Video Games

Andy Gavin you (and Jason Rubin) are truly legends! Playing the Crash games as a kid, I had no idea how revolutionary they were to the gaming industry. I feel like I owe a lot to crash for not only being the first game character I loved but also giving the gaming industry a boost, and an incentive to step up their performance. Crash is such an important figure to me, and I do hope one day that gaming trends will shift somewhere back to those colorful, cartoony, exciting worlds that Crash Bandicoot gave to us, despite the fact I still love gritty/dark games. I also hope that some day, i don’t care when, Crash will return, and when he does, he’ll give us something great and wonderful to play, perhaps not as good as the originals, but surely better than what we’ve been given today.

Also, as for your other video game articles, I’ve read them all and they are very interesting! Thanks for taking the time to blog these for us! 
Also, I was wondering… do you personally think a re-make of the original crash bandicoot would be cool if done right? As in, if characters were given back their original designs and the linear/platforming system of gameplay was restored? I know free-romp is much more popular now but I personally prefer platformers, and I feel like they should still be around. At times it feels like we’re being given the same games over and over again, at least to me. :/
Sorry for ranting! You have just been such an inspiration on my future career choice, and these articles have really gotten me interested!
