1.0 out of 5 stars Spyro, How Once I Loved Thee, April 21, 2008

This is not the Spyro you remember - If you are a fan of the original three Spyro games put out on the first Playstation, you are probably not going to enjoy this. This game is just awful. The sound is atrocious (seriously, the sound is so bad; grainy and staticy and kind of painful to listen to), the story is non existent, the controls are just plain wrong - everything about it is bad.

I was so looking forward to playing this game on my DS and it being like the old Spyro I remember, but unfortunately it's not the same company putting the Spyro games out and things have gone downhill for our snarky, witty purple friend. The original Spyro would be ashamed of this hollow impersonator.

i really enjoyed this game. i'm not one for shooter games, or ones with excessive violence, so i really enjoy spyro games. it took me a few weeks to finish the game, but i didn't sit infront of it all day either. this is one game i would play again. the plot was great, it when right along with spyro's world, and i did find it a bit chalenging in places. at one point i did give up on it for about half a week though because i couldn't find all the relics to get i to defeat the game boss, but i soon figured it out. i recomend this game if you want adventure without the excessive violence.

Ok. The storyline in this game is terrible and there is no emotional depth to the characters. The gameplay is ridiculously redundant. You go from area to area fighting groups of enemies. The stylus usage doesn't work well with the game at all. I often found myself fumbling for the stylus while still trying to press buttons. The fighting mechanics are all done extremely poorly. In some cases you don't even have to be near your enemy and they will still hurt you. There's a ton of specialmoves that you will never care to learn. Too many random button mashing. Ugh. Don't buy this.
