I have rediscovered my love of the original Spyro trilogy (Spyro The Dragon, Ripo's Rage, Year Of The Dragon). Yep, Raggedstar is a closet Spyro fan. A few months ago, I started playing them. Since then, I have played each game 3 times (YOTD is at 2) with each at max completion. I can actually complete Ripto's Rage in an afternoon as well as beat all bosses without superflame (except Ripto. EDIT: Nevermind, I've beaten Ripto recently without superflame 3 times). Enough about how I'm supposedly good at the game. This video features some of my...less proud periods of playing. All footage was recorded in May (my 2nd time beating it this year, so I'm a little rusty). Although it may not seem like it, I really didn't die a lot outside of boss battles.
Since I recorded myself playing the first two games (not sure if I'm going to do the 3rd. Some of the challenges in there take me hours to do), I might do a fail reel of the first as well. More importantly, I'll be making a music video (hopefully) to a certain DragonForce song *cough*. Elements seen in DF are really suited to video games it seems.
Some things to note:
-No fails in Idol Springs and what remains of my Robotica Farms stuff. I only got hit by a guy with a hot dog on a stick. That's it.
-Some of my clips were deleted somehow. That includes my first try with Aquaria Towers, Crush, and Robotica Farms.
-Glimmer and Autumn Plains recorded without audio x_x.
-To non-Spyro fans for some reason watching, the dragonfly (Sparx) collects my gems and is my health meter. It goes gold, blue, green, gone, Spyro death.
-Some of my dialogue has been shifted. Forgot to turn the ripple off.
-No Speedway fails shown. Every Speedway I fail at anyways (other than Icy. I can screw up and STILL get a skill point there)
-It took 30 minutes for me to find that damn lizard in Glimmer x_x.
-Despite being blown to kingdom come (repeatedly), I never lost a life in Zephyr. Same goes for Magma Cone.
-About the end, I STILL don't know what happened when I faced Ripto. We were both at near death, but we hit each other. Even though Ripto was hit first, the battle was reset.
-Ice Cavern (Spyro 1) is where I lost my first life in the game...thanks to Shado *glare*.

This is my favorite game, but i never got to finish it because after i defeated Gulp, and on the screen where it says :You've defeated Gulp!" the game froze on me! I think it was the fact that the game disk was very scratched up. I don't have the game anymore, or the ps1. So if i wanted to play this game again, i would have to install an emulator, right? Would i use the keyboard as a controller, or would i have to get a controller? If so, what type of controller would i have to get?

You don't NEED a controller, but you can. I'm using a keyboard in these videos, and it works pretty well for a game like Spyro. If you want to use a controller, you'll either have to use a computer compatible one or an adapter for your own console controller.

@Raggedstar Ok. Thanks! By the way, I was just wondering... could you do a fail reel for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone? I think that would be a super hilarious fail reel that a lot of people would enjoy! If you don't do it... then that's okay too.

I don't have that game and the only time I've played it was when I was doing it for a younger cousin ages ago. Never been much of a Harry Potter fan, so I found the game kind of boring. Sorry.
I DO have some footage and commentary saved up with my friend Possk and I playing Brawl, Won't be a fail reel exactly, but seeing as neither of us are particularly good we do tend to fail a lot.
