Spyro 3 is, once again, more of the same Spyro. The levels are good once again, the gameplay is fun once again, the game looks and sounds nice once again. You really will know if you want more Spyro or not. The one aspect of the game that takes a huge dive from the previous 2, though, is the skateboarding mini game. It controls horribly and is completely uninteresting. You also take control of three other characters, each with slightly different gameplay styles to Spyro, and these sections aren’t as fun as controlling Spyro, nor are they different enough for the novelty to make up for that. Other than those elements, though, this is more of the same Spyro. If you’re up for that, then this is certainly that with a couple of rough edges which are, sadly, the result of any attempt at innovation on Insomniac’s part.
