@@SorasShadow1 were are the grammatical errors it doesnt look any worse than you're sentence. you're an idiot too just because it has errors doesnt mean it wont be liked lol.
i played spyro 3 when i was 7 this game bring back so many memories ... but other than nostalgia ... i dont see how someone who had never played the originals might enjoy this... i think many who play this who havent played the originals might not get the charm and be turned off by it ...
@@mariolis I feel you I love this game so much i played it a bunch as a kid am 17 now i just got the game today and made it to the 2nd world with the civil war looking frogs and I didn't know I could get nostalgia from a frog showing me his bare ass when I burn his tent down
mariolis1000 I bought this game cause I thought it was colorful and gorgeous and ended up liking it a lot. I had never played the originals and I was surprised on how much I liked this trilogy
TBF I would've bought it even if the graphics were the same as the PS1 version that we played back in the late 90s! I do play it via emulation on the PC and it still holds up as a solid platformer.
Yeah for real. When I was a kid I always preferred Crash but I’m surprisingly enjoying Reignited much more than the N Sane Trilogy. These are truly great games.
they even used some of the original voices in the first one, sigh, this game was my childhood, lol, i played all of them on an emulator and now have to learn to use a console controller for the first time in 33 years
Been playing for several hours. Told my husband, before we bought it, that he would have to surrender the tv for a couple days. He didn't believe. Now he does 😂
Never got to play this as a kid. I saw it on sale last night on switch and was drunk and high and just bought it. Played it today and it’s been fantastic! I’m excited to go through all 3 games in order. Excited to see how it progresses and it’s just a nice easy game to relax and wind-down.
You are wrong about the camera. In original trilogy the camera could be set to active or passive. You would turn it left or right by using R1/L1 or R2/L2. Pressing R1+L1 or R2+L2 would center the camera.
Its Spyro the Dragon; if you were a fan of the originals this is for you, or if you have children and want to play a charming and fun game with them. If you're new to the series, they are not particularly difficult platform games and feature some side games like gliding challenges and Skateboarding. There is also an option to play the original soundtrack if you prefer it. However keep in mind that only the 1st game is on disc while the other 2 require you to download them, so be aware for those with poor internet.
Easily one of the best remakes I've ever played. True to the source material, and completely new feeling to it. Beautiful worlds, funny mob animations. Between RDR2, Spiderman, and this I wanted this first.
I played all three of The Originals. I just recently got the remasters. I'm calling in sick tomorrow at work just to stay home and play this game. That says a lot!
Guess I gotta get em. Haven't played the originals, I was a PS2 era kid, so I played Ratchet and Clank, instead. I look forward to buying the Reignited Trilogy, even if it's just to see where Insomniac started.
@@The_Thulhu i grew up on the ps2 era also but we were pretty poor and couldnt buy a lot of games, so I started playing on my dad's few ps1 games, often Spyro to collect everything, gave me something to do for a while with the few games I had. Year of the Dragon is the first game I've ever 100%
Not sure what you're talking about with the camera. I clearly remember being able to move the camera around as well as go into first person view on the original.
@@hunterofhunters1326 No you could always rotate the camera with the triggers, it would just recenter itself on Spyro if you left it alone for a few seconds. so yes you had more than enough camera control to work and be fun (Personally I kinda like using the triggers cause it means my right thumb is freed from the stick)
@@jacobschmidt3795 you can use the triggers in the new remastered spyro aswel, there's a control option in the menu that changes the flame breath and auto center button (L2-R2) to the old shcool camera controls for that retro feel(you can still use the right stick to control the camera in this mode) personally i use the new controls as the camera is one of the main reason to play this version also the auto center button is still pretty useful as the "active camera" option is still quite bad tbh, when ever i charge the camera struggles to keep up with me unless i hold that button, well that and the 60fps on pc. but none the old school camera is there for people who wanna use it
@@rustedyoda7339 Yeah I suppose the new camera would be a major reason to play the new one, for me though the games were really good without an analog camera so it feels kind of odd (however I actually used both control schemes at once when I played) idk about you but when I was simply running around I would stick with the triggers (unless I wanted to look up or down while running) actually being able to look up or down while moving is the main advantage I suppose lol. So I'm assuming you've played the originals right? Does it bother you how they messed up the swimming and flight physics? Like when you swim in the remake you drift all over the place and its all slippery, whereas in the original Spyro didn't drift around he pretty much stopped in place wherever you wanted (which just felt more fun and responsive) And the new flight isn't as bad, Spyro does drift just like the new water physics but at least he's flying in a wide open area for the most part so it doesn't feel as bad to control
@@jacobschmidt3795 the flying and swimming are worse, but i never did enjoy the flight levels anyways. and water isn't that bad. it's only slightly worse,the charge is what feels bad, i only use it when i need to break something open or need to go fast to get somewhere. other then that i just hold x on my controller to "jog" through the water. maybe it would be harder to move around at lower fps? idk i play pc and it's pretty smooth in the water, but water levels in spyro where never my favorite ether way and i'd usually stick away from water (other then to collect gems and go through if i need to) the thing that bugs me the most about the new spyro is the nerfed gliding. i wouldn't call it useless but it's really only used to make certain occasional jumps or fly across a level to get to a hidden spot, i also find myself having to use the "hover" move WAY more then the originals just to make simple jumps that should be able to make without. i know about the double jump in ripo's rage and i'm not comparing it to that, but even the regular jump -then glide is just pathetic tbh. when i played these games as a kid. that was literally my favorite part of spyro. being able to just kinda fly around the place. land and with a simple jump be back in the air for another 3-4 seconds, now you jump, glide about 8 feet then land, it's slower too i noticed.(slower then just "jogging" normally) so i end up rarely using it anymore, it's more of a gimmic now then a main mechanic. it just feels off you know?
I would've liked there to be a system where you can turn back and forth between new and old graphics like in Halo CEA and Halo 2 Anniversary. Though, I am so excited to revisit one of my first gaming experiences. There's so much nostalgia in this.
I think the problem with that is that Im pretty sure the old and new graphics use two different engines. Not sure how it would work if you tried that with two different engines. Halo has used the same engine for years,just modified and updated. I could be wrong though.
They actually lost the original source code. And since they're now using Unreal Engine, it would have been too hard and annoying to reproduce the original graphics
"The Original games didn't have camera controls" Me: *using L2 and R2 to move the camera left and right* ... did this guy even play the original games (And before you say "Oh but he said you could" I rewatched the video And I did not hear once him ever saying that)
Shit I'm 51 and my son got this for me as a Father's day gift....he remembers me playing it and beating all the games I've had a blast i play with the original music score
Im sorry for you then i dont know why all these sites not warning people that not all the games on the disc and you have to download the rest.. i was excited im not buy this anymore all games should be on the the disc
@Joseph Mendoza wow this generation of gamers dont understand the value in exchange of money and buying a product... im shure u know that digital you dont own anything. There is a pro an con to evrrything. I respect your choice. Yud waver your right to own something you paid real hard earned cash for because its more convenient.. this is what these company want... in time to come they lose the license are they even giving u your money back.... think about that. If that was the case id have no issue believe me im for us the gamers these companies are robbing us blind an we pay them to do it and defend them is really sad.. im one guy but i just try to educate people on the matter and look at things differently. Gaming in the past wasnt perfect but compare to this generation i cant even call these things games anymore.. its a avenue for unlimited cash stream for these companies and were the whales n cattle as they call us.
