Sane Trilogy, the remastered editions of the classic 1990s PlayStation games.<\/p>\n<p>The original trilogy of Crash Bandicoot games was popular when released and remained a fan favorite over time. The N. Sane Trilogy has been a highly successful remaster and has sold over 20 million copies.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"Crash Bandicoot N.
