This game IS AWESOME!
I just wish SpyrotheDragon would stop Spamming! Saying that Avalar is in underwater ruins? Weird! And saying Ripto is gonna be returning!

SpyroDragon, in future, stay away from him!

"If you want to have conversations please use the forum rather than the comments page. Thank you."

Just posting it again so a particular someone sees it more clearly from Dark52's post.

And I completely agree with DARK CINDER
"To Spyrothedragon: Can you please just STOP with the spam?

We all know that Spyro reminds you of you.

DotD hasn't even come out yet! STOP saying that you know the ending.

STOP saying that Cynder will die! The game is co-op and non-linear. How can you go back and replay the levels if Cynder dies?

None of us know what the next Spyro game be."

Here's an off topic comment I've been meaning to say: I think that When DotD comes out, DarkSpyro will either become incomprably busy with posts and topics, or it will be a dead zone since everyone is playing the game.

WELL i think ALL in america will leev so it would be vertually dead like with TeN it felt like i was the only one on the site caz im from the UK

Okay, SpyrotheDragon, Ripto isn't even in this game. He doesn't know Malefor, and there is no Riptonia. In Spyro2: Ripto's Rage, Ripto said he would take over Avalar and rename it Riptonia, but Spyro defeated him and it never happened.

To SpyroDragon: Look to the right hand side of this page. You should see something near the top that says message board. Click on it and then you can make a topic where you can continue this conversation with SpyrotheDragon.

SpyroDragon: I think Avalar is included, I'm not sure. =(

SpyrotheDragon: Stop saying Cynder will die! It's annoying. I agree with DARK CINDER.

And a Spyro game after DOTD????? Yes, probally, but like no one would know what it's called! Plus why would a game have songs in it?

CRAZY! Please stop spreading Ur spam around! It's Annoying!
avatar
#3437 Malefor001 12:26:54 22/08/2008
It's IMPOSSIBLE for Cynder to die! She's become part of Spyro's life now! Plus it would ruin Co-op mode!

#3436 SpyroDragon 12:11:38 22/08/2008
Is Avalar included?
If U get a pic of Hunter plzz POST IT AS SOON AS U CAN!
I CANNOT WAIT!
