The Legend Of Spyro: The Eternal Night

"The Game Boy Advance debuted in 2001, and now, in 2007, it’s on its way out. It’s a sad but inevitable part of every system’s lifecycle: the death, when new games are no longer developed for that platform."

"Up until now, I had never played a Spyro game, but I figure that any series that's been around as long as this one has to be doing something right. Then I noticed that the newest one, The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night, had a version on nearly every system available including the GBA. Frankly, I'm surprised by the fact that they still make games for the GBA, but this game reminds me of the systems enduring qualities – simple, enjoyable gameplay, fun and colorful graphics, and affordability (about $20 for this game)."

"Anyone can glance at the average review score of a recent Spyro game and see that Spyro brand usually means mediocre or worse. In fact, the game just prior to this one seems to have been particularly bad in its GBA incarnation."
