I don't think the Spyro movie will be the worst thing in the world , and The Darkest Hour will be a great thing. smilie I think that either Spyro and Cynder will fall in love or she will die, but there are still many other possibilities. smilie

It would be sad if spyro really turned himself to darkness for no apparent reason, just think of all the friends he would lose.

This monster could be very important for this next game. :eCynder:

It's a good thing that were soon going to find out, because they drew a very misterious poster. :yCynder:

I noticed that the graphics were better in TEN that in ANB, I bet that the graphics will be even better in TDH. So if I were you I would get it on a higher quality system. smilie
I think that the big black thing behind Spyro and Cynder is not the Dark Master, they wouldn't give away that kind of info, it might be a different boss or just a red herring.

To SpyroGamer: Every spyro game since The Legond of Spyro series got darker. It won't be a surprise to me if the Spyro game soon gets a teen rating within a short period of time.

This is interesting, I don't think I ever got the chance to know who Spyro's father was. Plus I wonder if you get to see Spyro's father in the next game?

WHAT???? Blood and bad language in Spyro???? You want that, "BDK"???? This game is kid-based!!!! There will be no blood and bad language in this game. If you want a game with blood and bad language, "BDK", buy Halo, Gears Of War, etc. This game is, and always will be, kid based. There will be none of these gorry concepts in the next game
