Editorial Review:

Product Description:
MEET SPYRO HE'S A FIESTY LITTLE FLAME SPROUTING DRAGON ON A GIGANTIC GO ANYWHERE 3D FANTASY ADVENTURE

Editorial Review:
Spyro is a cute purple dragon in a bit of a pickle. Each of Spyro's dragon friends has fallen victim to the nefarious Gnasty Gnorc, who has turned them into crystals. Accompanied by Sparx the dragonfly, Spyro sets out to free his buddies, while collecting gems and dragon eggs. Sparx also serves as Spyro's health-o-meter, glowing gold when Spyro is healthy and turning dusky green as he tires. To boost his energy, Spryo can blast docile creatures with fire, turning them into butterflies, which Sparx transforms into much-needed fuel.

This title has bright graphics in six well-developed worlds, each with several subworlds, including bogs, deserts, and ice worlds. Unlike some action games, in Spyro the Dragon the enemies are more fun than frightening. In the Peace Keepers world, for example, Spyro must burn down the monster soldiers' tent, sending one of the minions running out, quaking with fear or, if you're lucky, dropping his drawers and shooting a moon.

Spyro's movements (fire breathing, gliding, jumping, and climbing) require entry-level gaming skills. For this reason, Spyro the Dragon is an excellent title for youngsters or less experienced players, who want to play without having to master complex movement combinations. --Kasty Thomas

Pros:

• Large worlds provide hours of game playing
• Variety of scenarios
• Engaging graphics

Cons:

• Low game skill requirements may prove less challenging for expert players

Rating: - Extremely Easy Difficulty And Poor Story Ruins Otherwise Classic
The Spyro the Dragon franchise holds a special place in my heart for some of the best(Year Of The Dragon, final game made by Insomniac for PS1) and worst (Enter The Dragonfly for PS2) games I've ever played in my life. It's appropriate to first review the very first, which to this day is revered by the critics. And, I get what they're trying to say. There's excellent graphics for 1998, and the soundtrack, done by the drummer of The Police Stewart Copeland is great and it stays in your head all day ... Read More

Rating: - Spiro the Dragon
The game is great - however, the retailer is not. This game was advertised as 'good' condition, and it was 'horrible' condition. It worked for a week, then stopped. Very disappointed in this purchase.

Rating: - A great collector's item.
I have all of the Spyro games that have been released for the Playstation 2. This is a must have for anyone who loves this series. This purple dragon is here to stay.

Rating: - Great game for people of every age.
Gorgeous. A word perfect to describe this game. Having grown up with spyro as a young child, I've always loved this game. Everything about it is great. For this review though, I'm going to break the game down into 3 categories: Graphics, gameplay, and control. First off though, this is a platformer for the Playstation (Also available for the Playstation Network.) You play as a dragon, spyro collecting gems and saving dragons through 6 worlds. And without a further ado, my review.
