I think this will probably be better for me to have a copy of this on the PS2, rather than the 360.

I've only played the 'Wii' version. For those who have played multiple versions, which one do you think is the best one?

Surprisingly enough, I've played this game on every console that it had come out on, and I must say, the PS2 version is by far the best mechanically. If you own a PS2, it is a lot of fun. Avoid the 360 version. It has bad camera bugs and will often get stuck in bad angles.

Spyro and Cynder don't die at the end, if you watch at the end of the credits, another cutscene appears, and you see Ignitus as the Chronicler, and he wonders where Spyro is, and he seems to have a vision of them flying through the Valley of Avalar.
