This was my first spyro game back in 2001 then bought 1 and 3. I can say my childhood was well spent. I never had a franchise impact me as much as spyro did. It will always be in my heart
I've been wanting to say this for the last 16 years: thank you, you wonderful people for making spyro 1, 2 and 3, the greatest games of all time thus making my childhood! much love xxx
Holy shit, I remember being a little kid and doing that challenge were you had to save all the cavemen. Some old internal rage just came back. Eventually, I got it, but god damn it was hard.
It's a memorization game, mainly. Your reflexes are kinda secondary. Once you get in the pattern of it and accept you are *not* getting it on the first try, it loses some of its frustration. I've beaten it plenty of times in the past, but I do dread it just a tiny bit whenever I see it.
I spent my entire childhood trying to see what was behind that wall in Dragon Shores.I started when I was 7 and I finally completed it at age 15.... and it was just a permanent power up.... I was so disappointed, but I had fun playing it. I still play this game today at 17 and I still Love it!
Everyone who participated in making this masterpiece: Thank you. Thank you so much for creating the game of my childhood. I loved every single bit of it and I still do. Sheer perfection.

Wow, when was this? I always loved the three original Spyro games, and this was my favorite. I have to get them someday again and play them. Oh my god, these were good days...
Might as well tell you: Getting all orbs gives you permanent superflame in Dragon Shores. There's a door there that requires all orbs and in there the permanent powerup for superflame. There is an unintentional way of bringing superflame into new game meaning you can replay the whole game with that power meaning no more supercharge needed unless we're talking timed challenges. This is how speedrunners play Spyro 2.
I miss this game so much, I grew up with this game as well as Croc: 2. It's a shame that they don't make these types of games en-masse nowadays, it's just more needless violence and it's just disgusting... These games were innocent and anyone could fall in love with them. I miss Spyro.
I remember Oliver Wade winning $32,000 on Millionaire. He was on Millionaire the episode after David Goodman became the youngest aged person to win the top prize on the U.S version of Millionaire. David Goodman still owns that title today.
Yea Spyro 2, and 3 were my favorite.. I just love the environments they have the game was so well put together and now days they have a fighting system :o Insomniac was the best gaming company when it came to Spyro and forever will be!!! I can't stand the new spyro games!!! AT ALL I wish they would still make them like this! They were so much better!
I have a demo disc with demos of PS1 games from 1998-1999 on it and the caveman level of Spyro 2 is in there. Guess they're really proud of that challenge.
That is SO true! I seriously thought about that as soon as I heard them say more challenging. Spyro 2 is my favorite Spyro game of that trilogy, however the first one was by far the most challenging.
Back when i was a kid i always thought spyro 1 was the hardest haha. Out of the original 3 though, 2 and 3 were always my favourite because of the side challenges / missions that they talk about in this video
And I do agree with your statement about companies only caring about money. (As for Insomniac, I know they aren't making Spyro anymore. I was referring more along the lines of Ratchet and Clank.)
I find it a little funny how they're all "Spyro 1 was about collecting stuff, but Spyro 2 is about completion" and then show the result of a task that involves, amazingly, collecting stuff. :P Still a fantastic game, of course.
i belive so. Spyro one was called originaly Spyro The Dragon. and Year Of The Dragon followed in the #2 spot b4 Gateway To Glimmer secured the #3 spot.
I love the Spyro games my favourite character other than Spyro was Hunter The Cheetah he was so awesome funny when I got Introduced to Bianca thought she would be a bad villain but then she became a hero towards the end of the game but an definitely getting this game for Christmas do not worry Ill start with Year Of The Dragon then Riptos Rage then the original
i actually did a school assignment on the games and it turns out that by the end of the third game insomniac were running out of ideas for the game anyway and thought it would be better to leave it on a high point (which they were going to) but then activision offered heaps so yeah :( they were so great though
even though I like tLoS I can agree on everything you said. it really felt like they were trying to make a movie rather then a game. I don't mind a cinematic approach to a game, but they went overboard. >.
I’m 26 years old and it took me a while to warm up to the skylanders redesign of him, it’s still my least favorite of all his designs, I miss the original Spyro. I understand that kids of this generation know him from Skylanders which is fine, I’m not going to trash it. I love cartoons and watched the tv series on Skylanders, it’s alright. I liked the legend of Spyro series, I remember playing those games and Enter the dragonfly and Hero’s Tale. I would really like for the first 3 Spyro games to be remade in hd on the ps4. Crash got his revival and so should Spyro.
"The bosses are big. They're badass- can I say badass? THEY'RE BADASS." haha
even hearing the sound affects makes me so sad. the orbs, flying things, gems, zapping noises, ughh.
i'll never stop loving all of this
+fizzymoth the feeling is mutual.. (The gem sound is my personal favorite)
These guys probably don't know, but i love all of them for making part of my childhood, congrats from brazil
This was my first spyro game back in 2001 then bought 1 and 3. I can say my childhood was well spent. I never had a franchise impact me as much as spyro did. It will always be in my heart

