You know.... There is something that I find funny in this game.

In dragon city, something fulls down and blocks Spyro, Sparx and Cynder from getting to Hunter. Hunter goes on about them finding a knew route.
All three agree and goes to find another route.

Why didn't they just fly over the thing, instead of finding another way around? Same thing with the belt of fire. They could of flown over it (Cynder's wind element can be use to keep the flames back) instead of walking through it slooooooooowly. xD

@Malefor0001

I'm not going to bother explaining this anymore, so just look at this topic instead...

Blaaah, I was dissapointed with this... alot. The ending was rubbish and I didn't fully understand it, except for the fact Spyro DIED, which makes me angry so I hope it didn't go like that. Sparx missed the ending, Malefor's apperance wasn't enough [I expected more than a boss with him] and he was far too easy.
