The music was nice, the graphics were nice.
They tried hard to make a spyro game TRUE to what insomniac did, but failed only because they were unfairly rushed by Universal.
I applaud that it was true to the trilogy on pSX, but sadly, universal never should of allowed the game to release in the state it did. It was practically unplayable. Personally, this is the ONLY spyro game aside from the skylanders series i never beat.

If only Universal gave the devs ONE MORE YEAR. Who knows where the series would be.
Likely, Spyro would still be spyro, and check six would possibly actually be the permanent spyro developer if it had succeeded.

good parts:
1. most of the minigames are fun enough that they're saved from the loading times.
2. the graphics are amazing.
3. good music.

bad parts:
1. too many glitches. [i can't win the race in.. i think it's Cloud 9? i know it's not the Dojo race.]
2. the loading times
3. not enough levels.
4. the levels that ARE there are too big, with too many gems.
5. the story doesn't make sense. can't the dragonflies find their own way back? and if not, still, why would they tease you while you're trying to RESCUE them? and especially when it says they're shy?
6. Crush/Gulp shouldn't be able to talk. o_o
7. Moneybags needs another appearance.
8. did you see the ending for this thing??? i didn't even play to the end, i just looked it up on YouTube, and wow. you spend all that time playing to get that.

EDIT:

9. the slide in Monkey Monastery. good grief, it's impossible, i almost always run out of time or fall off. when i fall off, he informs me that when sliding, it helps to stay on the slide ..... well no, duh. [sometimes when i fall off the edge, i go right through the sides and just keep falling until time runs out btw], and when i run out of time he says "impressive, most impressive! but you are not a slider yet"... funny the first time, not funny the 5th time. if you're bad at a mini game, that's fine, a bit annoying if you're obsessive compulsive about it like i am, but oh well. but this is just unbearable imo. [/rant]

It was rushed causing it to have so many glitches, bad framrate, poor storyline and many other problems.

The music was good as always from Stewart Copeland. It did still sorta have the same feel of the orginals which I liked.

Total: 8/10

that game was a bit disapointing!

10/10

(We should get this thread stickied or something)

I would give it a 4/10. The story was stupid and there were way too many glitches. The graphics and camera could have been a lot better, even though I thought they were amazing when I first got it because I only had a PSX before. THE WORST THING WAS THAT RIPTO WAS BACK AGIAN!!!

The only good things about it were the minigames (some of them were kind of fun) and the way that they at least tried to stick with the original Spyro themes. They even got Stewart Copeland to do the music again and they had most of the same character voices.

Overall... bad game. It ruined Spyro's reputation. T_T

I agree so much i thought they ruined spyro after that game it was riddled with glithes i rember the swimming glitch i once did and i went straight to the boss level Ripto and yes the Graphics where horrifiying and in the intro did you see ripto's mouth it was massive and i hated that they kept on running away so i give it a 3/10 in my opion it ruined the game!

overall i give it a 4.5/10

It only gets the "1" because I finished it, unlike "Kya".

Good points, good points...hmmm... I honestly can't think of a single one. There was almost one fun part in the game in the second sliding level, but that stopped being fun after I'd died for the fifth time at the same spot.

Bad points...oh boy, where do I start? >D
slooooow frame rate
ugly versions of good characters
lackluster music
annoying voice acting
glitchy
Ripto (what did they do to him?!)
bad/pointless plot
plot holes out the wazoo

The list just goes on and on. I really hated this game. It was so bad it actually made me want to play AHT (and anyone who knows me knows how little I think of AHT).
