I looked at the Gamestop link and searched Spyro on their site, but saw nothing about "Darkest Hour". Where is it?

mario has been going for 20 years, spyros been going for 10. what makes you think that spyro can't go another 10 years? The sierra company knows that everyone loves him, and i bet they'll keep making more games.

your first time battling malefore was hard, but once you do it over and over again, it's so easy! and the part that i love about the ending is the Cynder whispers to Spyro, "i love you..." i cried!! smilie

do you really think they're gonna make a movie??
Spyro and Cynder didn't die, right?

i'd say Dragon city was the hardest. for the war, there was so many things to do like recharging the cannon, going back and forth, but... ya it was awesome
