Will the sereies come to an end?

Will the Spyro series will come to an end? Will it ever last? Will Spyro fans be disapointed? What will happen? Why is Spyro purple? Why is Cydner and Ember have a crush on Spyro? WHY IM I ASKING SO MANY QUESTIONS? XD

Cynder Fan · Oct 28, 2007 4:05 AM

I don't think so... The "Legend of Spyro" has breathed a bit more life into the series, but if it took up with where Enter the Dragonfly left off, then I'd say yes.

ratchet · Oct 28, 2007 10:14 AM

it really depends what developer gets spyro after Krome.
Now, spyro is purple because its a colour type of a dragon, see they can be all different clours, he just happens to be purple.
In literal aspect, spyro is purple because Insomniac thought it was a good unusual colour and it didn't "blend in".
And Ember has a crush on spyro because she is desperate, she finds spyro appealing/attractive and because hes a hero.
Cynder's crush isn't confirmed but she probably likes spyro because he saved her from DM, hes nice, hes her age and theres not much fish in the sea.

This is a question that's been buggin' me for a wile. If they end Spyro, then that's it, no more Spyro unless someone is really good a reserecting things, but if they continue it then how is it going to work out? I mean, will Spyro be forever a tiny purple pipsqueek? Or will he age? and if he ages then what? Will he age till death or just settle down? And if he stays tiny, whats the excuse? Did he drink from some fountion of youth like "Tuck Everlasting?" But I belive that havving the Purple protagonist stay the samt too long will make him like Mario, more of a joke than a hero.

Now look at whos asking so many questions...

Spyrorocks · Nov 03, 2007 1:22 AM

As long as people still buy the game (And they sell a large quantity of them), they will continue to make new ones.

Spyro_Loves_Me · Nov 04, 2007 7:17 AM

Eh, hard to say. It's obvious it won't last forever since nothing does. It might end on the next part of LOS, or it might not. Of course, I hope it doesn't. smile

Spyrorocks · Nov 04, 2007 5:24 PM

Realistically, I think it might go one or two more games, then they will either sell spyro off to me, or keep him to themselves but never make another game.

Tristan · Nov 04, 2007 5:33 PM

Evrything will come to an end... even spyro the dragon

Brom the Wise · Nov 04, 2007 11:19 PM

Not Sonic [that blue SOB]
Not Warcraft [ok, the RTS warcraft is over, thanks to WOW]
Not Starwars [oh joy, ANOTHER starwars flick]
Not Slpinter Cell
Not Prince of Persia
Not Pirates of the Carriben [yes they are making a new one..in 2 years]
Not Rolling Stones [they just did a tour in Europe I belive]
Not Metroid

truth is, Spyro probally will continue being made 5 years down the road, but the game series's will be at least 2-3 years apart or more. Either frome will run out of ideas and say to themselvs "we still got sputter, i mean speckles, I mean Spyro" or krome will start losing $ sell Spyro, and the byers will have a go with Spyro.

I hope they sell it to you Spyrorocks! roll

ratchet · Nov 05, 2007 5:07 AM

well yeah but since spyro cost 550 million dollars, HE NEEDS MONEY!

Rexy · Nov 06, 2007 1:44 AM

Since Spyro is shown to be a profitable franchise for Sierra, I can't see the franchise ending anytime soon. But someone stated it down the line - all good things must come to and end, or at the very least lessen with releases of such stuff. That's what seemed to happen with some of the big games of the 70s - not even Pacman seems to be gaining much fresh stuff around here in the modern day market give or take the odd two Namco compilation games.

Even if the franchise dries out, it won't stop there being a chance for future games or other memorabilia to hit the market even if they were sparodic. Let's take Betty Boop as an example - her toons were all the rage in the 30s and it was very rare that we saw a feminist icon to that degree. But not long after the Second World War her image was toned down and not a lot of attention was paid to her. These days she might appear in the odd cartoon (a brief appearance in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" springs to mind), and she still gets all sorts of memorabilia shipped out on a regular basis. I mean, one of the gift shops near my home has all sorts of crazy merchandise revolved around her, and one of the t-shirts that I wear of her drinking "Boopsi Cola" in outer space is something that I wear pretty often.

My point is, when we take Spyro into account, I say we keep remembering everything we came to know about the dragon for the years that would come after the series gets left behind. Even if he may not get much of an active role in videogaming in about 10-15 years from now (shoot me if I could be wrong), people will still remember him by name and that's all there is to it.

ratchet · Nov 06, 2007 8:01 AM

well yeah.
Marios been going on for a while, why not spyro?
no, i think he will last for long, if a good developer gets im

oh and... 600TH POST!!!!!

KingSkarl · Nov 13, 2007 9:17 PM

Well it wont last forever. I don't think it will end anytime soon though. i think spyro will stick around for a few years.

ratchet · Nov 14, 2007 4:47 AM

It seems im avaraging 50posts posts a week ^^
Yeah, Spyro will stick around... I just REALLY hope something good will happen to him

That list is biased and unfair!

Fixed to an unbiased and fair list.

Isn't Star Trek having a new movie, as well? I'm certain games are released when there is a new Star Trek film, too (even if it has nothing to do with the film).

Anyway, Spyro probably won't die soon. 10-15 years down the line, maybe (hopefully not), but not yet. He's just too profitable.

ratchet · Nov 16, 2007 9:51 AM

well hes one of the most biggest money makers and i know spyro can do well in good hands.
These days there seems to be getting less and less "kid" games (when i say kid i dont mean like 5-10) so yeah, we need spyro to smash mario's *bleep*

Lancer232 · Nov 17, 2007 11:20 PM

Spyro shouldn't be ending anytime soon. It is a very profitable game series (like stated earlier by others), take this for example, one week the Wal-Mart where I live was stockpiled with LoS: TEN, and when I came back a week or two later, sold out!

ratchet · Nov 18, 2007 2:32 AM

well it seems to appeal to alot of people so yeah, The spyro series wont come top an end soon

N0NiX · Nov 18, 2007 3:30 AM

If they stopped it now... I'd cry sad
But lucky theyre already making a new one!!! big_smile

ratchet · Nov 18, 2007 6:41 AM

yeah, But what after The TLOS series ends...
Well i plan to make a spyro game in the future, and he will be much cheaper if hes dead.
But hell, i can still publish it with VU
But anyway, hes too good of a character for all developers to say no

Brom the Wise · Nov 18, 2007 6:56 AM

... After TLOS he will be at the unmerciful mercy of whatever company picks up our now caged hero

ratchet · Nov 18, 2007 7:01 AM

ummmm, well deh!

Brom the Wise · Nov 18, 2007 7:19 AM

I fear what they'll do to our soon to be captive friend
