Except for not remembering what time the skill point was (not that it matters, but anyways, it’s 1:15), no problems in the speedway for once. No random spazzy noises from me or interuptions from Windows Update here.
Only one more Autumn Plains level to go, and that’s Shady Oasis. I don’t know if I’m going to zip through it or not like with Fracture Hills, since all that needs to be done there is a really fast orb challenge and a headbash chest in backtracking (not to mention the fact that Shady Oasis is a million times easier. No monster plants, supercharges, or eathshapers there).
In this video: -Fracture Hills talisman -All gems in Metro Speedway -Skill point (1:09.40) -Orb in Metro Speedway (helping THE Hunter with the cat burglars)
Between Possk and I playing these games, she takes great pride in causing poor Spyro pain (see Part 1 of Crystal Glacier and Glimmer and Spyro 1 or 2 fail reels). SHADOWSMIFFDEMON MUST BE STOPPED!
No laughing at my lack of math skills. This isn’t the first time I’ve mixed up numbers.
Yes, I’m convinced that Fracture Hills was designed to include everything that could piss the average Spyro gamer off. Here are some points (some not discussed in the video). -Large enemies that can’t be destroyed with Spyro’s own power (flame, charge, rock, headbash without Hunter) -LAVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! -Music that doesn’t sound so fitting (well, I think that at least) -Deadly plants that usually don’t look threatening until they attack *glares at bush/tree/whatever* -Need to use supercharge for almost everything -Bodyguard challenge (not bad in games unless you’re protecting the unlogical Mr. Alchemist) -Valley-girl fauns *strangles* -Often difficult supercharge track that you need to use in 3 instances (skill point, gem chest, orb) (yes, the supercharge is mentioned twice)
The only thing missing here is a cliff, a skate/snowboard, or respawning ninjas.
In this video: -Me going blahblahblah -VERY few gems in Fracture Hills
Raggedstar loves her George-kitty as you can see *cough*. (damn, no George thumbnails? Weak…)
Wow, this level went by really fast. Not counting the parts in the video where I stood around or died, I think I did this level in roughly 14-15 minutes (the entire recording was about 16:30). I know it’s easy, but I’ve never done any level 100% that fast. Oh well.
In this video: -Both orbs in Crystal Glacier (finding ubercuteGeorge and cleaning out the draclets) -All gems in Crystal Glacier
Yep, not much to this level. At least it’s a nice easy break before I head into Fracture Hills (even though I won’t be sticking around for long).
Just sending another reminder to Possk that you can swim in Spyro 2. I get too much amusement making fun of her lol (but I love my Possk anyways *hugs*).
Ugh, and this is my last day of winter break. Back to horrible college tomorrow.
In this video: -Breeze Harbor Talisman -Last orb (trolley challenge) -All gems in Breeze Harbor -More Possk failure
For those that didn’t read the comments, I have a correction to the contest. LittleKitsune DID technically get it right in regards to thinking first death will be in the Skelos Badlands, but ButterflyIllusioned had the better answer since it was the only level she said (LittleKitsune said Skelos Badlands and Magma Cone).
In this video: -Whining about Eternal Night -Most gems in Breeze Harbor -One orb (destroy the mines)

PS: I’ve been asked a few times on my opinions of TLOS series. Seeing as since I got my PS2 (I’m sorry, but there are hardly any PS3 games I’m interested in. My tv doesn’t support HD anyways), I’ve played a few games, including the first 2 TLOS games. I will give more detail when needed, but I more or less summarized my my major gripes with the second game, Eternal Night. A New Beginning was easy while Eternal Night was too hard for it’s own good. Being more difficult than ANB isn’t a bad thing, but when you consider how awkward the platforming/jumping is, the repetitive/long battles, and poor lighting, the game really dishes a lot of cheap shots. In the grove (before the ice dream. It’s somewhat of a “second level”), I timed myself only taking 10 seconds to be killed because of how overpowered the enemies are sometimes (had to burn a fury just to get through). There are good things about the game, but the things I mentioned just suck the fun out most of the time. I can give more detailed opinions if asked, but I haven’t played a lot of Dawn Of The Dragon (only finished the first level). First two are fine.
Ya, he’s the reason why the lombax race went poof.
Finally done this nameless level. IT DID NOT HAPPEN!
*cough* So, voting is open for the next levels. There is currently 1 vote for Fracture Hills. Since I will only be spending a minute or two in there, I’ll combine it with Metro Speedway.
In this video: -All gems in level -Last orb in the level(collecting bones) -Epic skeleton dance -Raggs picking mushrooms in her emo corner (brownie to those that get the reference as long as your name isn’t Possk or Skerz)
Oh wait, a glitch beat me to it. Yes, my first death is in true Raggedstar fashion: random, stupid, and full of fail.
Although the concept of this glitch isn’t NEW, this is the first time it happened to me (figures, now of all times). I know Exploit1080 had similar stuff happen to him in Fracture Hills during his Spyro 2 LP (hitting the satyr in a weird way and falling into the lava during the cutscene). Apparently similar situations happened to others. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82k-HA… Look at 4:04
I think ButterflyIllusioned said Skelos Badlands. I checked through my videos and I couldn’t see any more for this level. If I’m wrong, tell me roughly which video and I’ll correct myself next video.
In this video: -Most gems in Skelos Badlands -Bone collecting -Skelos Badlands talisman -2 skill points (flame the cacti and beating the catbat quartet) -WTFGLITCHDEATH!
Death Count: 1 (Skelos Badlands. DAMN YOU GLITCH!)
Uploading this sooner than planned because I’m not going to be around for a few days. It wouldn’t make sense if I uploaded it when I came back. After that, I will satisfy you poor, demented souls and do the Skelos Badlands 0__0.
Contests are still open. Here is a complete list…I think. -When is first death? -How many videos? (should be a good start for guesses seeing as we’re halfway through the game) -How many deaths? -How many lives remaining? (at the end of all boss battles, skill points, etc) -How many attempts at the Fracture Hills supercharge to get 100% and skill point? (will be done during backtracking)
I think that’s it. Suggestions for other contests are open.
In this video: -Scorch talisman -last Scorch orb (getting the flags) -ALL Scorch gems (well, could’ve been worse)
