janjesnaju right? when I saw treetops I thought "wow he's gonna have trouble with this"only to find the whole level 100%completed two.minutes later... were we stupid kids? haha
I found Tree Tops a doddle, even as a kid, but the part that had me scratching my head for months was that dragon in Haunted Towers. I knew he was somewhere above me as I saw the hole in the ceiling and could hear him wobbling, and could hear the whirlwind. Could never figure it out until I got a free guide to Crash 3 and Spyro that came with a gaming magazine from the local shop.
@@hanyuukawaiinanodesu For me what had me stumped for years was Haunted Towers. At the time I couldn't figure out how to get that last Dragon and gems.
337%ing the Orriginal Spyro Trillogy (including all the skill-points.) is on my bucketlist. Why the abitrary assignment of the 120% as compleation in Spyro1, and the even more arbitrary 117% in Spyro 3?
Just realized at 10:15 in confronting toasty the level features an arms race between wolves and sheep. Wolves are disguised as sheep, and sheep are disguised as shepherds. Funny little detail.
1:23:02 it's awesome how hard you owned that last thief of the game :D:D I had to revert twice to understand what even happened and I had no idea it was even possible :D I also love the final treasure room. They put so much effort into that room alone to make the kids happy :D
Talked to my older brother about this yesterday. I recently showed him something from Theme Park Roller Coaster (2000) we thought was funny, and he said how bad it looked. I said “yeah, a ceramic bowl could pass as 5 sides of a cube, but with 8k we can see hair strands.”
This game gives % for following: 40% for all dragons 12% from eggs (I really think.) 48% for 12,000 gems which 1% equals 250. 20 extra % are from those last 2000 gems so bonus stage gives x2,5 higher %. I calculate if there's no multiply in bonus level then total would be only 108%
i got sooooo stressed watching you quickly glide from island to island.... especially since this was before you could hover in spyro 2 and 3. i was glued to this video. amazing.
Always loved how this game felt like a dream world. Granted, playing late at night before going to bed helped but the music and sound effects as well as some visuals really bring it home.
Wow! Great job on this speed run. This game was one of my childhood video games. Glad to see several secrets, especially the Gnasty death glitch. I wasn't expecting that. :)
Incredible run. I've played this game for almost my entire life, put at least a thousand hours into it as a kid, and even then you did stuff I never knew was possible.
Very impressive stuff, and much harder than it looks. I feel like I'm blazing through the game when I play it, and my personal record is 4:24:23. After watching this video though, I realize I'm an absolute slowpoke. Great run. I'll continue practicing.
I'm confused. I guess at "crystal flight" in the third world at 37:50, the dragon is still crystallized. When you come back out at 39:02, he's gone. Was it a glitch, or did you stitch some videos together?
This is called dragon skip. What happens is that when you enter a portal, Spyro is still gliding in the home world. It isn't until the camera touches the portal that the level actually starts loading. So what we do is manipulate the camera so that it doesn't touch the portal until after Spyro touches the dragon in the home world. Spyro touches the dragon which rescues it but then the level loads, so you effectively skip the entire animation of rescuing the dragon.
No it's not fake, you can see this trick used among pretty much all runners of this game and is in all of my other pb videos. I have 44 dragons before entering the portal, 45 when I exit. Also you can easily see me do this trick on all of my live attempts. You can watch my latest pb that I did on stream if you really want to prove yourself wrong.
At first I was completely wowed at the time that you did and thought it was completely fake but then I realize you were playing first one which can very well be beaten and that time the other ones at least need 4 hours. I’m going to try and beat your time today just because I’ve been beating these games over and over for the past 20 years I think I can beat it ;-)
I usually 100% artisans world, but then skip stuff in the following worlds because getting everything the first time through makes the game shorter for some reason. After defeating Gnasty Gnorc, I go back through the game and get the stuff I purposely missed. It makes it more fun that way
I felt pretty pleased with myself 20 years ago when I got it down to 3h50m, that's with all 1ups and no glitching but still that can only add about 5 minutes over all. This is impressive.
whenever he went into one of the more secret areas my brain would always say "secret area! secret area!" from when I played treasure planet for the PS2
Fun fact: the drummer for The Police composed the music for the Spryo trilogy (and I think he did Enter the Dragonfly too, but I'm not sure. But EtD is irrelevant because it sucked. The only good Spyro games are the first three. Any Spyro games to follow are irrelevant)
This is awesome - only level I could never finish on the original PS1 (I play on ps1fun website) is Wild Flight because once I get down in that little area, there's no whirlwind to get me out of that area meaning I'm trapped.
1h 24m? What a coincidence, that's about the time it takes me to reach the outer platform on Treetops...
janjesnaju right? when I saw treetops I thought "wow he's gonna have trouble with this"only to find the whole level 100%completed two.minutes later... were we stupid kids? haha
oh my god trying to figure out tree tops....that platform ugh
Get gud
Treetops is a bitch especially in reignited on pc with the wrong framerate
I found Tree Tops a doddle, even as a kid, but the part that had me scratching my head for months was that dragon in Haunted Towers.

