They should make one that has Spyros and Cynders parents... if they have any that are still alive. Did you know that you can e-mail them and send in your ideas for games?? I did it once and i told them if it can be 2 player and that you can fly at any point during the game. A guy from the Sierra company named Blake e-mailed me back, and he said that it was possible and that he might be able to do it for the next game. Well, i e-mailed them about them when ANB just came out... so it might take a while for them to make your ideas effical ( i don't know how to spell, srry for the spelling error) Just go to the Sierra site and you can go to one of the options of the site and e-mail them... i haven't done it in a while so i might not give as much info. Your ideas have to make sense so it can be on one of the games... your'e really lucky if you get one of your ideas on the games... LIKE ME!!! smiliesmilie

Spyro123,Once you find meadow fly to where there is a large waterfall next to the tree that you can break down to make a bridge and there will be a cave there. Press the button that the game tells you to and you will be at a different part of the VOA.

OK...help please. We are trying to get the ges to awaken the four dragons to open the door to the tunnel. We are on the third gem which is in the waterfall part. There is a large emblem on the wall that spun when we started the two small dragons on fire. We lit three of the sides of the round emblem but cannot reach the top (fourth one) to light it. PLEASE help. It's driving me crazy.

Ok so I passed through the gates in Dragon City and the big Golem dude is climbing the tower. I'm now at the point where he has the crystal thingy on the left side of his face (his right). Any tips on how to get up there to smash it without getting blown away by that retarded annoying fire he keeps spitting out of his mouth?