Yeah I heard about the disc thing. Wasn't too much of a problem for me since I got it digitally. Spyro was my first game so I'm super excited. I'm actually doing a let's play 100% playthrough for this game if you guys are interested in watching on my channel. Check it out, and maybe even subscribe if you want to for more videos.
I think it's a real shame that people are getting upset about the games not all being on the disc. They're three HUGE games. I grew up with Spyro, and although I think it's a shame that all the content isn't all represented on the physical release, not for one second have I thought about not supporting the fantastic work Toys for Bob have done. I respect art over materialistic plastic cases and discs.
I find it funny because I think anyone who owns a ps4 should have an internet connection. And definitely fast enough to download the other two games before finishing the first.
I hate everyone that praises the new right stick camera controls... they clearly don't play the game very well if they have no issues with taking their thumb off the face buttons...
@@7EEVEE It's nice being able to look up and down and at variable turn rates. And it's Spyro. You can easily play the game well while dropping off the face buttons occasionally.
@@EternalDahaka it is extremely inconvenient to glide and try to turn the camera with the right stick. I have died/gotten hurt in places I have never died before. And there isn't much need to look up other than to see all of the level design that isn't at Spyro's eye level.
@@deadluke13 Why would you need to change the camera while gliding? It follows right behind you. There's always the alternate control scheme if you prefer it, but I don't think I've really messed with the camera for any glide. And yeah, looking up and down isn't required, just a nice addition.
As a kid, I spent hundreds of hours playing and replaying the original trilogy. To have it come back and better than ever makes me positively giddy! It's like seeing an old friend, if that friend reappeared after SO MANY years, was still the same lovable guy and still kicked major ass.
Good man! Screw all this "Before you buy" shite.. if I like the look of a game.. I'm gonna get it.. no youtuber is gonna change my mind.. and if you were an OG spyro player you are gonna get this remake anyway
The art style is amazing, but some part of me wishes they could do that Master Chief collection thing and actively change the graphics at will. Just to, y'know, see how far we've come. And for some nostalgia tripping.
I agree bub, especially when it came to the variety of enemy styles back in the day. Based on some of the stuff I read/watched though, they had to rebuild these games from the ground up so including that setting might've been too Herculean of a task... That said, at least there's concept art comparisons to the OG games to appreciate.
Its really hard to make since the halo games used the same enginge, just extremely updated. plus they lost the original source code so it wouldve been extremely hard to recreate. trust me, im an aspiring game developer
Toys for Bob had to create the reignited trilogy from the ground up. All of the original coding for the Spyro games was non existent in their creation process, therefore I do not think it possible to do such a thing. Would be dope though.
I wouldn't say it's "Fair To Forget" when you are giving a review about a remaster. He spent like 5 mins talking about a feature that was in the original games... lmfao
This was my childhood game! And they could not have done a better job bringing back to life. I’d say this is a personal game of the year contender for me, just out of pure nastalgia alone!
Man i wish i could.. its like being between a rock and a hard place i love d spyro games..but buy it digital i dont own it. Buy it phyiscal i still dont own it only one game on the disc have to download the rest..so i work to hard for my cash wont pic this up..
@Masterffc hey thanks for replying but you just proved my point.. the whole game (red dead 2) is on the disc. I am buying a complete game. And you telling me a big huge open world 4k graphics can fit but not this trilogy cant?? They want us to get accustom to paying more for less... im look out for us the gamers bro.. i never told anyone not to buy it if u noticed... im just not doing it and i wanted it real bad.. but i work to hard for my money.. maybe other people dont but im not supporting this practice... it has compression techniques im shure if they really wanted to do....
beast killer gaming as long as you own your console you will own the game. I like physical copies as well, but games get updated and sold with bugs all the time. So a physical copy almost doesn’t matter anymore.
I think the thing that truly defines this as a great remake for me is how queasy I get playing Spyro. I had headaches as a kid playing Spyro, this has been the only title/series that gave me this effect. Even with some of the most brain splintering headaches I still powered through the game collecting all the orbs and eggs. Having them again now as an adult, it definitely brings me back to those days. 10/10, must buy for anyone who's ever played the PS1 titles. And if you're like me, you'll need a handful of painkillers to complete the game haha.
Oh man I can totally relate. I used to play Spyro: Enter the Dragon like all day when I was like 6 just to see how far I could get because I didn’t have a memory card, and twice I managed to make it to the 5th area only to not be able to complete it because it was bedtime. Another time I managed to beat Gnasty Gnorc, but fuck me was my head throbbing by then. Talk about a speed running I used to play through Enter the Dragon & Ripto’s Rage and run through each area as fast as possible to reach the next point I could never make it to because I didn’t have a memory card and it would always be bedtime. Needless to say I played through all three games a lot, but they just simply never got bored for me and eventually I managed to not only reach 100% (110% on YOTD), but I’ve done so about 3-4 times on each game. Hell I even still own my original copies.
Yep I agreed this is childhood memories I rather spyro than crash bandicoot anytime Although crash bandicoot is good in my days but the spyro has memories that I really love
I thought it was only me! So what exactly was doing this to us? There was always that time limit I had where i would get on spyros and speed as much as I could and enjoy it before the headaches inevitably came knocking. Then I would wait for the headache then get back on and repeat. It was so painful. . .and so fun.
@@RokushoTheRavager Oh man, that really takes me back. I remember it was grueling to have to watch the opening scenes over and over again, don't know why it took so long to finally have a memory card (or know of it's existence) but thank whoever it was that got me one. So many games on repeat after repeat xD. Good times.
The original PS1 didn't have L/R 2, you had to buy the dual shock to be able to change it. Playing on a standard controller it didn't. Edit:never mind I'm thinking of L/R 3
@@ironpro7217 The original PS1 controller didn't have analog sticks but did have L1/2 and R1/2 as shoulder buttons, those were used to move the camera left and right. Even in the remaster there's an option to utilize that control scheme.
This is a really weak Before You Buy. I don't know if you're ill or hungover - but holy shit talk about the GAME. You could have talked about the camera for 15 seconds and got it done. You could have talked about level design in 15 seconds and moved on. But its 75% of your thoughts? I wanna know how this game FEELS. I wanna know how the new soundtrack SOUNDS. I wanna know if this is a good remake. I dont want an explanation on what the Spyro games 'are'.
Aight. I'll bite. Spyro himself feels lifelike. Doesn't feel like a tank like the ps1 version. Take that as you will. The sound tracks some are shit but some are really good as far as the remakes. You can swap the soundtracks in the sound menu to the original. Dynamic sound, I don't like it. It's cool, yeah and I appreciate it being in there but you can turn that off. Voices are good albeit corny at times. But hey, it's worth the money.