If you have a PS3 with PSN, You can Download the original Trilogy, for about 5-7 Dollars!
already did it friend, already did it.
Daniel walsh absolutely. These games made our childhood. We wouldn't be sane without them
Same here
Daniel walsh hi
Holy shit, I remember being a little kid and doing that challenge were you had to save all the cavemen. Some old internal rage just came back. Eventually, I got it, but god damn it was hard.
To this day I cannot beat that damned challenged.

Yes, i was very dissapointed too
Anyone else binge watching Spyro videos after the remaster was announced?
Imsoniac games god bless you
Ghost Insomniac *
I just beat this game (the original) for the first time ever as an adult! It was soooo challenging! But so fun and rewarding
thankyou insomniac games for making my and many others childhoods amazing!
A trilogy where you can tell everyone had the exact amount of freedom and fun they required, from the music god to the set designer
Miss my childhood, these were the days! :)
I would throw money at people to make these Spyro games HD
If you have a PS3 with PSN, You can Download the original Trilogy, for about 5-7 Dollars!
***** It's not the same. They have to make a remake to make the polygons look smooth and same as for the textures.
There actually _might_ be one in the near future, but that's only speculation as always.
+roamer45
are your sure? cause its now owned by ativision
I don't think we need an HD remaster. Just a port would be amazing.
I would just like to thank the people featured in this video; you made my childhood.
Everyone who participated in making this masterpiece:
Thank you. Thank you so much for creating the game of my childhood. I loved every single bit of it and I still do. Sheer perfection.
I still have the original copies of the first three spyro games...and I LOVE them.

Loved the game, thank you for the upload !
Wow, when was this?
I always loved the three original Spyro games, and this was my favorite.
I have to get them someday again and play them. Oh my god, these were good days...
God, if they had aired this on TV when I was five or so, I would've just flat out pissed myself with excitement...
Wish there was a making of Spyro 3 video.
GOD BLESS the people who made this game! INSOMNIAC THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY CHILDHOOD THE BEST!!
The greatest adventure games of all time past and future.
Remembered my childhood games!! :') Love this game
Oliver: We wanted someone with a real fiery temper
Me: Oliver has gamer rage
Thank you for this great game
Oh god the minigames- they will be the death of me. I swear I've had this game for eight years and I still haven't finished those goddamned minigames!

