oh man, just hearing the music for the boss fights brings back so many memories. Sigh, this was a pleasant blast from the past. I recently played Spyro 1 on a PS1 emulator and while it was very fun, I realized that apparently the controls are not easy to remaster after playing on current consoles for so long. So I got the 'deja vu' without the pain - thanks!
I think there might have been time/engine constraints that prevented true boss fight mechanics. If you think about it the "bosses" were programmed no differently than regular enemies besides the fact that they ran away and you had to hit them multiple times.
Morten Pedersen yeah the noises he made and then when he came rolling at you and he would literally be shaving the scales off of spyros ass sure gave me goosebumps lol
Enjoyed watching this. You played with speed but also kept the keen awareness that a real fan would have about the game. Those little near falls and all remind me so much of myself and my fast paced style
Ripto suffers one of the most gruesome fates. Even when I was playing as a kid, I thought dying in lava was pretty brutal. Plus he has the best fighting music. What's strange is that he came back in a sequel. It's like you thought you destroyed the terminator for good, but he just keeps coming back.
I know, but Ripto was the first villain to die in lava, so it had the most impact on me. I also feel bad for the Earthshapers you had to push into lava back in Fracture Hills.
+DramakilzU Ripto lives, he is a lava lizard dino, the kind you fight in the caveman stage, they're immune to lava, he comes back in enter the dragonfly, season of flame, attack of the rhynocs
***** well it's universal studios' fault for giving the project to new developers just out of school who haven't made a game before and then bum rushing them for christmas
I swear, the dog enemies in Toasty’s level still freak me out a little. Getting attacked by a bush later in the game didn’t scare me, but a big ass dog that took 2 hits to kill scared the shit outta me.
The games which carried my childhood: Rayman, Spyro and Crash Bandicoot ! Buzz's music is such incredible ! Remember me so much nostalgia with my brother ;(
Also I just noticed something. After watching this the Sorceress is the only boss that attacks your friendly AI. The other bosses don't even acknowledge that they're there. But the Sorceress will launch her electric balls of Doom at agent nine I just noticed that..
ripto is the only final boss that really does it justice. tho having a fakeout death with the sorceress is pretty cool and movie like. but with ripto it goes on for ages, from fighting evenly, to a robot gulp and then flying all over a lava filled arena as everything gets more and more perilous. its truly exactly the sort of epic finale you want to see and play, I wish the other final bosses could manage it on this scale
These are some good tips... let me see.... Crush: Blue means jump, Red means charge, flame him to cause the rockslide, time the blue and red just right, run away from him when he has 3 HP left. Blue for first 2 HP, Red for next 2 HP, both with 3 HP left Buzz: Always charge him where he is closest to the lava, when run along the edges when he rolls after you, don't charge with a ring of fire, able to charge when he blows it Spike: Punches you when close, shoots from afar, shoots twice when using rocks, shoots three time when using red magic, shoots 4 times when using blue magic, watch out for flames from the ground, charge away when he uses blue magic, jump over when he uses red magic, watch his shots carefully and dodge them quickly Scorch: Watch the shadows of his laser shots to see where they'll land, rings around him are a protective safeguard, green rockets last once, red rockets have 50 rapid-fire, uses eggs for foes (First crabs, then TNT yetis, then fire trolls, finally Buzz), yetis and trolls will try to explode near you so make them explode away from you, attack crabs like always, defeat Buzz by shoving him into the ooze or using rockets, use rockets wisely and not when Scorch uses his safe-guard Sorceress (I): Dodge her flame-balls, don't let her swat you with her wand, uses laser shots that vary from 1 to 3 to several, attack her first with cannon, then attack her with portable cannon, then finish her with the flying saucer, know how to fly it to avoid falling into the lava or get hit by her, jump off the vehicles if an attack is coming towards it, don't try to get too close to her or she'll swat you with her wand Sorceress (II): Saucer Battle, know how to pilot the saucer to avoid her shots and crashing into the ooze, fire at her as much as possible, aim and drive well
ur a pro man i remember my young age i finshed nasty knork and got half way threw the 2nd but u are a pro cant wait for the remake!!!! loved this vid reminded me of my young years and the parts i couldnt get to
Bosses practically run away in Spyro1, so all the bosses be like *purple dragon that looks like he's going to headbutt us...* RUN AWAY! haha, but anyway, great video! liked! cant wait to see more from you!
