I loved everything about this game. The enemies, Spyro and Cynder's elements, the different levels, and everything else!
P.S. My favorite elements are Spyro's fire and Cynder's shadow.

For me there was no glitch for getting 100%, but when I go to Twilight Falls it makes high pich sounds and sometimes it shuts off. It started doing this after we got our Wii fixed.

I like this game because it has long levels, it brings one new thing you can collect, it has secret bosses, a co-op mode etc. But it change abit to much,
Sparx did need to leave
, the enemies are hard to defeat and there's no health bar at the enemies. I like this game thought.

I think Spyros Ice is the best out of all of them and Shadow for Cynder

I like the elements a lot c: Wish Spyro's Earth was more useful, though, I rarely use his boulder (but use the missiles a lot).
The flying, while not truly free and all, is pretty fun too.

Though the 99% completion glitch is annoying. :I
