That's pretty much it really, there is nothing in this game that is fresh or original and they got the same villain from the second Spyro game however that is only the minor issue. There are gems to collect once again which are scattered everywhere in each level and in chests or metal creates. Bubble breathe is used to catch the dragonflies but some are earned by completing tasks set by your friends. There are 4 new breath attacks, bubble, ice and bolt which you get when you find the sacred runes. Gameplay is similar to the previous 3 games, Spyro can run around, charge, headbash, glide and breathe fire but there are some new moves. It's up to Spyro, his guardian dragonfly Sparx and friends to rescue the dragonflies and stop Ripto and his minions from foiling his plans. However Ripto (the main antagonist from Spyro 2 who somehow managed to survive the boiling lava, or that's the developers excuse for saving time by not creating a new villain) crashes the party and scatters all the dragonflies around the world. It starts off with Spyro and his friends celebrating the new arrival of dragonflies who will be each young dragon's new guardian. Instead we get something that is unoriginal and could even have been done on the PS1 and without all its flaws. For the first time our heroic little dragon comes to the PS2 and for a PS2 title we expect something massive, well that's what I think a next gen game should have if you want to improve it. Instead we get something that is unoriginal and could even have been done on If you love the Spyro series and had great anticipation for the fourth instalment, then your will be extremely disappointed.