I just finished watching this whole video and I've already forgotten almost everything that was said except for: - Mario World on the N64 - You can't control the camera on the PS1 versions (which is just plain wrong by the way) - The game looks good and the level design is good Literally nothing else of note was actually said in the video. You just waffled on about nothing important or relevant to this game. You didn't talk about how only one game is on disc, or how the game controls in comparison to the originals, or how the remastered soundtrack sounds. You've provided barely any information that would help someone decide on whether or not to make the purchase.
Both the original and new soundtracks are available, at any time you can switch the soundtracks in the options menu, the game controls very well, better than the originals honestly, especially Spyro 1
Usually like this channel for the in-depth and well thought-out reviews. This one, however, is rambling and uninformative. Little structure and goes off topic, often talking about the Spyro series as a whole rather than this remake.
I played this game when I was young. it was my most favorite series and spyro was by far my most favorite game character of all time. getting the reignited trilogy really allowed me to remember the original games as they were and just looking back, this game stays true to the original and the design of spyro is almost the exact same. the design for the dragons in the first game really works well to be honest compared to the original game and the personality the game devs put into them tops it off. honestly, I believe that some things could have been different but that isn't such a big deal with me. its nice to see people enjoying this immortal classic. I just really hope that this game does not get forgotten in the future. I will NEVER throw out my copy of the reignited trilogy and my memories of playing the original games will stay with me forever.
I loved this game as a kid. It's really exciting to see the dragon's rendered with such detail. I can't wait to share this experience with my own children.
I loved Spyro and I am sure I will love the remake. I like that the controls and puzzles are not that complex. It is just challenging enough not to be boring but also nice in a way that it comforting just milling around this world as Spyro.
When I was a kid, my second console ever was a PS1. My first game on the PS1 was Spyro: Year of the Dragon. I played that game to death. There came a time when it never left my ps1. For almost a year. I just couldn’t stop. I’d beat it... then get a big itch to go back to sunrise spring. So I figured why not start a new game? Nothing left in that file. ... I wasn’t the brightest kid sometimes. But yeah, I never played Spyro 1 or 2. Then I saw the reignited trilogy and almost lost my shit. Reliving a massive nostalgia trip with updated graphics and controls, and also finally being able to play 1 and 2? Fuck yeah! Spyro 3 was a big part of my childhood. I’m glad I get to go through it again at 25 years old.
I had a ps1 without a memory card so always replayed year of the dragon over and over it got to a point where I would finish the whole game in one sitting or I'd pause the game overnight I loved my childhood 😂
As a kid playing these on PS1, this is exactly what I pictured these games looking like. It is great seeing them again now, and I remember these levels like clockwork.
Played the first two of the reboot so far and they are as amazing as i thought. Though you can get through pretty fast if you already played them as a child (or sometime else). Still very glad i purchased the game
Who else has been obsessed with spyro's skybox design since day one? People dont seem to appreciate the beauty and unique hand crafted design of each skybox.
I remember playing this game when I was a really young kid. The monsters scared the crap outta me, so I always stayed in that one skating level. I don't think I ever wanted to move past that stage. lol I'm an adult now, so I want to properly finish these games.
Spyro was the first game I ever played on PS2 and this remaster hits all the right nostalgic notes. Not super hard, but if you try to 100% all the games it turns into a pretty hearty feat that remains fun throughout your play through.
I am so happy with this remake -- I cannot stop smiling as I play it! So much love went into this to make it a better version of the original. Good job Toys for Bob!
I'm going to buy it it april 2019. Just found out about. One of the very first games I played and just watching this video is a nostalgia rush of great memories!
This is a really good review - very insightful. Touched on a lot of points I feel connected with through-generation players (those who've played Spyro from the early days, who are still gaming today). The Spiderman point was pretty interesting and the "modernization of the free camera" comment was very smart. Thanks!
When this was first announced, I was more excited for this trilogy more than the crash bandicoot trilogy. And I love crash but Spyro is a big part of my childhood
So, it has the original ps1 games? The disc has only one? How much I must download? Can you pick any game to start? The minigames has a multiplayer thing?
I’m super into hard and challenging games that really test your skill and strategising ability. That being said, spending hours trying to figure out how to pull off a Knasty Knorc on the skateboard and beating the hell out of those twin dragons in the ninja level was the peak of my childhood gaming experience. I’m definitely picking this up 100%
Seriously? Holy shit. More reason for me to get the games. I have zero platties. But no Platinum is easy, there's just easier ones. I'll get the trilogy and try to get the platinum(s) then
Hey I appreciated this video alot, as both a player of Spyro back in the day and owning a Ps4 now, I would have liked to see more in this video how the remake holds up to the originals- how it's simmilar, how it varies, is it nicer graphics and finally a better camera, or is its own thing? Anyways, you guys do a bangin' job and thank you for all the work you put into your production.👍👋
I played all of the older versions of the Spyro games, and my favorite Spyro game is still Spyro: A New Beginning. Soooo excited to play this one when I get it for Christmas!
If you pressed L2 or R2 on the original games, you could move the camera left or right...and if you held triangle you went into an over the shoulder view, where you could look around how you wanted. Don't give out false/misguided info Falcon.
these games where the highlight of my childhood. and to see them remade with such pinpoint precision just fills me with nostalgia. ill be honest, the cut scenes feel kind of rushed and cringey at times, but otherwise the reignited trilogy looks great!
did you mention that only the first game is actually on the disk and you have to download the other 2 in order to play them? such a pain. why can't they fit all 3 games on one disk!
I feel like for DRM, makes no sense at all, you lock the two other titles for online download so if you have bad internet connection, good luck with waiting which sucks
That's good news for me lol the insane trilogy controls were just a bit too frustrating for me and because of that, I feel like I kinda got tired of it quicker than I should have.
@zenoe1562 and @Tyson Muir it seems like were forgetting two others.. 1. Escorting the alchemist in fracture hills and 2. protecting the cave men on skelos badlands.. yes the ones you two still apply but mine.. urrrgh I got so pissed off at my two
I remember playing these games on the ps1 without a memory card and having to complete them in one sitting, or keeping the console on over night. Oh the memories
Getting it for my birthday.... which is in 2 weeks... I have to deal with that every year. Next awesome game comes out near the holidays and i cant touch the marketplace until Dec26th.. so if i get the game cool i own it and can start playing. but i'm already a month behind everyone else. OR i don't get it so I then buy it for myself and still get to enjoy it a month later. Wife doesn't like it when i buy every game i want so i get this like 3 out of 12 month span i'm not aloud to buy games.... life
Bro its your money i cant say dont worry like that guy about day one patch.... i wont get it an i wanted it bad.. im not paying for a phyical disc with only one game on it an not the rest.. their fooling us to get accustom to all digital.
I think it’s so cool seeing so many people hyped up for this game, it definitely takes a part of people’s childhood. I personally haven’t played the original ( I only played a demo off of a ps demo disc) the only games I remember having is tekken, crash and some Winnie the poo game lol. I was hyped when crash got a remake. With this I feel like I don’t have much of a connection I’ll probably wait for a sale in the future. As always thanks for the vids man, they always get me thinking about my purchases.
