look closely whe the timer says 28 seconds left(on the trailer that is on the front page) that is when you can see the dark master....i suggest going over it a couple of times and each time you can see him more clearly....its my opinion

wow okay in the new trailer right before the scene when spyro and cynder are running away from the huge wave and after were they show them looking at a huge green crystal i think that you get a short glimpse at the dark master. He is coming out of the ground and you only see his.....something of his......you can check it out if you want.

Sorry everybody but the game comes out on Tuesday the 21st and 2 days will only be the 19th . There is 4 days left before the game comes out. That timer is wrong. ( didn't I already tell everybody this a while ago?)
__________________________________________________

Wrong, Wanderist, you're only counting the days, the countdown counts the hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds, so it's correct, notice that the countdown ends 21st around 12:00 according my espectations, so it's right, three days and six hours left right now
