    this game killed spyro

    I have enjoyed every single adventure that Spyro has been on since Insomniac days. For me these were refreshing games with beautiful scenery, a cute little dragon, relaxing music and challenging puzzles-not to mention co... Read Full Review

    One of the Worst Games Ever Made

    The game has the worst gameplay ever. Spyro looks like a human head with buggy eyes on a rat's body. The game has sloppy and choppy controls and all the enemies are so annoying. Some enemies block attacks can have the p... Read Full Review

    One of the Worst Spyro Games Ever

    The first Legend of Spyro game is one of the worst games made by Krome Studios. The design for Spyro looks like a fat rat with wings and big buggy eyes who has his wings seriously clipped. All his moves have a lot of fla... Read Full Review

    A New Beginning? More like a false start...

    I'm not one of those guys who hates this game because 'It's not like the old ones, it's SHIT!!!1!1!'. After the dumpster fire of Enter The Dragonfly and the bland A Hero's Tail, it was clear a change was sorely needed fo... Read Full Review

    May not be as good as the old Spyro games, but still not bad.

    My 15th review after Super Smash Bros. Melee.Ahh yes, Spyro was one of those classic gaming mascots I knew and loved next to Crash Bandicoot, and I even loved Spyro's old crew from the classics. First three on the PS1 we... Read Full Review

    *sigh* It's Bad

    The Legend of Spyro isn't a good game. It didn't live up to my standards at all. They took an amazing video game franchise and completely shat all over it. To start off, they changed EVERYTHING. Spyro acts like a teen... Read Full Review

    What happened to Spyro??!?

    This is one of the biggest disappointments in gaming that I have ever come across. The last game in this series I played why 3 and even though that game was perfect in my opinion I expected this to be AT least good if no... Read Full Review

    Forget everything you know about Spyro and you may find this game quite enjoyable.

    The Legend of Spyro series is a complete reboot to the old games on PS1. Spyro is no longer the cute little dragon who runs around collecting gems and doing little puzzles and mini games. Shake that bias that this game i... Read Full Review

    Worst pile of poo I ever played.

    I'm a Spyro fan, but this friggin game sucks and is one of the most overrated games ever. Restarting a series that was already good was really unnecessary. They should have called this game "Spyro to go down the dark vol... Read Full Review
