[lisang99]

ooooooooooold gooooooooooooooood times......

[YouAllSuck5000]

@lisang99 Don't you mean "gooooooooooooooood ooooooooooold times......"?

[lisang99]

@YouAllSuck5000 I do not speak good English, I'm from Argentina! haha

[YouAllSuck5000]

@lisang99 Ah, sorry then.

[marckid93]

my reaction to those gilapups: "d'awwww! so cute :D" but then when the lights went out, O___________O!

[JaneRhonda626]

:'( back when Spyro was cute and the games were actually fun to play. The series is just horrible now.

[Kingofironfist25]

Gnasty Gnorc disliked this.

[TheSkillzombie]

[theegabisstranded]

AWW! A CUTE LITTUL DOGEE!! *Light goes off* HOLY SH!T WTF OMG

[UndeadxGothic]

@theegabisstranded My exact reaction as a child. xD

[RaTTlEHeaDz95]

favorite level :P

[TByrdartboy]

I wonder if this is the level that caused YouAllSuck5000 to hate dogs.....

[YouAllSuck5000]

@TByrdartboy read my profile.

[Transmorph667]

Gotta love them organ sounds!!

[jetiscute1]

The drumming on this level was amazing :)

[huetj39]

THIS LEVEL IS AMAZING

[ostemad111]

when i was 5 i was scared of this level like shit! now i just laugh my ass off at the memories

[jamesh95]

those dogs are scary when they're big but i feel better that i can go in the room and flame them and the turtles to me weren't that scary

[Afrozavodsk]

0:24 - 0:34 ftw

[ThatDelRioGuy]

2: 58 the riff that would go on to be in SOOOOOOOO many other Spyro levels

[NintendanGX]

1 person doesn't dare go into the first room of the level

[AnnoyingBird100]

When I was little, Stone Hill use to scare me, but this level never did. Weird.

[Harleyquinn191]

That stupid FUCKING TURTLE.

[ChippyMinton40]

Creepy dog teeth...

[mollyosaka]

@ChippyMinton40

it kind of reminds me of Grell's teeth on that anime "Black Butler"

[No1HayleyWilliamsFan]

I love the part where it does the title theme

[RockGirl515]

my favorite level !!!! and i'm a GIRL!!! ahhhh, A lot of memories back....

[Lemon498]

@RockGirl515 I dont see what you being a girl has to do with anything

[tomasfourhorns]

@Lemon498 Yeah, I'm a girl and I kicked this game's ass over and over again. The most fun ever, man! Best game music to date, too!

[ChaseYourDemise]

@RockGirl515 - What does being a girl have to do with anything at all?

[SoundsofRuneScape]

Best music in the game. Prog metal BABY!

[randomdude581]

GOD this level used to scare me to pieces when I was younger!

[jma282]

Anyone else notice how the music changes from soft to fierce, like the enemies did in the light on this level?

[CobaltMK]

@jma282

exactly,from soft to EPIC! :D

[jacobtylerwhitemusic]

I love those guitar chords in all the spyro songs.. I wonder what effect their using :D

[captainhero518]

Best Spyro 1 music. Twilight Harbor was a close second, but this one rocked.

[VeranzaTheKing]

Ah! C'mon. The last Spyro game was 2 years ago, I want him back. Ok Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, but SPYRO IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. I WANT SPYRO BACK!

[LoquenderoMix]

Awesone games:

Spyro The Dragon 1

Spyro 2

Spyro

Fatality games:

Spyro 4!!

[supermario3459]

@LoquenderoMix spyro 4 looks good (i never played it), the one who is crap is... SPYRO SKYLANDERS !

[ethanizabunny]

duuuuuudddddeeee i wish i could make my guitar sound like that! I gotta find whatever program Stewart Copeland used for this

[sarix6]

this level scared me shitless

[DzyNaa]

@sarix6 The music used to make me feel less scared <3

[VOLVIGAI]

Favourite Level! ^_^

[JonnyJinx04]

@HuntingLuigi no u

[Tw3pwn]

You just couldn't kill those cute little puppies when the lights were on, but when it turned dark and they transformed into a giant demon-like-dog, than you can forget about it being a cute little puppy and kill the damn thing.

