I agree with Purple n Spyro.

And I still don't see why everyone isn't satisfied with the ending and wants YET ANOTHER one.

This game would have been awesome if Krome made it, but nooooooo.

I don't know why so many like this game :/ but oh well.

I mean I like it, but it is BY FAR not the best IMO ^-^
