If Button Smashing does it for you, then by all means get the xbox or the PS3 Version

But to be perfectly honest, I own, and I've played the Wii Version, and I was so drawn in to the game by the fact that you are actively interacting with the game itself that I would refuse to lower my standards to the simple classic button smashing that is the only thing that Xbox and PS3 has to offer

There, you insulted the Wii, well right back at ya :*bleep*in:  :*bleep*in:

Ps: and for the ppl saying they get sore from playing with the wii... are you really that bad of shape? Its effortless for goodness sakes!

They had to make DotD from scratch with EL, because Sierra pulled the project from Krome as they were already working on the game, which is mainly cause for Spyro and Cynder suddenly becoming teenagers and new character designs as an attempt to draw in an audience that is growing up with Spyro. The only thing they updated more was the scenery.

Anyways, the Wii has the same graphics as the PS2 version of DotD, and it's a little hard to move Spyro and Cynder with the nunchuck for me.

Anyway, a strict no.

The camera was just horrible and this game isnt meant to be played with wii.

yea

if u beat the dawn of the dragon one time u cant play story mode anymore
man that bites

Yeppers, but, I don't know about the Wii version, you can play the chapters again... At least on the PS2, anyway.
Oh, yeah, you want to know if it's worth getting. XD
I'd say definitely. Here's my review on the PS2 version, which is meant to be basically the same as the Wii, only different controls, obviously.

*****
Although the previous two games in the "The Legend of Spyro" series have been somewhat disappointing and repetitive, you might find that Dawn of the Dragon is a happy change, for the better. Spyro, Cynder and Sparx have matured whilst being in the crystal, which is one of many plot holes in the game, since Krome studios isn't making Spyro now.
Sparx actually has an enthusiastic person voicing him, without a voice that makes you want to die *cough*Billy West*cough cough*(XD It's true!).
You can play two-player, too. Controller 1 is Spyro and Controller 2 is Cynder.
Solve some challenges and puzzles, and collect... collectables.
You will particularly like this game if you want less fighting, improved graphics and more puzzles.
It may also help your view of the game if you like, or can stand, the pairing Cynder and Spyro.

I hope this helped. This is just my view on the game, you may not agree with it, but you can always take it into consideration. =P
