Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly (GameCube)
|
|
|
| Description:
The Spyro games on the PSone are remembered by many as some of the console's best 3-D platform games, and quite rightly so. In Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly, his first next-generation adventure, the world's smallest, friendliest, purple-est dragon is back to jump, glide and start brush fires, and the new game starts off well as you watch the dastardly Ripto accidentally disperse the magic dragonflies across the gameworld and force you, as Spyro, to bring them all back to safety. One of the best things about Enter the Dragonfly is the huge number of moves at Spyro's disposal. As you'd expect of any dragon he can jump, fly, hover, head-butt and breathe flames--but now he can also breathe ice and electricity as well as magic bubbles (very handy for catching dragonflies, and a clever nod to arcade classic Bubble Bobble). Unfortunately the main problem with the game is the graphics, which, although they look okay in the screenshots, are very jerky when you play the game. The level design isn't terribly imaginative either and the game as a whole is surprisingly short. Since Enter the Dragonfly isn't made by the same team as the previous Spyro games--those guys went on to make the excellent Ratchet & Clank instead--it's perhaps no surprise that it isn't quite up to its predecessors. It's still a quality game though and certainly one to consider for fans of the series. --David Jenkins

When I got this game ,I didn't expect it to be very good ,but I was wrong .It's much better than the one's on PS1, because you get new powers such as electric, bubble , and evan ice.It also has hilarious levals, such as, cows getting abducted by UFO's,Tropical island but I won't tell you any more because thats for you to find out. But I recamend this to everyone because ,it is so great. |

Spyro the dragonfly makes his debut on to the gamecube. This game is quite tough in someplaces for the younger gamer but it is worth the purchase if you are a platforming fan. The graphics are not the best on the next generation console but the gameplay can be quite rewarding, at times the game does go slow when you're running with spyro and the camera angle is poor at times. Not my favorite gamecube game and certainly not my worst worth purchasing for the platform fan, a spyro fan, or for the right price. |

WOW! this game is a stunning piece of art! if you have the chance, buy it! the graphics are the best i have seen and the game play is fabulous. there is one bit that i was in fit of laughter about! buti wont tell you because it will spoil it for you. The game lives up to its sibs on the playstation, but in this one spyro talks. to sum up, it is an amazing game and everyone should own it! you dont know what your missing! |

In a word, this game is dire. The graphics are sharp, but the series is predictable and awful. The only even remotley amusing part is when cows are abducted by UFO saucers, other than that, nothing. Even remotely intelligent kids will kick this game into touch quickly. Avoid like the metaphorical plague. |

not as bad as the reviews

Yes the graphics aren't the greatest and the storyline isn't the most gripping, but if you're after a game that you can just sit down and enjoy then this is the game for you. Graphics aren't everything in a game and i feel that there is sadly too much emphasis placed on them these days. This may be the reason for the not so dazzling reviews of this game but as far as a bit of fun goes i can get plenty out of this. The bosses and villains aren't too difficult and it is perfect for the younger gamer or someone like me who doesn't like baddies that are too hard to kill. In conclusion, not the best game for the cube but there are far worse and this is well worth the buy!! |
