Finally, Some new news! E3 is coming in 16th of May (not 15), and Spyro 4 will be there, I am so anxious to see it, do you think it will be greater than Insomniac's Spyro? Well, lets wait and we will get the answer very shortly.

By the way, thanks Hapoppo for the link, check out these pictures, this is Spyro 4 in the Game Boy Advanced!



So, Spyro: Year of the Dragon is out in North America and Europe (and I know that almost all of you know that), Spyro: Year of the Dragon is the last Spyro game for Insomniac Games, the creators of the Spyro series, because the validity of the contract between Sony and Universal has finished, and Havas Interactive has a three years deal with Universal concerning Spyro now, in case you don't know Havas Interactive, it is the owner of Sierra online (the makers of Half-Life, my favorite multiplayer game!) and Blizzard (the makers of Diablo and Star Craft) the estimated launch date is Spring 2002, and it won't be for the PlayStation 2 only, it will spread to reach the PC, the Game Boy Advance, Microsoft's X-Box. So, Spyro sure will have more fans, I hope so!

No words from Havas Interactive about Spyro, I don't know why they are hiding it! there isn't any tiny information about Spyro in their website!

Insomniac Games is currently working on a top secret project for the PS2, and it isn't speaking about it! what are they hiding? I am sure it will be a great masterpiece that will raise the PS2 position higher then the usual! so, we are waiting.

Important notes: there is a bug on the first release of the game (in both North America and Europe editions) this is when you play the racing challenge in a speedway level, if you didn't come in first place, then exit the level, the system will think that you got the egg, so if you try it again and win in first place, the system will tell you that you already have this egg even though you didn't take it! but relax, the bug is avoidable, if you didn't come in first, just keep trying, the opponents get slower each time you lose! but if you get bored from trying and you didn't come in first, DO NOT exit the level, just reset the PlayStation to disallow the auto save. However, the bug was fixed and a second version of the game has been released!

And you may encounter a bug in Fireworks Factory, where you miss 2 gems! to fix it, in the home world (Evening Lake World) pause the game and press Circle, Square, Right, Left, Right, Square, Circle, X, you'll hear a sound as you press the last 2 buttons, then enter Firework Factory and kill the 2 ninjas in the platform with a cannon below the tower with the gems to receive the missing gems.
