| Ok, I'm bored.
Does anyone here play The Legend of Spyro series of games? I'm a big fan of them. [/random] | |

| Do you mean the older generation of Spyro games? The ones without Cynder, Ignitus, Terrador and all those characters? | |

| "The older generation" lol. Yes the ones without all those characters, the ones with the very first evil character: Gnasty Gnorc. Though I never beat the first game, only the other two(I even got 100% in the second one because I wanted to see what I'd get).
There were a lot of memorable characters too, Hunter was one of them. (I personally love almost everything from the second game except the last level, it just didn't appeal to me.)
Most people who actually praise the new games never played the old ones. I have played the newer games and can honestly say that I'm not overly impressed. The characters and story are fine, but the gameplay is horrible, and it really doesn't feel like a Spyro game to me. | |

| Well I've played one of the old ones, Ripto's Rage, and almost completed it, and i have also played two of the new gen, and I have to agree with you. Although the trilogy's game style is more appealing to me they didn't pull it off very well, whereas the older games had more in them and weren't as repetitive.
But I like the newer ones better because of the storyline. | |

| Ripto's rage <3
I don't like the fact that you and enemies have health bars, let me fry them with one hit thank you I can agree with that on respectable parts, I'm always looking for good stories, so I always watch/play games to see them. But the game has to have good gameplay for me to actually be able to play and see the story unfold, and if the story wasn't that good, but had good gameplay I might also play(but probably get bored easily). Graphics are ok to me, but aren't the most important thing out there.

| Graphics are still an important aspect of a game (although not as important as gameplay or storyline). And when I mean graphics, I also mean how the camera moves, what position it's in, the amount of effects etc. In the PS2 edition of DotD, they really failed with the camera in alot of the Quick-Time events (the events were you need to press a certain button quickly). The camera is often cutting into a character model (mainly the golem) leaving gaping holes in the model. I get quite tired of it.
But then I probably git more irritated by this due to the shoddy gameplay alongside it. The general mechanism of the gaming style in DotD was good, but as I said the developers didn't pull it off very well (Melee combat is so freaking hard without using breath attacks), perhaps because the game was rushed due to the change in developers. 'Course we can't blame everything on that. | |

| Never said they weren't, just really shouldn't matter.
Seriously, if we wanna get into the whole thing of graphics, we could always use Pokemon as the subject And OH GOD THAT GOLEM WAS BS. [/rant] It took me practically 2 hours to beat that thing, just because I couldn't get the quick time events *just* right. I got stuck somewhere, don't remember exactly....All I remember was this weight you had to carry in your mouth, and it basically limited your flying drastically, then you had to climb up this wall of vines or something. While all this was happening, the game mechanics weren't working correctly, I swear I was sitting in front of the screen yelling "JUMP YOU MORON!" for 20 minutes before gamerage completely took over and I shut it off. And if they really did change developers, they picked the wrong ones for the gameor any game. | |

| Aha, I'm guessing that's the Ruins of Warfang XD. That level WAS a pain on my first playthrough, and even now it's hell annoying.
But the Golem was pretty easy, even with the QTEs. The only annoying part was the second part of the second encounter with him, where every time he attacks that shockwave came out >.> it was really frustrating to hit him without getting hit yourself.
I find it funny how there are only two actually programmed bosses (ones with visible health bars) - The Golem and the Final Boss (not using his real name due to spoilers if you can call them that 8|) | |

| I played for who knows how many hours straight... I've already seen the ending so...no spoilerz for me. Also I have a strange urge to hook up my Playstation, put in Spyro, start a new game, and just do an all nighter. | |
