I finished it, but nw I'm just playing it for a second time in order to get 100%


It was a great game, the game play wasn't that confusing as I thought it would have been. I got stuck once and that wa sin the Burned lands, because I had no idea where to go....lol I was lost


Vices:

1. Glitches where Sparx looked wierd in Avalar and sometimes the characters got stuck.

2. It wasn't long enough....lol I wanted it to last a little longer

3. Malefor should of been like fighting the golem, with multiple times and he was a little easy to beat.

4. Volteer's voice sounded really weird, very old like. I miss his fast talking self......oh well. All the others sounded fine.

5. More of the other guardians should have talked more. Only Cyril and Volteer said something once while Ignitus and Terrador hogged the spotlight (chatty cathy smilie) Not that I hate them....or anything

6. Flying was a bit frustrating at times because tryign to land on small narrow platforms was tricky because I kept missing it alot making me fly back up (not a big deal).

7. When you went back to find collectibles in chapter mode, they made you start the chapter all over again which made you play the level from the beginning just to find what you missed. (Spirit gems, Crystals, and most of the armor wasn't a problem to get once you know where everything is when you play that level in story mode, but the epic bosses because at the earlier levels, I wasn't strong enough making me go back).

8. Only 3 bosses (more more....lol)


9. Could have been more challenges and puzzles to solve, didn't feel like there was enough.


10. Sparx's voice was wierd and too low for me. Unusual change too Brady


Virtues

1. Great graphics even on the PS2

2. It wasn't easy and it wasn't impossible

3. Awesome new breath abilities and how you can press different buttons to make them do stuff.

4. Awesome new way of doing boss fights, but same idea nonetheless

5. The flying was great and fun.

6. Playing as both Spyro and Cynder was fun too, I made sure I played as both of them equally

7. Fury Breath getting to be used like the other breathes (great for the big enemies and the epic ones) Warning: Its very short even with full mana it will last only for 2 seconds but does a massive amount of damage, take down epic bosses faster than you can say bye-bye baby....smilie

8. Getting to go back and explore

9. Having things to collect and getting galleries to unlock like in TEN

10. Having crystals to upgrade your max mana and health just like with armor in TEN

11. Armor for added bonuses and abilities (My fav were fury breath (obviously) and nuclear and poison hit for Cynder and Spyro as you completed first set).

12. Voice for Cynder was well choosen to fit her perfectly (though she was a little bit bratty near the beginning). smilie

13. Cynder was a strong independent female, I thought instead of a damsel in distress, I found her more useful than Spyro in a lot of palces. Her poison breath beat Spyro's fire by a long run, because it spread as you shot it. (splash damage) She was also perfect for combos, especially with the wind tornado (lasted longer) The most hits I got out of her were 468!!!! while for spyro only 167 smilie (still good though)

14. Despite Sparx's sudden voice change, he had many funny moments and I got used to it after awhile so I guess I can't complain. It was ad that he got left behind but when sparx made that huge frown, I couldn't help but laugh and feel bad for him at the same time...... lol


15. Great story line (cheesy in some parts but overall it was awesome) especially in the end and after the credits, really made me sit there and wonder how awesome that was,.....lol


Random Things that were weird yet great add to the game nonetheless:

1. Ignitus turning blue and his voice changed after credits (Loved the idea afterwards that he became the chronicler but first time seeing him blue was unusual for me, I got used to it in the end and really liked the idea)


2. The hermit was really creepy so I hit him with a poison hit because he hurt Cynder's feeling.......once again random o.o

3. Cynder saying "I love you" to Spyro in the end was really unexpected because I knew that many were SpyroXCynder fans, but I didn't know that they would actually do it. In truth I thought it was really sweet and cute.......maybe cute isn't the word, but whatever...eheheh

4. Malefor's voice changed a bit when you fought him compared to when he was talking in Warfang through the crystal....or whatever that was. I thought his voice when you fought him was better...but why did they change it .....it might be just my hearing ......lol


Overall I rate the game as 9 out of 10...maybe even higher

What do you guys think??


Edit: Dang that was a long review.......srry.

FINALLY! Someone who likes Cynder's voice!!!

Yes, a lot of pros. I count Activision is the best company for Spyro.
