#9928 Gem-A-Knight 07:09:57 15/02/2012

Uhh, (Spyro is awesome) I don't kow who told you it was rated M but, no, it's rated E for everyone, it even shows it on the cover of the game for the wii up at the top of this page.

#9927 Spyro is awsome 06:10:43 15/02/2012

@SuperSpyroFan so.... you weren't trolling I guess I'm sorry

and the spell check was on the frits or something

#9925 LevanJess 21:09:39 14/02/2012

Alright, that cliche part I agree with.

And you're right. Skylanders sucks just because it replaced your wonderful LoS (when it had a fine ending already). Wonderful logic.
I'll go more into detail once I'm done practicing my sarcasm./

#9924 SuperSpyroFan 20:06:31 14/02/2012

@cynder124: Were the capitals really needed seriously? LOL You're so niave, just because one Spyro game let's you have two players means that it's the best one ever? If you think like that then Skylanders should be your best game ever since you can play as more characters and you can still have two players with you. If you paid close attention to the story Ignitus says that he didn't find Spyro or Cynder in the book so that means they are not dead and that at the end of it they are flying in the Valley of Avalar. So no, it's not really sad, it's cliche. I must admit the storyline was rushed and that's why you have misunderstood it, are you really sure it's your favourite game of Spyro? Forget about the two player, think about the actual gameplay and compare it to other Spyro games.

I HATE SKYLANDER'S THERE'S ONLY THREE DRAGONS THAT I LIKE , ANYWAY WHY DID THEY WANT TO END THIS!!!!!!!!!??????
spyro the dawn of the dragon was the best game ever and two players and play it.
OMG spyro and cynder died at the end !!!!!
the ending was sad. ;-(

@LevanJess: Okay, let me give a positive to the game. The first three levels I really like, and I thought this game was going to be a lot better than the previous two. Better graphics, better level design and combat. Also the collectibles are quite fun to collect, and I like the blue switch keys you can pick up, that breaks it up a bit from the combat. The Valley of Avalar is definitely a breath-taking level, I thought that the game was going to get a lot better. There was so much to do in that level and it was fairly big too. After that level, it seemed to go downhill greatly and ended up sucking just like TEN. The Ruins of Warfang and the Floating Islands are interesting concepts I must admit.

#9921 LevanJess 11:37:36 14/02/2012

Negative opinions are never allowed, I guess.

#9920 SuperSpyroFan 11:10:02 14/02/2012

@ Trix Master 100: Burtial? Don't you mean brutal? Please learn how to spell, you sound more like a troll than I ever will according to your grammar.

I'm entitled to my own opinion, and the

is because I knew something like this would happen, but nothing will happen to the ones that say "I like this game

#9919 LevanJess 03:30:39 14/02/2012

I guess I can see where they're getting at.
I don't see it as 100% off topic, because it's about someone countering a negative post about DotD. But it isn't about the game itself.
But it doesn't help commenting it. Please, let Dark handle it. This page has seen a lot worse...

#9918 CynderFan1309 03:21:30 14/02/2012

OMG SUM1 H8S DIS GAM!111! THEY MST B TROLLIN THEN

Logic for babies.

And it's off topic, even though it's about someone's negative opinion about this game... Baaaaw me a river, would you?

#9917 LevanJess 03:17:30 14/02/2012

1. I meant the "

" face is a joke. Get it?

2. How so? It's still about DotD. It's just countering a post countering a negative opinion about DotD.
Besides, it's no worse than talking about random cartoon shows, is it? Mind your own business.
