Originally Recorded/Aired on Friday, August 18th, 2023
Edwak and Nickie are back on #SuperOldGameSaturday this week to debut a massive PlayStation-era 3D collect-a-thon platforming name on our show and to celebrate his soon to be 25th anniversary. It's Spyro the Dragon, which originally came to us on the PlayStation from Insomniac Games in 1998, but for this play of the one that started it all for the incredibly handsome purple dragon, we're using its remake in the Spyro Reignited Trilogy for Nintendo Switch. For this unique play, both Edwak and Nickie played this game for us in not too far over record time, as we took Spyro across the land to save the dragons from the evil Gnasty Gnorc as I admired my first look at the completion of this game and as "the best chat on Twitch" watched on and gave their insights alongside ours about this franchise, this remake, the 3d collect-a-thon platforming genre, 90s video game marketing, insights about the voice performers, the art of this game, the interesting stories about the music and much more, including a few glitches that, from what I could find, we may have recorded the only documented cases of anywhere on the internet (complete with some extra edits to indicate that and that were a lot of fun to add in). Also, because Nickie and Edwak finished this game in one part and I delineated two parts just to be sure, they will be on the show again pretty soon on September 8th for more of their dynamic and Nickie's next choice of games to show off. We all had a great time on this show and I once again thank Edwak, Nickie and all of you in the chat for making our first look at Spyro a great one. So, sit back, relax and hope you enjoy our 100% run of the Spyro the Dragon remake (and if you like what you see here, stop by https://www.twitch.tv/captainditrag, where you can join our shows and conversations on what we play each week live, as well as see the planned time of our next stream, which is this Saturday at 3 PM EST)!
