Amazon.com Product Description: Spyro is back for his third PlayStation adventure. Jump down the rabbithole to recover all the eggs stolen from Dragon World by the evil sorceressand her henchmen. The cartoonish look, the goofy sounds, and thescavenger-hunt gameplay will be familiar to anyone who has adventured withSpyro before. New to the series is the ability to play as Sheila, thekangaroo; Sergeant Byrd, the flying penguin; Bentley, the Yeti; and Agent 9,the space monkey. In Year of the Dragon, Spyro still has all of hissignature moves--as well as the special moves he learned in Spyro theDragon 2--and can control such vehicles as tanks, submarines, andspeedboats. There are over 30 levels in which to recover 150 eggs andseveral minigames that complement the standard gameplay, includingboxing and skateboarding.

Amazon.co.uk: Continuing in his hugely popular PlayStation series, Spyro is back in Spyro: Year of the Dragon, and this time he is cuter than ever.

The story starts with the familiar plotline of an evil leader taking hostages, leaving you as the only one who can save them and the world from this tyranny. Once you get past the cut scenes showing your family's eggs being stolen, you are presented with a wonderful array of colors, scenery, and graphics that play with your senses.

Normally, when a game is this graphically luscious, the actual gameplay suffers. Not so in this case. Year of the Dragon's 37 levels are packed with everything from running to skateboarding, as you chase around after the eggs and gem that you can lay your hands on for access to secret levels. The game's learning curve will suit old fans and newcomers alike. And, with other playable characters available, the story isn't just about Spyro and his flames.

This title has appeal for all ages--whether you're enthralled by colorful graphics and the nonviolent gameplay or looking for a new challenge, you'll find it all here. --Stuart Miles

Reviewer: Rob from The U.S. of America
This is one of the greatest agmes created. Its fun and makes you feel good when your down. If you don't own tjis game you don't know what you are missing. It's a great Chistmas, birthday, and all around gift. Get it for your kids it's something they will hate to grow up without. If you have Playstation 2 then get Spyro Enter the Dragonfly. Thats also a good game. These games are so good that i own them all!!

Reviewer: A 9-year old gamer
Spyro: Year of the Dragon is great. It is fun. I like everything about this item. Some people say " Your a girl and Spyro is for boys." Spyro is for boys and girls because it is adventures and daring. I only put 3 stars for how durable this game is because if you put the disc in the wrong way, it will brake. All and all, Spyro is fun for EVERYONE.

Pure stroke of utter GENIUS, November 3, 2002
Reviewer: ayavar0n from Sperryville, Virginia United States
This game is one of the things that proves there are still absolutely SPECTACULAR games waiting to be played and loved on the PS1. The plot is similr to that of Disney's Monster's Inc. Small bits of humor are spread out all-through the game. Albeit some of the jokes are just dumb.

GRAPHICS: Good for PS1 standards. The animations are fun and sometimes kinda funny.

GAMEPLAY: Varied, with lots of things to do. Its a huge game that doesn't get old to the very end.

SOUND: The music matches the levels and is very good. I'd say the same about the voices.

Ultimately this game is worth far more that the $ dollars you pay for it. I recomend it for EVERYONE who likes video games.

Really fun!, October 24, 2002
Reviewer: A gamer from NY SUBURBS
This game is ideal for the younger gamer. Even though it is just "playstation one" and the graphics aren't as advanced as some new games, the clever dialogue and amusing storyline keeps me hooked. It is just hard enough not to be frustrating. I would definitely try other Spyro games based on this one. Also you can get it at a reasonable price...

I think this game is really fun and funny. the music is cool. the movies are sort of strange. there is lots of charecters too. there is fun challenges.

I'd love to give this game 6 stars, October 13, 2002
Reviewer: Jody M LaFerriere from Leominster, MA USA
My almost 5-year-old and I are addicted. He can play this whole game ALONE, simply because the tasks are relatively easy, the graphics are fun and colorful, and the programmers took the time to include all the instructions and on-screen hints as dialog, not just text on the screen. For a kid who can't read yet, this is heaven - he doesn't need to ask mom to read the screen every 2 minutes.

There are also lots of hints and cheats available on the web, which allowed me to give my son 99 lives so he could just work on getting his hand-eye-coordination working, not worrying about accidently losing the whole game and having to start over.

Although he does like to start over, just to re-do some of the earlier tasks. And I'm as addicted as him. Because I don't play all that many video games, I'm not an expert at these adventure games. But I can play this one, and play it well! This is by far my favorite game for the Playstation.
