Go To

1* ActingForTwo:
2** Creator/TomKenny voices Spyro, Sgt. Byrd, and the Professor.
3** Richard Tatum voices Agent 9, Bartholomew, and the Mountain Goats.
4** Carolyn Lawrence voices Zoe, Elora, and the Seals.
5** Creator/NeilRoss voices both Moneybags and Bentley. Which makes the scene between them also a case of "beat the crap out of yourself with a giant club".
6** Pamela Hayden voices Bianca in addition to some background characters.
7* BadExportForYou: A rare case where it was within the same country no less. The copy of the game featured on Platform/PlayStationNetwork was the original "[[ObviousBeta black label]]" version with all the glitches and music errors included. Made even more baffling since said errors were fixed for the "Greatest Hits" and "Collector’s Edition", both also on [=PS1=], leading many fans to wonder why Sony used an inferior copy to begin with.
8* ChristmasRushed: It was rushed out to meet its 2000 goal. As a result, the original version of the game is somewhat incomplete and glitchy.
9* DummiedOut: Multiple unfinished or abandoned levels can be accessed via glitching, as their respective portals were simply moved out of bounds.
10* FakeAustralian: Sheila is voiced by English actress Edita Brychta donning an Australian accent.
11* FakeBrit: Sgt. James Byrd is voiced by American voice actor Tom Kenny doing a British accent.
12* MeaningfulReleaseDate: This game was released in the year 2000, the actual Year of the Dragon.
13* NoExportForYou:
14** Unlike the first two games, this game never got a Japanese release [[LateExportForYou until the release of]] ''VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy'' there.
15** Also worth noting is that PAL regions didn't get the additions in the US Greatest Hits release, even after the game got the Platinum treatment (basically the PAL equivalent of the Greatest Hits label). It wasn't until [[VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy the remake]] that this content finally made its way to PAL regions.
16* TheOtherDarrin: Neil Ross replaces Milton James as Moneybags and Carolyn Lawrence replaces Creator/MelissaDisney and Mary Linda Phillips as Elora and Zoe respectively.
17* ThrowItIn: Spyro reclaiming his gems from Moneybags by [[spoiler:beating him up until he's coughed up every last gem you've given to him over the course of the game]] was put in solely because he was so reviled by the playtesters of the game.
