Spyro does look old and sorta strange, could be his neck that looks so weird. I wish Krome made this game, Spyro looked better in the first two LoS games.

I wish this game was made by Krome. And I wish it was called the Darkest Hour. I mean, waaaay better then Dawn of the Dragon. Plus their Krome designs were awesome!

I think she would have looked better in this game if she wasn't so skinny and had a more dragon looking mouth.

1. Because she has a right to give her opinion, negative or positive

2. Cynder looks worse in this game, I mean, she's a twig, her legs are too big and sag, her bird beak looks stupid, etc.

I totally disagree with you! She has some flat ugly nose with some miniture horns and looks like such a big baby in Ten! She looked best in ANB when she was corrupted but she looks kind of similar to that look in DotD and I really like that look!! Also! Yeah! Why do you post here if you don't like the game!

CYNDER is Only a Frankinstein of her former Self.

To me Cynder looks best in TEN. Youknow if I don't like the game why do I even post here? smilie
