I love both but looking back, I played much more Spyro than Crash. Out of the Crash games though, I played a lot of CTR.

Toss up really, but I found Crash to be better, don't know what the sales have to do with anything.

A lot. People might be interested. People might be surprised of their favorite games sales. People might equate sales to quality. People might have newer sales numbers. people will wonder why Crash has not had a new game announced for awhile when Spyro was a less profitable franchise. Allof natures natural questions.

I don't give a shit about what either franchise has done after the PS1. Judging them strictly on their PS1 games I preferred Spyro.

Odd questions then, especially for two franchises that fell off well over a decade ago quality wise. if anything those sales numbers just tell me how two franchises were once great were eventually milked and gutted until the well went dry and it's unfortunate because we the consumer are the blame, we keep buying their crap and in turn they keep giving us crap.

How are you getting that? From what I am seeing, at least from the Crash side, is that after Bash, Crash interest went back up, and then back down, but then back up. Spyro went down and only came back due to putting his name in a game were, to be honest, should I even include as a Spyro game?

I never could get into the Crash games on the PS1, i loved the first 3 Spyro's though.

However on the PS2 i hated all the Spyro games (because of the new developers messing it up) and i enjoy Crash Tag Team Racing.

When I look at the trilogy I give it to Spyro just but Crash 3 and CTR are probably better.

I recently completed the first 3 spyro games and before I had only played the first so nostalgia was pretty much irrelevant and I enjoyed them so much. I only played a bit of crash back in the day and I didn't like it but I'm gonna try and play the first one soon.