"another noble warrior falls victim to the plague of love" and yet love is what stopped you from becoming evil in the legend of spyro series. but that's none of my business
Spyro 2 had the best bosses. They were phenomenal. The ones in the first game were ok, same goes for Year of the Dragon (although Scorch was pretty good).
I remember spyro 1 never really had a serious boss fight. But spyro 2 had some really challenging and fun boss fight, and I especially love the final fight with Ripto. Sadly I never got far with spyro 3.
if I ever made a list of things I didn't like in the three games Spike would be included. If I was that type of lady I'd have been cussing like a trucker! or maybe a sailor.
Here's a tidbit of info not a lot of players know: you can dodge Spike's laser shots at walking speed. I felt like a god when I first discovered this for myself.
Helpful tip to save a few seconds, in the fight with Buzz when the circle of fire is around him, you can get close and jump head ram him without taking damage. I would speedrun the game using it all the time.
I still have my ps1 and 1 and 2 of the games. I lost year of the dragon, I miss it so much. I saw online that it was available to buy. I should get to it soon before it becomes too difficult to get ahold of.
ahh, this brings back so many memories, but i always had a problem, i could never beat the sorceress bcs she would kill me but after that, all the progress i had done into the game turned back to 0, and i had to start all over again, was that normal? anyways, finally watching her being beat up its amazing.
Woah the bosses in the first game are even worse than mine Edit: Woah spyro 2 bosses were amazing,why were there only 3 though. Edit2: 3 was good and had really intimidating bosses but it was a bit too repetitive
In both the old version and new version of this game when You face Spike I've hit him with three lava rocks before he jumps and smashes the platform revealing fiery geysers before he jumps in the fire guys come out of the platform you'll have to work quick to hit Spyro with two lava rocks I've done that many times playing the original game and the newer version of the game
Uggh the nostaligia. I wanna live inside this universe... the music was fuckin good on these games also (I think it was made by the drummer of the police)
Scorch is my favourite one. He is flying, looks really dangerous and spaws earlier boss (Buzz) and other creatures. The battle is really badass especially when you hear this awesome music. I think Ripto is the second one and Spike (the hardest boss from spyro 3 imo) would be the third. Boss battles in Year Of The Dragon are really cool except the Sorceress. :/
Well, ALMOST no damage is more appropiate for title. :)
Neverthles is good
3:28
11:37 damage
I always loved the bosses in the second game. They were challenging when I was younger and the fact that there was more than just chasing them around.
Never knew you could make gulp hit himself with his own rocket
darkgemxx its a great speedrun tactic.
Can we all agree that Ripto was by far one of if not the most fun boss in these three games
Swifty Artz yep
That's way Ripto has used more than Gnasty Gnorc himself
I used to think the rocks that fall on crush looked like cocoa puffs
Lmao!
Spyro was such an awesome game. These colorful world still remains in my head till my death, lol :-D
oh man, just hearing the music for the boss fights brings back so many memories. Sigh, this was a pleasant blast from the past. I recently played Spyro 1 on a PS1 emulator and while it was very fun, I realized that apparently the controls are not easy to remaster after playing on current consoles for so long. So I got the 'deja vu' without the pain - thanks!
3:30 no damage? Lies.
does it fucking matter?
CarlaDaFox I does when it's titled "NO DAMAGE"
11:38 too
Man yo twelve year olds don't know between accidental and perpous.... Damn grow some balls
Bob Martinez "perpous"
My favorite boss was Ripto. Suspense, Action, and Thrill.
Spike from year of the dragon used to scare the shit out of me as a kid lol
I always thought the bosses in the first game were pretty weak. I don't really consider them bosses.
I think there might have been time/engine constraints that prevented true boss fight mechanics. If you think about it the "bosses" were programmed no differently than regular enemies besides the fact that they ran away and you had to hit them multiple times.
If you think about it, the games were all made more than ten years ago.
Same. Those were like normal levels with normal enemies, basically.
