Rumor: Crash Bandicoot Appears In Playstation All-Stars Leak?

We may still be reeling from the big Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale leak from last week, but that hasn't stopped people from thinking there is still fun to be had with possible new character leaks for the highly anticipated Playstation brawler. Case in point, an image has been making the rounds on the official Playstation forums showing none other than Crash Bandicoot as a character in the game.

[smashcrashbash]

Hmmmmmmmm..... Not sure. I thought the leaks about character roster and stages were fake too but it turned out that they seem to be real after all. So won't jump to say no or yes. Just cross my fingers and pray to the gaming Gods for a yes. If this is true I take back most of the mean things I have said about you Activision.

[Nimblest-Assassin]

looks fake too me, sadly

[SilentNegotiator]

Definitely. And I doubt Activision would have reasonable terms to let Sony use an old PS character that they would obviously want to include.

[Nitrowolf2]

the #1 giveaway that this may be a fake is the super. It is not glowing yet he has it.

Others have pointed out that he's not in the same plane as Fat Princess.

[MaxXAttaxX]

Just found this

Fake :/

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

Looks fake to me, but like you said all we can do is pray that it is true!

[TheLastGuardian]

If you look at the "who do you want in the game" comments on the official PSASBR website, it appears that Crash Bandicoot is the top requested character. I know I want Crash in the games more than any other character and I've let Superbot know on Twitter. This game just wouldn't be complete without Crash. I'm sure Sony and Activision can work something out.

[iWishTifaWasReal]

CRASH, SPYRO, TOMBA, BOMBERMAN

"IF" those 4 are in the game, I AM SOLD (Tomba is highly unlikely tho but u never know)

AND ANY Final Fantasy characters *cough i want Zack Fair and Tifa :D would be super awesome as well

[blumatt]

Tomba was such a cool unique game back in the day. I only had a demo of it but I used to play it over and over. Probably 15 times. LoL

I'd like to find it on disc and play it through on my PS3.

I can't wait for this game. I loved SSB on N64. It'll be interesting to play Sony's version. They have an unlimited supply of characters they can use. The DLC for this game will be extensive.

[NyGiants7]

YES! Zack/Cloud would be great. Also throw in Lara Croft and Snake.

[Clown13]

@ Blumatt

I'm pretty sure Tomba is on the PSN Store.

[pedo_across-the-road]

It's real look at the picture and you can see Crash has a shadow.

[MaxXAttaxX]

The shadow could be Photoshop'd just like the character itself. So who knows.

I really hope it's true.

[andibandit]

Another week and another
[Insert name here]
character Revealed for
Playstation All Stars Royale.

why cant they just release all the info at once.

[Instigator]

That doesn't sound like such a good idea. I remember that when the Smash Bros. Dojo revealed everything about Brawl beforehand it took away the joy of discovering the game's secrets.

I hope that doesn't happen to PSABR.

[SwilloTGL]

I think the possible presence of Crash Bandicoot in Battle Royale would generally just restore my faith in the world, humanity and the universe.

[versusALL]

He has to be in this game. I mean he was one the PlayStation mascots.

[KalBalboa]

It's a fake, guys.

[ScubaSteve1]

how do you know this for sure? you have a copy already or are you just pulling stuff out of your butt

[-Alpha]

The biggest giveaways are that he's not on the same plane as Fat Princess, and he has a super, but no "aura" that's supposed to emit when you get a super.

[strauser360]

Well the game is in development, It could just be an error or just unfinished.

[legionsoup]

It does look fake - Crash doesn't fit in, and he doesn't look like he's made out of polygons like everyone else - but I'd still be surprised if an actual version of Crash was just yet to be announced.

[Rikuson1]

If the was Parapa the rapper leak shot everyone would say it was fake just because of how Parapa's character looks in the game it doesn't look as legit as Kratos or Radec. People now these days don't even take the time to make fake screenshots anymore those days are very well behind us people.

[WeskerChildReborned]

Would be cool if this is true.

[abzdine]

Abe is also missing!

[doogiebear]

Oddworld Abe?

[abzdine]

Yes, he's one of the most popular PlayStation characters.
I imagine him farting, smacking and hypnotizing and drinking the green beverage to get some power in Battle Royale :D

[Relientk77]

Abe is amazing, I hope hes in it

[HmongAmerican]

If enough people demands for it SuperBot might do it. Just like a lot of interview I has seen. They said if there demand for it, they will create it.

[ScubaSteve1]

cloud, spyro, snake, dart, are all missing

[Giru017]

Don't forget about Gex: The Gecko!

[RmanX1000]

Cue the shitting of the pants.

