I think this game is so beautiful <3
I first bought it on Wii and I must admit that the gameplay is difficult and awful, I was about 9 years old :3 I then thought I would buy the PS2 version, thinking that the graphics would be better!? (I was a stupid 9 year old) and was disappointed and quickly my carelessness destroyed the disc smilie (I scratched the disc pretty bad)
So now I have the XBox360 version and its truly beautiful *.* I would recommended to anyone who is thinking about buying this game to get either the PS3 or XBox360 version, as the gameplay is so much better and the graphics are amazing!!! smilie I also love the Soundtrack with the sincere war soundtracks and the beauty of the Valley Of Avalar <3 Love this game so much <3

@TorchSheep, The only way I can see that it would look like there are lots of plotholes would be if you didn't know the stories of the other two games in the trilogy.

And really? I've read in a few places that the Co-op is a bit gimmicky. I just hope they're wrong.

I'm most likely going to obtain this game on my birthday on 10/31. I cannot wait to play it. smilie I hope it completely trumps over the terrible prequel that was The Eternal Night.

i consider this to be quite a good game but it may depend on how you like playing the spyro games my mom, for example likes the original spyro style where you collect stuff but me i just plan like spyro.
