The game also throws in new and unnecessary gameplay elements while failing to offer anything truly refined. Spyro and his game have reached an awkward adolescence, and the resulting identity crisis is both frustrating to participate in and awkward to witness.

They gave it a 5 out of 10. Not great but still better than what IGN gave it. Sounds like they harped on all the same issues as all the other reviewers - felt too hard for what it was, wasn't adult or kiddish but in an uncomfortable medium, didn't give much update to what A New Beginning was.

I've been holding off on reviews lately but I know many people looked forward to what GameSpot would have to say for TEN so I decided to post it.

Read it all for yourself.

Like IGN, the review for both the PS2 and Wii version are identical. IGN actually added a little to their Wii version of the review, but GameSpot did not. The PS2 and Wii reviews are word-for-word the same.

I'm gonna tell you, I hate GameSpot!

For a GameSpot review, it wasn't as harsh as what I was expecting. >.> But still, it's about bloody time.

I love Spyro the Dragon, the old series and the new....It's a shame that so many people dislike it. Thanks for the info, Neal.

Why did they bother making seprate reviews if they are the same?

Spyrojoe19: I so want to call you SOAD...but always glad to keep on top of Spyro news.

Gwenio: Probably so people (Spyro fans) wouldn't bombard them with emails like "why no TEN Wii review yet?!?" ... so they just put up the same review to be done with it. I'm disappointed neither GameSpot or IGN reviewed GBA TEN...I'm sure it would have merited high ranks from both.

Yeah, I feel disappointed with that as well. It's a shame that it just HAD to come out when the GBA is on its way out and all :(
