Gameplay haven't changed since last game, though it feels clumsier and stiffer. Levels and homeworld are pretty boring and blank. Loading is terrible. The story feels like it isn't finished. How did Ripto survive? The game didn't explain.

Insomniac leaving Spyro made everything change. The Spyro we loved was replaced. The bold colour pallet of the originals were gone and replaced with a duller beast. The gameplay changed; from a platform heavy game with simple combat to a combat heavy action platformer. Believe me, I loved the originals. But this felt rushed. Gone with the hub worlds. Glitches aplenty and overall was lacking the content it deserved. The originals were better then this. Extremely disappointing.… Expand

This is one of the worst games I have ever played with Superman 64 and Sonic Genesis. This game is basically incomplete. The frame rate, story, game play, and voice acting is terrible. The graphics are decent for 2002 but that's it. NEVER PLAY THIS GAME!

After the success of the first 3 Spyro games on the PS1, Insomiac decides to randomly abandon the Spyro series. The series is then sold to Universal and the first game they decide to release is Enter the Dragonfly for the PS2 and the Gamecube which is the first time a Spyro game was released on a non Sony console. Some people say the reason why the game is bad has something to do with Universal rushing the game for the holiday season which caused a whole bunch of glitches and bugs to be left alone. I believe there is more to it than that. First off, the game is completely unoriginal. The story is copied from Spyro 1 but except for rescuing dragons, you are rescuing dragon FLIES. Yeah, that's totally 100% original. That's only the tip of the iceberg. Speaking of ice, Spyro can now breathe ice as well as water, lightning, and water including Spyro's trademark, fire. What? Dragons are known for breathing fire. Not ice, water, and lightning. And the worst part is that they don't do anything different except breathing water is completely useless. And do you want to know the worst part about this tragedy? THE GAME LOOKS JUST LIKE THE PS1 GAMES. The developers showed little to no effort trying to make the game look good, or play good for that matter. This game is bad. I do not understand why Spyro was not put out of his misery instead of keeping Spyro on life support. And sadly, this is not the worst game of the Spyro series.… Expand

When I heard about this game I was really excited to get it. After playing it I noticed how much the gameplay would lag. I tried to keep a positive attitude towards the game until I noticed the 2 minute loading times and difficult gameplays on side quests. The game could have great potential if it wasn't so broken. The graphics were mesmorizing and I like how I could choose different powers for Spyro's breath. Why did they break this game?! It now sits on my shelf collecting dust.… Expand

This game is fun and feels like a spyro game, but due to the long loading screens, very poor framerate, and overall a rushed feeling in most of the levels, makes it lose the magic that made you love the first 3

I am sorry, this is a bad game. Enter The Dragonfly isplagued by glitches, slow moving Spyro, unresponsive controls, and a bad storyline. I always loved Ripto, but his return deserves so much better than this. Don't play this. It may be part of the canon, but I still wouldn't recommend it to any fan. If you want the only good non-Insomniac Spyro game, go play A Hero's Tail. That is the only good one outside of the original 3.… Expand

Because Enter The Dragonfly refuses to part ways with its PS one predecessors, it feels overly familiar and overly cliche. Pros: Impressive graphics, lavish colors, and reasonable controls. Cons: All too simple and familiar gameplay, excruciatingly long load screens, and a lack of depth in imagination.

