* [[Colour-Coded for Your Convenience]]: ''Sort'' of in ''A New Beginning''. Cynder is the only black dragon in the game, so naturally, she's the villain, right? Well, sort of. She was actually [[The Dragon]] (no pun intended), controlled by the REAL [[Big Bad]] and only happens to be a black colored dragon. At the end of the game, she becomes an ally and more of an example of [[Dark Is Not Evil]] for the rest of the series.

* [[Conservation of Competence]]: In all three games, the [[Big Bad]] is much smarter and more cunning than their minions. Dark Cynder and Gaul are both ''far'' more competent than the Apes and Malefor is a skillful [[Chessmaster]] leading an army of magically created monsters with no real competence.

* [[Darker and Edgier]]: Compared to Spyro games that have come before. The first game of this trilogy begins with the Dragon Realms already in the middle of a long war, where Spyro and Cynder's entire generation were slaughtered ''as eggs''. {{spoiler|Ignitus '''''burns to death'''''! Yes, he died off screen, but still}}. Malefor alone is much darker than most of the Classic villains and is an [[Omnicidal Maniac]] trying to destroy the world.

* [[Real Is Brown]]: The [[PlayStation 3]]/Xbox360 versions of ''Dawn of the Dragon'' have heavily abused the 'bloom' effect, as noted in [http://gangles.ca/2008/07/18/bloom-disasters/ this article].

* [[Recurring Riff]]: Parts of the melody of "Guide You Home" (from the credits of ''Dawn of the Dragon'') can be heard in the background music throughout the game.
