I find it interesting how that concept is not Spyro-ish at all, really. Even less so than the current Skylanders Spyro. Makes ya wonder how the went from original spyro to this thing, and then back to what they came up up.

Of course, there's the small chance that what we're looking at isn't Spyro at all...

Another dragon, my guess is some rival

I'm guessing the "element" is some kind of treasure chest toy that gives characters of its element bonus powers or something.

EDIT: Wait, does that article say "magic item" and not "element" to anyone else? As in, "you can have two characters and one magic item on the portal at a time."

Thats very intresting, the 3DS version will be a platformer whie the other versions are action games.

Spash the Bandragon · Jun 09, 2011 11:55 PM

What?! No jumping? *frustrated noises while I think it over* Err... well... grr... okay, I guess I can accept that so long as Spyro can still fly. And Gill Grunt has his Super Mario Sunshine water jetpack thing, too. So I guess it's okay...

riverhippo · Jun 10, 2011 4:48 AM

The no jumping sounds disappointing, but I guess it'll just be something to get used to.

Aura24 · Jun 10, 2011 5:40 AM

Yet fans are automatically hating this game now because jumping wasn't included. Spyro can still fly, but the some of the ground characters only jump when they're doing their attacks. What about Zelda or the other games that didn't have jumping in them?

riverhippo · Jun 10, 2011 10:55 AM

I don't think the intelligent argument is that a game where you can't jump is bad, but it's just that jumping is something Spyro has always been able to do.

They style of gameplay they are going for seems to relate more with LoS than the original trilogy, which I'm sure plenty of Spyro purists are happy to hear. (sarcastic)

Wait what? DOTD was the only thing that wrecked the gameplay

He just flies right above the ground, Spash, as shown in his character trailer.

ontels · Jun 10, 2011 6:32 PM

If your angry about it then get the 3DS version, problem solved.

I really was not expecting those gems. They look almost exactly like the PS1 gems! That and those sheep are two shout-outs to the classic games, so even if this game is a new continuity, it at least shows that the developers like classic Spyro.

Also judging from the gameplay video, it's looking like Gill Grunt, Spyro, and probably some other characters can fly over water and bottomless pits, but there's a height limit. Interesting... (I guess it's to make up for the lack of jumping.)
