It all starter with Spyro the Dragon for the Playstation. It's now been going for a decade with eight games under the belt across numerous consoles.

This blogger took the time to type up an in-depth and well structured article about how a game can get to such a status that everyone knows it and will for generations to come offering you the history of Spyro the Dragon along with an interview and their final comments.

Do you agree that Spyro the Dragon deserves such a title? What other games are also "stuff of legend"?

    Spyro is indeed a legend. He is one of the best characters. Ever. I'd consider him or Crash PS1's mascot.

    I've always loved Spyro, but can only say the originals were good, the ones made by Insomniac. After that Spyro went downhill

    But Spyro was one of the first PS1 games I had, and I would play those games all the time!

    The Spyro series is a great series indeed for me, and by that I mean the 1st 3 games of the series, for me those games were legendary. Spyro 1 was actually my first ps1 game.

    Insomniac made that series great. I play them all on my PSP even today (love number 2!).

    Vivendi or whatever shameful entity that took it over, shat all over the series.

    Modded PSP.

    I can play PS1,N64,GBA,NES,SNES,SCUMMVM,Downloaded PSP and all the other older platforms.

    No emulator needed. a PSP runs on almost the same structure as a PS1. Just putting PS1 games into the game folder, and they work as long as you have a modded PSP.