[LidsAreFun]

This game rules because you can recognise the theme, feeling and meaning of the level just by the music. you can recognise each enemy and level just by listening to the music... it's great.

[gary2346]

Those dogshen the lantern went out scared the hell out of me when i was little....

[DJDVNO]

I can hear the sound of a dragon trapped in stone in my head when I listen to this xD

[9eigh]

the lamps in this level make the same noise as the lamps in "dark hollow" in the "artisans" world.

[richardplexx]

this is a bangin' tune =D and very nostalgic

[ShadowRaven85]

Spyro could kick marios"s butt any day.

[shpared]

@ShadowRaven85 and also crash's

[murloki11]

i remember the noises those things made, i was terrified of them babbleing. =p

[YellowLickilickyXL]

This is like heavy metal. It's very cool if you ask me.

[kelek1337]

This was so fucked up.. some dogs that get to some Hellhounds at dark, and a iron turtoise that is spitting some fireballs at you and devils with bow and arrow.. youre very fucked up insomaniac

[sunsetsoaked]

*thinks to self* hmmm.... dark passage? that sounds like fun!

Awww, look at that!

*gets eaten*

O MAH GAWD!!!!

*runs to the home portal as fast as I can, attaining about 70 jewels along the way*

[riptuous]

@sunsetsoaked I did the exact same thing :P

[NintendanGX]

i like turtles!

[y318]

Fuck Mario! That's just frustration and queery stuff.

This is FUN!

[NintendanGX]

@y318 screw u

[Nsanity96]

@y318 No it's not! Both Mario and Spyro are great!

[Comptonater]

That dog.....THAT DOG!!!!

[Nordiero66]

'awww what a cute little doggie' *lights go out* 'WHAT THE F...'

'awwww what a cute little turtle' *lights go out* 'WHAT THE F...'

Dark Passage FTW! :D

[Pocketwatch625]

@Nordiero66 TRUE, IT'S SO GODDAMN TRUE LOL XD

[mollyosaka]

@Nordiero66

-spyro flames the little doggie- Ebebebebe! -dies- haha

[Darkstar263]

This is probably my favourite bit of music in the Dream Weavers levels. Lofty Castle comes 2nd.

[sumlad1]

kickass guitar beat at 0:33

[TheSpriternumbertwo]

When I was watching a video for Dark Passage, when I saw the demon form of the fire turtle, I was like "Whoa turtle!" (That's exactly what I said!)

[Pooky1991]

My favorite track in the game!

[Lich137]

I love this zone <3

[GummyGummington]

Cute little dogs bury bones outside.

Demon dogs from Dark Passage bury skeletons!

[y318]

I prefer a 1000 times Spyro rather than Mario.

[charlespants19]

all spyro games after 3 are shit

[Eifler121]

@charlespants19 The one where you can control Hunter for a little bit is alright.

[shpared]

@charlespants19 I agree with you as well.

[Fragalligator]

Them horrible Devils things had the smugest grin ever...

[FFXGuitar]

Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger, can I take your order?

[AngelRasmus3]

This was the most AWESOME music. I used to go back and collect pearls and lifes because I loved the music so much!

[ShadowEeveeSilver]

it sounds like riptos theme in spyro 2 is a remix of this

[UltimaShadow7]

I remember walking up to those puppies not thinking much, but then they transformed into these Devil Dogs. I was like OH SH*T!

[usmcandrew16]

any of you guys want to know how to play this on your COMPUTER for free without the disc, look at my youtube channel. the vids say it all. i have a tutorial, anybody need help ask.

[01Highflyer]

why little dogs and turtles gotta blow up like that!!....especially in the dark. gotta catch those fairy guys before they blow out the lights.