I have it, it's definitely fun and the bright and colorful worlds will keep you entertained for awhile. If you were playing all day I could see it getting a little boring for some people but I'd say it's definitely worth the buy.
We not gonna mention that Spyro 1 is on the disc, but Spyro 2 & 3 must be downloaded to your hard drive? Kind of a big deal for anyone who has poor/no internet connection.
@@SilverLeopard00 No, the games were cutting it short with the release date concerning the fact that 2 has a major boss glitch and 3's presentation is lacking and much buggier.
Spyro was my first PS1 game. It was actually my first full fledged game that wasn't 16 bit. To see it all redone and made so gorgeously makes it a definite buy for me. To play it on my PS4 now feels like it has all come full circle.
I remember sitting at home when I was a little kid on rainy days playing Spyro with my mom right next to me. Now decades later being able to play Spyro again with such a gorgeous look makes my inner child so happy. Thank you to insomniac and to Toys for Bob for making me smile.
Now I only need Medievil Remake and a Looney Tunes trilogy Remastered (Bugs Bunny: Lista un Time, Bugs Bunny and Taz and Sheep Raider) and I can be happy.
The fact that someone else knows about Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time give this a like from me. Such a great game, sadly I never hear anyone so much as mention it when they talk about old games of yesteryear.
I am afraid that whenever you mentioned not being able to move the camera in the original games, you were wrong. L2 and R2 are used to move the camera on the original games. This is also the case if you use the retro control scheme on the reignited trilogy. If you played the original games without moving the camera then you wouldn't get very far. So have you even played the original games ?
fire blaze games Yep this might've been an oversight or just plain lack of enthusiasm for making this video. In Town Square from the original, the first dragon you free will tell you without saying camera that you can use the shoulder buttons to get a good look around the level: "Welcome to Town Square, Spyro. Begin exploring by heading to that area with the bulls, use the L2 and R2 buttons to get a good look" - original message Nice spot, I did use the retro control scheme too to see what that was. Another question of something I don't get: why in the reignited control scheme does R2 make Spyro flame? Seems redundant, of course everyone who bought the originals will use the circle button to flame and that is flame too. I guess they wanted every button to do something, I dunno.
I love collectathons almost as much as I loved Spyro as a kid. Not a coincidence. I don't really have the time or money to get this collection right now, but probably before the end of the year, I'll give it a go.
Honestly, I have/played the original riptors rampage, so seeing those levels re created in HD quality with such beautiful visual made me reallly exited
Same, at least for the PS1. Sonic was my original mascot (1-3, and knuckles). Then on PS1 it was Spyro. Then on PS2 it was no one really, just the GTA games in general.
When Spyro Reignited trilogy got released:
Spyro: Thank you for releasing me

Anyone who has played this series knows how amazing this game will be
Yet when the game itself becomes serious, it becomes *not amazing*.

More like after you 100% the game 27 times and have to refund it because you can’t pay rent
Already had it pre-ordered. XD
We ran to walmart amd snagged it like 5 hours ago
Basically
Been playing for several hours. Told my husband, before we bought it, that he would have to surrender the tv for a couple days. He didn't believe. Now he does 😂
Never got to play this as a kid. I saw it on sale last night on switch and was drunk and high and just bought it. Played it today and it’s been fantastic! I’m excited to go through all 3 games in order. Excited to see how it progresses and it’s just a nice easy game to relax and wind-down.
haha i call being drunk and high at the same time "buck" hehe prally just a kiwi thing but it is a lot of fun
But how can I trust you? You’re clearly a pathological liar:(

You are wrong about the camera. In original trilogy the camera could be set to active or passive. You would turn it left or right by using R1/L1 or R2/L2. Pressing R1+L1 or R2+L2 would center the camera.
true
@@sorry7436 just checked my spyro 2 manual, all true
Correct
@@MrFRNTIK well you could go up/down if you were in first person mode
@@MrFRNTIK The guy that made this video clearly didn't use passive camera option and L1, R1 buttons at all. Stop defending him.
I think he means Super Mario 64 when he says "Mario World."
I started scanning the comments to see if anyone else noticed
Jim Fancy-pants I was triggered lol
Only a true gamer would know without explanation.
mongothedestroyer88 Only a true gamer wouldn't call it Mario World.
And in the original Spyro 1 (at least) you can actually rotate the camera wit L1 and R1. But he may have had it on auto center.
Its Spyro the Dragon; if you were a fan of the originals this is for you, or if you have children and want to play a charming and fun game with them. If you're new to the series, they are not particularly difficult platform games and feature some side games like gliding challenges and Skateboarding. There is also an option to play the original soundtrack if you prefer it.
However keep in mind that only the 1st game is on disc while the other 2 require you to download them, so be aware for those with poor internet.
Easily one of the best remakes I've ever played. True to the source material, and completely new feeling to it. Beautiful worlds, funny mob animations. Between RDR2, Spiderman, and this I wanted this first.
Too late, already finished the first one 😂
I played all three of The Originals. I just recently got the remasters. I'm calling in sick tomorrow at work just to stay home and play this game. That says a lot!
Guess I gotta get em. Haven't played the originals, I was a PS2 era kid, so I played Ratchet and Clank, instead. I look forward to buying the Reignited Trilogy, even if it's just to see where Insomniac started.
@@The_Thulhu i grew up on the ps2 era also but we were pretty poor and couldnt buy a lot of games, so I started playing on my dad's few ps1 games, often Spyro to collect everything, gave me something to do for a while with the few games I had. Year of the Dragon is the first game I've ever 100%
I still have the original 3 games. I need to get Reignited but I don't get paid till the end of the month :(

Tree tops is the meme level of the entire franchise.
Not sure what you're talking about with the camera. I clearly remember being able to move the camera around as well as go into first person view on the original.
i think it depends on if you played with the original ps1 controller (without analog sticks) or the dualshock 1 (with analog sticks)
i think, not sure
@@hunterofhunters1326 No you could always rotate the camera with the triggers, it would just recenter itself on Spyro if you left it alone for a few seconds. so yes you had more than enough camera control to work and be fun (Personally I kinda like using the triggers cause it means my right thumb is freed from the stick)
@@jacobschmidt3795 you can use the triggers in the new remastered spyro aswel, there's a control option in the menu that changes the flame breath and auto center button (L2-R2) to the old shcool camera controls for that retro feel(you can still use the right stick to control the camera in this mode) personally i use the new controls as the camera is one of the main reason to play this version also the auto center button is still pretty useful as the "active camera" option is still quite bad tbh, when ever i charge the camera struggles to keep up with me unless i hold that button, well that and the 60fps on pc. but none the old school camera is there for people who wanna use it
@@rustedyoda7339 Yeah I suppose the new camera would be a major reason to play the new one, for me though the games were really good without an analog camera so it feels kind of odd (however I actually used both control schemes at once when I played) idk about you but when I was simply running around I would stick with the triggers (unless I wanted to look up or down while running) actually being able to look up or down while moving is the main advantage I suppose lol.
