crash and spyro lose main gamplay

I read about Microsoft buying Rare.  Sucks for people like me who only own Nintendo products.

Great for people like me who jumped to Microsoft products.

I disagree Mech - I don't think Rare have had a hit game since they left Nintendo. Look at their success from the SNES and N64: Killer Instinct, DK Country 1, 2+3, Goldeneye 007, Diddy Kong Racing, Banjo-Kazooie, Jet Force Gemini, Banjo-Tooie, DK 64, Perfect Dark and Conker's Bad Fur Day.

And then look at the Xbox and 360 titles: Conker: Live & Reloaded, Grabbed by the Ghoulies, Kameo, Perfect Dark Zero and Viva Piñata. Some of those are okay, but they're nothing compared to the older stuff. Especially PDZ. I can't describe how disappointed I was with that game. That's another character who's been screwed over: Joanna Dark.

They're making a new one for 360.

Yeah, it's called 'Nuts and Bolts'. They've removed some of the platform elements to put in a focus on building things and racing.

I really hope that they pull off this one. It looks incredible, but gameplay's the most important thing. And if they screw it up, I won't be buying another Rare game again.

speaking of viva pinata, there will be one for the ds.

I saw how the game looks and I was all like,  "Is there any platforming in this game?". I wanted a new Battletoads game but seeing what they're doing now , I'm not so sure anymore.

*think* we are straying off-topic

ah well...i aint bothered really

[B.J.]

You're right, we are starting to get off topic.

Anyway it's best if Spyro has changed. To me, it's better to risk losing some fans while gaining new ones than losing almost all of your fanbase. Some who grew up with Spyro even like the new series better.

[MitchZer0]

ya, like i would trust some one who makes fairy tale point and click games, and the ever parodying space quest series to steal spyro

[B.J.]

Well, you could at least try them or adjust to them.

meh, you can just change the title of the thread

[B.J.]

Well, pizza zero was the one who created this thread, not me. I don't want to change another person's thread.

[TGLucario475]

oh?

EPIC LOL!

[Blackcat]

spyro losed main gameplay because it had some awfull games, and becaused they decided to reset his story. I was waitig for that giant drago mode in vain...

[B.J.]

What giant dragon mode in vain?

[Blackcat]

What giant dragon mode in vain?

Since Spyro changed his look in the second game, I tought they would make him bigger  in just a few games...

[B.J.]

The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon will be SO awesome!

[MitchZer0]

  

[B.J.]

Oh brother. Some people just can't try new things.

[MitchZer0]

sorry

[B.J.]

That's okay. To each his own.

The old Spyro may not be returning and has gone in a totally new direction, but Crash is the same character and the same storyline. If you want, you can still have faith in him. It'll be all right, pizza zero.