[NintendanGX]

those dogs were right bastardos >_<

[plasticnapoleon22]

@NintendanGX nothing compared to the frogs in misty bog

[NintendanGX]

@plasticnapoleon22 exept those nerve racking trees! XD

[TheSpriternumbertwo]

@NintendanGX

"Tree, TREE!"

More Raggedstar.

[Kingofeurope]

If this level didn't scare you as a kid... where's your soul?

[MrRetroGamer96]

@Kingofeurope I was five years old playing this game, and this did NOT scare me. Felt way too cartoony, as I remember (it's been almost a decade). I was never scared easily, not even the chucky films (yeah- cool parents letting their kids see that shit at my age lol)

[Saam1994]

the beginning of this sounds like the music in the level Lost Fleet from Year Of The Dragon......just a bit............ :)

[1domochan]

I remember when i was little and played this level i was so afraid of the level XD Now looking back at it I wonder "why was i afraid of this?Oh yeah those little buggers."

[KatASala]

Dark Passage is one of my favorite worlds in Spyro. The dogs have to be my favorite villain of all time.

[jjaszczesny]

I would always stay away from this level when I was a kid, those red dogs...*shudder*

They still scare me a little.

[blaria95]

I totally hate those tiny little dogs in this portal that turn into those EVIL RED THINGS! GOSh THEY WERE SUCH A PAIN! V:( Those turtle things were too, but just not as bad.

[lordgeckolol229]

that level was pretty awsome but somehow those demon lookin turtle doesnt freak me out when i was little

[DrRobotniksPingas]

This is my favorite level in the entire first game. Why? The music, the awesome enemies, and the epic sky artwork.

Does anyone else besides me always admire the sky artwork? I love how the skies looked in the first three games. I could just look up at the sky in First Person forever.

[JacquelineNatla]

@DrRobotniksPingas

I know how you feel!!! I find myself looking up into the night skys of the first three Spyros too. I was thinking that just the other day when I was playing Ice Cavern again for the first time in a long time. I was like, gee... The 1998 stars are so much more beautiful than the 2010 ones...

[Dajsciocco4]

@DrRobotniksPingas when I was younger I remember that sometimes I stared at the real sky and told myself "hey, it looks like one from the spyro levels!" I always loved the skys in it too, they're simply awesome :)

[Ashyneko]

@DrRobotniksPingas rofl im glad it wasnt only me, I loved all the levels skys, especially like, haunted towers, cliff town, lofty... such good art

[DJDVNO]

@DrRobotniksPingas OMG I know what you mean!! I loved the ambient kinda psychedelic sky they had in the first three games especially in the worlds like Magic Crafters and Dream Weavers. I hated the games after the first three coz Stewart Copeland didn't make the music for them anymore and they deviated from the original story line so much that it didn't make any sense but, The first three were my childhood so I can deal :) Thanks for pointing out such an awesome point like that :)

[bombshell333]

@DrRobotniksPingas

I totally agree with you, i loved the scenery, the atmosphere and the music! But for me, my favourite level on scenery and atmosphere and music HAS to be tree tops :)

[MajickDemoniack]

@DrRobotniksPingas I loved how they put, like, six moons or distant planets and galaxies in the skies. THAT was cool.

[DantesX29]

@DrRobotniksPingas holy crap, I thought I was the only one lol. I loved the skies.

[mollyosaka]

@DantesX29

I loved the skies too n____n

[pyurmassacur]

@DrRobotniksPingas I know exactly what you mean man. This and tree tops had the most eerie skies.

[22luxord]

So many memories.

[BrownieParadox]

I freaked out so bad when I saw those dogs for the first time....I mean, I didn't expect them to...You know...EXPAND INTO HORRIFIC MONSTERS! Well, they were still dogs I guess. (If you even want to call them that). They took up the whole screen with their massive jaws and literally made me drop the controller! DX The turtles weren't so bad though.

