<p>Quoting the first post:</p>
<p><em>(Thread is pretty good for TD;LR debunking and detailed explaination of why a misconception or rumour is debunked..)</em></p>
<blockquote><p>Basically what the title says, this thread is to debunk any popular misconceptions/rumors regarding anything Crash Bandicoot. I&#8217;ll start by getting some popular well-known ones out of the way:</p>
<ul>
<li>Crash Bandicoot was never owned by Naughty Dog or Sony Computer Entertainment.</li>
<li>Crash Bandicoot did not release on August 31st, 1996 but rather September 9th, 1996.</li>
<li>Crash was never sold to any companies but rather merged into different publishers through acquisitions.</li>
</ul>
<p>Now continue with statements you&#8217;ve heard and debunk them here.</p></blockquote>
