I remember seeing this somewhere before, I can't understand why it would be in a random game like this, and how the developer managed to get away without copyright, is there something that Universal or Insomniac hid from us Spyro fans? They must have asked permisssion surely.

I really would like to know why they referenced so many video games, if you are telling the truth, and how they were allowed to do that, perhaps back then, the copyright was not as strict as now?

Well...The only advice I could give you is google...
Or they had permison from the game companies. (<--Stupid thought)
But honestly I have know idea.

Yes, I guess I could research more into it, but I've got a feeling I won't find much information about it though, but then again I could be wrong.

If anything, they must have had permission.

This game makes nods to tons of popular games. To see Spyro in it shouldn't be that unusual (considering the date the game was made).

It actually isn't. It's real alright.

What is Spyro wearing in a third picture? I guess it's just a random helmet that those viking characters wear. The second picture looks nothing like Spyro, just that the colour matches.

#24 Posted: 21:42:41 13/08/2011
It was apperntly proven to be Spyro..

It's just that the wings look nothing of his design, and a random beak on the end of the nose? Like I said for me, the only thing is the colour; purple that resembles cuddly little Goonro.

The first picture is funny, and has more of a reference, because of the red wings attached and the face on the boat, lol. Also the horns and underbelly are alike.

Honestly the fist and thrid pic bring more of a resmblance, like SSF said.


Not to mention the tail.

I adore the third picture of Spyro, he just looks so awesome, and angry, not to mention cute, even more cute with that helmet on.

Classic Spyro is always going to be the first cutest Spyro gen. Hands down.

I like the boat just alittle bit more.

That's just due to opinions, and my opinion, and yours just happen to agree that the design of the original Spyro design is cute and by far the best.

The boat is great because it is different.

Well, Yes it is just an opinion.

I do think the bird is Spyro, but there is barley and likeness..

I think the first three Spyro designs are all very similar really, the big difference I see between Spyro 1 and to 2 and 3's design is that he is a lot smaller. In 2 he is just angry all the time, and in 3 he always has wide eyes.

Well it was also when 3D platforming had come around. So the desingers were trying to make him look better with the evoution of gaming.

I suppose it was sort of advertising in a way. Like when there is a demo of Crash on a Spyro game, and vise versa.
