5. No remakes, not that bs and just ps5 originals.
Also i wont sell any of my consoles to get the next one, i respect your point or anything you like it or need to do in order to get your next console.

lol you are entlitled to do what you want and we are also entitle to do what we want, by not playing if playing ps4 games on ps5 get them enhanced why not? i never bough ps4 pro so getting the ps5 to play 4k enhanced ps4 games like it was on the pro is great for me, same way i got a phat ps3 it plays all ps1,ps2 and ps3 games, why would i dig out my ps1 and ps2 from the closet when i can use ps3 bt controllers, emulated memory cards and hd and smooth enhanced? sometimes is much better to play older games on updated consoles.

    @BigOnYa I had 4.89 hfw on super slim that was great, but when I got a new hard disk I forgot where the guide was and could only find a guide for 4.90 and its resources
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa I think another reason to want to update is if the hfw is at the level of the fw
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    you can sync trophies

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.