You also have to remember this was made almost 20 years ago
Here tell you what,spyro one was made in 1998
I like the old games for nostalgic reasons
But the new beginning series is awesome!
Yea. I like Cynda
And now the old games is back in September
Buzz. That dude was fucking scary as a kid.
Morten Pedersen yeah the noises he made and then when he came rolling at you and he would literally be shaving the scales off of spyros ass sure gave me goosebumps lol
Enjoyed watching this. You played with speed but also kept the keen awareness that a real fan would have about the game. Those little near falls and all remind me so much of myself and my fast paced style
Toasty, Doctor Shemp, Blowhard, Metal Head, Gnasty Gnorc, Crush, Gulp, Ripto, Buzz, Spike and The Empress all disliked this video.
Doctor Shemp and Metal Head have since disliked it. Blowhard, Jacques, and Scorch have not yet watched it, as they are still nursing their burns.
yeah and everyone else who noticed the multiple times he took damage. if he takes damage on a no damage run he deserves a dislike.
*BayareaGuy06 Who's The Empress? Do you possibly mean The Sorceress?*
Don't forget Scorch
BayareaGuy06 And Jacques?
Ripto suffers one of the most gruesome fates. Even when I was playing as a kid, I thought dying in lava was pretty brutal. Plus he has the best fighting music. What's strange is that he came back in a sequel. It's like you thought you destroyed the terminator for good, but he just keeps coming back.
DramakilzU I love how the camera focuses on the bird like, "Hey that Bird is the real evil. Ripto ani't jack :P"
I know, but Ripto was the first villain to die in lava, so it had the most impact on me. I also feel bad for the Earthshapers you had to push into lava back in Fracture Hills.
+DramakilzU Ripto lives, he is a lava lizard dino, the kind you fight in the caveman stage, they're immune to lava, he comes back in enter the dragonfly, season of flame, attack of the rhynocs
+Shinyhunterlobo and ShinyhunterRaven It's so unfortunate that Enter the Dragonfly was so... underwhelming
***** well it's universal studios' fault for giving the project to new developers just out of school who haven't made a game before and then bum rushing them for christmas
"Blowhard" that just sounds wrong
Glad i'm not the only one who thought that
chocolate flavored oppossum XD
It means someone who’s full of hot air, which Blowhard is, considering he’s just a sheep dressed as a giant shepherd. He’s a fake, living a lie.
Just like your name
My Top 5 Battles
1-Ripto
2-Crush
3-Scorch
4-The Sorceress
5-MetalHead
No Gulp?
I swear, the dog enemies in Toasty’s level still freak me out a little. Getting attacked by a bush later in the game didn’t scare me, but a big ass dog that took 2 hits to kill scared the shit outta me.
Man, I hope these games get a remaster like Crash.
Jake Wade spyro the Dragon, aw-some history
Wish Granted ;)
Prayers have been heard! Sep 21st my man!!!
Jake Wade they are
Coming pretty soon~
The bass and lows in the music is one of the best things about Spyro! Such great games!
Ah the 90's; Crash Bandicoot, Spyro and sir Daniel Fortesque are the best memories of my childhood.
Sir who??
@@a-dubwashington1429 Fortesque from MediEvil.
The games which carried my childhood: Rayman, Spyro and Crash Bandicoot ! Buzz's music is such incredible ! Remember me so much nostalgia with my brother ;(
I can't wait for the remake next month. Spyro 3 is one of my favorite games of all time.
I love the "boing" sound from Crush :3 So nostalgic when I remember I used to die to that xD
I don't remember the Sorceress making that unholy noise in the pal version of the game O_o
Gnasty Gnorc: Huge monster, pansy ass sniper.
Ripto: Little guy, *EPIC MAGICAL BOSS FIGHT!*
Sorceress: Wishes she could be like Ripto.
Also I just noticed something. After watching this the Sorceress is the only boss that attacks your friendly AI. The other bosses don't even acknowledge that they're there. But the Sorceress will launch her electric balls of Doom at agent nine I just noticed that..
doctor shemp has got to be one of the best boss fights ever simply because it's so damn funny
15:13 RIP Hunter.
