Nintendojo: Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon Review

Confused parents looking for a game to put under the tree next to that new DS could do worse than Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon. It's an all-around solid, if not particularly exciting, handheld experience that stands above the mountains of shovelware piled onto DS month after month. Dawn of the Dragon may be lacking the polish and spark of big name DS titles, but it's a solid time-waster. Now that there is a good foundation to build from, perhaps Activision can work on bringing some life to Spyro's next outing.
