I am so gutted when I watch those beautful petals and beea and butterflies flutter past in the Valley Of Avalar, and then im here with the ps2 version, with the flat grass and hardly anything, its so annoying! 
it did the same story for cynder that it did here and sparx is a magic item.
What was the LoS storyline for Skylanders?
IKR! if only he was real......... The valley of Avalar is also about the only level where your just.....free.
I think I'm a PS2 gamer all the way. Though now they have released the PS3; which I can't afford, if any new games are released I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that they release it for wii; my only back up console. :'(
The valley of avalar was absolutley fantastic! I just loved the graphics and the music it made me feel so strange. I felt almost pride when Spyro and Cynder flew accross the valley.
Why did they get rid of the TLOS storyline for Skylander? It was so emotional and gave a lovely, involving story.
:') Loved this game. Spyro has literally influenced my entire childhood. I used to pretend and wish I was him. Still do now....

meh the glitches dont happen for me
My favourite glitch is getting stuck in the big tree in Valley of Avalar, then watching Spyro do a 'superman'. I LOL every time :3333 (PM me if you want to know how to do it)
i have the wii version. (or did i say that?) but i didnt see that. but the valley of avalar is my fave level. its so cool!
I hated the way they did the DS version.
I don't think it's a glitch, I personally like it. Notice it goes with what hes saying? "I did all the work?"

I have the Play Station 2 version of Dawn Of The Dragon too. I have two disks of it and they both do the same thing...

@purple I did once. When sparx talks in one of the cutscenes (I think it was in the cave where you find Medow) his face had a glitch and his eyes were floating at the side of him... It was funny though.
It was funny though.
i never experienced glitches in this game though.