I love how Brian Hastings asks if he can say "badass" but an employee just yells out "OH, FUCK" at 3:08
Spyro 2 more challenging than the first one?!?! What about TREE TOPS!!!?!?!
SO GRATEFUL FOR GREAT MEMORIES !
I miss this game so much, I grew up with this game as well as Croc: 2.
It's a shame that they don't make these types of games en-masse nowadays, it's just more needless violence and it's just disgusting...
These games were innocent and anyone could fall in love with them.
I miss Spyro.
I used to have this game... Miss those days D:
May sound silly, but this is my favorite game on the PS1
Amazing iconic games!
Lovely memories :)
The ice skating is friggin' hilarious.
I remember Oliver Wade winning $32,000 on Millionaire. He was on Millionaire the episode after David Goodman became the youngest aged person to win the top prize on the U.S version of Millionaire. David Goodman still owns that title today.
Those people made one of my favorite childhood games
4:03 What the hell is wrong with Sparx? That's scary as fuck! xD
probably a textureless animationless test run of sparx in the cutscene
Yea Spyro 2, and 3 were my favorite.. I just love the environments they have the game was so well put together and now days they have a fighting system :o Insomniac was the best gaming company when it came to Spyro and forever will be!!! I can't stand the new spyro games!!! AT ALL I wish they would still make them like this! They were so much better!
Spyro: The only game with good water levels.
I have a demo disc with demos of PS1 games from 1998-1999 on it and the caveman level of Spyro 2 is in there. Guess they're really proud of that challenge.
Thanks RUclips recommended
That is SO true! I seriously thought about that as soon as I heard them say more challenging. Spyro 2 is my favorite Spyro game of that trilogy, however the first one was by far the most challenging.
When the Caveman spoke a wave of nostalgia came over me.
Loved the bone dance!!! xD
Good creative companies always find the time to have fun to enhance their work
i miss my childhood
i had alll the spyros cuz how much i was in love with it
i love spyro 2 probably one of the best
Spyro 1 and 3 are my favourite 3
I would rather pay to get the license back and make them make Spyro 4
Spyro Reignited Trilogy is out. It's great.
Back when i was a kid i always thought spyro 1 was the hardest haha. Out of the original 3 though, 2 and 3 were always my favourite because of the side challenges / missions that they talk about in this video
Although I'm more of a Ratchet & Clank fan, I have to say that IG'S Spyro games are almost right up there when it comes to fan.
THE NEW SPYRO REIGNITED TRILOGY IS COMING THIS SEPTEMBER
Is there a Behind-The-Scenes video for Spyro 3 available around here?
lol i was puzzling over the same thing :)
My favorite game.
Sony & Playstation used to be so much more friendly, comparing to what they are today in 2022.
And I do agree with your statement about companies only caring about money.
(As for Insomniac, I know they aren't making Spyro anymore. I was referring more along the lines of Ratchet and Clank.)
Was there a video for Year of the Dragon?
omg this brings back memories! who here agres they should make a spyrogame that was just like the old ones but with hd graphics!
See this is why all the games where SO good the game developers played it and saw if THEY liked it or not. And they got into it too....
13 years... 13 years and ive only been able to beat the dionsaur saving cavemen minigame twice
Damn, Insomniac had some cuties working on this game
I find it a little funny how they're all "Spyro 1 was about collecting stuff, but Spyro 2 is about completion" and then show the result of a task that involves, amazingly, collecting stuff. :P
Still a fantastic game, of course.
To think they would eventually make the best Spiderman game ever made by far
i belive so.
Spyro one was called originaly Spyro The Dragon. and Year Of The Dragon followed in the #2 spot b4 Gateway To Glimmer secured the #3 spot.
lol i love all the slipping
@TheDarkDuck93 I think you can buy them on the American PlaystationNetwork.
SPYRO HD PLEASE
***** thanks xD
It worked
:)
i love the characters in ths 1
memorise :'(
I played this on my ps3 but somehow it says no memory card inserted when I create a internal one.
Aw man i remember that! that minigame was hard as heck, but i eventually beat it. 1:13
Back in the days when games weren't made for profit but for fun.
4:03
early developing cutscene?
While I love 3 more, Spyro 2 is absolutely incredible
I love the Spyro games my favourite character other than Spyro was Hunter The Cheetah he was so awesome funny when I got Introduced to Bianca thought she would be a bad villain but then she became a hero towards the end of the game but an definitely getting this game for Christmas do not worry Ill start with Year Of The Dragon then Riptos Rage then the original
@TheDarkDuck93 the games are available on the playstation store so if you have a ps3 then you can get them on the playstation store
wow. I didn't no that mark cerny worked on this game. he looks so different now
Great interviews but couldn't they find a better backdrop than some stadium with a scoreboard....?
i actually did a school assignment on the games and it turns out that by the end of the third game insomniac were running out of ideas for the game anyway and thought it would be better to leave it on a high point (which they were going to) but then activision offered heaps so yeah :( they were so great though
I wonder who found the double jump
1:19 while is running spyro moves the wings differently! o.o watch closely!
it's interesting, that's the beta version. look at sparx and the wings while spyro is charging.
Where is 2:20 from?
Which one, money or fun?
makes me wish i had a ps3 to get it off the market, i played this game to death when i was growing up, i think i beat it like 10 times.
Chuck cracks me the fuck up
Good times, that's it I'm gonna play spyro's 1-3 again
@Hacczilla oh ok thank you =)
It's always been for money. It's up to the devlopers and artists to have fun with it.
Best one of the trilogy
*weakest
even though I like tLoS I can agree on everything you said. it really felt like they were trying to make a movie rather then a game. I don't mind a cinematic approach to a game, but they went overboard. >.
@SpyroLUVA Hopefully (in the whole "Spyro" category), our problems are solved. Just look up "Spyro Eclipse" :)
They're always taking applications
even they agree with the dinosaur minigame!
@funcooldrew2 It's a fan - based Spyro & if you want anymore info go onto this channel "Hoixsoft"

Saving the cavemen is the hardest minigame? Bull. Following Agent Zero to his hideout is the hardest minigame.
