Every wonderful bit from the classic gameplay was preserved while the visual overhauls flushed out the areas and characters to their absolute fullest potential. The imagination I had with the world and characters of Spyro became reality with stunning sounds and visuals, gorgeous backgrounds, and beautifully recreated character models that made this lovable cast even more lovable. This trilogy has always been a masterpiece for me, and now it's been given a definitive treatment for the generations who come after mine to love and enjoy as a true timeless classic. Minus some occasional frame rate glitches, these games felt exactly as amazing to me now as they did when I was young, and that means the team behind it did everything right. Without a doubt, the Spyro Reignited Trilogy is THE way to play Spyro.… Expand

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy has been a joy to play through and platinum on the PS4. Visuals are gorgeous and controls are tight and feel like the originals. My only negative is the 30 FPS and slight dips in framerate but that should absolutely NOT deter you from buying the trilogy. Highly recommend.

There are a few bugs, including a few that affect trophies, for those players who go for platinum trophies, make sure you look up the bugs first. But besides a few issues here and there, this is by far the best remake I've ever played. The graphics are simply beautiful, it feels like you're playing some kind of interactive Disney movie or something. The controls are improved, and some of the voice acting has been redone. This game is worth the money, and was one of the best games of 2018, in my opinion.… Expand

    A worthwhile remaster of the best Spyro games. Still feels like the original, with better graphics, and freshly recorded voice acting. Manages to maintain a cartoonish feel very well with the updated graphics. Everything that was good about the originals is good about these.
    EXCEPT:
    Regarding Spyro 2 (Ripto's Rage): - They rerecorded Moneybags' voice lines with the voice actor from    A worthwhile remaster of the best Spyro games.

    EXCEPT:

    Regarding Spyro 2 (Ripto's Rage):
    - They rerecorded Moneybags' voice lines with the voice actor from Spyro 3; It's still good, but the original voice actor for Moneybags was absolutely precious; He originally came off more like part of a bougie bourgeoisie, which showed the faults of his logic, but was still slightly endearing; The current voice actor's original role (3) made him more readily malicious for the sake of profit (which might be more accurate, but this is still a kid's game, essentially.); He literally imprisons your friends and then threatens to imprison you at one point.
    - They also rerecorded Hunter's voice. Originally, he came off like a stoner who kept forgetting to give you orbs and kept challenging you to games for them, which is kind of hilarious as an adult, and totally off-the-radar for kids. Again, the re-do isn't bad, but ultimately, RR lost a slight bit of it's charm here. It's still good, though! Elora and the Professor are at least as endearing as before.
    - Spyro's physics were originally different in Spyro 2 from 1 and 3. They applied the same physics to all three games, which is... not really a complaint, honestly. Spyro 2 was just one of my favorite games to speed-run and it doesn't operate the same here. It's inevitable.

    So ultimately, there's still a reason to buy the original Spyro 2. But aside from that, little differences like there being more grass to hide gems in, or more unique dragon designs, generally make this an improvement. This title did not stifle its spirit, and levels operate just as well as they originally did. I would say don't shun this if you're a fan, and give it a go if you've never tried it. Pretty fun game for kids, just going around, collecting treasures, helping magical creatures, looking for new areas.    … Expand

    Design fantastico, musiche spettacolari, si vede che c'è molto lavoro nei dettagli, gameplay favoloso, la trama dei tre giochi è molto asciutta (cosa che accade in molti platform). Unica pecca? La caratterizzazione dei personaggi è andata a quel paese: prima avevano una personalità molto più singolare che ti faceva ricordare tutti i personaggi secondari. Peccato, sarebbe stato un gioco da 10

    My score is only 9 because there are occasionally lags and make a little crush, and some of the original voices are missing, but overall, this is a fantastic remake of the game from my youth.
    Spyro 3 is the first game I've ever played and seen the remaster that Toys for Bob did for the there game. It is perfect from the unique world and enemies, and wonderful soundtracks.

    A really beautiful and colorful jump n run adventure. Also a good example of how remakes should be. The only bad thing on this game is that it does not run at 60fps, which is important for fluid gameplay especially when playing jump‘n run like games. That’s why I can’t give this game 10 points.

I'll admit after playing this remake, while I still have a soft spot for Spyro's Adventure, I enjoy this edition of Spyro loads more. The original series wasn't just game breaking for the platforming genre, but it was also responsible for crafting gameplay styles that appealed to all ages.

    This is a cartoon, fantasy adventure at its finest. It's got gorgeous colors, a good sense of visual humor, and it's inhabited by both adorable and terrifying creatures. It's a great way to release stress by exploring a big open world full of personality and pizazz...though if you're not careful, you may gain stress if you get stuck on an annoying mini game or two.

