My younger brother just started playing Spyro 4...

...and he keeps thinking it freezes every time a level loads.

Do you smell that?... Thats the smell of yet another once good platformer being sold off to bad game developers.

My guess is that Insomniac and Naughty Dog just weren't making enough money off of their respective franchises and just sold them off to the highest bidder. A damn shame, but what can ya do - money's money.

Sony was just late to the party, so 3rd party developers got itchy trigger fingers. They got lazy and drunk off of their success last generation, like nintendo did in the early 90's.

He's been playing mostly PS1 games in his gaming history... We're on the right track.
