Toasty is a cakewalk with no challenge whatsoever. I know three levels from a single game are in no way an all-encompassing showcase of the entire package, one that spans three separate titles, but the action just wasn’t all that fun. As I stood in the elevator, I had to ask myself if I had any fun in the proceeding hour. It’s a nerve test of a level, the complete opposite of what I experienced with the other two. It’s a great showcase of how the flying levels will handle but also lousy for the E3 show floor due to how easy it is to lose.Ĭontrols in this stage, as with the rest of the game, feel a little loose and due to how Sunny Flight is set up - a timed challenge where players have to eliminate a series of objectives before the clock runs out - it’s something I attempted several times before I even got close to actually beating it. In addition to the aforementioned stages, I was also able to take Spyro to the skies in Sunny Flight. I was given the opportunity to play three levels of the game, two of which will be on display on the E3 show floor. Toasty himself has never looked better and everything from the dogs to the wizards to the primates of Tree Tops all sparkle and shine. For instance, the dragon of the Toasty Realm is an artist, something that ties into the various paintings seen throughout the stage. Spyro himself has 100 times the geometry for more expressive facial animations and every dragon you save on your adventure is now unique. Spyro Reignited Trilogy features some of the most charming animation and designs I’ve seen out of this console generation. In a hotel room near the convention center, I was given a look at the game running on an Xbox One X and crikey does it look amazing. I got a chance to go hands-on with Reignited before the kick-off of E3. Spyro Reignited Trilogy may be the same type of divisive game. It was very much a love it or hate it type of experience, one that appealed far more to fans donning a pair of nostalgia goggles looking to recapture the adventures of their youth. It was a beautiful throwback to the early years of 3D platformers before developers actually started getting good at making those types of games.

Depends on if you’ve played the games beforeĪctivision absolutely hit it out of the park last year with the Crash Bandicoot N.
