The 3D engine, for example, is a little weak, especially in comparison to Amaze's Crash of the Titans. But while the style of the PlayStation games was mimicked, it misses the target in a lot of areas. It was at least a breath of fresh air to see that the handheld game had broken out of its top-down design of the past two games. It's fully 3D, and features the same platforming focus of the classic Spyro the Dragon created by Insomniac.

Got it? This Spyro game at least gives off good first impressions because of its new approach to the Spyro game design on the handheld. He has to work through the game's action/platforming design to get them back so he can kick butt. But all you really need to know is this: Spyro is a little dragon who had big powers in the previous game, but loses them for this one. A portion of it's handled via voiceover played on top of scrolling artwork, but the rest utilizes confusing talking head dialogue that jumps all over the place. As cool as it is to get such a deep and poetic storyline as The Eternal Night, it's just so hard to follow the way it's told on the Nintendo DS. The Eternal Night uses the same plotline of the console game, which is a tale that picks up after the events of A New Beginning. For anyone who plays both games this year will see the striking contrast between the two projects: where Crash is a complete and coherent game, Spyro is a bit of a mess. Clearly to have both games in development the studio needed two completely separate teams to work on the projects. Just like Amaze's Nintendo DS version of Crash of the Titans, Spyro on the Nintendo has been taken back to its roots. Instead of offering a third game that compromises the 3D console design in a 2D presentation, the team instead went in a new direction, or rather, in its original direction: full 3D action platforming. Both of those Nintendo DS renditions, as well as the portable rendition of The Eternal Night have been handled by the same development studio: Amaze.

His premiere DS game, Spyro: Shadow Legacy was an awkward mess of a hybrid top-down action adventure that was rectified in the impressively decent 'reboot' of the series for the handheld: The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning.

The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night is the third Nintendo DS game starring the purple dragon.
