    Great Platformer!

    I fondly remember playing Spyro with my friend, recently i decided to start playing it again.

    If you compare this game (Spyro 2) to the more recent titles, this game is so much more enjoyable.
    Spyro 2 adds some new concepts that were not included in the original.
    Now Spyro can Swim, Climb and Headbash. Swimming was something that the franchise needed.
    In Spyro there are 3 worlds. These worlds contain levels where you will complete tasks for the inhabitants of that level, they will reward you with a Talisman for completing the primary quest and orbs for the secondary quests.

    There is also alot of stuff to collect, there are 55 orbs and alot of gems.
    To learn skills like Swim and climb you need gems, you can also pay gems to open bridges, doors ect.

    Although the Graphics are quite bad compared to the recent releases, the  gameplay is a million times better.

Though it's been more 12 years since its release (and it certainly shows), Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage still holds up as excellently as it did 12 years ago. With it ...

      Positive: - excellent gameplay – smooth controls – tons of bonus missions and stuff to collect – fun boss battles – great level design -Negative: - a couple levels really aren't too great – looking around doesn't work as well as it should -Spyro the Dragon was a big success on Sony's PlayStation for many reasons: its excellent platforming gameplay, smooth controls, and tons of stuff to collect. Naturally, a sequel was released a year later: Ripto's Rage. This game further excelled areas that the...
