Spyro's one of those big names that kinda fell off the radar, I mean sure he's still around, but he's not got the same respect as he used to. Spyro, Rayman, Crash Bandicoot, Banjo and Kazooie (they probably have it worst), Megaman, Conker, Simon Belmont, Vectorman, Chrono, Battletoads and many many more We need to save some of these characters, only a few years back I'd have included Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong and Sonic to be on this list, the three of them had it bad until Donkey Kong Country Returns and Sonic Colors came out. At least buy Banjo-Kazooie off Rare Nintendo, and give the property to Retro Hell, buy Rare and Platinum games, let Platinum games do their stuff and give all Rare's IPs to Retro, new Banjo-Kazooie, Conker, Perfect Dark and Killer Instinct games (ok there is a new KI coming out on Xbox One, but I don't want an Xbox One, I don't want my overpriced Kinect console watching me 24/7, which is connected to a company that made so many dumb desicions with it already, who knows what'll be next?)

Spyro ia just the first of his kind( I mean the creators that came up with this idea were first) and hats why they did make succes Skylanders just ruins him but its a cool game Spyro is just timeless like many ccharacters you said together eith DK,Sonic and mario I love those and they are together with pokemon my favourite game characters |

I don't think Spyro was really the first of his kind, Spyro is a basic (generally freeroaming) platformer, and both Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie did that first Spyro is actually a rather simple game in comparison, charge, jump and flame breath being his only abilities and it generally being a collect-a-thon platformer (similar to Donkey Kong 64) I'm not saying Spyro isn't an original character, or that the Spyro games aren't amazing, believe me, they are, but yeah, not really the first or the best IMO Also yeah, Skylanders screwed with the series, but it has nothing on Banjo-Nuts and Bolts, **** I hate that game and **** I hate Microsoft for killing my favorite franchise Also I don't think Spyro is so timeless, he's a late 90s, early 2000s character, he's not Mario, Link, Donkey Kong, Pokemon or such, but he could be great once again if done right Edited by Murdock129, Jun 22 2013, 03:45 PM.

Spyro had already lost itself when they gave it to the new company who did the last trilogy of games where Elijah Wood voiced him. The three games are awful and are nothing like the original, though I did like the last one in the trilogy. |

I dont know if someone would be able to make a good re-make of Spyro with his original lore and concept, i mean i think the lore kinda died a bit at Spyro Enter The Dragonfly

Heck, a remake of the original game might be good, put it on 3DS next to Ocarina of Time and Mario 64, add a few new features, it'd be awesome To be honest a lot of these old games really lost it in terms of Lore, Spyro's new lore, L.O.G. in Banjo (not to mention making Banjo a fat slob who hadn't done anything in years, YOUR OWN FAULT MICROSOFT), Rayman's obsession with being too self aware, Crash talking in the racing games and all kinds of other stuff like that |

I don't even know why they rebooted Spyro's story, they had unlimited potential considering that he had a rather sizeable number of villans at his disposal. He lives in a magic world so it wasn't far-fetched for him to travel between them as people needed him. What was the need for it? You already could have done anything you wanted. The new storyline for him tried waaay too hard to be serious. |

Hananas, I really don't understand, Spyro pretty much does play the same role as Mario in a lot o his games, he's the hero in a platformer game. But yeah, why reboot his story? Well to be honest, why did they feel the need for Sonic to fight a genie when pulled into a storybook? Or fight a corrupted King Arthur with a sword in the most repetitive game ever, or fall in love with a human in an extremely squicky scene from one of the worst games ever, or turn into a werehog with giant stretchy arms? Video game designers often seem to listen more to stupid critics who complain games that are similar are just 'more of the same', even if the game is pretty much perfect, like the people who complained Banjo Tooie was virtually the same as Banjo-Kazooie, they are similar in many regards, but they build on the established universe and abilities to make the best sequel to a game ever. And because of a lot of those whiners (and morons at Microsoft who I will not forgive) they make the sequel into a stupidly overly self aware (they were already self aware to an extent but not to the gratuitous unfunny extent nuts and bolts was) mission based kart racing game, with no platforming, none of the charm of the first two games, set in a whole new universe, with the characters acting immensely OOC and focusing more on this ****** Lord of Games character than Banjo, Kazooie and Grunty, while simultaneously insulting the best platformer games ever made The thing that annoys me most is people give Nuts and Bolts positive reviews, I'm sorry, usually I'm ok with people having differing opinions, but people who rate this game as any good, or even comparable to Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie need their heads examined, and will probably find they either have had, or need a lobotomy Wow, I got really carried away there... |
