lol nice one newt42
that does sound like a good idea
also its true they MIGHT go with T rating cause the Spyro games ARE getting more VIOLENT then the older ones (exepte Shadow Legacy cause it had a WHOLE LOT of VIOLENCE)
and i hope they make a Shadow Legacy 2 as well (just a little side project for Serria) and then carry on with a new game for "The Legend of Spyro" games

Yay! What my plan is, is to wait untill all three of the Legend of Spyro games to come out before I buy them. So then I could buy them for the PS2, and then not have to wait for a sequel when I finish a game! YAY!!!

all im saying is that...well we dont know the series is getting more *darker* and they might go higher with a teen rating cause most of the worlds games are going to *T* or *E-10*
for example Shadow the Hedgehog remember how Sonic started out as kid based series well untill Shadow the Hedgehog came out it had bad language (and guns smilie) so who know...maybe one day the series WILL have the teen rating and then everyone will the game then (also reminder
(1). I DONT OWN A 360 BECAUSE THEY BREAK EASY
(2). I DONT LIKE HALO OR GEARS OF WAR!!! THEY LOOK LIKE THEY SUCK AS HELL!!!)
anyways i didnt say HOW much blood or how much bad language nor did i say gore either...was thinking more like drops and SMALL PUDDLES of blood not like *Clive Barker's Jericho* blood
so i rest my case and goodbye