So I'm assuming you've played the originals right? Does it bother you how they messed up the swimming and flight physics? Like when you swim in the remake you drift all over the place and its all slippery, whereas in the original Spyro didn't drift around he pretty much stopped in place wherever you wanted (which just felt more fun and responsive) And the new flight isn't as bad, Spyro does drift just like the new water physics but at least he's flying in a wide open area for the most part so it doesn't feel as bad to control
@@jacobschmidt3795 the flying and swimming are worse, but i never did enjoy the flight levels anyways. and water isn't that bad. it's only slightly worse,the charge is what feels bad, i only use it when i need to break something open or need to go fast to get somewhere. other then that i just hold x on my controller to "jog" through the water. maybe it would be harder to move around at lower fps? idk i play pc and it's pretty smooth in the water, but water levels in spyro where never my favorite ether way and i'd usually stick away from water (other then to collect gems and go through if i need to) the thing that bugs me the most about the new spyro is the nerfed gliding. i wouldn't call it useless but it's really only used to make certain occasional jumps or fly across a level to get to a hidden spot, i also find myself having to use the "hover" move WAY more then the originals just to make simple jumps that should be able to make without. i know about the double jump in ripo's rage and i'm not comparing it to that, but even the regular jump -then glide is just pathetic tbh. when i played these games as a kid. that was literally my favorite part of spyro. being able to just kinda fly around the place. land and with a simple jump be back in the air for another 3-4 seconds, now you jump, glide about 8 feet then land, it's slower too i noticed.(slower then just "jogging" normally) so i end up rarely using it anymore, it's more of a gimmic now then a main mechanic. it just feels off you know?
YOU COULD ALWAYS MOVE THE CAMERA IN THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY. IT WAS THE SHOULDER BUTTONS.
YouBobPants I had a dual shock ps1
Not in Japan.
I would've liked there to be a system where you can turn back and forth between new and old graphics like in Halo CEA and Halo 2 Anniversary. Though, I am so excited to revisit one of my first gaming experiences. There's so much nostalgia in this.
That's what I wanted! I was tweeting TOB so much for this but I know it would've taken them a while to do that
I think the problem with that is that Im pretty sure the old and new graphics use two different engines. Not sure how it would work if you tried that with two different engines.
Halo has used the same engine for years,just modified and updated. I could be wrong though.
I was thinking the same thing!
They actually lost the original source code.
And since they're now using Unreal Engine, it would have been too hard and annoying to reproduce the original graphics
@@thekenjistream8683 well the levels are also different in scale
he called Mario 64 "Mario World"
oh jeez
Yeah... And said Resident Evil 4 was a ps1 game without camera control (I'm pretty sure he meant RE 3. ^^;)
João Marcos Costa BRUH
Ikr :-:
He loses all credibility at that point tbh. I
"The Original games didn't have camera controls"
Me: *using L2 and R2 to move the camera left and right* ... did this guy even play the original games
(And before you say "Oh but he said you could" I rewatched the video And I did not hear once him ever saying that)
Also called mario 64 "mario world" so
Lmao imagine
exactly
he would have been talking about the older PlayStation controllers that didn't have the joysticks.
He said after that you could control them with l2 and r2....Did you even finish the video?
I’m 42, preordered it, will be playing today, picked it up at lunch break
I picked it up after my classes
Gentlemen Gamer great minds think alike!!!
Shit I'm 51 and my son got this for me as a Father's day gift....he remembers me playing it and beating all the games I've had a blast i play with the original music score
Frank Walls awesome game!!!
I’m sooo excited for this trilogy 🙌🙌
Im sorry for you then i dont know why all these sites not warning people that not all the games on the disc and you have to download the rest.. i was excited im not buy this anymore all games should be on the the disc
@Joseph Mendoza wow this generation of gamers dont understand the value in exchange of money and buying a product... im shure u know that digital you dont own anything. There is a pro an con to evrrything. I respect your choice. Yud waver your right to own something you paid real hard earned cash for because its more convenient.. this is what these company want... in time to come they lose the license are they even giving u your money back.... think about that. If that was the case id have no issue believe me im for us the gamers these companies are robbing us blind an we pay them to do it and defend them is really sad.. im one guy but i just try to educate people on the matter and look at things differently. Gaming in the past wasnt perfect but compare to this generation i cant even call these things games anymore.. its a avenue for unlimited cash stream for these companies and were the whales n cattle as they call us.
Yeah I heard about the disc thing. Wasn't too much of a problem for me since I got it digitally. Spyro was my first game so I'm super excited. I'm actually doing a let's play 100% playthrough for this game if you guys are interested in watching on my channel. Check it out, and maybe even subscribe if you want to for more videos.
I think it's a real shame that people are getting upset about the games not all being on the disc. They're three HUGE games. I grew up with Spyro, and although I think it's a shame that all the content isn't all represented on the physical release, not for one second have I thought about not supporting the fantastic work Toys for Bob have done. I respect art over materialistic plastic cases and discs.
I find it funny because I think anyone who owns a ps4 should have an internet connection. And definitely fast enough to download the other two games before finishing the first.
The hell are you talking about? The shoulder buttons moved the camera! And it made sense, because your right thumb is on jump! What are you smoking?
I hate everyone that praises the new right stick camera controls... they clearly don't play the game very well if they have no issues with taking their thumb off the face buttons...
@@7EEVEE
It's nice being able to look up and down and at variable turn rates.
And it's Spyro. You can easily play the game well while dropping off the face buttons occasionally.
not the way I play ma man
@@EternalDahaka it is extremely inconvenient to glide and try to turn the camera with the right stick. I have died/gotten hurt in places I have never died before. And there isn't much need to look up other than to see all of the level design that isn't at Spyro's eye level.
@@deadluke13
Why would you need to change the camera while gliding? It follows right behind you. There's always the alternate control scheme if you prefer it, but I don't think I've really messed with the camera for any glide.
And yeah, looking up and down isn't required, just a nice addition.
As a kid, I spent hundreds of hours playing and replaying the original trilogy. To have it come back and better than ever makes me positively giddy! It's like seeing an old friend, if that friend reappeared after SO MANY years, was still the same lovable guy and still kicked major ass.
Too late. I pre ordered this 4 months ago. And I'm not even disappointed
Same here man.
@@Lunam_D._Roger can't wait to get back home from work and keep on playing 😌

@@xvenomxreap3rx hell yeah 😍😍
@@OneDayOfPiece Idk if you are home from work yet but.. oh.. my.. GOD! You are gonna love playing it!
The art style is amazing, but some part of me wishes they could do that Master Chief collection thing and actively change the graphics at will.
Just to, y'know, see how far we've come. And for some nostalgia tripping.
I agree bub, especially when it came to the variety of enemy styles back in the day. Based on some of the stuff I read/watched though, they had to rebuild these games from the ground up so including that setting might've been too Herculean of a task... That said, at least there's concept art comparisons to the OG games to appreciate.
That was more like a graphics upgrade with added in high quality cutscenes though. This is much more of an overhaul so it can't really be done here.
