i this NOT gonna be the last game ever

its only the last game for the T-R-I-L-O-G-Y-!
there gonna continue making Spyro games i assure you that 100 o/o
i mean why would they just end something this good and kill the seires as if it was all like a fireworks display

they would drown in millions among millions of dump-truck loads of complaint letters
and they would lose there most vaulable mascot for Seirra and there reputation ($_$ and money $_$) then eventually go out of buisness

and so i ask you..........do you think Spyro is gonna die in a buisness way?
or live and stand his ground and remain his place as mascot ($_$and money-maker$_$) for Seirra!!
*crowd claps and i bow* thank you people i love too (in a friemdship way!)

#1736 Dragon King 22:25:58 22/05/2008
man when this game comes out


ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh man they better watch out because im the most aggresive Spyro player

i love the games alot but i keep em to myself because it would be a shame for me playing kiddy like games even my mom puts me down some times because of what i like.....oh well beggers cant be choosers

but when i look at DotD i see a whole new expereince for non-fans and those who think i should be ashamed of myself

and that is in 137 days (when DotD is released!!!)

To Spyro LUVA:
Ya it kicks @$$.........but will not be twice as good as DotD
also Spyro LUVA (and everyone else)
Do you think Spyro and Cynder should be in the next Super Smash Bros. game????
i mean think about it Mario and Sonic vs Spyro and Cynder that would be the most awesome match ever

That was acool video but when it said Spyro's final battle will be one thing...Defeating the Drark Master, I would have said 'Awesome' instead of what they said.

Okay, enough arguing about Spyro's No.1 fan, it is a foolosh arguement. Spyro knight you need to chill and lay off the disturbing imagery. SpyroGirlCrazy, if you are interested in seeing some awesome fury pics, you should look for a message board called Spyro's Ultra Fury! Be aware though that none of those pics are official.
I have been playing Brawl as well Dragon King! Isn't it awesome?!

I think the purple bar in the gallery pictures show that their will be fury and that I think cynder and spyro will do one at the same time ......I think

Too SpyroGirlCazy and Spyro Knight... well, you can only own as many games that have been made, lol. Unless you own multiple copies of the same game. So if we have every Spyro game(not including Japanese) we all pretty much have the same amount as the other person. Yeah, I know I'm nit picking, but that's just me.
