So Why are Spyro The Dragon 2 and 3 Downloadable?

It won’t take long before Spyro the Dragon will be refreshed on the main generation of consoles. With a remaster of the original (and best) games in the series, he will once again compete with a rival that received the same treatment last year: Crash Bandicoot. While Spyro might have a massive fanbase, recent news might award Crash the title he’s been longing for since the 90s.

To screw with longtime fans

Chaos_Order2508d ago

Well obviously they just don't want my money.

Shineon2508d ago (Edited 2508d ago )

Because Ps4 is the first PlayStation to not play PlayStation games from the hardware#facts

letsa_go2508d ago

I don't think you have a clue as to what you are talking about!

Shineon2508d ago (Edited 2508d ago )

Put a PlayStation one disc in your ps4 and see what happens its really sad 😢 It cant play it! Whats wrong with yall?What you cant handle the truth?Is it too much to for you.Ive owned every generation of PlayStation and still got games from every generation.Tekken 3 soul reaver tombraider 2 speed punks twisted metal 2 and metal gear solid I still have.Its hard being a fanboy when rhe truth smacks you across the head but here it goes again.The Playstation 4 cant play OG PlayStation games from hardware and its the first PlayStation that cant play them.So be mad at Sony not the devs for not giving you the other two games because your ps4 wont be able to run it without a internet connection and PS now as of August2018, will it change hopefully, its Sony they might remake them for you huh good news smile 😃.# pssssp Ps4 cant play PlayStation2 disc either dont tell nobody people get mad on here

@ Shineon
Before you go getting even more indignant, how about you first read the article so you have actual understanding of the issue. (Hint: Backwards compatibility has nothing to do with it.)

letsa_go2508d ago

Apparently you can't fix stupid!

Shineon2507d ago (Edited 2507d ago )

To screw over people who wanted this game. Thanks for effing with my childhood.

JonTheGod2508d ago

The answer is simple - to interfere with pre-owned sales to force people to either buy new or pay extra for parts 2&3 if they get it 2nd hand. Worthy of a protest methinks.

Nothing but joy and excellency for us on Gamepass!

Top of the line remake from 2018 you could have picked up for under 5 bucks.

I'm serious though games awesome and was a highlight in a very packed year but let's not overstate it's value 6 years on.

Lightning77229d ago

I wonder why they're doing slow roll out of ABK stuff? It's been a year I wonder why the slow roll out.

Fishy Fingers229d ago

I'm sure it'll slowly get added. Its constant content they can add and I imagine in the hopes it will get people to maintain their sub. Drop it all in one chunk might boost numbers for a bit but unlikely to keep people long term.

Lightning77229d ago

Similar to Bethesda stuff. They release the full slate on GP and I guess it didn't do as well for them. I'm hoping they're remastering the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games as well as others.

InUrFoxHole229d ago

Never played the series. Gonna give it a go. GP is a great service.

The_Hooligan228d ago

I played the original trilogy on my cousin's PS1 back in the day and they were amazing games. I picked up the remake last year when it was on sale on PSN but haven't gone back yet. But if this is your first time playing it, you will have a great time.

InUrFoxHole227d ago

Jesus. I remember the ps1. I remember being baffled by how something so powerful could fit in that little console lol

DivineHand125229d ago (Edited 229d ago )

Good for persons who are subscribed to the game pass, but will it be 30 fps, or is it getting a boost?

I bought the game on PS4 but stopped because the game offered little to no challenge. I dropped it and picked it up again on PS5 a few months ago. That was when I realized that it was locked to 30 fps and uninstalled it.

It would be great if Microsoft could find some way to release an update to set both Spyro and Crash Team racing to 60 fps and beyond.

Profchaos228d ago (Edited 228d ago )

It seems unlikely that it would get further enhancements at this stage a 2018 release that was already enhanced for the one X native 4k from memory. Also the animation work and motion blur used did slot to make the 30fos gameplay feel responsive and smooth to its credit compared to other 30fps games with significantly worse input lag like yooka laylee which iirc on PS4 pro felt horrible to play with a control delay vs the PC which felt snappy.

If you stopped because of the lack of challenge I don't think 60 will suddenly change the way you play it games extremely simple and was built around a early 3d exploration framework that targeted families so difficulty was quite low

Profchaos228d ago

Hasn't this been on gamepass for a while now

*Sigh*

Sometimes it's hard being a Spyro fan. Yeah, i really really really want Spyro 4. Crash Bandicoot got a 4th one, its only fair.

MWH973d ago

Nothing is guaranteed in this life, so don't wait on anything.

This is what happens when Toys For Bob gets pushed to help develop COD