Its really hard to make since the halo games used the same enginge, just extremely updated. plus they lost the original source code so it wouldve been extremely hard to recreate. trust me, im an aspiring game developer
I honestly think the original spyro 1s art style is better ( I prefer spyro 2 and 3 HD though)
Toys for Bob had to create the reignited trilogy from the ground up. All of the original coding for the Spyro games was non existent in their creation process, therefore I do not think it possible to do such a thing. Would be dope though.
Hate to break it to you chief, but the original spyro games had L2 R2 camera control. Granted it was slow and a bit annoying, but it was there.
Devon Trolinger you can change it in the control menu to go back to the original controls
I often forgot you could do that even when playing the originals, so it's fair to forget
I wouldn't say it's "Fair To Forget" when you are giving a review about a remaster. He spent like 5 mins talking about a feature that was in the original games... lmfao
Slow? Dude you could change between passive and active camera mode. Zoe reminds you this at the start of both spyro 2 and 3.
Didn't he say that in the video?
This was my childhood game! And they could not have done a better job bringing back to life. I’d say this is a personal game of the year contender for me, just out of pure nastalgia alone!
Downloading the game as I am watching this!!!
It's great you'll love it. Doing a let's play on my channel too since it was my first game on ps1
Actually, that’s the only serious issue I have with the game.
Man i wish i could.. its like being between a rock and a hard place i love d spyro games..but buy it digital i dont own it. Buy it phyiscal i still dont own it only one game on the disc have to download the rest..so i work to hard for my cash wont pic this up..
@Masterffc hey thanks for replying but you just proved my point.. the whole game (red dead 2) is on the disc. I am buying a complete game. And you telling me a big huge open world 4k graphics can fit but not this trilogy cant?? They want us to get accustom to paying more for less... im look out for us the gamers bro.. i never told anyone not to buy it if u noticed... im just not doing it and i wanted it real bad.. but i work to hard for my money.. maybe other people dont but im not supporting this practice... it has compression techniques im shure if they really wanted to do....
beast killer gaming as long as you own your console you will own the game. I like physical copies as well, but games get updated and sold with bugs all the time. So a physical copy almost doesn’t matter anymore.
I think the thing that truly defines this as a great remake for me is how queasy I get playing Spyro.
I had headaches as a kid playing Spyro, this has been the only title/series that gave me this effect. Even with some of the most brain splintering headaches I still powered through the game collecting all the orbs and eggs.
Having them again now as an adult, it definitely brings me back to those days.
10/10, must buy for anyone who's ever played the PS1 titles. And if you're like me, you'll need a handful of painkillers to complete the game haha.
Oh man I can totally relate. I used to play Spyro: Enter the Dragon like all day when I was like 6 just to see how far I could get because I didn’t have a memory card, and twice I managed to make it to the 5th area only to not be able to complete it because it was bedtime. Another time I managed to beat Gnasty Gnorc, but fuck me was my head throbbing by then.
Talk about a speed running I used to play through Enter the Dragon & Ripto’s Rage and run through each area as fast as possible to reach the next point I could never make it to because I didn’t have a memory card and it would always be bedtime. Needless to say I played through all three games a lot, but they just simply never got bored for me and eventually I managed to not only reach 100% (110% on YOTD), but I’ve done so about 3-4 times on each game. Hell I even still own my original copies.
Yep I agreed this is childhood memories I rather spyro than crash bandicoot anytime
Although crash bandicoot is good in my days but the spyro has memories that I really love
A buy for anyone who hasn't played it as well.
I thought it was only me! So what exactly was doing this to us? There was always that time limit I had where i would get on spyros and speed as much as I could and enjoy it before the headaches inevitably came knocking. Then I would wait for the headache then get back on and repeat. It was so painful. . .and so fun.
@@RokushoTheRavager Oh man, that really takes me back. I remember it was grueling to have to watch the opening scenes over and over again, don't know why it took so long to finally have a memory card (or know of it's existence) but thank whoever it was that got me one.
So many games on repeat after repeat xD. Good times.
“Makes you FEEL like Spyro!”
Knack 2 baybeee
Does anyone remember that Gex: Enter the Gecko game from N64..
Wombat YES!! thank you, i have been trying to remember the name of that game forever.
did you have "army men: sarges heroes" on n64 too?
yeah, think that was released on the PS1 as well. Never played it but remember it was a well regarded game.
L2 & R2 Controlled The Camera on The Old Spyro Trilogy On Ps1.
The original PS1 didn't have L/R 2, you had to buy the dual shock to be able to change it. Playing on a standard controller it didn't.
Edit:never mind I'm thinking of L/R 3
@@ironpro7217 The original PS1 controller didn't have analog sticks but did have L1/2 and R1/2 as shoulder buttons, those were used to move the camera left and right. Even in the remaster there's an option to utilize that control scheme.
@@ranben I realised I was thinking of L/R 3, but I couldn't find the comment to edit it
Don't forget there was active camera mode
This is a really weak Before You Buy. I don't know if you're ill or hungover - but holy shit talk about the GAME. You could have talked about the camera for 15 seconds and got it done. You could have talked about level design in 15 seconds and moved on. But its 75% of your thoughts? I wanna know how this game FEELS. I wanna know how the new soundtrack SOUNDS. I wanna know if this is a good remake. I dont want an explanation on what the Spyro games 'are'.
It really makes you FEEL like Spyro the Dragon.
Aight. I'll bite. Spyro himself feels lifelike. Doesn't feel like a tank like the ps1 version. Take that as you will. The sound tracks some are shit but some are really good as far as the remakes. You can swap the soundtracks in the sound menu to the original. Dynamic sound, I don't like it. It's cool, yeah and I appreciate it being in there but you can turn that off. Voices are good albeit corny at times. But hey, it's worth the money.
He did talk about the game? Watch again.
@@invanorm But do you REALLY feel like Spyro after playing? I want to actually FEEL like a dragon shootn fire
And he's wrong about the camera too
I'll be all over these, once they're on PC. I still remember playing the demo of spyro 1 over and over because he was just so damn fun to control
I just finished watching this whole video and I've already forgotten almost everything that was said except for:
- Mario World on the N64
- You can't control the camera on the PS1 versions (which is just plain wrong by the way)
- The game looks good and the level design is good
Literally nothing else of note was actually said in the video. You just waffled on about nothing important or relevant to this game.
You didn't talk about how only one game is on disc, or how the game controls in comparison to the originals, or how the remastered soundtrack sounds. You've provided barely any information that would help someone decide on whether or not to make the purchase.
Both the original and new soundtracks are available, at any time you can switch the soundtracks in the options menu, the game controls very well, better than the originals honestly, especially Spyro 1
Boohoo
You don’t listen a lot do you
This is a good critique.
You’re Mom He’s not erroneous. This was a very lackluster video if you were ruminating about whether you want to purchase the game or not.
Usually like this channel for the in-depth and well thought-out reviews. This one, however, is rambling and uninformative. Little structure and goes off topic, often talking about the Spyro series as a whole rather than this remake.
