10 Terrible Video Games That Could Be Fixed With One Simple Change

5. Reduce The Loading Times - Spyro: Enter The Dragonfly

The much-anticipated fourth major Spyro game, Enter the Dragonfly, likely never had what it takes to be a great game, but it could've been a moderately enjoyable one were a single infuriating technical issue fixed.

Yes, Enter the Dragonfly is rather on the short side and has an outrageous number of bugs, but the one thing that makes it genuinely a chore to play? The damn loading times.

The PS2 version of the game - aka the version most fans played - touted load times of anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute, grinding any potential fun to a halt in the process.

Again, this wouldn't suddenly become a platformer classic if you halved the loading screens, but it would feel like a more cohesive experience with actual momentum, rather than a constantly stilted bore.

For anyone who loved the brilliant trilogy, it was sad to see, and because of the game's un-popularity, it's unlikely to ever get the game-fixing remaster treatment its predecessors enjoyed.
