TLoS is not too dark the originals were just borderline childish, but then again arent we all

#10934 DashFire61 23:19:36 03/10/2012

OVERRATED, just because you don't like it doesn't mean its overrated, its rated the way it is because its fanbase is bigger.

#10933 DashFire61 23:18:08 03/10/2012

I really loved this game it was needed, the previous ones before TLoS were way too similar for way to long and the depth and slight darkness added to the game really immersed you into the world and made you care about the charaters.

#10932 spyroatwarfang 23:16:15 03/10/2012

wat do you mean by over rate?!

#10931 Purple n Spyro 21:19:00 03/10/2012

I really hate how everyone overrates this game..

#10930 spyro_cynder88 16:16:49 03/10/2012

In the LoS Cynder is known as "the black dragon, terror of the skies" but then in DotD they made her more of a dark purple.

#10929 dusk dragon 23:23:15 02/10/2012

#10928 Skylander Man 01:49:27 02/10/2012

#10926 DragonDog 23:31:12 01/10/2012

@spyro_cynder88 well this game was to dark.... and well... the only time there was a dark moment in the classic (1-5) games (and well yeah...) was boss fights... (I play classic and skylanders)... Don't report me for saying this but..... I really don't like (Like almost hate it....ALMOST) the legend of spyro games....like.... The story changed like... BOOM!

#10925 Purple n Spyro 21:14:59 01/10/2012

I wish they continued from Shadow Legacy... Though I hear that it was -insert companies name here-'s way of turning over to LoS. If you think about it, it adds up at some point.

#10924 spyro_cynder88 14:19:32 01/10/2012

If you think about it all Spyro games have a dark moment. I think Spyro Shadow Legacy was darker than LoS.

#10923 spyroatwarfang 23:09:14 30/09/2012

best spyro game eva for me like ten times better than skylanders!

#10922 DragonDog 18:56:07 30/09/2012

The legend of spyro series just seems sad dark and a unhappy place..... (go to you happy place DragonDog! Thats better... Idol springs... ahh....)

#10921 Purple n Spyro 05:12:29 30/09/2012

Realized I love this trilogy too...

Go LoS!