Glad it wasnt just me thinking that
Can’t wait to see your review...
i kinda felt that, but with how spot-on the remake was i would've been lost for words too
I played this game when I was young. it was my most favorite series and spyro was by far my most favorite game character of all time. getting the reignited trilogy really allowed me to remember the original games as they were and just looking back, this game stays true to the original and the design of spyro is almost the exact same. the design for the dragons in the first game really works well to be honest compared to the original game and the personality the game devs put into them tops it off. honestly, I believe that some things could have been different but that isn't such a big deal with me. its nice to see people enjoying this immortal classic. I just really hope that this game does not get forgotten in the future. I will NEVER throw out my copy of the reignited trilogy and my memories of playing the original games will stay with me forever.
I loved this game as a kid. It's really exciting to see the dragon's rendered with such detail. I can't wait to share this experience with my own children.
I loved Spyro and I am sure I will love the remake. I like that the controls and puzzles are not that complex. It is just challenging enough not to be boring but also nice in a way that it comforting just milling around this world as Spyro.
This is my first time playing a “Classic” Spyro game.
I picked up the game today and started playing for less than five minutes.
I instantly loved it!
Hope you loved the entire package mate?
Typhoon Lex I just bought it and it’s amazing was playing up too 1am 😂😭
When I was a kid, my second console ever was a PS1. My first game on the PS1 was Spyro: Year of the Dragon. I played that game to death. There came a time when it never left my ps1. For almost a year. I just couldn’t stop. I’d beat it... then get a big itch to go back to sunrise spring. So I figured why not start a new game? Nothing left in that file. ... I wasn’t the brightest kid sometimes. But yeah, I never played Spyro 1 or 2. Then I saw the reignited trilogy and almost lost my shit. Reliving a massive nostalgia trip with updated graphics and controls, and also finally being able to play 1 and 2? Fuck yeah! Spyro 3 was a big part of my childhood. I’m glad I get to go through it again at 25 years old.
I had a ps1 without a memory card so always replayed year of the dragon over and over it got to a point where I would finish the whole game in one sitting or I'd pause the game overnight I loved my childhood 😂
“Particularly Mario world” yea you know “Mario world” on the n64🧐
Going to buy it now. My childhood, man!
Great before you buy !!! I’m so happy ! The feeling and memories coming back is insane! This was my Mario 64!
As a kid playing these on PS1, this is exactly what I pictured these games looking like. It is great seeing them again now, and I remember these levels like clockwork.
Spyro was my First Video Game I EVER bought for a system. Got it for my Playstation as a kid.
Played the first two of the reboot so far and they are as amazing as i thought. Though you can get through pretty fast if you already played them as a child (or sometime else). Still very glad i purchased the game
I loved Spyro so much and crash they were my childhood! I can’t wait to buy it and play!
Never played the third one back in the day so I'm definitely gonna get this, it's a dream come true!
Who else has been obsessed with spyro's skybox design since day one?
People dont seem to appreciate the beauty and unique hand crafted design of each skybox.
I remember playing this game when I was a really young kid. The monsters scared the crap outta me, so I always stayed in that one skating level. I don't think I ever wanted to move past that stage. lol I'm an adult now, so I want to properly finish these games.
This has to be the best remaster I ever played, it took me back to my childhood on my good-ol-ps1.
Ahh that's pretty cool...NOW WHERE IS MY BANJO-KAZOOIE REMAKE??!!
I’m just waiting for a Pac-Man World remake.
Take my wallet Rare.
Not coming anytime soon. Buy rare replay
Spyro was the first game I ever played on PS2 and this remaster hits all the right nostalgic notes. Not super hard, but if you try to 100% all the games it turns into a pretty hearty feat that remains fun throughout your play through.
What a year. Kids now gaming and I'm so excited to get them both these and Crash.
Talk about living vicariously.
I am so happy with this remake -- I cannot stop smiling as I play it! So much love went into this to make it a better version of the original. Good job Toys for Bob!
Hope there's a Spyro 4
For sure Bro Spyro on PS5 would be amazing
There is a 4th Spyro
There’s like 7 Spyro games.
I'm going to buy it it april 2019. Just found out about. One of the very first games I played and just watching this video is a nostalgia rush of great memories!
This is a really good review - very insightful. Touched on a lot of points I feel connected with through-generation players (those who've played Spyro from the early days, who are still gaming today). The Spiderman point was pretty interesting and the "modernization of the free camera" comment was very smart. Thanks!
1:26 super Mario world on the nintendo 64? Haahhha
Odd that he said that huh
He mean the Mario world environment
Lol he meant mario 64
Not really that funny
When this was first announced, I was more excited for this trilogy more than the crash bandicoot trilogy. And I love crash but Spyro is a big part of my childhood
Same
same

So, it has the original ps1 games? The disc has only one? How much I must download? Can you pick any game to start? The minigames has a multiplayer thing?
I’m super into hard and challenging games that really test your skill and strategising ability. That being said, spending hours trying to figure out how to pull off a Knasty Knorc on the skateboard and beating the hell out of those twin dragons in the ninja level was the peak of my childhood gaming experience.
I’m definitely picking this up 100%

Hey I appreciated this video alot, as both a player of Spyro back in the day and owning a Ps4 now, I would have liked to see more in this video how the remake holds up to the originals- how it's simmilar, how it varies, is it nicer graphics and finally a better camera, or is its own thing? Anyways, you guys do a bangin' job and thank you for all the work you put into your production.👍👋
I played all of the older versions of the Spyro games, and my favorite Spyro game is still Spyro: A New Beginning. Soooo excited to play this one when I get it for Christmas!
Ripto’s Rage is my favorite. What is your favorite of the the 3 Spyro games?
Dustin Weist my favorite of all time is Spyro year of the dragon and then my second favorite is the 1st game Spyro the Dragon
Year of the Dragon but Ripto's Rage is a close contender
Spyro 1
Riptos rage or as we call it in the UK release gateway to glimmer 😉year of the dragon a close second
If you pressed L2 or R2 on the original games, you could move the camera left or right...and if you held triangle you went into an over the shoulder view, where you could look around how you wanted. Don't give out false/misguided info Falcon.
shut up
Grew up playing Spyro! Riptos rage was my favorite. Definitely looking forward to playing that one!
Legend of Spyro series is still my most treasured spyro games even thought they span 3 different consoles
these games where the highlight of my childhood. and to see them remade with such pinpoint precision just fills me with nostalgia. ill be honest, the cut scenes feel kind of rushed and cringey at times, but otherwise the reignited trilogy looks great!
“Particularly” is your word huh 😂😂😂
Got my copy on Monday and I love it. You hit the analysis on the head too
I remember playing this when I was young it was so hard with the camera angles now its so easy lol I always been a big fan of Spyro love this game
did you mention that only the first game is actually on the disk and you have to download the other 2 in order to play them? such a pain. why can't they fit all 3 games on one disk!
I feel like for DRM, makes no sense at all, you lock the two other titles for online download so if you have bad internet connection, good luck with waiting which sucks
That is actually no longer the case, the whole reason the game was delayed till November was to make sure all three games were on the disks
@@Sephantis but the game requires some content download though still
@@Renegado140 All games nowadays seems to do that, but in this case its not the two full games.
