Yep, Crash's appearance in the PS4 Launch trailer really got a lot of people excited (even myself to be honest) And then word came that Sony were gonna announce the return of a new franchise at the launch event for the PS4. And alas it did not. Now before you guys get mad and contemplate suicide by crappy DS party game, do take in mind that this doesn't mean Crash won't get his day in the sun eventually.
About every element in the trailer are parts of games that have been confirmed for the PS4 and, or next gen-systems. Heck even Parappa appeared in it-
Now while I'm not saying this means that he'll be returning soon, it still is interesting. If Crash (and Parappa) Aren't meant to get new games on the PS4, why are they in this commercial that is meant to contain elements and characters that are gonna be seen in games for the system?
Sure it may be an easter egg, but why in this? Even on websites and officials from SCE have noted that this trailer is entirely dedicated to characters in PS4 games. If this is just an easter egg in homage to there very first unofficial mascot, it is pretty stupid to do it, with out foreseeing the over excitement from fans. However, this has gotten quite the attention from people, even during the live-stream for the PS4 launch, quite a few of the comments in the comment box were about Crash being in the commercial, and a little bit of speculation regarding a new game. If this was merely just a homage, Sony would respond putting the rumors to rest.
What ever this is meant to be, it is still nice to see Sony cares about him.
So remember don't just rely on this, and only bugging Sony. Also remember to pay attention to Crash's current owner.
I want to be positive about this. Really I do, I hope something good comes of this, but I ain't holding my breath.
