Timmy Vermicelli Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Gawd, I took my time ramming that damn bear around at the end of Year of the Dragon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crushingmayhem Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Spyro was awesome back in the day, probably one of the best games on the Playstation. Too bad that they had to sell the franchise, but despite the series has changed I think Spyro still has more to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Sponge Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Just thought that I'd revive this thread based on renewed interest alone. I would say ignore those older posts I've made that expressed my old salt towards Activision and Skylanders in general, but I already went ahead and edited them, especially since my past hatred was only based on my first impression on Spyro's Adventure. My real thoughts on Skylanders is like this: I haven't played any of the games yet, but I think it's an interesting franchise that stood on its own and broke ground in the video game industry by popularizing video games with toy figure compatibility. Anyways, I have replayed the original three Spyro games a few months back thanks to the magic of the Playstation Store. Of course, each of them still hold up, with Ripto's Rage being my favorite out of the three. I guess you guys can say that I'm waiting on a new, let alone good Spyro game in the near future, but right now I'm hoping something new will come out of Spyro outside of Skylanders.

Timmy Vermicelli Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 I'm personally hoping the original trilogy gets the N. Sane treatment. The Crash games look gorgeous enough as it is, I couldn't begin to imagine Spyro would turn out with all its fantastical settings. in other news since my last post on this thread, I finally played through A New Beginning completely last year, I think. It was aight, felt a lot like what they were trying to do with the Titans series for Crash by heavily relying on the beat em aspect, but the story was hella cliche and short tho. Beat it in like five hours or so. I also bought Eternal Night and Dawn of the Dragon, but I haven't played em as of yet, although I've heard some things, especially since my copy of EN is the wii version. his Skylanders (which I also haven't played) design still fails to grow on me even after all these years. They did do good by Crash tho, actually bought his and Cortex's figurines. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NegiSpongie Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I downloaded Year of the Dragon on the PS3 and replaying it was really fun, though I had forgotten how hard the game was, especially when you're trying to get 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Vermicelli Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Well this seems pretty convincing https://www.vg247.com/2018/04/05/spyro-reignited-trilogy-amazon-leak-release-date/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenPaz Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I'm sorry I didn't see the existing spyro topic... Also when your boy BenPaz doesn't own a ps4 or Xbox one. I will have to wait for a switch version. or just play the first three games in their original form! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NegiSpongie Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Wow, I am so excited. I'm definitely getting those when they come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyanideFishbone Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I'm hoping for a Switch release, which I think is very possible. Crash and Spyro are both owned by Activision and with Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy coming out on the Switch, a Switch release for this is definitely possible. We're probably gonna have to wait a bit for it like we did for Crash Bandicoot unfortunately, but if this comes to the Switch I'm probably gonna pick it up. Spyro is a franchise I've always been interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Vermicelli Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 BAM! Looks at that grass sizzle! dont know if this'll show up since embedding YouTube videos seems a bit off for me lately, but it's a side by side comparison of the level Stone Hill featuring reignited gameplay footage they posted recently. Looks pretty cherry edit: nvm fixed it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley_Face Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I played the first Spyro and loved it. I need to play the rest sometime. Spyro is sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Sponge Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Gameplay footage for remastered Ripto's Rage has recently surfaced...and I'm stunned to see how amazing Idol Springs looks in the remaster: Oh, and I'm also liking the faster pace for the idol head portion of one of the orb sidequests.

Jinjo Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) So uh, this is causing quite a bit of an uproar in the Spyro community: https://www.polygon.com/2018/8/2/17643358/spyro-reignited-trilogy-games-on-disc-download Basically, it seems like only the first game is on the disc, and there will be a "day one patch" where you have to download Ripto's Rage and Year of the Dragon via internet? Not sure if there's more to it, but right now I dunno how to feel given the complete lack of further info regarding that, and Activision's vague replies haven't helped.

Jinjo Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) welp: http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/08/17/spyro-reignited-trilogy-release-date-delayed-to-november Edited August 17, 2018 by jjsthekid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Vermicelli Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 If this delay means getting all three games on one disc (which is what it sure is sounding like) then I don't mind. I'm gutted, sure, since it happened so close to the launch date and I've been literally counting down the days, but this seems to be for the best. Especially since I heard that they were still scrambling to complete Year of the Dragon fairly recently and Toys For Bob really had to stand up to Activision in order to approve this delay and put the game out on their own terms. Here's to hoping the extra time is beneficial in polishing a great finished product. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Sponge Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) I'm just going to make some of OMJ's words my own here. I can wait another few months. I've had the feeling that Toys for Bob wouldn't finish the game by the release date, I can tell that they're taking all the time that they need to finish the trilogy. Considering that the N. Sane Trilogy wasn't released during the exact 20th anniversary month/year of Crash Bandicoot, I feel Reignited didn't have to be released on the week or month of the Spyro franchise's 20th anniversary. What I'm really hoping right now is that the third game doesn't turn out too botched or unfinished by the time the entire trilogy is released.
