5 out of 5 stars I LOVED IT!   September 1, 2008

I loved this game. It has a lot of action and it is sort of hard. It started of easy and it ended hard. I liked the story and the fury moves - those were awesome.




3 out of 5 stars It is different to the previous Spyros   August 31, 2008
It is different to the previous Spyros, it is no longer so innocent, requires more dexterities to play it


5 out of 5 stars A great buy for any Spyro fan!   July 18, 2008
I absolutely love, and I mean LOVE, this game. Yes, I've played all the original Spyro games, and I've got to say, this is defiantely a great addition to the Spyro collection. Sure, it's different than all the others, but guess what?: THINGS CHANGE. And sure, it's easy to beat after a while, but it's something that'll keep you interested. Even though there aren't any mini games (which I found annoying after a while) and it's mostly combat, it still keeps you interested, unlike A Hero's Tail, which I got bored of. And the voice overs are AWESOME! I like how they added more attitude and personality into the characters. I absolutely love Sparks's attitude :D He keeps the mood upbeat by adding something humorous or sarcastic into the scene, and always puts his 2 cents in. The game also teaches you what to do with the training with the elders. If you don't listen to this review and don't wanna spend the money to buy this game, at least rent it!


1 out of 5 stars Are you kidding me?!   July 12, 2008
I've been playing the Spyro games for a long time, ever since the first game (Spyro The Dragon) was released for Playstation. After playing the trilogy while growing up on the Playstation One, I than awaited for Insomniac to make some new Spyro Gems for the Playstation Two.
How disturbing this series has become since than. Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly and Spyro: A Hero's Tail were alright, although the first one of this whole new series did have a bunch of cliches, and the second one was frustrating, this game is a failure.
What have they done to you Spyro? Now you are "Spyro Baggins," going off on your new little quest, which is totally wrong. They re-ripped, re-burned the old, awesome little spit of flame from the original series and made this cheap-skate to earn some cash. Spyro is now a disturbing little dragon and sparks is absolutely stupid. Why are they trying to input famous voice-actors into this game? Its not working. A while back, after playing this game I got rid of it. For anybody who is new to Spyro, trust me, don't play this game, or the one after this (Eternal Night). Rather try to find a copy of the first game, Spyro The Dragon, and play it.
And even if they are continuing on with this "new," Spyro, especially with the new Spyro game coming out this year, and the movie, Spyro isn't going to get any better, but the game play might. Lets hope they don't stick with the boxed-in world in this game. What a disappointment.



2 out of 5 stars What to say?   June 20, 2008

I do not yet have this game but reading the reviews it sounds exactly like the second game in the Legend of Spyro series. I am mainly reviewing to say that my opinion of Enter the Dragon hasn't changed at all... give Insomniac the reigns to the Spyro series because they did it better. The original Spyro games (for the PS) are much better. I loved Spyro because of the collecting of gems, eggs and other items not for the fighting and that is exactly what Universal or whoever is making the games now has done is made into a long, continous, and therefore boring battle. All I can say is don't waste your money on the Spyro games for PS2, PS3 or the Wii.