    Yeah, this trilogy may not be perfect whether you play the original or the remake. But having access to a three in one game with refined controls, legendary graphics, and catchy music can make your heart soar in the long run.    … Expand

The remastered version is great, but like all remastered games they come with more bugs and glitches than the originals. Nothing game breaking but just a little annoying like Spyro sliding to random spots after you stopped moving. Movement is even worse for the other characters in Enter the Dragon. Spyro would also temporarily get stuck to the ground and jumping was the only way to get unstuck. On a few occasions the whirlwind elevators would drop Spyro rather than putting him in a glide and could only be fixed by exiting the game and going back into it. Since they were able to be worked around, I didn't mind them to bad. It was really great to revisit these games.… Expand

This game didn't disappoint at all, the graphics are phenomenal, the combat system is just right and I had a blast playing it, so much so that I finished all 3 games at 120%, 100% and 117% each and got all the trophies. The first Spyro (9/10) is a really solid title, all the levels have a different feeling and it's just really fun to pop in and spend 2-3 hours playing it. Spyro 2 (10/10) is the definitive Spyro experience, it might be a nostalgia-related thing but I never got bored playing it and reliving all the levels I played during my childhood had me crying tears of joy. The third game (8/10) however...it's a great game, don't get me wrong, but it could've been so much more. Sure, the levels are fun, the mini bosses are fantastic, but the controls on Sheila, Sgt. Byrd ecc. just feel so clunky and out of place, I had a really hard time playing through all the different Sgt. Byrd sections and Agent 9's aiming and combat system looks like something rushed, but I have to admit that roasting Moneybags at the end of the game was truly satisfying. In conclusion, the Reignited Trilogy is a great title that deserves to be played, I think it's a must have on any system it's supported on and if you want to have fun while playing a great game from the past, this is the game to play.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A lot of fun at the cost of two controllers.

    The Spyro Reignited Trilogy is just what it says: All the three classic Spyro games, remade and packed into one disc.

    I was always fan of the Spyro games and immediately bought this one when it came out. I had fun playing all the games in order, collecting every gem, egg and rescuing all the dragons. Even got so far to collect all the PlayStation trophies the game, which was a hard but fun challenge.

    The first game was easy, and I casually finished it. It was also the game I played the most back in the day, so it was not that hard. It was just as good as I remembered. Great platforming, various levels with unique themes, fun enemies and overall, a wonderful experience.

    However, the second one, Ripto’s Rage! will always be my arch nemesis. As stated in the title of the review, I broke two controllers in pure rage and hatred (yes, I know I have problems), it is still as bad as the original game, no, much worse, I think.

    This can all be linked to one element: Hunter and his bullsh!t. All the mini games, timed stages and “fly trough hoops” challenges to get an orb (which you need) where the worst experience I ever had with a platforming adventure game in my life. They made me so mad that I broke my PS4 controllers and needed to get two new ones. The worst part was the “motivational middle finger” that Hunter gave you when you lost the challenge for the millionth time.

    His smirking, his taunting and “Skater Dude” attitude (“Hey bro, better luck next time haha”), combined with the brutal, unforgivable, criminally hard orb challenges made my life miserable. The time limit is ridiculous, and you need to be a god who can bend time and space to complete everything in the given time. The worst part was to see that ugly smiling face of that disformed excuse of a feline again, when he laughs at you and your whole family, stating he is better than you, and then motivates you to try again. It was pure torture.

    Many times, I thought: “This is just a game, why all the rage,” but then I realized I just wanted to see that stupid furball cry in defeat and shame when I finally beat his ass and drank his tears.

    So, now that that has been clarified, moving on.

    The third game, Year of the Dragon, made me calm down again and the fun and joy were back. No more Hunter and his “Hippie challenges,” now he just wants to get laid with Bianca and create some freak offspring, but that is not my concern. Yes, the “challenges” and mini games are back, but they are way less frustrating and impossible then the second game. Although still hard as bricks, it felt more like the first game in which the challenge was just right, and I enjoyed this sequel like I used to back then.

    The graphical upgrade in the Reignited Trilogy is nice and polished, however the frame rate and stuttering sometimes is terrible. There were moments in which it was almost unplayable, and I played on a PS4 Pro, so it should manage it fine.

    Collecting all the trophies in this game is my second biggest personal achievement in gaming, besides Postal 2 on Postal difficulty. The main tribute for this is, you guessed it, Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage.

    So, in short, I had fun playing the Reignited Trilogy, with the exception of the second game, which I never touch again in my life.

    Still recommend the Remastered Trilogy.    … Expand

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy is maybe the greatest celebration of a classic - ever! Gameplay still holds up, graphics are beyond gorgeous and nostalgia hits you hard, yet it feels like a first time experience. Unlike some old-school odysseys that promise warm nostalgia, reignited trilogy delivers burning hot blast from the past - for the future!

    Reignited Trilogy looks like a Pixar movie and proves that while many other genres have changed significantly over the last 20 years, the recipe for an enjoyable platformer stayed the same, at least in many aspects. Of course nowadays people expect more from any game and Spyro does feel archaic but its wise design stood the test of time, especially if you look at the remake through the eyes of a child (either literally or metaphorically).
