Spyro the Dragon

The Games Cabin (8.5 out of 10)

Spyro the Dragon might be old and dated now, but trust me when I say it’s still worth playing. The gameplay is sharp and easily stands up to modern games of the same genre, even giving a longer play time than most modern games. The graphics may be a bit naff, but if you can look past the fact that Spyro was born into a pre-HD world, you’ll love the adventure and I can guarantee you’ll be coming back for more. It’s a classic, pure and simple, and if you have any interest at all in gaming, you’ll be heading over to the Playstation Store to make the best purchase you’ll likely make for the rest of this year.

Console Obsession (8 out of 10)

Spyro the Dragon may not be the most challenging 3D platformer, although it’s charismatic and never any less than enjoyable to play, and certainly proves itself to be an ideal entry point for those new to the genre. There’s a lot to like in this magical world, and, with all that said, it’s not difficult to see why the little purple dragon and his games became so very popular in the first place.

Das hörte sich jetzt zum Ende hin schlechter an, als es ist. Spyro the Dragon hat seine Schwächen, ja, aber dafür trumpfen die Entwickler auch mit vielen Ideen auf, was man besonders am Leveldesign feststellen kann. Demnach kann man sich das Spiel ruhig anschauen ohne etwas zu bereuen, nur die Ruckler und das zum Ende hin immer eintöniger werdende Gameplay stören.
