Ratchet's review

Hey guys, heres a review by me. Oh just wondering, what happened to my "If a remake was in order" thread.

Gameplay- 8/10
The Controls are fantastic and can be easily used, there are 28 levels, 34 if you include all the homeworlds and each level is quite big.
Though really all your doing is going around, toasting enemies and just collecting treasure and rescuing dragons, well actually, this is more fun then it sounds.
the enemies are all the different and so are the levels, the levels arn't on after another instead you can choose.
The gameplay is great though the bosses are quite easy and so is the game in general but once you have beaten the last boss you can do the challenge of collecting 100% and opening gnasties loot, a secret all flying 2000 gem level!

Story-7/10
The Story is quite mediocre because all you see is 3 cutscnes, they are well done and the story is quite inventive but there is not enough of it to ge given a full mark...
though this game doesn't really need story a little more wouldn't hurt

Graphics-9/10
The Game has superb 3d graphics and the playstation really pulls them off, you know whats what and everything looks like it should though they arn't as smooth as some other titles around the time like crash bandicoot 2.
As Said the levels are really inventive and everything is colourful, nothing contrasts.. this game has great graphics!

Length And Replay value-8/10
Even though you could probably beat the boss pretty quickly, the task lies to get 100% and gee, some supercharge spots are pretty tuff but you wont be biting your fingers like in Crash Bandicoot or Super Mario 64.
Even though the game is quite simple to master, it has great replay value and speed runs are a hobby. And For Some reason this game has some special magical feel you dont see in other games

Audio-9.5/10
Stewart copelands tunes are great and ver catchy... this goes along with some nice voice talent from the dragons giving Spyro advice, to Gnasty to Spyro himself.
The sound effects are good, the enemies make great, funny noises. Everything is great but we just couldn't give it a 10.
Avarage-8.3 round it up to 8.5
8.5/10 well done!

Stewart Copeland does make great music for the games. I wish they had a CD out for the first 3 Spyro games. He does a great job. All the music goes so perfectly with each level. It makes you feel like you are acualy there. smile

I noticed that Pur Said "no", why is this Pur?

i still think its a good review but ince i have been playing this game over the past couple of days there is one thing i dont agree with you about and that is story. I say that because i think the game could of had a bit more story and more cutscenes. So in saying that i would probaly give the story a 5/10 instead of a 7. but yeah other then that i agree with everything else
