I don't think that it's the dark master, why would they give away something so important so soon?? It's just concept art too, it might not even be anything! I personaly think it might be a boss.

Oh ya! There was that shiny stuff that was kinda like goo, and that showed up when you break the beer things on Skabb's ship. I really don't think that it looks even remotly like blood though. They might change it to a red color, instead of shiny purple or silver.

That dragon in the back of Spyro I think is the Dark Master.

hey i also noticed that they already had blood in the first place in ANB and TEN
when u kill the spider's and fly like things they splatter what LOOKS like blood to me
and yes cynder96 they might have little more blood like ozeing out a cut or wound now and then

#591 cynder96 19:39:52 23/03/2008
They probably won't go past a teen rating, It's made for kids after all. A little blood maybe, I mean, when Spyro killed the big Cynder, she just shrunk. For Gual, he kinda exploded in dust, who knows what kind of way the Dark Master will die. I'm just sayin that it will prob get worse and worse. Just like Dragon King said.

#587 Dragon King 01:11:07 23/03/2008
well u can see it Cynder 1500 through ANB and TEN there getting more dangerous seirous and angresive
and also is each new game these things grow more often in the story and in gameplay
i have noticed these things since day one and shuted up about it and said nothing as if i was being black-mailed by Godfather himself
also thanks cynder96 for pointing out my balance thing i never noticed *gives rose to you and a V.I.P. pass to the Dragon Kingdom)
and also your welcome Dragon Lover i should give you a V.I.P. pass to the Dragon Kingdom for a day (breakfast and other meals free)
P.S. sorry dark52 if my posting has bothered you

For the rating dispute: how can you tell this game is going for blood and bad language?
