Ok, great stuff from the panel!

First of all a short glimpse at Dark Hollow’s theme, this time sounding a lot more final than the background one (which was probably the toned down dynamic version).

Some clearer looks at the previously leaked blurry footage revealed the fully working Powerup Gates, which look amazing compared to the one shown in Idol Springs and possibly teases different colors for the various powerups.
Also some minor things, like the small brown lizards from Glimmer or the red dreesed women in Cliff Town.
Also yet a better look at Artisans, absolutely flawless.

The talk about music was really great and I loved how Copeland sounded waaay more opened to changes than some hardcore fans: if the original creators are satisfied and approve all the various enhancements then I think we shoudn’t worry about the final product.

Needless to say, watching the panel only made the wait much harder; hurry up, September!

While I would have been really curious to see that prototype model in action (and wouldn’t honestly be surprised if they sneaked it in as an unlockable skin, perphaps for completing all three games), I have to say I now appreaciate Spyro’s updated look even more now.

I think the fact TfB decided to change him up a bit might even be more important than we think: this model might be retained for quite a few new games from now on, so I think they might have wanted it to look good both in the old titles and the future ones, to create some kind of continuity.
I get the more heroic and fierce look they were going for, but I do strongly feel like this isn’t only the reignited Spyro, but the new age one.
It’s also possible they felt like they could tweak it without making it feel too different, which might not have been true for Crash.

Noticed the balloons as well, though I’m not sure if they are meant to represent the birds, an inflated glove or just a comically angry face.
Lofty Castle’s stones also look pinkier, another level which just keeps getting better every time we get to see it in action.

Yes, he is completely different, but I really like it! I think he looks like Flynn from Skylanders a little! And I adore the stitching on his clothes and gem bag!
What a smug asshole. It's going to be fun chasing him around Midnight Mountain.

One thing I think I miss with these new designs is that they lack an iris. It's not too bad, but I do miss seeing each character's eye colour.

What does the box cover mean by REQUIRES CONTENT DOWNLOADED? Could the remake of the trilogy be too big for one disc?

*BRICK'D*

For serious, though, I really love his muzzle? Like, they found a way to take the general carved out shape of an actual bear's muzzle and tweak it to look perfect in a cartoony setting?

I dunno why THAT specifically jumps out at me, but it does and I love it 8'D

I highly doubt that, Crash on Switch had all 3 games already installed when you first launch the game. And as for Spyro on Switch, we all know it's coming, we just don't know when it'll be revealed

Translation: If you buy the game and want to play 2 and/or 3, you're ****ed.

Regardless, Switch would require downloads because Nintendo limited their storage space for whatever reason. (Hence why games like Bayonetta 1 + 2 and Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 + 2 require half of their respective content to be downloaded.

PC would probably just be one big download in general, I'd imagine, since you need internet to be able to get it in the first place.



Is this the general norm for some games for all systems in general? I haven't noticed it much.

Speaking of which, you bring up Bayonetta, when we get Spyro on Switch, do you think that 2-3 will download into RT as DLC, or will they be their own games (essentially) on the Switch Menu? Bayonetta 1 counts as a separate game from Bayo 2 although I'm not 100% sure, i believe that's the case.

I'm not really sure what you mean by delisting? When you boot up Crash Nsane for the first time on PS4, you can play the first game in full right away, but it takes a bit to download the data for the other 2 games, just cause there's way too much data to fit on one disc.

I'm also bothered by the cropping on the game boxart. When the boxart first got show, I had a feeling it wouldn't crop well... Nsane Trilogy's boxart is so much better.

The final cover art is... fine. I agree with you on this one, Bolt! With what it had to work with, you'd think the cropping would be a little bit better. (Also: do we really need that "3 games" thing?)

2/3 of the game being locked behind a download is sooo disappointing. It kinda defeats the point of a physical copy, y'know? And now, I'm getting images of SpyroRT on Switch having one of those nightmarish banners on the cover!

Hm, if it's the same case as Crash it's not as big of a worry, but give it more than a decade and it'll be a concern if the other games will be playable through legal ways once the console is abandoned.

I'm not sure if I understand what you're asking?

As for the second question, they more than likely will take up only 1 spot on the menu. Bayonetta is a bit different in that regard, however.



Like, is it more common for games to require Day 1 downloads nowadays? I know they're common, but I guess I didn't know how common it actually was.

I cancelled my Amazon preorder so I could get the GAME preorder bonuses. I wonder if the art cards will be different in each pack or if they'll just be the ones pictured. If it's the latter, then it's oddly specific that they're of Hunter, Gnasty and Shemp. If it turns out to be the former, then maybe we'd be able to buy more packs to collect them all.

Unlike the Crash trilogy, Spyro's is a lot more diverse with many open levels that hardly feel samey as well as the various types of enemies in each game. I only hope that Spyro comes to the Nintendo Switch in 2019, when Nintendo delivers 64GB cartridges so Toys for Bob could cram in the entire trilogy with some visual compromise without looking like ass.

According to Activision’s comment, this isn’t a different situation from any Day One patch we usually get:

http://www.playstationlifestyl...impression=true

I get not agreeing with the idea itself, I frankly don’t either for the most, but if that’s really what it means then I don’t get the overreacting.
I saw people cancelling their preorders for this.
I don’t think the same happened with Crash.

I’m ok with an automatically downloaded patch and possibly the two and third game requiring a separated download time like for the N. Sane Trilogy, I’ll be playing the first while they install.

So apparently it's not the same thing as Crash, cause Crash just needs to install the 2 games, which are already on the disc, whereas with Spyro only 1 is on the disc, and the other two need to be downloaded from the servers. So 2 and 3 don't actually really exist physically (yet).

With that explanation I now get why people are feeling iffy, but I can't imagine there's going to be a large number of people encountering a problem that would lock them out of being able to play 2/3. Like, I've had my PS2 for over 10 years and it still works like a charm. And even if servers do go down 10 years down the line or something, I feel like by then there'd be a version of the game that does have everything included on the disc/cartridge. Or they'd do a re-release.

Having to repurchase would kinda suck, but I think it's overreacting to say it's going to be like a P.T. situation where the game basically goes extinct. P.T. only disappeared cause it was a trailer for a game that ended up getting cancelled.

#3537 Posted: 23:11:31 01/08/2018
My biggest concern is the archival of physical media because I can't see the internet age sustained in its current form depending on what happens. I only wonder now if Sony and Microsoft are still gonna go for physical discs if not cartridges and instead embrace digital streaming. If they go for the former, maybe choose the one that has the most gigabytes, just in case all publishers decide to remaster current gen titles for future platforms.
