Original story:
At its PlayStation Experience press conference, Sony has shown off and titled the Crash Bandicoot collection for the PS4, and it’s called Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy.
As one can expect, it’s a remake of the three Crash Bandicoot games that were released on the original PlayStation years and years ago. The official video description states:
Your favorite marsupial, Crash Bandicoot®, is back! He’s enhanced, entranced & ready-to-dance with the N. Sane Trilogy game collection. Now you can experience Crash Bandicoot like never-before in Fur-K. Spin, jump, wump and repeat as you take on the epic challenges and adventures through the three games that started it all, Crash Bandicoot®, Crash Bandicoot® 2: Cortex Strikes Back and Crash Bandicoot®: Warped. Relive all your favorite Crash moments in their fully-remastered HD graphical glory and get ready to put some UMPH in your WUMP!
If you’ve played those games before, prepare for a nostalgia trip! For those who haven’t, let’s hope the gameplay holds up. If it does, then platform fans will be in for a treat.
