 Nice game, but they took some of the features of "A New Begining" away. October 30, 2008
Graphics: 8/10. Charming 3D graphics , stunning particle effects, beautiful environments, you name it. The 3D designers/animators were obviously pros. The only problem is that the pixels are rather sharp, but that's just a minor flaw.
Music: 7.5/10. I won't say perfect, but it is still very good. There are no seams in the looping.
Gameplay: 9/10. Almost flawless. Very good story, (kind of sad), complex combat system, fresh adventure, all-in-all, a great game. One other flaw though: they took out some of the features that were included inside Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning. I may well never understand that, but, well, don't let that bother you. Enjoy the game.
The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Headache September 17, 2008
I've been a big fan of the Spyro games for years. I bought the original three games for the PlayStation console on release day. I poured blood, sweat and tears into those games. They were great: imaginitive, creative, and challenging. I could escape from my own world as a kid and become a dragon for a day. It was a dream come true for me.
Unfortunately, the new Spyro game leaves a lot to be desired. Gone is the care-free roaming and playful burning of enemies. Gone is the light-hearted missions and goals. In its place is a long, poorly lit game that makes me squint, swear and scream. Whoever decided to reinvent Spyro had the right idea by creating a more constant-danger ongoing adventure. However, they should have thought twice before they made every single enemy so difficult to kill that the player must die half a dozen times to succeed. This is not how Spyro is supposed to be. Despite my love for Spyro, or probably because of it, I am sorely disappointed in this game, and would not recommend it to others, unless you enjoy sitting in front of the television screen for hours on end yelling and cursing at the purple, pixelated graphic running around at your beck and call.
 Great game September 10, 2008

I have nothing to say about it, I gave it as a present and never heard a word about it.
So-So repeat for Spyro August 8, 2008
Unfortunately, this game follows the "wham-bam" focus as it's most recent predecessors. It's not about exploring anymore, it's about whopping enemies on the head, ad nauseam. Compared to the first three Spyro games, this one completely sucks. But if you look at it independently, it's not so bad, just repetitive to the nth degree. Spyro fans go ahead and buy it, but casual gamers may skip out on this one.
A little harder, but still fun! July 18, 2008
Overall, I thought this game was pretty good. The graphics were AMAZING, and the voicovers were just as good. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that this game was much harder than the other Spyro games. Again, many people say 'Oh, this game is horrible because it's not like the other Spyro games'. This bothers me A LOT! THINGS CHANGE, PEOPLE! GET USED TO IT! And I thought it was a change for the better. All those mini games got a bit annoying after a while. I like the more combat theme of the Legend of Spyro games. The others seemed to lack my interest (just to let you know, I'm not one of those people who loves gory games. I'm a 13 year old girl who likes horse games and Spyro games :P) Don't not take me seriously just because I'm only 13. I know what I'm saying when I say I like this game. Like I've said before, it is a bit more difficult than other Spyro games, but after i beat it, there was no problem. Now, even starting from scratch, I beat the game daily. I'm not saying it's too easy, I'm saying that it gets easier once you figure out what you're doing. And the end of the game has made me want Dawn of the Dragon extremely bad. So, take my advice and get this game. If you don't want to buy it, at least rent it!