holy shit this was the first video game i ever played, my childhood

Chip's Challenge on Windows 95 was my first ;)
Not my first. I think my first was super mario on the 64. And when my dad got the PlayStation and spyro. I wasn't seen since. LOL

this game took me 15 years to 120%
was it that one gem hidden in the very back behind the starting area in cliff town?
or the speed run/jumps in the tree tops?
It's been about 17 years since I first played and I still haven't got 120%
It took me 3 hours.
To get 120% completion?
@@hanyuukawaiinanodesu For me what had me stumped for years was Haunted Towers. At the time I couldn't figure out how to get that last Dragon and gems.
The thieves never stood a chance

"I'm Thor!"
"You're Thor?"
"Well, it hurts!"
I never actually beat it, but I loved playing this game nonetheless.

I remember the first time I actually got everything as a kid. You almost feel like a huge part of you is complete

OMG! THE MEMORIES! I still love this game to this day
Just realized at 10:15 in confronting toasty the level features an arms race between wolves and sheep. Wolves are disguised as sheep, and sheep are disguised as shepherds. Funny little detail.
Omg truly amazing speed run! It has a few minor mistakes like in Misty level but that shows this is a human playing.
That's a new level of "satisfying videos" right there
Girlfirend: Wanna come to my house in Gnasty's Loot?

i dont understand what happened there
The music gives me nostalgia
U played reignited?
HE WENT INTO MISTY BOG'S ROOM OF DEATH AND DIDN'T GET HIT ONCE. I CALL HAX!
this brings me back to the early 2000s when I was little and used to play this game
Chris, I've been watching you for like 2 years now gotta say man you're so smooth like down to the core.
i remember this having a HD graphics when i was young.
dont worry about hd or 4k in old spyro games cuz when we get dat remaster dis year on ps4 we all gunna be tankful
Yeshua Echevarria now we just need to wait till September :D
mandala effect it looked really good but you switched timelines to where it didnt look as good
Sirkrodz I remember this having high res textures

shit dude you know what you're doing. I love this game.
This is simply outrageous
still have my first copy, little worn out but stills plays. this is so much fun to watch.
THE SPYRO GOD
Congratulations man. Always a pleasure watching you work.
So calculated...
12 year old me after seeing that Tree Tops run... "Am I a joke to you?"

spyro the mad serial killer,
that's what it looks like atleast XD
Man this brings back some great memories. My favourite game growing up. Thanks for the upload.
I can barely do the flying stages let alone speed run them. You did a fantastic job!
Even before the gem count has flipped over you know you got all of them... impressive 😂
I just realized this, but literally all the dragons are male. How do they propagate their species?
As far as I remember, the dragons are delivered in their eggs by fairies rather than birthed. I guess all the female dragons die young or something.
yoingjoe Let's say Insomnac Games didn't had women to make the dialogs lol it's horrible
Maybe the dragon gals simply have gruff voices
Did you just assume the dragons gender?
Bruce Banner from Infinity War: We..didn’t think about that 😐??
Wow! Great job on this speed run. This game was one of my childhood video games. Glad to see several secrets, especially the Gnasty death glitch. I wasn't expecting that. :)

😳
Sunny Flight : I never thought raising the clock past 50 would be possible
AMAZING! Truly amazing! I can imagine that this must have taken so much practice and constant retries.
Great vid! Whats the deal with breathing fire mid flight? Height boost?
No reason, just keeps the fingers busy
ChrisLBC Gotcha. Thanks