If you love the Spyro series and had great anticipation for the fourth instalment, then your will be extremely disappointed. For the first time our heroic little dragon comes to the PS2 and for a PS2 title we expect something massive, well that's what I think a next gen game should have if you want to improve it. Instead we get something that is unoriginal and could even have been done on the PS1 and without all its flaws. It starts off with Spyro and his friends celebrating the new arrival of dragonflies who will be each young dragon's new guardian. However Ripto (the main antagonist from Spyro 2 who somehow managed to survive the boiling lava, or that's the developers excuse for saving time by not creating a new villain) crashes the party and scatters all the dragonflies around the world. It's up to Spyro, his guardian dragonfly Sparx and friends to rescue the dragonflies and stop Ripto and his minions from foiling his plans. Gameplay is similar to the previous 3 games, Spyro can run around, charge, headbash, glide and breathe fire but there are some new moves. There are 4 new breath attacks, bubble, ice and bolt which you get when you find the sacred runes. Bubble breathe is used to catch the dragonflies but some are earned by completing tasks set by your friends. There are gems to collect once again which are scattered everywhere in each level and in chests or metal creates. That's pretty much it really, there is nothing in this game that is fresh or original and they got the same villain from the second Spyro game however that is only the minor issue. The real problem with this game is it suffers from too many flaws such as graphical glitches, inconsistent framerate, long loading times sound issues and sometimes freezes meaning you have no choice but to reset your console and start back from where you last saved your progress. According the sources this game was rushed in order to be released at Christmas time, if so then it is not all the developers fault but also the publishers. Had it not been for all the major issues I'd give this game a 6 or 7, however one bug is far too many. Quite simply this is not just the worst Spyro game but the worst game I have ever played in my years of gaming.… Expand

this game lacks a good storyline, the graphics and camera angles are horrific, but the loading times have to be the worst thing about this game! the fact it was rushed out to release gave the impression they wanted to do more, but couldn't. It was meant to feature 25 levels, but only included 9 when it was released! very disappointing!

I love this game but it could of been way better. the game was origanally going contain 25 levels but universal forced check6 to rush it and it ended up with nine levels and it was glitchy. it made me sad. its all universals fault. if they didnt force them to rush it it would probly be better then spyro 1 2 and 3 i still like the game. I am just mad at universal for forcing check6 to rush it.

It was really disappointing. This game had potential to be a decent entry to the series but due to it being rushed for release it came out all wrong. First of, there are only 9 levels to visit and only 1 boss. From this you know it has been rushed. There was apparently 25 levels supposed to be featured in this game. The gameplay is sluggish and slow. Spyro moves at a snails pace and the enemies aren't any quicker. There are alot of gltches too and let's not forget the long loading times. There are some good points to the game. It still manages to have the Spyro feel to it like the previous titles. The soundtrack is great by Stewart Copeland. The level design is pretty good, it's just a shame there are few of them.… Expand

This is what made me seriously look into a game before I buy it. I purchased this when I was young, using the 50 bucks that I got for my birthday. When I played it, I was utterly disgusted, and supremely PO'ed. I absolutely loved the PS1 Spyro games, so I thought "Another Spryro game with PS2 graphics, sweet!". But, without my knowledge, top-knotch game developer Insomniac sold the Spyro franchise rights to profit-hungry Universal. The result was a game that barely tied in with the originals, had gameplay that wasn't even as good as Spyro 1, a horrible plot, and very short in comparison to the first 3. Looking back at it, I'm suprized I wasn't seriously mentally scarred by playing this game. After staring blankly at the screen for a half hour after completing the game, I broke the disk in 2 and tossed it in the trash. Most people will have more fun burning a 50 dollar bill than playing this game.… Expand

i used to love spyro for Ps1 but this is not spyro this is horrible some of the worst games beat this by a longshot. DISGRACE

Sucks But i love the other 123 games of spyro.

Horrible load times, freezes up in key areas making you replay and this is what is good about it! This is not the Spyro we know...it is a crappy Spyro. A spyro for profit not fun...dont buy! Dont play !

It realy rocks.

A very good game. Sure it is not as good as V8 Supercars but it is still an awesome game with the graphics, sound effects, unlockables. If you finish it and just shelve it, you need to be shipped of to a mental hospitial.

It was entertaining for a while, but then it was just monotonus. It seems the game makers were using their 'beautiful eye-catching graphics' to make up for this pathetic exuse for a platform game.

