In this game I unlocked the element furee for cynder.

To get it you must get all of the last set of armour

YAY! Finally! Spyro can fly! I've got this game on 2 consoles, wii and ps2. Personally, i like it better on ps2 coz its in my room so i'm in private! smilie
I think spyro looks so much better in this 1. Cynder does 2, I think her elements r completley pointless, like not in real life. their cool, just pointless. smilie

I found this game to be quite mediocre and boring. If only it had been like one of the other, proper Legend games. It would have been awesome if Krome had made it but it just wasn't.