20:48 is an accurate illustration of how he made every enemy in this game feel

I'm so sad that I missed this stream :( Even so, congrats on breaking your record! Hopefully, I'll be there the next time you do it. :)

Jesus! Whoever’s playing this is a badass!
The point to treasure ability would've come in handy in this game. In some of the levels, the treasure was hard to find.
Egg-straordinary collecting there, my friend. Egg-straordinary indeed.
WHOS EXCITED FOR THE PS4 REMASTER THIS YEAR!?!?
I am
i remember getting to those dragon mouths and i couldnt open the last one cuz i didnt complete everything
Man.
I love this game
I use to play it all the time with my grandma.
It is the best game!
I still have my game cube too xD
I felt pretty pleased with myself 20 years ago when I got it down to 3h50m, that's with all 1ups and no glitching but still that can only add about 5 minutes over all. This is impressive.
whenever he went into one of the more secret areas my brain would always say "secret area! secret area!" from when I played treasure planet for the PS2
I like to think that this is what it would look like if the story was actually being played by Spyro himself.
i love it XD, great job on the speed run my man :D
I aspire to be able to do half as well as you did in this run. You're unreal at it!
I never got to the final boss but this was my childhood
This guy is on a new level
I had to get a new disk just to 120% this xD. Kept freezing on Haunted Towers ;n;
Nice run man! Been playing this game for over a decade (no speedrunning) and thought I was just amazing at it. There's always someone better...
don't u get bored after a decade?
TheGreatslyfer I always come back to this game for nostalgia, playing for about 12 years
Dyl Pikkle 12 years u can add vat on that
David Marchant vat?
Dyl Pikkle vat stands for value added tax. So when u said 12 years im saying its been out alot longer by saying plus vat
The first minute of this cider revealed the door that I've heard but never been able to access since a child.
Lol wut
18 people obviously didn't have a childhood. Spyro is boss.
This is so satisfying, Nice run:)
You make it look easy catching those egg thiefs . As a kid I would get so frustrated chasing those douche bags around.
you should make a TAS next to show off some extra swag
Fun fact: the drummer for The Police composed the music for the Spryo trilogy (and I think he did Enter the Dragonfly too, but I'm not sure. But EtD is irrelevant because it sucked. The only good Spyro games are the first three. Any Spyro games to follow are irrelevant)
Gnasty Gnorc: Behold Spyro! It is not gonna be easy. I'm gonna crush y... w-wait what the hell?
Good job mate !
watching as I get ready for next month release
Wow this is amazing! Who cares if someone else got the 123 this is super impressive and I hope you know it!
Great job!
Welp. Fuck my childhood, I guess.
Congrats for WR!
This will be my passing time when Spyro remastered comes out
My guy used his lunch break well
This game has become dated with time but do I love watching the game. I sure do hope they remake the Spyro games like they did with Crash.
Yeah so do I
They're making a remastered version of Spyro's 1-3 I believe.
@@mishuncompree1362 Remaster no, remake.
When you beat this game 120% for 10 years and that speedrunner beat in 1 hour
This is awesome - only level I could never finish on the original PS1 (I play on ps1fun website) is Wild Flight because once I get down in that little area, there's no whirlwind to get me out of that area meaning I'm trapped.
Tree tops never looked this easy
This guy would fail the captcha test
can't wait to see you pull this shit for spyro reignited trilogy
what a beautiful game
OMG my thumbs would die
these were the days... these were the days...
Wow, crazy impressive!!!! Well done!!!
so why is it faster to skip a bunch of stuff initially and then loop back around to it?
7:10 makes me feel good even the masters can't get that shit every time. I used to save it beforehand and I got it once after like 50 tries.
Imagine doing this exact speedrun but only realising in like the last homeworld that the recording software had crashed. lmao
my mind is collapsing because of to much memorys
lol the dark passage bit is much more funny to watch goin crazy with dogs (not like previous 120 speedrun i watched
great speedrun ! very entertaining.
Holy shit dude, that was awesome!
I loved this game so much as a kid!!!!
1:24:29 THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
im going to attempt to beat it one day. but thats a story for another day.
gameplayer2014 today is the day
Today is the day
