I absolutely loved Croc back in 1997 – I was a PC gamer then, and we didn’t get the Marios and the Sonics, so a proper 3D cartoon platformer was welcome – plus it was pretty good too. Sales were in the region of 3 million, certainly enough to warrant a sequel a couple of years later, but this fared less well, and apart from the odd mobile game, Croc was never seen again. That is until now!
In response to a tweet from James Batchelor, editor-in-chief of GamesIndustry.biz, Jez San the founder of Argonaut seemed to confirm a remaster of the first game – Croc HD. A large section of hardcore fans have wanted a remake or modern-day sequel for decades now, and although this doesn’t sound like anything more than a remaster, that isn’t stopping us from getting a little bit excited and nostalgic.
