around 4 years ago was around 2010. end of 2009 and through 2010 was when Activision abandoned the rest of its franchises to focus on one (and soon two) franchises that sold AAA.
Now according to this, Tony Hawk has a new game coming out. This may be the fact that Activision is a solo company and needs more than two franchises to remain relevant nowadays. Especially in its current situation.
Now, the last Crash game was also in 2010. This could mean that Crash Bandicoot will be releasing a new game next. Since 2010 the Crash Bandicoot franchise had sold over 40 million total, and while it was dead, although with games still being able to be brought on the market place on consoles and ios, managed to sell another 10 million units in just 2 years since the end of 2012 saw a bunch of sources saying the the Crash series sold over 50 million units world wide. Maybe because of fan desperation to get the franchise back or something. So the thirst is there.
This could be the first step, soon we might get real Spyro games, another True Crime, and other franchises Activision has not touched forever.
What do you think?
