No, I'm not taking a shot at Spyro 1 itself (though it is my least favourite of the original trilogy). However, the Japanese version (NTSC-J) is...awful. It's not a simple dub of the text and audio. I outlined a few of them in my blog entry (here). I honestly can't play this version more than 30 minutes or so because it's just so frustrating and nauseating for the camera to get stuck all the time and me having to rotate it. At least the camera in the normal version is functional.
I had this project file sitting on my hard drive since November 2009, so I quickly did some commentary today. I have no more ideas for fail reels, so that's it for now. I was planning a KH Sephiroth fail reel, but it was too depressing and repetitive. FF7 Sephy is too difficult to record since if you die, the game resets and you have to go back to the last save point...which is before a Jenova fight and Bizzaro Sephiroth. You have to beat them before you can fight Safer Sephiroth.
I also disabled annotations because people complained and I can't moderate all the time.
-I started recording at Peacekeepers because I wasn't intending to create a fail reel at all. All you missed was my epic death in the homeworld because the camera wouldn't turn around towards shore.
-Spyro 2's subtitle was named "Tondemo Tours". It suffers from many of the same faults that this game does
-Spyro 3 never went to Japan, yet Enter The Dragonfly did.
-Glitch learned from yearofthe's video outlining how to get that key without chasing the first airplane thief.