[JKelloggs]

He should be in the game, along with Spyro and Gex, SONY greats

[TenkoTAiLS]

Crash and Spyro should be since they started life as Playstation exclusives. But Gex was always multiplatform from day 1, dunno if he can be called a Sony great when he was never exclusive to Sony at any point. Great game tho, good memories.

[JKelloggs]

Yeah, you've got a point tbh.

Still would love him in there nonetheless, but I would mainly like Spyro in there, my favourite childhood game of all time (well the first 3, the others went to the crapper)

[JKelloggs]

I've just realised, Sackboy hasn't been confirmed yet

[Mike_Tha_Hero]

This was created on neogaf user for shits and giggles.

[kingPoS]

You might be right. The folks over there did photoshop a rather convincing vertical CECH-4000 with it's top open.

[-Gespenst-]

Fingers crossed very tightly.

[KrimsonKody]

Whether this article is phony or not, I think even Sony knows that Crash is a go.
& yeah, I would'nt mind Gex being part of the roster either.
It's been so long since I've heard an cheesy Gex punchline.
¦,^(

But, rightfully, Gex got his start on 3DO.
So maybe that's the problem.

[-Gespenst-]

Spyro, Crash, Cloud, Abe, Dr. Don & Dr. Dan, Lara Croft, Gabe from Syphon Filter and Snake need to be in this to make it complete, but it's totally possible that we won't see any of those...

Also Tombi, Croc and Gex but they might be a little bit obscure.

[310dodo]

I pray that this is real

or at least that Crash is in it

[supremacy]

What sony really needs to do is try to buy back the rights to crash i mean activision is not doin much with them as of late, shuhei needs to see through this. i know i would.

[DialgaMarine]

Crash isn't just A PS Allstar. He was THE PS Allstar back in the days of the PS1. The only way he could end up not being in the game is if Activision decides to dick around with Sony. Otherwise, there's no way that Sony and Superbot would pass him up.

[r21]

oh man, if crash is really announced, there will be thousands of cries of cheers. and if it is true, i hope ND designs and creates the model :D

[VanillaBear]

Is that old Crash or Activisons Crash

I can't really tell...can't see any horrible tribal tattoos on him.

[310dodo]

I agree completely with you

Crash doesnt seem to have tribal on him at all!!!

[GodHandDee]

Looks fake as hell

[snowman2149]

I'd be surprised if Crash and Spyro aren't in this game, and what the hell not even 1 final fantasy character, am I the only one that would freak out if Cloud is a playable character?!

[Cra2yey3]

To me this is real, there is no doubt in my mind he isnt in the game.

[Omar91]

Yea it looks fake only because crash is not on the same plane as alpha stated. but his characters avatar on the bottom looks real.

[JDcg]

Huh well I hope it is real but how come whenever something like this comes up, there is only ever 1 picture at an obscure angle. Kinda fishy, just sayin'.

[spektical]

looks shopped in. idk. crash looks like its hovering above the picture.

[Gamesgbkiller]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[Silverfang2340]

Look how small his right arm is compared to the left, it's obviously photoshopped in and completely fake. Sony does not own the rights to Crash Bandicoot anymore and neither does Naughty Dog(sadly) so I say there's no way he's in the game.

[Scrafty369]

Actually, PSASBR is meant to have many third-party characters; they got Big Daddy and Heihachi Mishima in. Just because Sony doesn't own the rights doesn't mean there's no way Crash could be in the game.

[CaitSith]

Fake. He should be glowing since he has a super ready.

[Reggonoy]

Who cares? Where's Snake??? And get rid of Raiden too.

[Afterlife]

This isn't little Big Planet(Different planes) so it's fake.

[guitar_nerd_23]

I'd be shocked if he's not in it.

[ChipChipperson]

How come Radec is killing too many Redcoats guys? I mean, they said we were gonna kill all PlayStation characters, but Radec is killing nothing but Redcoats. I don't know guys, this just seems like a pro-Helghast game.

[prototypeknuckles]

sadly this is fake guys trust me its already been proven on the psabr forums

[Raoh]

Makes sense

[Ryutamashii]

Sony need's to buy the Crash Bandicoot IP, it can't be worth much considering the massive downhill slide has taken. GIVE CRASH BACK TO NAUGHTY DOG!

I mean Crash Bandicoot was like Mario for PS1, when I think PS1 I think CB

[SuperbVillain]

I dunno...I'd smash fat princess though...

[Emilio_Estevez]

Looks like it could be true

[oldfriend86]

I'm happy with the current list, but adding Crash would be nice. It does seem missing without him.

I've been hearing constant rumors, especially the recent Raiden (MGS4) announcement. I thought that made sense, being that Rises will be coming out soon (hopefully).

[Mastarace]

It better be the real crash[ps1] and not the ugly abomination that activision has turned it to.