[YouTedious]

Hey, wasn't this the demonic level? Freaked me out when i was a kid, i was seriously scared

[TomBombadil37]

I know, right? Those tunnels with the giant dogs and the bloke with the lantern were always the parts I hated to go through.

[thesmashbrosfans]

for me, this was one of the only levels, that you couldn't navigate through. I mean, it was like a maze!

[PunchAPeach]

This song was just as amazing as the sky in this level. So many times i'd just stop and stare at that ribbon of clouds as the song picks up.

[Shaslo]

GIANT TURTLES OF EVIL LIVE HERE!!!

[chimera94]

AND EVIL RED DOGS OF DOOM!!

[vfgjhj]

Spyro the Dragon is what a Video Game is supposed to be, fun.

[Aquiosis]

@vfgjhj kids these days aren't getting the fun games their supposed to have all they got are fucking FPS even TV sucks for kids now. If you look at the 90's games+TV/Cartoons you can't complain about it cause it was AWESOME

[bombshell333]

@Aquiosis

Well said, the 90's was awesome!

[JonnyJinx04]

@Aquiosis "all they got are fucking FPS"? What about all the platformers that have come out in recent years? NSMBW, Galaxy 1+2, DKCR, Braid, Super Meat Boy, Kirby's Epic Yarn, etc. Sure FPS games are the big thing at the moment, but that doesn't mean these types of games have gone away.

[Aquiosis]

@JonnyJinx04 I'm not saying they are gone just that there aren't as many good ones as there used to be in the 90's

[JonnyJinx04]

@Aquiosis You may be right. Not all FPS games are bad though, some of them can be quite enjoyable. Its just a shame Spyro has gone so downhill since 2000 or so... it doesn't seem like he'll be able to ever make a comeback at this point.

[ps3master19]

@Aquiosis i totally agree. CoD and Halo are extremely milked series.

[UntitledKirk]

@vfgjhj yeah not a game where you die all the time cuz someone noob tubes you. lol.

[TheHorrorchicken]

@vfgjhj Exactly! Nowadays video games are too competitive and serious, whereas they should be like Spyro 1, running around in beautiful stages doing simple tasks, collecting gems and enjoying the music!

Spyro > Every other game ever produced.

[IamTheMisuKitty]

I luv this level :)

[nitzernoo]

0:42 - 0:50, part of the Main Theme. I think there's a bit in every song.

[Gothicpc1]

I remember that. Evil dog thinks I'm a dinner. He ate my Spyro! You monster! I'll kill you when you hurt Spyro.

[P2K725]

Lateef was indeed right. Inside of the game and ojutside of the game.

[SuperMetalSonic360]

This music is awesome! And so is the level! I have now mastered the art of the dogs when they're giant.

I don't mean to brag though, I'm sure anyone could do it :)

[Darxae]

This is my favourite level!!!! It was funny (for me) complete it with all gems and dragons!

[P2K725]

Very dark song.

[BrownieParadox]

Ohh....I hated getting eaten by those huge dogs.....It made me flinch every time. D=

[ToxicTurquoise454]

I remember when I first went into the level, I was eating dinner at the time, and the big dogs went after me. I was so scared (I was only five) that I fell face first into my dinner lol! I had a friend round at the time and man, how he laughed at me... it was my fault, I shouldn't have played while having dinner, I just LOVED the game and couldn't put it down.

[Ratchet132010]

BEST SPYRO SONG EVER!!!

[AngelRasmus3]

omg at pooky, dilcofilms and crashandspyropro! Dream Weavers music is my favourite, Dark Passage is my favourite level and Lateef is my favourite dragon! LOL

[Notty92]

Another level that skared me. Cuz when those lights went out...

[LegendSilverMew]

when the dogs were little i love how they attempted to bite me and then i charged into them and laught. lol

[SuperLuigiBros]

I would always play around with the dogs, like at the part after you save the first adult dragon, they have a red cupid guy in between 2 dogs near a light post so the dogs won't grow, in front of some stairs...

everytime they tried to bite me I'd jump over them and they'd follow.. lol This is one of my favorite levels because of the music and level design..

