Not Much New HERE!!, December 5, 2002
Reviewer: A gamer from Forest Acres,South Carolina USA
All of the Spyro games rolled into ONE, but in slower motion! PS2 games are NOT "Faster Paced or Fast Loading"!! Just a BORE all around!!
good news for the spyro jaded, December 4, 2002
Reviewer: dimillet from AZ
Hey all,
I just called the customer service number that came with the game, and they apparently are issuing full refunds for the purchase price of the game now :) Just return the game with a copy of the sales reciept, no questions asked. Also, they said they're working on a replacement cd that will be ready middle of 2003 (though I wonder if that will be enough time to work out all the bugs.
Next time, Universal, I hope you can get it right.
not as good as the last, December 4, 2002
Reviewer: A gamer from martinsburg, wv United States
I am a big fan of the first three games, but this one is a disapointment. Long load times, the game play wasn't smooth, it wasn't set up in a organized manner, and I thought it was boring to collect dragonflies. Rent it before you buy it.
I'll play it!, December 3, 2002
Reviewer: A gamer from Oregon, CA
I like the new Enter the Dragonfly game for the PS2. Though, the graphics are great, it's not that much better than the original series on the PS1. Overall, gameplay is fairly easy. However, there are times where the camera motion really starts to bug. The sounds and the added voices in the game really make the game more appealing. In addition, the mini games invoiced in the game also make the game worth checking out.
Loads of fun!, December 2, 2002

Spyro came to me as a gift. My cousin gave it to me for my birthday. I haven't played many PS1 or PS2 games, but so far I'm enjoying Spyro. He moves around to new and beautiful places to gather up these dragonflies to save the dragon world. I'm not sure which characters are new to the series, but all of them are well animated. Spyro's movements are very smooth and look very real. I hope more games like this are released for PS2.

I was a huge fan of Spyro and couldn't wait to get this latest addition, but after playing for a while, I found it to be a huge disappointment. Don't waste your money on this one. The original creators of Spyro were not in on this one and it is so blatantly obvious. Universal Interactive should be ashamed of this attempt at what they call a game. Insomniac originally created Spyro and they did an amazing job. Universal's Spyro has too many glitches and flaws to list, not to mention the game is drastically shorter than the first three. If you want a great game, try Insomniac's latest creation for the PS2, "Ratchet and Clank." It is where the latest Spryo should've been with amazing graphics, countless challenges and breathtaking worlds to visit. Spend your money on that one, not Spyro. If you must try Spyro, rent it. You can finish this Spyro before it has to be returned!
Nice try, Vivendi, but I'm buzzed off. This Spyro is a drag., November 29, 2002
Reviewer: christophergray from San Jose, California USA
I was very disappointed after anticipating and ordering early... what a riptoc-off! I felt like i was the one falling off a cliff this time.
There's more bugs than dragonflys in this shoddy version of Spyro. For starters, someone should fire their Quality Assurance team (hint).
This obviously is the product of a company rushing to get product out before Christmas.
I just made it to the last level - in 5 days.
Despite... swearing repeatedly at the numerous forced restarts after random freezes, graphics glitches (my favorites were Spyro against an all black background, or suspended mid-air after the landscape disappeared leaving nothing but a sky), random re-appearances of the bad guys, framerate issues, annoying sounds that "stick" and buzz even when you aren't near the sound-source, Chloe not appearing out of the "sparkles", Chloe's saves not saving properly, saves between worlds failing, and general quality issues.
Despite... finding the shallowness of the product that provides only one quarter of the worlds to explore compared to previous Spyro games, trivial challenges, the repetitive nature of speedways, lackluster puzzles, no supercharges or precarious chases... etc.
I just read in the Sierra forums a post stating that someone called Tech Support and found out they will not issue an updated disk unless they get 100 calls a day.... fine with me. Once burned, twice shy I say . Bring back Insomniac!

Crash Test Crashed!, November 29, 2002
Reviewer: dieya-jeah from Canada
Being a big Spyro fan, I was looking forward to playing the new Spyro enter the dragonfly game. After getting the game and playing it, within a few hours i noticed so many bugs, faults and bad ploting it made me disgusted. I know the creaters are not the usual Insomniac (spelling is probably wrong) company but whoever these "Universal Interactive" company is, they should of paid a bit closer attention to the testing of the game before letting it out on stores. The game's filled with crashes, freezing and invisable items that can harm you that come out of no where can be very frustrating. Not to mention the plot is very bad and there is no ending what so ever. Personaly i think it was made to get money out of the name itself and not for the quality. Sadily if Universal Interactive continue making new spyro games i will not buy them and will encourage others to not waste their money. They did such a poor job that my liking in Spyro died with the "no ending to the game" of "enter the dragon fly". Sorry Spyro, if insomnac come back to making Spyro I'll came back playing within a heart beat..till then...universal will continue killing off the cute lil dragon as we know.
For a fun time check out Spyro, November 27, 2002
Reviewer: A gamer
Howdy. Hope u are doing well. I just got spyro and it's a pretty decent game. The various environments are pretty dope. There are a lot of them and some are very different, giving the game a variety. He also can shoot different things like electricity, ice and bubbles. For a fun time, check out the game. Great for all ages.
