Can you handle the heat..?

Hind Site: Pitching Again

Let's turn back the clock 11 days, 6 months, and 10 years. Where would we be? The day the first Spyro game was released. On that day a media convention was held at which Sony's marketing head Andrew House explained how Spyro would be a lucrative franchise and how it was marketable. Why does this matter? Well, if what Variety claimed is true, (see the post below), something along these lines will have to happen again due to the Vivendi/Activision merger. The benefits of Spyro will be brought back to the table and discussed in order to decide whether to keep him alive or sign off his death.

Not all games are lucky enough to last forever.

Read how Spyro was promoted back then.

Damn, Neal! This is why I love this freaking place!!! Your on top of E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G!!!!!

Anyway, this whole thing is hitting me like a ton of bricks. I really hope that after the movie on '09, the franchise is still alive. I know that after the reboot, Spyro wasn't as popular as it was before, but it still has A HELL OF A LOT of fans who love the series.....I just hope thats enough to keep the series strong enough....

Well to be frank, the series actually lost a lot of popularity after Enter the Dragonfly came out. I would actually pin most faiths on the series being lost after A Hero's Tail came out; that might have possibly been one of few post-Insomniac titles that didn't have a lot going to garner any kind of fresh fanbase (which seems to be what the Legend arc ended up doing).

Don't panic yet! Spyro will still live!