16:12 RIP Clockwerk.
ripto is the only final boss that really does it justice. tho having a fakeout death with the sorceress is pretty cool and movie like. but with ripto it goes on for ages, from fighting evenly, to a robot gulp and then flying all over a lava filled arena as everything gets more and more perilous. its truly exactly the sort of epic finale you want to see and play, I wish the other final bosses could manage it on this scale
These are some good tips... let me see....
Crush: Blue means jump, Red means charge, flame him to cause the rockslide, time the blue and red just right, run away from him when he has 3 HP left. Blue for first 2 HP, Red for next 2 HP, both with 3 HP left
Buzz: Always charge him where he is closest to the lava, when run along the edges when he rolls after you, don't charge with a ring of fire, able to charge when he blows it

Scorch: Watch the shadows of his laser shots to see where they'll land, rings around him are a protective safeguard, green rockets last once, red rockets have 50 rapid-fire, uses eggs for foes (First crabs, then TNT yetis, then fire trolls, finally Buzz), yetis and trolls will try to explode near you so make them explode away from you, attack crabs like always, defeat Buzz by shoving him into the ooze or using rockets, use rockets wisely and not when Scorch uses his safe-guard
Sorceress (I): Dodge her flame-balls, don't let her swat you with her wand, uses laser shots that vary from 1 to 3 to several, attack her first with cannon, then attack her with portable cannon, then finish her with the flying saucer, know how to fly it to avoid falling into the lava or get hit by her, jump off the vehicles if an attack is coming towards it, don't try to get too close to her or she'll swat you with her wand
Sorceress (II): Saucer Battle, know how to pilot the saucer to avoid her shots and crashing into the ooze, fire at her as much as possible, aim and drive well
So happy im not the only one who was terrifyied by Buzz as a kid. The other bosses scared me too. Great games and I cant wait for the remakes!
I always loved the sound of Gnasty running
spyro made my childhood. I loved him. I have aaall games..oh my god I think I have to play them again!!! 😍
Every time I tell my girlfriend "blow hard!" she says: "Yeah, that was the most awful boss in Spyro."
I loved how there was so much side enemy's on the way to the fight in one.
Dat Gulp rocket hit tho
ur a pro man i remember my young age i finshed nasty knork and got half way threw the 2nd but u are a pro cant wait for the remake!!!! loved this vid reminded me of my young years and the parts i couldnt get to
You took damage on metal head and gulp besides that really awesome job man!
Bosses practically run away in Spyro1, so all the bosses be like
*purple dragon that looks like he's going to headbutt us...* RUN AWAY!
haha, but anyway, great video! liked!
cant wait to see more from you!
thank you. keep the spirit alive !
Spike? No damage? I call hax (great video, such nostalgia, much wow)
Man also that music for the Gulp battle is used on soooooo many movies! But I first heard it here ha
Can't wait to see all the boss battles in the Reignited Trilogy!
What emulator is this ran through? The quality is insanely good!
Can't wait to see these bosses in the reignited trilogy!
"another noble warrior falls victim to the plague of love" and yet love is what stopped you from becoming evil in the legend of spyro series. but that's none of my business
Am I the only one who thinks its wierd that buzz's weakness is lava when he breaths fire later on
You took damage at metalhead and gulp
My childhood started crying practically. Spyro... what has Activision done to you. You will never be the same :(
Are you going to do it in the remasterd when its comes out? 👀👍🙌
Spyro 2 had the best bosses. They were phenomenal. The ones in the first game were ok, same goes for Year of the Dragon (although Scorch was pretty good).
Bentley's dialog kills me. He talks like a college professor. LOL
cant wait to see this in the HD remasters
SOme video game characters are actually helpful, spyro 3 proved that.
how did you capture that footage it looks amazing
I remember spyro 1 never really had a serious boss fight. But spyro 2 had some really challenging and fun boss fight, and I especially love the final fight with Ripto. Sadly I never got far with spyro 3.
I come from 2018 to say the trilogy is getting remastered. September 21st can't come fast enough.
i look back and wondered why did I ever have the hardest time with these bosses
the bosses in Spyro 1 were such a breeze, you almost thought they were regular enemies
I really hated fighting spike it took'ed I died 2 to 3 every time I fought him he was so damn hard to fight ....
