Has any1 seen a trailer for the Spyro movie?? And do Spyro & Cynder really really really really die in the end?(Be honest) Oh yea, A legend is something that has died as a hero or the people who made it want you to think he's dead) Hopefully its the 2nd option!!!

for Tsakyz Ylum

Use Cynder and climb on the last "grass" then use Spyro and swing just like in level 2 when you escape from catacomb but this time you must swing with earth ball (hold button for earth ball) and swing to the wall.

Can anyone help me with the part where you have to get 4 crystals to open that gate in the Dragon city. I already got the 2 crystals on the right side of the gate.

Now I'm on the part where you light on 2 altar-things that stand on each side of a stone door (behind it you can see the 3rd crystal) and there comes a huge cross out of the wall, (wich you crossed earlier, to get to the stone door) where are 4 altar-things that you can light with Spyro's fire. I can't get to the highest one, I tried flying, swinging with earth boulder and then quickly changing to fire, but nothing gets me close enough :l

hopefully someone understands my description ^,=,^"
