    The classic gameplay with exquisitely done animation and graphics. Highly recommended for those who played the trilogy back in the day and for anyone who wants to get into the trilogy now. Perfect production all around!

    This is an outstanding remaster in the same vein as Crash Bandicoot. It stays true to the originals with only the major graphic overhaul and some minor improvements in other areas (mostly menu related). The controls are fluid and responsive, nothing feels stiff at all. The price for all three games is damn good.

The controls are fluid and responsive, nothing feels stiff at all. The price for all three games is damn good. Spyro was the first Playstation game I got back in the 90s and I loved it then, and it was strange realizing how dated the polygons looked when I tried revisiting it a few years ago. The dragons look fantastic. Being able to play this is a dream come true.

    These games aren't difficult by any means nor are they terribly long. If you played the Crash Bandicoot remaster then know this follows a similar formula as do most PS1 platformers.

    The flight levels could give some people trouble but that's about it. You have to be perfect with some objectives. These games are remembered for their fantastical elements and whimsy, not brutal difficulty. Most people would probably rate this an 8-9, but I give it a 10 based purely on my own nostalgia of the franchise and how grateful I am that we got an honest remaster without bloating the game with extra content to make it seem relevant. It knows what it is and doesn't try to be anything more.    … Expand

    Only negative is not having all the content on Disc. Game is pretty big and the music probably adds alot. You get both the remastered and original music. Both are glorious for these 3 games. Such a well remade Remaster!

    Absolutely legendary. This is more like a remake then remaster. I’ve never played the originals, but after completing all 3, I can say it’s on the same level as even odyssey in a lot of ways. The worlds are gorgeous and gameplay is a joy. Hopefully they make a new one and keep it going

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy is the hopes and dream of lot of gamers, than dreams with a Videogame Created By Love and Care, And Even Week and Month, Toys for Bob is showing to us that love and care... Re-Making a beautifull trilogy piece by piece, pixel by pixel, phonema by phonema...

    It is true than in all these Love, it was hard to fit on a only disc, but, How Many Human Games Like Shooters or Whatever have a Weight of 60 or More GB, and their discs are only an installer stuff... Even the Memory Problem, Spyro could fit the First game (the Longest One) and some levels of the Others 2...

    Spyro is an Amazing Character who has an amazing Franchise, than deserves more love and care... And Toys for Bob Steps up the first step...

    Even, in my Gaming Experience, Compared to Another 3D Plattformers from that Generation, Spyro can make a good balance between exploring world and the collectables to collect, And That's the Point on the 3D Platform game-style...

    Even if you doesn't Know About Spyro, You must Buy it, Because is a Piece of Living Story, an beautifull story from the past, and an actual story, Where a Dragon can Show the gamers, than the Quality is beyond the Human Graph...    … Expand

    I am quite surprised and confused by the negative reviews towards Spyro and complain about the big download size. You can play the first game while the other two are downloading, I don't see the issue here. There are countless other games in this console generation that require huge downloads in order to play, I didn't realise this was still such a big deal for people.

There are countless other games in this console generation that require huge downloads in order to play, I didn't realise this was still such a big deal for people. I also thought it was very clear before purchasing that only the first game was on the disc, so people shouldn't be surprised by this.

    There also seems to be a sort of "disrespect" towards the game, with people exclaiming. It's a PS1 game, why is it taking up 67GB. It's a PS4 game though, it isn't PS1 anymore. Were these people expecting a 5gb game?

    Negatives aside, the game itself is extremely fun. This is how gaming should be, no lootboxes, no irritating grinding, no lengthy and monotonous tutorial levels, just straight into the action. This is a fantastic remaster of the old games that many of us loved and grew up on. My reasons for giving it a 10 is that I can't think of anything else that Toys for Bob should have changed or added, it is a perfect remaster.    … Expand

    Activision and Toys for Bob, thank you so much for this masterpiece and for making me relieve my childhood memories. This is absolutely FANTASTIC. I really wish more games like this were released nowadays. And the switch port is just so well done, never believed the switch could output such amazing graphics. 10/10. A love letter to Spyro fans and platform game fans in general.

    Game is very well remastered. Control is superb, very responsive (don't have an input lag as in other games).

    For me only problem is that camera very close to dragon. I play on 40" 4k TV and that is right in a face when you run (maybe already fixed when you read). Other then that game polished in all ways.

    This game is a very faithful remaster to the originals that once it starts going it doesn't seem to slow down. After you get used to the controls (which doesn't take long at all) the game plays great and becomes simple fun that I think we've needed for a while now.

    This game is a beautiful remaster with improved controls and overall gameplay from the originals, OnlyOneHere complaining about no multiplayer is absurd for a primarily single player game and although it may be limited in all you can do between the 3 games you can be sure that you'll enjoy every minute of it.

    Spyro was an all-time classic so to have it receiving the Crash treatment of a remake to a new standard of graphics and game play was great. Still enjoyable to play as the old one.

    Great & enjoyable game, But **** the PS4 pro.
    This game is so beautiful graphics wise, but sadly we are forced to play it in PS4 or Xbox one, with only 30 fps and an obnoxious motion blur to cover the frame rate drops!!

    Why can't they release it on PC so we can't enjoy this game properly!

    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]