[Pooky1991]

My favorite level!

[dilcofilms]

dream weavers has the best music

[shpared]

@dilcofilms and magic crafters as well :)

[SuperMetalSonic360]

It's cuz he's a fool!...fool!

(fool as in idiot btw. I just killed my own joke didn't I? XD)

[Rabbishlover]

I love this level! The turtle and dog look so innocent in the light! I wonder why the guy with the lamp blew out the light and lit it up again so many times... I used to think it blew out by accident...

[imoncrack22]

beating the fools were annoying because they kept running

[nessamorgoth]

This song in the beggining is scary but the atmosphere of fantasy wins and is funny. The song of this level tries to say the absurd but enterteining is this world

[amc6290]

I hate the 'Thank you for releasing me' dragons lol, this level had two,

love this song though

[punchbuggy1970]

its like in Jacques, I glide over the never ending sky/space thing and lose 10 lives out of 86 and than the guy says "Thank u for releasing me" i was like >:( and also this is hilarious "Thor" The strong one, releases and says ThAnK yOu FoR rElEaSiNg Me!1!! and hes like 1494, HOW LONG WAS HE IN THERE!!!

[shpared]

@amc6290 they say that because they have no more info to talk about as in like controls, enemies, etc.

[InsomDog]

Man, I love the part from 0:34 - 0:43. It's so epic

[Ratchet132010]

of course it is. when im at the end of the level next to the portal to go home i always wait til that part of the song comes up so i can jump off while charging to my death

[spectrevampire]

I love the sound the dogs made when you charged into them. I never understood the turtles, though.

[SteelWool91]

only thing i understood about the turtles was that I friggin hated them when they got big

[Primus1101]

probably sound retarded, but do all the songs have part of the main theme in them? or am i hearing things?

[DtFaN93]

i dont know if all the songs have "the" main theme, but def. most of them contain similar motifs, and riffs. its not a retarded question at all

[ToxicTurquoise454]

Only few songs actually have similar things, don't worry. I mean, if you listen to Blowhard it sounds nothing like Stone Hill or whatever.

[THEMAGNIFICENTSHOE]

I was so scared of those shadow... things

[thedudeagainsttheQQ]

i loved flaming the fools in dark passage :D when they turned into light lamps i laughed my ass off ^^ good ol' times, i was 6 years old!! :DD

[MCSuire]

I love this level, yet I hate this level. Does that make sense?

[MCSuire]

I miss this game so much.

[shalaleah]

Just started and completed this game again a few days ago, much fun =)

Sadly I get the feeling for that fact I won't be playing it again, now this is the 5th time I've done it =|

You know?

I'll always keep my spyro though <3

[Erdnax13]

First time I played this level, when the dogs turned evil and ate me, I literally threw the controller in the air and screamed as loud (and girly) as I could.

[Thelordofall2]

@Erdnax13 i know :( xD

[GunmasterLombardi]

I gotta download this game to my PSP!

I loved it when I was younger.

[SuperLuigiBros]

The enemies in this game were all crazy looking, wonder how the developers got the ideas in creating them all

[peppercat1515]

the developers are insomniac games, and just look at them now; they have always been very creative with their games

[fromblammo]

@SuperLuigiBros ...pot?

[n0rmalt0Day]

Those cupids get anoying when they start hitting you

[KOOZAtrickster]

where can u download this?

[turbopappa]

what the hell is that in 1.30-1.33

[spyergirl4]

some climatic effect to make it sound awesome

[MobiusRules]

The dogs & turtles always used to make jump everytime they changed when the lights went out.

[fafi900]

"You must expect the unexpected and prepare for what is not there."

[AngelRasmus3]

That's what my favourite dragon comment.

[CrashandSpyropro3]

Lateef was smart when he said that.

[crash22spyro]

@fafi900

best quote ever....

[Pokeninjaxd]

damn fire spitting turtles lol
