Spyro 3 fail

I've been playing Spyro 3, Year of the Dragon, all this week. I don't know why, but I like the Spyro games. What other game can you play as a dragon (even if he is purple)?



I beat Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage with 100% completion the week before. Got all orbs and all gems. So, I was planning to beat Spyro 3 with 100% completion too.

I was doing pretty good with this goal. And then I hit a wall.

The Country Speedway. I've always hated the speedway levels. You have to hit or go through all the goals within the time limit to beat it. 4 kinds of goals and 8 of each kind = 32 things total. After a few runs you memorize the course until you win. Spyro 3 added a racing minigame quest, too.

In this speedway you race some biplanes flown by pigs. When pigs fly.. ah whatever.

Anyway, apparently there's a bug in the game. If you leave the speedway without winning the racing minigame, you can never win it. Even when you've won. And, of course, I had left the speedway after finishing the 1st minigame in there.

I'm serious. I won that race twice before looking up an FAQ to find out why it didn't reward me.

So my goal of 100% got shot down. I was so ... angry ... I quit entirely.

Mehhhhhh. Wild ARMs 4 will cheer me up.
