darkSpyro

Well i did my home work and found out the year i was born Spyro was made. No wonder I have been playing for as long as i can remember. how cool. but after Spyro Dawn of the Dragon or DOTD, i have been able to find nothing on the next Spyro game or movie, and i am getting worried. Spyro is to young to die! ( sniff, sniff)

Spyro may die, but his legend will live on.

I kind of got a sneaky feeling that they are going to at least make one more Spyro game. I pity the possible outcome though, as in I know fair enough a piece of my dreams. As in Imagine an extra PS1 game coming to town sort of thing. Yet the Spyro graphics may look old or contain bugs on a PS3.

^What?

Id be pretty surprised if they didnt make a new game, they said there would be more anyway, so I wouldnt worry too much.

Spyro didn't die at the end of DotD, and it's been confirmed that there are more Spyro games going to be made. DotD is the last game of the trilogy, but not the last Spyro game.

I also think there is going to be one more game.

Mike Graham confirmed that there are going to be more Spyro games being made in the future. Not "one more spyro game", but more Spyro games.

I don't know, many people have confirmed of continuing stories but failed to proceed them. But if you say that ill trust you and see

Yeah, I'd say it's going to take a miracle for Spyro to be a decent game... provided Activision plans on releasing a new Spyro game.

On the offhand, there have been people making games that are cheap to them and not as cheep to us. And for no clear reason, a good company makes cheap games that sound good to the consumer. Yet was made junk to us, but it could still have a good story and appeal. But have a lot of sneaky problems. This is why we make sure that all of your money is spent on products that are made properly, not just laziness. Which could be the main problem when we go on to the next Spyro game.

Spyro could actually be stuck with lazy jerks who don't care too much about the consumer, but on their riches.

Oh I have one thing to mention, Since Insomiac sold Spyro to Activision. The Spyro games went down hill from the first game after Spyro went to Activision. This makes you wonder, what did Insomiac do wrong, the answer, the lack of homework.

From what I know Spyro was not sold by Insomniac ,he was sold by Universal who had his licence the whole time, Insomniac just made the games .They couldn't decide anything...
Correct me if I'm wrong...

But yeh, ever since they sold him things went pretty much downhill for Spyro
and then there was the reboot...(completly unneccesary IMO,I mean the Spyro games of that time were NOT sucking SO badly that they had NO other choice but to completely reboot the whole thing...)

Actually the Universals was bought up by a French company, and the Spyro franchise came with them.

Actually, Universal Interactive owned the Spyro license and collaborated with Mark Cerny of Cerny Games, Inc. and Insomniac Games in creating the Spyro trilogy, but the games were published by Sony Computer Entertainment America. When Insomniac announced they were taking a break from Spyro to make Ratchet & Clank, Universal withdrew Insomniac as the developer. Universal Interactive was bought out by the larger, rapidly expanding Vivendi Universal which bought out the licensing and publishing rights to Spyro from UI and SCEA. So VU published Spyro, but continued using the Universal Interactive name. When VU was hitting shaking financial grounds, it sent Spyro to one of its many subsidiaries, Sierra, for future publishing. Unfortunately, the situation only got worse financially for VU, which led to the Activision-Vivendi Merger in 2008. As a subsidiary of VU, Sierra was absorbed into Activision as part of the merger.

If I had to guess, I'd say Sierra will continue publishing the Spyro games (as in, they will be credited during the game's start-up sequence), but Activision will simply place its logo on future Spyro game boxes. I doubt they'll get any more involved than that. <.<;

Vivendi was the French company I refered to (the Universal part was added after they bought Universal Interactive).

1. i was born a year before the purple legend and ever since the first game was made my mom pre-ordered it and 2. OH CRUD PLEASE DONT ITS THE END NO NO NOOOO!! *hugs spyro plushie for the rest of the day* no no no it cant be!

Read the above posts, they didn't. Rather, they were bought out.

oh woops sorry i just read the title of topic and went bezerk hehe... but still i dont believe it

Now if I were a main company, I would buy back a game immediately after a company does poorly on a game. Rather come down to this disaster in the future, and face the outcome of angry fans.

You pretty much just summed up DotD for me. Of all my games, that one was probably the game I wish the most I wouldn't have paid full price for. $50 was a rip off for a crappy game. If I had wanted something like DotD, I would've just went on to Netflix and watched Lord of the Rings for free >.>

Indeed =/

That's why I sold DotD back and got a full refund. ^.^b

I would've done that, but I bought it brand spankin' new from GameStop, and that means no returns.

the first one i saw was $40 (and it was the first day it sold) then, about a week later, i found it used at a hastings store for $30. AND hastings gives you a refund or exchange if it's not working. lucky me

back on teh topic now:
i don't think this is the end of Spyro. They might just be busy making the movie...

Fun fact about video game based movies:

Rarely to the publishers/developers/staff on a video game franchise work with the staff of the movie. Most VG staff immediately regret a movie being made about their game. Shigeru Miyamoto himself, when asked about the Super Mario Bros. movie in the 90s, said he had nothing to do with the idea and regretted the movie ever being made.

<.<;

Oh and the Mario game is popular, Spyro isn't as popular. More like Spyro really isn't even close to being as popular as Mario.

That's why I don't even watch VG movies anymore >.> Both Resident Evil: Extinction and Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within made me lose faith. Though the Prince of Persia movie looks interesting - Albeit, it's hardly based off the games.

If spyro is going to die I... I.. Waaah!

Spyro died only in the TLoS Games, but they will continue making more Spyro games.

He didn't die in the LoS games, Free Bird. He was alive at the end of DotD.

I thought he did. I also thought that those were the spirits of Spyro and Cynder.

No, Spyro and Cynder were flying right over the Valley of Avalar.

I know that. But how did they escape. When Ignitus came to Spyro he said something about "when a dragon dies, it does not truly leave this world. It's spirit stays bonding itself with nature and hope for the future" or something like that. I thought he died? I'm confused.

Yeah, but when the Chronicler looked in the Book of Death,which when each time a dragon dies, a new page is written in the book, he didn't find Spyro and Cynder amoung the pages. So they're still alive, and survived.

But how?

Who knows? They probably flew out of the earth's core through the cracks. You know the world is now cracked since Spyro used his power to put the world back together.

Probably. Yes I did know that the world was cracked. It's pretty cool how they survived.... somehow.
