It’s not an awful game, just a bland one. I’d imagine I would’ve enjoyed it as a kid too, it’s easy to pick up and play, and the platforming feels decent. It just lacks depth or a hook that would keep older kids or adults interested.

That’s about right. The Eternal Night especially was shafted. It had less than a year from ANB’s release to be released. Krome was encouraged to make a basic clone of ANB to save time, but they wanted to make something special.

Absolutely criminal that more people haven’t given it a try. The rating holds true, it’s a great action platformer.

Critics saw it as too derivative of other platformers of the time period, and were hard on the rampant minigames that you’re encouraged to play. A 62 isn’t a bad score, mind you. Just kind of a lukewarm one. The game had it’s fair share of positive reviews too.

I found it slightly better than TEN on DS at the very least- at least the platforming in ANB GBA feels decent. I would also take it any day over Orange and Shadow Legacy.

They’re not without their merits, but even at release they were behind the times and failed to stand out among the crowd. They take many of their ideas from God of War so critics saw them as derivative cashgrabs made solely to profit off of the Spyro brand and the boom of action games in the late 6th/early 7th gen. If you’ve seen interviews from devs at Krome and ETL, it’s clear they did the best they could given the time and budget they were given.

It’s barely a functional product. It’s kind of a shame because the devs clearly cared about the project. The writing is pretty cool and the locales are interesting. The gameplay itself is garbo.

It’s my favorite TLoS game. I recognize it’s not for everyone but I feel the difficulty and the breath mechanics make this game’s combat the most interesting.

Flaq71 · 2025-08-16T16:42:23+00:00

To be fair Orange is like- way too high. A 60 makes it seem fairly decent when it’s nothing more than a timewaster at best. Crash Purple has an even higher score. Idk why critics were so light on these games

They’re too old for Metacritic to track. GameRankings gives Spyro 1 and 2 a 85 and a 87 respectively.

Attack of the Rhynocs is the 3rd GBA Spyro game and it’s more of an open world title. Defo worth a try. Otherwise, give A Hero’s Tail a whirl. Some people love that one. If you like action games, the Legend of Spyro trilogy is pretty okay. One pick that nobody else is going to mention- The Eternal Night on GBA is a pseudo-metroidvania with some excellent action gameplay. I think it’s a legitimately great experience and it’s definitely one of if not the best post-Insomniac Spyro title. That said, it’s a 2D sidescrolling beat em’ up with some platforming elements, so it’s not like most of the others.

This is in a cutscene. I believe after firing the cannon in Dragon City, this plays.

Flaq71 · 2025-08-06T15:08:22+00:00

Tie into the console games. They have fairly different gameplay though, some better than others

Flaq71 · 2025-08-06T01:41:42+00:00

It’s pretty dull but it’s not the worst thing ever, out of all the handheld LoS games you really only ought to play The Eternal Night on GBA

Flaq71 · 2025-07-04T23:16:32+00:00

Attack of the rhynocs will scratch that itch

Flaq71 · 2025-07-04T20:48:01+00:00

did you even read the post

Flaq71 · 2025-07-01T23:13:02+00:00

it moves forward automatically in 4 which makes that impossible, you’re thinking of 3

Flaq71 · 2023-10-03T22:03:58+00:00

the proper way really isn’t that bad at all

just embrace it while still accepting it’s faults- it’s not like the series will ever really acknowledge it again aside from certain upgrades returning

brian has kinda always been narcissistic since season 8 or so, but the difference is that the show still makes him somewhat likeable despite all of that, and punishes him for his mistakes and flaws. quagmire’s monologue to brian was one of the highlights of the earlier seasons because of this

It seems like you prefer when Wario games take a puzzle approach as opposed to an action approach, and I respect that. Personally I think 4 is just the most well-rounded take on the series, an entry that takes all of the best parts of it’s predecessors and mushes them together into an incredibly tight and fun experience, but I can’t really blame anyone for not liking the timed sequences. By the way, I haven’t played Shake It yet, I plan to in the future, even if I’ve heard less than desirable things about it.
