Spyro: Year of the Dragon -- Part 11: Icy Peak

[@jakobthonen9411]

Love the music in this level. Definitely in the top 5 from this game.

[@kierancampire]

IT SOUNDED LIKE HE GOT FLUSTERED AND IT WAS SO CUTE! :3 "You're really good at aiming that cannon, it usually takes me a lot longer to do it!" "I'm not that good at it, i gvauh ah...." SO ADORABLE! :')

[@Tomsonic41]

Oh, I remember the ballerina part. It's actually slightly confusing on PAL versions, as the ballerina's routine runs slightly slower than the music - so the audience starts cheering when there's still one more hockey player to take care of!

[@crystelthewolf]

Omg, i used to LOVE the ice race track where you chase the thieves, even after i caught them both i would run on it for hours on end. Ah, childhood :)

[@billyrium]

I used to be so good at this level as a kid (because this was the only level you could play in the demo discs I received in the mail)! Happy to see it being played because I forgot what game this was in.

Discovered a trick to get both thieves on "Icy Peak" for those having a hard time getting these guys. Go to the opening in the mountain that contains orbs and a small tunnel leading to the whirlwind that takes you up. Proceed to the second whirlwind that will float you to the final orbs of the level. From here you can see the area to land on for your skill point but the thieves are also in sight. Just float down and land near the thief and hit your fire breath at the same time. I got both of them this way before they could even start running and spared my sanity. Of course, this means you have to go up the whirlwinds three time to get both thieves and the skill point but is worth it if your sanity is in jeopardy.

[@MissMaryanne1]

My dad taught me this exact same trick :)

[@JellothePallascat]

Oh Bob and Doug. These guys where based off a SCTV sketch about some Canadian Brothers on a Canadian TV show starring John Candy and Eugene Levy among others en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_and_Doug_McKenzie

[@jane1975]

I always like snowy ice levels, not the physics though but love the way games animate snow and ice and water too.

[@VacivityLove]

man how i remember playing level demo as a kid. loved it

[@dapperfan44]

10:53 man that ending when you get to finally get your revenge is so satisfying.

[@moatguy]

Yeah getting revenge on Moneybags was good in both games which is why even though he was a dill I loved paying him the gems just because I would get them all back. In the second it was great in the end to see Hunter sit on him so you could get the gems back and in this one charge and flame him and see all the gems fly out so you could get them back. :D

[@Matt_0716]

Glad you're finally doing the third game. I was beginning to worry you wouldn't.

[@adjam1991]

The challenge where you have to chase the thieves is one of my favourite parts of the game.

[@dragonarcher89]

I loved the hockey part, it always makes me laugh XD Don'n get me started with that tree top level. -.-

[@Chelsgirl31]

That's probably my favorite cut scene from the entire game lol

[@TopHattedIceMan]

Finally, I get Google+ to let me make a freaking comment. I was going to tell you this yesterday, but Google+ lately has prevented me from commenting on anything, or liking comments. Its so weird. Anyway, Kinda like the story I told you about Spyro demo from Pizza Hut on the Spyro 2 playthrough, I learned about the third installment via demo, but it wasn't from a handout playable demo from Pizza Hut, but rather a weird promotion that Sears did back when they actually sold consoles. They were doing a promotion for a large screen TV, PS1, and a copy of Spyro 3 that was redeemable when it was released, and they were letting customers play a demo level for the game to help interest them. And the only level on the demo was Icy Peak. I got so excited for the third game, but I didn't get to really enjoy the demo since my parents were Christmas shopping and were only in Sears for just one thing. Anyway, so that's my little story. Great video John.

[@Sprink768]

Am I the only one who flies over and flames the red one first while its still on the pedestal?

[@9Flatline]

I was wondering why the didn't do that.

[@LPCruz212]

Mckell Harrop i used to do that when i was young, that red thief was very hard to catch. I don't remember how many times i went around the track.

[@guy3648]

Mckell Harrop Nope

[@ballenaasecina]

I do that too. Actually I think that is why you get a skill point when you land there.

[@JackieO1992]

I do the same thing. If you go the back way and fly over to where the whirly thing is you can flame the red one first. Then do the same thing for the yellow and you don’t have to run around that damn track lol

[@jack-z2121]

You both have a really great voice. Thanks for your help

[@JediMasterRevenantMADNESS]

I got the red one before the yellow one. I flamed him mid flight and it landed me on the track with the egg.

[@YIN33]

Having to redo the swamp area because of recording issues....that sucks....that place 2 of the most irritating eggs in the entire game

[@octaneblue]

I'm wondering which ones you're referring to... maybe you can point them out in the Spooky Swamp upload, lol.

[@YIN33]

Oh I'll mention them when you get there

[@mollymoonfan5939]

escort eggs, damn they were hard

[@madisondiconti6739]

those birds kind of look like Toothless from how to train your dragon in the end flying backwards!

[@matthewscott10]

Bob and Doug McKenzie reference YES

[@StFidjnr]

23:45 hey doug what are you doing here

[@3HUNNAAA]

Im just here for nostalgia

[@StFidjnr]

@ 12:40 are you crazy Nancy

[@Shadikenn]

What capture card are you using for this video now?

[@interstateruler]

I would get the red thief first and then the yellow

[@GoranDubravic]

God those thief’s are so damn fast and I freakin hate those guys b/c they say na na you cant catch me

[@CarlaHerreralife]

For some reason I cannot get to the underwater area on this level. Once I'm on the ice even directly above the crack I cannot jump up. I'm using the original version. Any suggestions?

[@kelseydavis2654]

I have the same issue too

[@CarlaHerreralife]

+Kelsey Davis I also tried jumping from the little alcove above the area and it still doesn't break. Not sure what's going on with that.

[@kelseydavis2654]

+Carla Herrera I figured it out, it's in the video. Glide from the other side of the peak and head butt it from above the crack

[@kelseydavis2654]

+Carla Herrera it shows it around the 5 minute mark

[@CarlaHerreralife]

+Kelsey Davis I'll try it.

[@thatfreshkidlee]

so were you guys still gonna do enter the dragon fly

[@octaneblue]

+SpirituaLee Sure, eventually. Not anytime soon, though.

[@interstateruler]

what happens if you say no to moneybags?

[@StFidjnr]

moneybags will say "What? You don't want to pay? What are you saving your money for, another sequel?"

[@Leon--Kennedy]

+StFidjnr Spyro did get another sequel after this game. And it was shit.

[@madisondiconti6739]

i have been holding my squishy Spyro from Skylanders thayt i got for my 9th b-day
