About this product

Product Information

Gnasty Gnorc was never taken seriously throughout his life. After all, it's not easy being ugly in a land filled with beautiful jewels and majestic dragons. So he started to dabble in magic, hoping to learn something that would make those dragons pay. He found it. Gnasty developed the perfect spell to cast over the peaceful land, turning all of those snooty dragons into crystal statues.<br><br>He even managed to transform some of the jewels into soldiers that would do his bidding! The magic wasn't perfect, however: Gnasty somehow missed a young dragon named Spyro. Now Spyro, along with his dragonfly companion Sparx, must embark on a quest to free his friends from captivity.<br><br>Take to the skies as a little purple dragon in this 3D action-adventure game by the developers of Disruptor. Spyro and dragonfly Sparx must travel to different worlds in order to end Gnasty's nefarious plans. Thirty free-roaming levels await players of all ages, and special treasure rounds will put their flying skills to the test. In total, there are 80 dragons to free, 10,000 pieces of treasure to find, and 12 mysterious Dragon Eggs to collect. <br><br>If so, you'll be able to traverse the following six areas: Artisans World, where you'll begin the game, is a world filled with rolling green hills, huge castles and several pillars to glide on; Peace Keepers offers desert-like terrain, enormous canyons and steep cliffs; Magic Crafters surrounds you with ice-capped mountains and sky platforms to leap from; Beast Makers consists of murky swamps, treetops and villages; Dream Weavers contains dark tunnels, haunted towers and bubbling lava; and Gnasty's World, your final destination, is where you'll be able to finally settle the score. <br><br>Spyro the Dragon also supports the Dual Shock Analog Controller so you can feel every hit, gallop and jump during your adventure. As the dragon, you'll be able to perform eight different moves: run, walk, glide, charge, roll, breathe fire, jump and fly. Players can also grab either the Fireball or Super Flame power-up to really make their enemies "feel the burn." <br><br>Music was composed by former Police band member Stewart Copeland and Spyro's speech is performed by Carlos Alazraqui, the voice behind Taco Bell's 1998 Chihuahua commercials. Many secrets and hidden areas are waiting to be discovered, but don't get too distracted -- your friends need you!

    LOVE THIS GAME

    I used to play this game every day as a child. :) so when we went and bought a PS3, it was common sense to search for my old childhood favorite PS3 game. I was bouncing in anticipation for the set of three to arrive at my door. When it was delivered, I immediately tore the package open and shoved one in and started it up. It was nostalgic. I loved every moment of it. Definitely worth the money to buy it.

    Shouldn’t have been for sale!!

    Game is locking up half way thru and can’t play any further and sound is really garbled, very scratched disc, not happy with it at all

  • Love the Spyro original game!!

    I love this game and am so happy I found a good copy! This is a fun, challenging, control manipulation and puzzle game. The soundtrack is great, the graphics are good (it's a play station original) for the time and the different worlds are increasingly challenging. I really do love this game. I am much more impressed with the simpler games for Nintendo and Playstation earlier platforms. I haven't found many games that I find simply fun. Spyro the Dragon certainly fits the bill!

  • Spyro is one of the best games out there. Very interactive!

    Absolutely love this game, even now as an adult there’s points that are challenging and keep you thinking. Yet at the same time basic gameplay is simple enough that the kiddo can play it. It’s great to see her stimulated for hours at a time exploring all the different worlds I was playing as a child. Wonderful game and I have all three from the original trilogy. I highly recommend all of them

  • Great Replacement Cases

    I needed better cases for my PS1 Spyro games. These cases are great. In Great Condition and more protection then the original cases that break easily. Very happy with this purchase!

  • Spyro is my favorite game.

    I've always loved the spyro games, and this is no exception. The graphics aren't the best, however it is an old game. Still a good buy.

  • Reliving the oldish days

    Can’t say old days. I’m used to Nintendo’s as well. Game works great and my sister in law loves it. She wanted it for Christmas because she still enjoys the outdated consoles. Perfect for her.

  • Spyro is one of my long-time favorites

    This is a PS 1 game and the graphics are PS 1 quality and the game is PS1 so don't expect PS 2 qualities.
