Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

...one happens to be about Spyro 2: Gateway to Glimmer. I brought this game 2 weeks ago from Virgin Megastores for the amazing price of £14.99 and even better; I used my £15 vouchers courtesy of www.dooyoo.co.uk. Spyro 2: Gateway to Glimmer is the second of the three Spyro games. I have played demos of all three games and I have to say that the standard of them is excellent. Spyro is a great game especially as it is the first they brought out, Spyro ...
...first and Spyro 3 of course is the best of the lot. Spyro 2 is still a good game to play and it would probably be worth it to get all three games. This adventure begins with Spyro going on vacation to Dragon Shores. He is interrupted though and he is sent to Avalar where Ripto and his evil gang of creatures are trying to take it over. In this game the idea is to collect all the gems and orbs from all the different worlds, which then leads to you ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

...than before and after completing Spyro (1), I had to buy Spyro 2 - Gateway to Glimmer. This time Spyro and Sparx have gone on holiday to Dragon Shores. To get there he uses a magic gateway however, unknown to Spyro, Avalar is under attack by Ripto and his sidekicks Crush and Gulp. 3 of the inhabitants of Avalar, Elora, Hunter and The Professor are hiding out in Glimmer where they build a magic gateway in the hope of getting help off a dragon. Of ...
...into Avalar - Spyro of course - well if he didn't then we wouldn't have a game now would we!! In this adventure, Sparx is able to eat the small animals to restore his health, like he did in the first Spyro but this time every time he eats twenty or so of the butterflies, he will give Spyro a new life making it harder for Spyro to die - yipee!!! Longer gameplay!! We also meet up with the 3 new characters throughout game play and of course, Ripto, ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

I loved Spyro the Dragon 1 and when Spyro 2 came out I desperately wanted to get (bear in mind I'm 15!!)it, but had no money, so I was very pleasaed when I got home from a weekend away to discover my baby sister had got it! I immediately settled in to play on it. With 3 new moves - swim, headbash and climb Spyro takes on a whole new dimension. With a bigger, badder enemy, and more diffcult in between enemies too it was more of a challenge. The idea ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

Although this game will have been found by you in the Kids section, it is one of the greatest platformers of all time, and is enjoyable for All Ages. It was given 10 out of 10 in the Playstation Magazine, and is my favourite platformers across all the consoles I own. The game, although decieveingly simple and child-like, is so full of depth and imagination that it takes even the most avid game-player at least 10 hours to complete, and a young child ...
...25 levels in which there are a number of tasks that need to be performed by the loveable purple dragon. The game, released in 1999, now has another sequel, making it a trilogy collection and also a predecessor. However, it goes further in-depth than the original, and is better value for money than the original and so is therefore very worthwhile indeed. A definite must. ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

Spyro 2 is a great improvement on the first one. A fan of the first version anyway, I was delighted when this sequel came out. With more moves, longer playability and better graphics, sounds, enemies and ideas, what more could I ask for? The old idea of freeing dragons was thrown out the window, and instead there were sets of tasks that needed to be completed in order to gain an orb. Orbs and level talismans(obtained by completing the level itself) ...

...to reach previously unattainable areas. Spyro himself is very easy to control and will do everything you ask of him with consumate ease, after a bit of practice of course! The only disappointment in the game was the ending, in the original, when you had completed and collected everything you were rewarded with a bonus level full of lovely gems to collect with your flying skills, in this game you get a fairground to go to which is fairly entertaining ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

This is the best platform game around with very long game play and many levels to play on.The graphics look like a todlers game but it is very suitable for ages up to 12 or 13. Small children can play it but may need help from an older brother or sister in some parts. The objective of the game is to collect all the orbs. Some of the levels can be very easy and can get extremely boring as others are impossible and are also boring as you can't do them. ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

Spyro the dragon is a well presented and completely enjoyable game. In the words of my 6 year old son its "loads of fun". Having played the game a little myself (actually i have to be dragged from it!) i find it very easy to play with loads of games within the game, which makes it even more fun. I have however had to insert the memory card as the game can go on for hours. The graphics are clear and the sound effects spot on. I havent yet completed ...
...but that makes it all the more fun for the older kids...gives them something to make their brains work. I have played spyro1 and spyro2 makes the game a continuing experience. All in all a great game and i would recommend this to all my friends..and its definately one to buy. ...

...could expect for a playstation. There isn't anything new to this game which is a bit dissapointing but it is a lot more of the same which certainly isn't a bad thing. If you want to get Spyro and wondering which one it doesn't matter just which ever is cheapest! ...

Review of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage (PlayStation)

...begin with our purple dragon, Spyro landing from his most recent adventure, and something is wrong with he, and the other dragons! At this time instead of frying maybe another bug to feast on all they can do is freeze someone with ice breath. Your job, as Spyro, is to capture many fireflies and get them to the other dragons to restore their fiery breaths. Oh and as you play this game you'll get more ways to trap and destroy the enemy, and you'll ...
...of breaths, you'll be able to fry some enemies with your open flame, give your enemies the "shock" of their lives with a swwweeeeeeeettt zap of electricity, freeze some one to the point of freezer burn, and so on. The graphics are great as a cartridge game. Got to say, it's a great game! ...
