Comments
Dawn of the Dragon in terms of gameplay is a little better than the previous two. But in terms of the story and design I think it's a little worse.
Dawn of the Dragon was amazing and fun! I have played it multiple time and is my second favorite Spyro game next to Year of the Dragon from the original series. ^w^
I loved this game, especially Spyro's new look. He actually looked like a dragon, instead of an overgrown, weak-chinned lizard. The graphics were breathtaking for a handheld game, and the gameplay was fantastic. I would recommend this game to anyone. I have the whole Legend of Spyro trilogy, and this is by far the best Spyro game I have ever seen. I don't count Skylanders; they made Spyro look completely retarded and all but removed him from the game.
This game is actually more of a love story then a giant adventure like the other two
The last true Spyro game sob sob
Hex didn't exist during this series
Sly, you're acting ridiculous over a different Malefor.
Destroy , she stole and s way of killing
I really mean it, should be in prison for "destroying" !

Well.. It's easy with the tornado attack,
But I got to 200 with basic attacks before (it's really hard))

I must admit, it must be quite satisfying to hit a combo.
I used Cynder's Tornado ability to get a 999 hit combo.
I have this game for PS3 and j just bought it a week ago.
V I think he meant Hex.
V I'm usually not posting here, but who do you mean when you said useless character?
