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

    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.

    The original games are great and this remake does justice to them…atleast the first two. The third game was extremely buggy in some parts, for example the yeti skating sections are an actual mess (fortunately it’s buggy in favor of the player lol).

    Let's start by saying I have only play one Spyro game before this, called:
    The legend of spyro: The Eternal Night and that game was fine. This one, on the other hand... I don't see how anyone above 6 years old would enjoy this. I like semi-serious games like Ratchet and Clank but this one is simply too childish and thus boring, both in aesthetics and gameplay.

    It looks beautiful, although it seems a bit expensive to me, since there are few hours of play, although this saga needed these remasters

    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

    What a recreation. Sometimes advancing an old game with new graphic can feel out of place. As O.G. games are meant to be associated with their old graphics and it can make the game feel lesser when that old game has new graphics.
    But here, it feels wholly balanced. As if it was released this way. One of the best recreations I've ever played.

    If you never played the original 3 games then this is your chance to do so, with much better visuals. if you did play them then you'll know just how fun they were and you won't regret playing them all over again with a better camera and better visuals. Well worth the purchase!

I've played that game to DEATH and back in 2018, when Activision and Toys For Bob announced a remake of the original trilogy, I was hyped, I couldn't wait to re-live my childhood. 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 trilogy collection is a great way to revisit Spyro in his prime. I only played Ripto's Rage on the playstation years ago, so being able to play the all three game in one is a joy.

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

    I love this game. Excellent remake and as far as i can tell there are no relevant bugs .I don't usually enjoy platformers but this game is genuinely fun to play. the kind of game to shut off you're brain and just enjoy when after a long day. If you can get this on a sale definitely go for it.

    I never played Spyro as a kid but after a good amount of hype by a friend about the remaster I decided to give it a go and I'm glad I did.

    The gameplay in all three games is more or less the same and that is great because it's mostly good all across the board. The first game barely has any story, the second one tries a bit harder and the third maybe tries a bit too hard but none of that really matters because at their core these are collectathon games for kids and you only really need enough plot to make an excuse for all the running around you're gonna be doing.

    Spyro is fun if a bit shallow as a character and the world around him is interesting enough. When the games keep things simple it's a true joy to play but the problem is that they progressively try to put in more and more unnecessary mechanics and the more you play the more it starts feeling like a chore. At a certain point you are forced to play with other characters who aren't Spyro and they all control poorly and feel like an afterthought. The huge amount of annoying side missions and the growing amount of backtracking you have to go through the more you play is also a notable problem in the later games.

    While I would definitely recommend Spyro The Reignited Trilogy, I'd keep in mind that these are games for children after all and can become a bit too dull.

    One more thing - DO NOT play all three games one after the other like I did. I decided to go for a platinum run on all three games back to back and can surely say there is such a thing as "too much Spyro". By the end of "Year of The Dragon" I never wanted to see that purple little **** ever again.    … 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).

    An excellent choice for the upcoming Christmas holiday in the family circle. Spyro is a playful and appealing rebel who will be loved by old fans and their children as well. [Issue#291]
