Spyro 2 had a much greater variety in gameplay than its predecessor. In many ways, these were the necessary improvements all good sequels have to make. At the same time, this meant that Spyro 2 was also a far more frustrating game when some of the more irritating challenges were involved. Today, we will be…

Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage Review
I have now completed the first two Spyro games in the Reignited Trilogy, so it is time for another review. As is often the case with sequels, Spyro 2 adds a lot of new features to the Spyro formula. While there are a lot of improvements, there were plenty of frustrating moments, as well. Let’s…
Top 5 Spyro the Dragon Levels
Now that I have completed Insomniac’s first Spyro game, courtesy of the Reignited Trilogy, I thought it would be a good time for a nice top 5 list. Today we’ll be discussing the Duck’s top five levels from Spyro the Dragon! In general, I was either looking for levels I really enjoyed or had something…
Spyro the Dragon: A Short Review
For the past decade or so, I have been trying to catch up on the major PS1 games that I had missed. For about $10 per game on Amazon (with a few exceptions), I was able to play all of the old PS1 Final Fantasy games, including a few SNES ones that were remade and…
On Bungie’s Departure From Activision
Early last week, Bungie and Activision shocked the gaming world by announcing the Bungie’s departure from the publisher, and their retention of the Destiny IP. It was no secret that relations between the two businesses were tense since before the launch of the original Destiny, but they had an agreement; a contract that was supposed…

Comparing Crash Bandicoot 1-3
After many long hours of platforming peril, both delightful and frustrating, the Duck has finally completed the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. And almost with 100%, too. While I was able to get 100% in the first two games (minus the relics), I was not able to get the final gem in the third game. …
The Duck Finally Plays Crash Bandicoot
(Note: I know I’ve already written posts about playing Crash Bandicoot…I simply forgot to publish this until now….) The Duck’s mission to experience all the classic games I possibly can has been mighty successful these past several years. I’ve played such beloved SNES titles as Super Metroid, EarthBound, and Super Mario RPG. I’ve even caught…
Crash Bandicoot 3: Top 3 Favorite Levels
After having completed the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy on the PlayStation 4, I can easily count myself a new fan of the series. And out of these three delightful platformers, I would have to say that the third game is my favorite, with its fun variety of stages and less aggravating difficulty level (on…
Crash Bandicoot 2: Top 4 Toughest Levels
I’ve made it through the second Crash Bandicoot game on the N. Sane Trilogy (and published the episodes on Youtube…). And seeing as this was yet another challenging platformer, it seemed fitting to create another list of the game’s most aggravating levels. As difficult as the first game was, I think getting 100% in Crash…
