I hope Spyro and Cynder don't hit each other in the game, otherwise critics will start complaining about the co-op issues, and might take it away. I'm sure glad Sierra listens to it's fans and not reviewers.

Happy Tree Friends sucks! That abysmal show is disgusting! This is a Spyro site so either talk about Spyro or leave.

To Cynder_543,
No, Thats not the Dark Master nor that lava looking monster is. If u played The Eternal Night, when The Chronicle told u stories about spyro and Cynder, he also told u stories about Malefor himself and showed u pictures of him during the cutscenses.

And to everybody else,
Those screens with the person hangin in the back that We all say is Hunter, i've founded out it wasn't him. The guys at Sierra say it was not him. That site ive told you about back in my messages go there 2 find out.

That's gross ironmandragon. I think I've seen happy tree friends. So what you're saying is that Spyro is going to sucumb to the darkness and hurt the people he loves?

To Ironmandragon,
This is a Spyro site, Not a Happy Tree Friends site, first of all I found that show gross, next I found it immature, and final I find it taunting children's shows(Dora, The Backyardagains, etc.). So find a more less gross, less immature, and less taunting show, like Family Guy, but why r u still here if ya don't like Spyro, Did u look up that rule i've told u about. Just tell us why ya don't like him, We're waiting.