Ah...a wonderful series RUINED. it never has been more of a flop since the Crash Bash game for the psOne. Whichever way you look at this game, its crap. The sound is horrible, the graphics are choppy and so filthy the develpers of ths game should be considered sinners, and the gameplay is even less then the very first spyro game. Honestly wat a garbage game. and as Gamespot said, "even the most di-hard fans of the Spyro series will have a hard time enjoying this." To the publishers that ruined this beloved platforming series, damn you.… Expand

The spyro legacy is desecrated by this uninspired "trainwreck of a game". The developers responsible should be locked up and forced to play this glitchy, frustrating and half-baked tripe until their thumbs are bloody stumps and they have completely lost their sanity. Who cares about the fancy water ripples and flame effects when the frame rate is worse than ps1 versions and the game locks up each time you play it. Worst sequel ever.… Collapse

I was a huge fan when the series firts came out but take my advive and stick with the originals on PS one. :(

This game is alright. Once you get stuck in it has lots of decent features. 9 levels isn't enough but it's got fab graphics. I all so found it stalled and movies ran at the worst times (Ripto finding out the dragonflys were scattered when I was above 50%.) Not worth £40 but O.K in the long run!

Sadly, this was my first time ever playing a Spyro game - and it was an utter disappointment. I had heard from friends that the purple dragon who, er, glided around frying sheep was great, but they were talking about the other games. Enter the Dragonfly has frozen on various accounts, Spyro has gotten stuck for minutes at a time, the game has trouble staying on pause, and the camera angles make it difficult to control. The graphics were fairly mediocre, nothing really spectacular, but it's one I definitely won't be buying anytime soon.… Expand

Well to tell the truth I wasted my money. The graphics are ok but the game has way to many glicks in it. To many times have we have had to restart the game cause it froze on us. We have the frist three and love them but this one was no good.

The graphics are great. the game is a little short but that's ok. and the hints are the best they get my brain thinking:)

The game was a waste of my time and money. Not only are the load times unbearable, but it has crashed on me more times than i can count. The sheep have exploded- like the characters in the shrek bloopers. the game unpauses itself. And I lose control of spyro. He has refused to move on my comand and he randomly gets stuck in "deflect mode". I loved the previous spyro games, but i cant stand this one. I regret buying it. I wouldn't recomend it to anyone.… Expand

The style of play is beginning to be the same over and over again. I loved the first, and the other two were good, but Spyro is just getting old. They need to make more changes in the game. And the controls suck. You can't get him to look where you want him to. The graphics also stink. It may be ok to test the game out on a rental, but no more.

The graphics are cool, it is more playable, and I do like the multiple breaths. But I also think it was too short. What's 9 levels? It also took some getting used to. And it costs $50! I'm sorry, but $50 for a game, is rediculous!

Some people say that only little people would like this game and that it is too short i agree with that but just because i'm not a little person or that i think it's too short i still like it.

I spent the majority of my time with this game waiting for it to load!

I loved the previous PS1 Spyro games and was under the assumption that PS2 would be bigger and better. What went wrong? Did they sack all the 'Spyro Year of the Dragon' designers and recruit a bunch of kindergarteners. The graphics are ordinary, camera view is annoying, loading times rediculous and the rating I gave is being generous!

Oh, if only this game were all I had hoped it would be. My 8 yr old HAD to have this game, we have all the others. I was looking forward to getting it for her, because I had enjoyed playing the others myself. The graphics are ok; the controlling REEKS, you can't get him to look where and when you want to, and it is too jerky; and is anyone else but me thinking that the speedways are cheating you from winning the race against the flyers??? What a disappointment.… Expand

This game is a briliant masterpiece, that everyone should buy. The graphics are great, the worlds are simply beautiful, and the plot is amazing. This is definetely worth 50$!

The game has changed, but in a bad way. The camera never matches with the character, making you dizy. The levels are unorganized. There are mini games, which are on levels, but are called levels. Compared to the original, it is horrible.

In the first spyro games we would have rated the game a 10. Your new game. Is a joke, over half the area don't even work. I should have burned my $50. it would have been more enjoyable.

Like Gamespot said "a train wreck of a game" It is unplayable. Horrible, terrible, yuck!

My family and I love playing the PS1 Spyro games. With our new PS2 we decided to make Enter the Dragonfly our first game purchase. While the kids were asleep I thought I'd give the game a test run: The graphics are mediocre, the "new features" okay, but the jerky graphics, and slow loading times make this game a definite DON'T! (I'm actually fuming!) I'm gonna try my luck tomorrow and see if I can swap it for something better. I'm too emberassed to show this game to the kids...… Expand
