One thing I hate is when people say something is a bad reason to like the games, like when people tell me off for liking the story in DotD, or when they think I only like Cynder for her appearence in DotD....

Those reasons are reason enough to like a game. There are no wrong reasons to like a game. If you like Cynder cuz of her appearance then that's that.

Quote: sonicbrawler182

Also, saying that something isn't a valid reason to like Spyro is absurd...

Exactly.

Cynder is my favourite fictional character, not because of how she looks in DotD, but because her character was interesting in ALL THE GAMES! She is the one character, not 3 different ones. Although I am quite fond of her appearence, especially in DotD, that doesn't dictate my opinion on her or anything. That's just not my style...

This song sums up my impression on the Spyro fanbase...

Quote: Darby

every game will be critisized, can't change that. but you shouldn't critisize other's opinions.

Nor can you hate a person for stating an opinion you don't like.

Don't hate the person, don't hate the opinion, just hate the game.

If that made any sense, you get a medal.

Well actually, I do find it absurd if someone likes Spyro just because he has orange wings.

Ok, I went to the PS Store on my PS3 yesterday to look for a copy of StD and YotD to download for my PS3, but it seems they're only available in the US store and not in the EU store (where I live), but I just read an article that StD and YotD are coming to the EU store soon, so fingers crossed it'll be real soon now I read Tekken 3 is coming too, looking forward to that too.

I just recently became a new Spyro fan HAHA Used to not like newer Spyro at all really besides enjoying ANB a good bit

I'll always love the classics the most, but I really enjoy the new ones. I love StD, RR, YotD, and DotD. ANB is good. AHT is meh. And EtD and TEN are terrible.

That's where I stand!

So... what you find so meh about AHT?

It's hard to say why in a quick statement, I would have to go full-on review HA HA I'm actually gonna do a video where I do quick reviews of every console Spyro game which I'll probably post here and you could find out!

Sure. They said PEGI (European rating system for games) finally rated the PS1 Spyro games (and a few other games) and that it'll only be a matter of time until they will be released to EU PS Store. I hope it's very soon, cuz the announcement was made August 2010.

I don't understand why that would take so long? Although... May be Activision are releasing it closer to SK's release date for more publicity, seeing as it will probabley be highly hyped game?

That may well be the case, but I hope they won't let us wait too long though, I'm dying to have the 3 old Spyro games on my PS3, I also have all the old classic Crash Bandicoot games by Naughty Dog on my PS3, Spyro and Crash Bandicoot are still my favorite classics of all time.

Haha, yup, I guess I'll just have to live with old, scratched copies, eh? Poor ol'

What I hate is when one person hates on a game cause it's "cool".

And not just in Spyro, with everything in general.

Eh? *Confuzzled*

Well, I just generally dislike ETD, at least compared to other games....just wasn't mah thing....

ETD gameplay it as good as identical to its 3 predecessors, or don't you like the first 3 games either?

ETD was glitchy, so I didn't really like it...and *in Sonic voice* "IT'S TOO SLOW!!"

Quote: sonicbrawler182

You are so right, there are indeed tons of reasons to hate it; Many glitches, very slow (Spyro and everything for that matter moves very slowly), poor character designs, characters poorly animated, etc...

I hate EtD for other reasons. I didn't enjoy it. Even if it was "cool" to like it, I'd still dislike it. And there's plenty reasons to dislike it.

I also hate when people like something that most others hate, just to be different.

Don't get me wrong, I don't like ETD either. Even though the gameplay is the same as the first 3 Spyro games, there are plenty of crappy things in this game that make it just... terrible

yeah. that makes sense.
and i agree with you.
people do that with everything and it's annoying >.>

Yeah. Not just games, either...

OMG, that's really lame I don't see what's so cool about hating games

According to some fans out there, the type of games they like, that had changed to try something different, means to them that the game they like isn't their favorite anymore since they like keeping things the same.

I also hate people who love something just because it's from a certain franchise, albeit less...

And when somebody says you aren't a true fan of a franchise just because you dislike something in it...

And no, these weren't aimed at anyone.

I hate that. I absolutely love the Sonic franchise, but I hate when the fanboys think every single thing from the series is gold. >.>

^ This. But I mostly hate people that hate something just because other people like it.

I feel your pain.
ETD is awesome, anyway. So many memories!~

It's ironic that some fans think both series Spyro fans are missing out on the franchise, when it's the one-sided fans who are really the missing all the exciting changes.

Well I'm definately not missing anything fantastic from TLoS, lol, I've been through those games once, and that's enough.

Yeah. I like TLoS, but I wouldn't say it's 'exciting'.

Although Aura, I've never heard anyone from one side say that....

I've heard Classic fans say stuff like that all the time back in 2009, on Youtube and on other Spyro forums.

Ah, but that was then. This is now. I've never seen them say that though, closest I've heard is the 'how can you like that side of Spyro' arguement we still get today sadly.

I agree. ETD was good, and I'm not afraid to say it, unlike the people who dislike it because they think it's the cool thing to do. It's way too underrated, and it's actually an enjoyable game, and I'm not even forceing myself to like it. I did at first, but now I can go ahead and enjoy it easily. The music is great and it makes me want to clap my hands to the beat. Yes, it has it's flaws like DotD, but it's still manages to be a really fun game to play. Totally worth the hours spent on it.

*facepalm* It's the same with the TLOS fans too. I've ran into far too many of them so many times that it's just not funny anymore.

I know it's the same with the LoS fans, DarkCynder, through a Classic Spyro fan's perspective. I know they haven't played the originals, due to little reasons. I don't want a war going on here, especially on this topic.

Me nether. I just wanted to point it out.

We're not as bad as you think.... I can make up a decant conversation with any classic Spyro fan no matter how much they're obsessed with the games.

I never jumped up and said I hated EtD because it seemed "cool" to do..
I just hate it because I didn't find it enjoyable. I'm not sure about others though. I don't see any proof that they hate the game because they think it's the popular thing to do?

I remember when I was young, kids at my school used to go around saying that it sucked. I asked them why, and they said amongst the lines, "I dunno. Everyone else hates it."

Ohh. Yeah. I hate when people don't give something a chance. It's like they glance at it and are like: "Ohp, yup, I hate it already."
Really?

When I first discovered TLoS, I didn't even give it a chance because I thought Spyro looked funny on the cover, and it just looked so.. different. But hey, I ended up loving it!
