Spyro Trilogy pre-orders way ahead of expectations, trailers have had 10s of millions of views

Nirolak · May 3, 2018

Activision Blizzard just announced this in their fiscal call.

Activision doesn't own that one, so it would have to be someone else.

nib95 · May 3, 2018

Awesome.

Rare should seriously do a Banjo Remake, or a proper new sequel.

Soony Xbone Uhh · May 3, 2018

Trailer views. The new metric!

Shoot.

Phendrift · May 3, 2018

I had to do a double take lmao, I first read this thread as "10 million preorders"

Anyway, great news! Will wait for Switch announcement and get it for that. I didn't try Crash, but for some reason this appeals to me more.

Banjo X needs to come back, such a fun idea for a game

kadotsu · May 3, 2018

Whatever needs to happen to get a new Spyro and Crash game in 2019 and beyond.

Has Bean · May 3, 2018

So happy to hear this. My sister and I preordered immediately after the trailer dropped.

janusff · May 3, 2018

Yeah game is pure hype on my end. Can't wait.

KtotheRoc · May 3, 2018

That's cool. I guess the inevitable Crash and Spyro sequels are happening.

Kouriozan · May 3, 2018

Good, it's great to see the new generation of gamers experience the amazing games we had back then.

Yukinari · May 3, 2018

Nobody cares about Crash or Spyro.

Time to revive Croc baby.

Matticers · May 3, 2018

It's like people are excited for a game they often requested to be made. Crazy. It does pay to listen to the fans.

This was my game as a kid, got to the final world. That platforming got annoying at the end but would love it back.

Sega needs to get on that sonic adventure 1 and 2 remake collection.

Alienhated · May 3, 2018

So, are the unironically loved 90s 3d mascot platformer games to revive pretty much over, now?

bombshell · May 3, 2018

Crash was never a good game... shit, wrong game. Ahem, it's just nostalgia, it will not sell a lot.

TheCrackedJack · May 3, 2018

I guess you could say that demand for the game has begun to Spyro out of control.

VanWinkle · May 3, 2018

Good. Very good.

Those people should have learned after how Crash did.

silva1991 · May 3, 2018

Good to hear.

Adamska · May 3, 2018

I still think it won't do as good as Crash, mainly because I think Spyro isn't as cherished as Crash. That doesn't mean it'll do badly, btw.

Same.

It would help if Sony marketed the game at their E3, but without another exclusivity deal it would be very generous for them to promote this as much as Crash.

2 platforms out of the gate. So maybe?

DriftingSpirit · May 3, 2018

Really glad to hear. Bring more back. We hungry.

There is some method to the madness. I think the upper end of views supports the potential for a game to sell really well.

Good. He's the real PSOne mascot in my heart. He's so cute

Multiverse Moo · May 3, 2018

Wasn't kidding when I told all my friends Spyro was my PSone favorite and I was more excited for this remake / remaster than Crash.

*looks at Banjo Kazooie*

Yes

Locuza · May 3, 2018

I'm looking forward to Spyro, in contrast to Crash I don't think they can "fuck" it up as the Crash Remaster did (physics changes, horrible sound design, worse art/graphic design in certain cases).
I was very disappointed in that one but for Spyro I have a good feeling.

Gedi · May 3, 2018

A work colleague of a few years, who has previously shown no interest in gaming whatsoever is getting a PS4 for her birthday so that she can buy Spyro ("the game of my childhood") for it.

Lmao i remember those clueless posts..

MoonFrog · May 3, 2018

Spyro has a larger hold on me than Crash. Don't know if I'll get it either though. I still have the old discs and all.

The Praiseworthy · May 3, 2018

Hope they handle the franchise to Toys for Bob after this trilogy, as well to handle the Crash Bandicoot franchise to Vicarious Visions.

These two beloved franchises will be in a safe hands by these two developers :-)

Yes

Yeah, that's basically the biggest one left.
I wonder if Microsoft is ever going to bother with it again, or if they just don't believe that the audience for Banjo games is on Xbox.

Anyway, considering the big 90s revival craze that is currently going on, it would be pretty crazy to just sit on big ips like Conker or B&K and do nothing with them.

I read the first line of your post and got angry.

Then I read the second line and you are absolved of all sins, my friend.

Psycho_Mantis · May 3, 2018

Well the most viewed Spyro trilogy trailer has 2.2 million views. Its tracking similar to Crash in that sense but I'm not sure if it will do as well.

hipsterpants · May 3, 2018

Says alot that it's apparently doing this well based off of like 1:30 of footage and 10 screenshots. And we haven't even seen anything from 2 or 3.

Ryutaryi · May 3, 2018

Excellent. Loved Spyro as a kid and love that people are excited for this, myself included.

Necron · May 3, 2018

Time to bring back Gex, Crystal Dynamics!
