Playstation: The Official Magazine: compliments Spyro

I was reading the latest issue of PSM and there was an article about DoTD. It said that if your parents wouldn't let you play GTA, Spyro was a great alternative.

Hear that? PSM is comparing Spyro to GTA (Grand Theft Auto) That is something you don't hear often.

theres good reason for that, im gonna have to make sure i see the trailer for DotD because i cant see how it could compare to GTA

GTA tends to be so popular because of the huge free roaming world, the freedom to do whatever you want etc. DotD must be pretty different to the previous 2 if its being compared to GTA because they had basically 0 freedom, they were completely linear

im not complaining btw, i think its great if DotD has free roaming, beats a 3D sidescroller any day

woah, spyo being compared to GTA. Well that could be good. As Fletch_Talo said, GTA has a huge free roaming world and spyro is being compared tpo that so now he may have a hge free roaming world again.

I didn't mind linear...

And IGN as well! big_smile

But Spyro is nothing like GTA, nor should it ever be.

If you can't play GTA, I'd suggest a RTS. Much more fun. big_smile

Well, the franchise is staying alive....

Spyro_Loves_Me · Jun 14, 2008 6:40 AM

Hmm. Well that's nice to see that it's been said in several different places. I wouldn't think they'd choose Spyro as an alternative. Especially with all the other choices. yikes
Very nice though.

Yeah. Good to see that they MIGHT be mellowing out towards Spyro for the first time in a few years.

YES! A turning point..

Opps, it was GoW. I misread the article. Same difference. GoW is just as big a GTA and is a great comparison. God of War was being compared to Spyro, not GTA to Spyro.

... how do you mistake Gears of War for Spyro? Or was it just a minor misplacemement on your part?

Kamineko · Jun 15, 2008 1:15 AM

No, I was talking about I mistaked the comparison. They were comparing Spyro to God of War. Not Grand theft auto.

Fletch_Talon · Jun 15, 2008 5:27 AM