I well add this other boss's wore easy to fight for me but not spike...
spike well all ways be the hardest boss for me...
if I ever made a list of things I didn't like in the three games Spike would be included. If I was that type of lady I'd have been cussing like a trucker! or maybe a sailor.
Here's a tidbit of info not a lot of players know: you can dodge Spike's laser shots at walking speed. I felt like a god when I first discovered this for myself.
I did it first try 😳
Helpful tip to save a few seconds, in the fight with Buzz when the circle of fire is around him, you can get close and jump head ram him without taking damage. I would speedrun the game using it all the time.
omfg the memories! my childhood right here
I still have my ps1 and 1 and 2 of the games. I lost year of the dragon, I miss it so much. I saw online that it was available to buy. I should get to it soon before it becomes too difficult to get ahold of.
Whitney Miller you can get all three soon on ps4 lol
The video: No Damage
Also the video on metal head at 3:28
ahh, this brings back so many memories, but i always had a problem, i could never beat the sorceress bcs she would kill me but after that, all the progress i had done into the game turned back to 0, and i had to start all over again, was that normal? anyways, finally watching her being beat up its amazing.
Everyone is like but you took damage. I'm just here like omg buzz makes a cameo in scorch's fight?! I don't remember that at all.
Woah the bosses in the first game are even worse than mine
Edit: Woah spyro 2 bosses were amazing,why were there only 3 though.
Edit2: 3 was good and had really intimidating bosses but it was a bit too repetitive
Crash Bandicoot woah
11:24 that was either sheer luck or well calculated.
lol the sheep on stilts. The sound track in Spyro is amazing.
The draw distances are impressive for the ps1 in these games
I am not looking forward to Buzz in the remake. he scared me as a kid (23 now). can't imagine what they'll do to him.
i second this 😹
COULD GULP ATLEAST HAVE A BREATH MINT
Spyro 3 is by far my favorite
Ripto's death was so fucking hilarious
In both the old version and new version of this game when You face Spike I've hit him with three lava rocks before he jumps and smashes the platform revealing fiery geysers before he jumps in the fire guys come out of the platform you'll have to work quick to hit Spyro with two lava rocks I've done that many times playing the original game and the newer version of the game
Really makes me curious how they're re-adjust the bosses for Spyro 1 and 3 to make them more enjoyable when the remasters come out.
I didn't know toasty could even hit you XD
my childhood in 30 minutes..
Yeah right, you got hit by Jacques' electrical beam at 3:27. Now you need to redo this all over again without most definitely getting hit.
Are you doing a boss rush on the remake when it comes out
Uggh the nostaligia. I wanna live inside this universe... the music was fuckin good on these games also (I think it was made by the drummer of the police)
Nostalgia is real :)
How do you get that HD Graphics ? :O
Let's hope the Spyro 1 bosses have health bars in the Reignited Trilogy.
Scorch is my favourite one. He is flying, looks really dangerous and spaws earlier boss (Buzz) and other creatures. The battle is really badass especially when you hear this awesome music. I think Ripto is the second one and Spike (the hardest boss from spyro 3 imo) would be the third. Boss battles in Year Of The Dragon are really cool except the Sorceress. :/
Ah, memories!
You actually took damage twice at Gulp, how do you not notice that!?
i remember a glitch where if you jump at just the right time as he charges you you'll be rocketed out of the stage but can glide back]
I wonder if the remastered version will up the difficulty of the boss fights
How could you defeat Spike so easily? Sometimes it takes a lot of your lives in order to defeat him. I envy you, man!
once you memorize his pattern it gets easy to avoid losing lives :)
18:30 the only boss that i could remember :'))
Yes, because Town Square is an excellent alternative to Jacques
I prefer Spyro over Crash, except when it comes to bosses!
3:31 you got hit by that robot guy.
The world seemed so huge back then..
You got hurt at spike too, but went back to get the egg huh? No shame, spike was a tough boss on the first try.
This is supposed to be no damage but you took damage in both Metalhead and Gulp's Overlook.
