Don't you just miss those gem containers/boxes/crates/vases that each had its own way of being operned?

Yep. RIP Containers.

They were kind of in DOTD... There were those little baskets that had spirit gems in... But yeah, I do miss them...

Yeah, they're alright. It made the game more interesting.

*sigh* I miss little things like that. I also miss the big, klunky, colorful version of the gems. Who else?

*raises hand* I do. D;

*Raises hand* Me too!

Spyro's animation looks more realistic than DOTD, when he is breathing in DOTD he looks like he's trying to hump the ground

Oh god!

Eww ground humper

i miss em too!

Breaking containers feels fun actually. Seeing them shatter and retrieving a gem from it feels addictive. Flame or charge, it's good. :3

Ironically, while I looked at this thread, I came up a new extension of using containers. Like if you run and break 10 containers in a row without stopping, you received all the gems. If not, you have to start all over again as the broken containers reappear. Just throwing an idea. :p

Good idea, but I can imagine that it will get annoying later on...

I miss the containers too, i especially liked the headbash ones

In favor of ground humping Spyro

Any old ground humping Spyro will do!

And Cynder looks like she dancing

bump.

Loved the containers, they were fun to break and original.

I miss them too, it was fun to smash into them.

Thanks for the reactions you two. I had another idea about containers, but that was like a few months ago. It's a charge-proof container -- basically the opposite of a metal container. You can only flame it to break the container, not charge at it.

If there was a level dedicated to those containers, it would consist of caves full of containers -- which each section like a puzzle to get around the stuff while breaking those objects. And the only thing that will hinder you is the low hit points you can get from the cave, since there's rarely any butterflies inside. Just throwing another idea, but as a level. x3

I miss how they used to explode when you hit them.

OH! Does anyone remember the boxes of fireworks that used to fly into the air and break when they fell when you flamed them? They should have rooms full of those containers, but instead of breaking they should fly up and EXPLODE and then rain gems down on you, blowing up one after another. They did that before with the breaking boxes and it was awesome!


Speaking of fireworks, does anyone remember the monsters in the level Bamboo Terrace from Spyro 3 which had rockets on thier backs? Remember how you could flame the rocket and send it flying into a wall? good times, good times!

they existed in Spyro 1 ya know

How about ¨containers in mythbusters-explosion style?

lol mythbusters explosion style *KABOOOM!*

I guess I do especially the sound effects they make when you destroy them.

and the sounds of the gems popping up, with the next count sounding one pitch higher.

Yeah, I like that too.

oh hey remember the armored containers that couldn't be broken by regular means of flame or bash? Yeah, those were awesome cuz there was always another way to break it.

Another improvement to the already awesome containers.

Some required Keys didn't they? Like in Y.O.T.D The tiki world? there was a run way that you had chase the egg thief's and at the beginning of that level there was a container with a lock on it? Right?

I always used to run over the supercharge and just destroy the crate that way.
Anyone remember the boxes in Spyro one with the fanst on them that you had to continually flame to get them to break? Or the crates with bull's eyes on them in Spyro 3?

ahh... the good ol days
