Ripto is the aggressive and ill-tempered warlock that was summoned to the land through a portal error and it’s up to you to develop the skills to defeat him with the finesse Spyro is known for! Year of the Dragon (2000) This game takes an interesting twist as a portal is opened that brings forth a bunch of bad guys to put in their place.Įach dragon has been carefully crafted and the graphics have been improved upon the last title. There are many new character additions with only Spyro and Sparx from the first game. Ripto’s Rage was also in the same era with basically parallel elements to the first one but with some new additions. Here you will hunt down Gnasty Gnorc while navigating through challenging platforms and collecting rewards.
The Playstation was still new to the scene and this was a different era of gaming where things were set in motion to where we see Spyro today. This classic platformer was forged to compete with the Nintendo 64 System and it certainly had some positive reviews at the time.
This was developed by insomniac Games and Sony Computer Entertainment was the publisher. This was the first entry in the series and it’s obviously less sophisticated than what we see today on next-generation consoles.