@@Sephantis
Yes it is only one game comes on the disc you have to download the other 2 plus a patch complete dumpster fire
while this game does have a few challenging parts to it, youll definitely wont be stressing out as much if u played the insane trilogy
That's good news for me lol the insane trilogy controls were just a bit too frustrating for me and because of that, I feel like I kinda got tired of it quicker than I should have.
*cough* tree tops far dragon platform *cough*
Trouble with the Trolley?
yeah not saying its a piece of cake, but crash has so many more "do this exactly right or fail" moments for 100% completion
@zenoe1562 and @Tyson Muir it seems like were forgetting two others.. 1. Escorting the alchemist in fracture hills and 2. protecting the cave men on skelos badlands.. yes the ones you two still apply but mine.. urrrgh I got so pissed off at my two
I remember palying this when i was 10 still love thus game glad they released it for ps4
I remember playing these games on the ps1 without a memory card and having to complete them in one sitting, or keeping the console on over night. Oh the memories
im definitely getting this for Christmas
Getting it for my birthday.... which is in 2 weeks... I have to deal with that every year. Next awesome game comes out near the holidays and i cant touch the marketplace until Dec26th.. so if i get the game cool i own it and can start playing. but i'm already a month behind everyone else. OR i don't get it so I then buy it for myself and still get to enjoy it a month later. Wife doesn't like it when i buy every game i want so i get this like 3 out of 12 month span i'm not aloud to buy games.... life
Chick3n Nuggg3ts damn life indeed
Same
@@chick3nnuggg3ts53 Hope you enjoy Spyro remark
Before you buy Spyro just know that you're gonna love the game.
Played it ages ago when I was really really young. One of the first games I’ve ever played... nuff said, I’m really excited to get it on Thursday!
Spyro was my childhood, and I am playing it right now and the nostalgia is hitting me hard.
1:33 I'm sorry but did you just say MARIO WORLD?
But are they all on disk??! That part wasn't addressed...I don't want to pay for the first one on disk only to download the second or third ...
Only the first one is on the disk. You get a 19 gb update for the other 2
JET MAXIMUM90 they only have the first game and a few levels from the other games.
It's only a patch. As far as I was told in my local game store there is no download code or anything like that
@Daryl Dixon at least there is no download code that is tied to your account
Bro its your money i cant say dont worry like that guy about day one patch.... i wont get it an i wanted it bad.. im not paying for a phyical disc with only one game on it an not the rest.. their fooling us to get accustom to all digital.
I think it’s so cool seeing so many people hyped up for this game, it definitely takes a part of people’s childhood. I personally haven’t played the original ( I only played a demo off of a ps demo disc) the only games I remember having is tekken, crash and some Winnie the poo game lol. I was hyped when crash got a remake. With this I feel like I don’t have much of a connection I’ll probably wait for a sale in the future. As always thanks for the vids man, they always get me thinking about my purchases.
its finally being ported to steam. 6 weeks and I'm so pumped!
Bruh I loved this before but now idk what do u guys think 🤔
Get it bro
It's still amazing got it both on xbox and PS4
@@piolo1023 isnt it a PS exclusive??
Topstar no
I have it, it's definitely fun and the bright and colorful worlds will keep you entertained for awhile. If you were playing all day I could see it getting a little boring for some people but I'd say it's definitely worth the buy.
We not gonna mention that Spyro 1 is on the disc, but Spyro 2 & 3 must be downloaded to your hard drive? Kind of a big deal for anyone who has poor/no internet connection.
Are Spyro 2 and 3 still not on the disc?
@@SilverLeopard00 No, the games were cutting it short with the release date concerning the fact that 2 has a major boss glitch and 3's presentation is lacking and much buggier.
Just That One Guy Aww, that’s upsetting.
Unless spyro 2 and 3 fit in 6gb worth of an update....
36gb is on the disc, depending on platform. Im using Xbox as reference.
@@justthatoneguy737 I thought they pushed the date back so they could fix those? I'll probably wait till they release the full physical copy
Spyro was my first PS1 game. It was actually my first full fledged game that wasn't 16 bit. To see it all redone and made so gorgeously makes it a definite buy for me. To play it on my PS4 now feels like it has all come full circle.
i played it as a kid but going through it again i dont remember much, so its new to me still almost
would this be good for my 8 year old niece?
ofc
As someone who also has niece around 12, I would say this is definitely one thing she would enjoy playing.
I remember sitting at home when I was a little kid on rainy days playing Spyro with my mom right next to me. Now decades later being able to play Spyro again with such a gorgeous look makes my inner child so happy. Thank you to insomniac and to Toys for Bob for making me smile.
I love when you do this it helps me now if I want to buy games this why I am subscribe
Now I only need Medievil Remake and a Looney Tunes trilogy Remastered (Bugs Bunny: Lista un Time, Bugs Bunny and Taz and Sheep Raider) and I can be happy.
Medievil remake is already coming
Is it really? So glad to hear it, loved those games as a kid
@@AC-ze1nh yeah lol Google
The fact that someone else knows about Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time give this a like from me. Such a great game, sadly I never hear anyone so much as mention it when they talk about old games of yesteryear.
Oh man I loved Sheep raider. Remember as a kid it was challenging for me. As well the game was rarely ever in stock at Blockbuster.
I am afraid that whenever you mentioned not being able to move the camera in the original games, you were wrong. L2 and R2 are used to move the camera on the original games. This is also the case if you use the retro control scheme on the reignited trilogy. If you played the original games without moving the camera then you wouldn't get very far. So have you even played the original games ?
But the original ps1 controller doesn't have L/R 2. You had to buy a dualshock to be abke to move the camera.
Edit: I'm thinking of L/R 3
fire blaze games Yep this might've been an oversight or just plain lack of enthusiasm for making this video. In Town Square from the original, the first dragon you free will tell you without saying camera that you can use the shoulder buttons to get a good look around the level:
"Welcome to Town Square, Spyro. Begin exploring by heading to that area with the bulls, use the L2 and R2 buttons to get a good look" - original message
Nice spot, I did use the retro control scheme too to see what that was. Another question of something I don't get: why in the reignited control scheme does R2 make Spyro flame? Seems redundant, of course everyone who bought the originals will use the circle button to flame and that is flame too. I guess they wanted every button to do something, I dunno.
I love collectathons almost as much as I loved Spyro as a kid. Not a coincidence. I don't really have the time or money to get this collection right now, but probably before the end of the year, I'll give it a go.
Honestly, I have/played the original riptors rampage, so seeing those levels re created in HD quality with such beautiful visual made me reallly exited
Spyro for me is what crash was for others my gaming mascot is spyro
I love Both Crash and Spyro
@@royal1015 cool I never got to play much crash except unleashed that's the weird monster one where he has a tattoo right?
@@marvinthearson5227Yeah they give Crash edgy redesign , and Spyro in skylanders is abomination .
Same, at least for the PS1. Sonic was my original mascot (1-3, and knuckles). Then on PS1 it was Spyro. Then on PS2 it was no one really, just the GTA games in general.
