Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage Cheats

Orb on Secret Ledge in Summer Forest
To get that orb at that ledge you saw at the last pillar of Hunter's challenge, you need to go back at the portal leading to Glimmer and then dive in the pond. Follow the path, while collecting the treasure then go up the steps and get the orb.

Orbs in Autumn Plains
To get one orb, you need to find Elora and talk to her. She is supposed to say something about a whirlwind being activated by orbs. You should collect enough orbs to activate it. When it's activated, go up then glide to the ledge. Go all the way to the end wall then charge it to get one orb.

To get the other orb on the faraway ledge, climb the ladder near Moneybags then climb those two ladders that leads to the portal near Scorch. Go through to the tunnel and charge the cracked wall. Go up the whirlwind, collect the treasure then go up the next whirlwind. Make a very long glide to the ledge and finally get the orb!

Rescue the Faun
Pre-requisites:
1. You MUST know the headbash move.
2. You MUST have killed all of the earthshapers, some of them can be pushed into lava, the rest are taken care of by...
3. You must complete both of Hunter's tasks (Alchemist Escort & Earthshaper Bash).
4. You MUST have killed AT LEAST 14 enemies in this area.

In Authumn Plains/Fracture Hills talk to Spinner the Faun, she tells you about her friend in the locked room w/o a key. Just to her left there is a little gulley, drop down in there and you'll be on a path. Run down the path (Pressing the square button), through the power up (speed). Continue running breaking through the 1st door. Follow the path around, just as it makes a sharp left press the jump button (X), but don't release the run button (this whole thing must be done while running super-fast). You should jump up into the tunnel, continue running through the tunnel to the right, then to the left, then JUMP again just after you make your left to clear the edge at the end of the tunnel breaking through the 2nd door. Keep running following the path, jump over the lava and follow the path breaking right through the 3rd door, follow the path through this tunnel and as soon as you exit, veer to your left and head up the ramp and through the 4th door, keep following through this tunnel and as soon as you exit you'll be running down a very narrow elevated path. Follow this path all the way until it ends and you will be running super fast right towards the locked door, jump to clear the edge and bust through the door. The faun will be waiting and give you an orb for your efforts.

Treasure Box in Cave
** THIS SOLUTION IS 90% THE SAME AS RESCUE THE FAUN, ONLY THE ENDING IS DIFFERENT **
Pre-requisites:
1. You MUST know the headbash move.
2. You MUST have killed all of the earthshapers, some of them can be pushed into lava, the rest are taken care of by...
3. You must complete both of Hunter's tasks (Alchemist Escort & Earthshaper Bash).
4. You MUST have killed AT LEAST 14 enemies in this area.

Follow the instructions to the Rescue the Faun. Go through the 4th door, keep following through this tunnel and as soon as you exit you'll be running down a very narrow elevated path. Follow this path out to the left as normal, but as it starts to turn to the right jump down to your left and land just outside the treasure cave, jump again to clear the edge (jumping up into the cave) and smash into the treasure box breaking it open.

Untimed hockey Games in Colossus
When at the colossus in the summer forest get to the hockey stage. If you leave the arena and go back in the game will be untimed but you only get one chance and then the puck disappears. If you beat the goalee you will go to two player mode. At this point leave again and then return. The puck never disappears and it's untimed!

Speedway in Winter Tundra
As soon as you walk through the narrow hallway just past the portals (that lead to summer forest & autumn plains.) Turn to your left. Jump into the whirlwind and fly to the tower. Inside are 2 portals to the other realms. Turn around so you can see the whirlwind you just came from. Jump and glide over to the side walls. They are just thick enough to land on, so land on it then look along one of the walls. There is a waterfall. Jump into it and it will lead you into a cave with gems and an orb. Follow the water and you will find the speedway.

Start with fireball
You can start a new game with the fireball. First load a completed game, make sure the special permanent fireball powerup in Dragon Shores is active, and that Spyro has it. Then quit that game, and start a new one you should now have the fireball instead of the regular flame. It makes the hard parts, such as the turtle soup and escorting the alchemist, easier.

Finish Sunny Beach Without the Baby Turtles
Get to the second big turtle that you push on the circle to open the gate but DO NOT push him; instead, go to the ladder ahead of it and to its left. Now enable the all abilities code (unless you can climb)and climb up the ladder.

Glide to the ledge across from you and then glide to the ledge with the guy and the turtle box. Go halfway across the bridge and jump down to the left. Look to your right and you will see the baby turtles on the other side of the gate. You should see the baby turtles and can now finish Sunny Beach without them.

Hint - Easier Hockey Challenge
In the level Colossus where you play the two hockey games, I found an easy way to make both games much easier to complete.

The first hockey game you have to make 5 goals in under 2 minutes, and here's a trick to complete it easily- first make sure you have the puck, then, look for the dry strip of land to the right of the goalie. Yes that's right- there's actually a tiny, dry area of land located here for you to walk on. Once you find the dry area, walk on it. Now, while still standing on the dry land, turn completely around so you are facing the icy hockey field straight in front of you, and the goalie to the right.

Now, walk forward onto the ice alongside the goal, while at the same time, look to the right corner of the screen to keep an eye on the goalie. Here's the important part- when you slide past the goalie but can still see the goal, this is the moment for you to turn right and shoot the puck into the goal. Since Spyro can move faster than the goalie, you will be able to slide past him and he won't be able to catch up to you, as long as you remember to walk onto the dry area before heading out to the ice. This trick is guaranteed to get you a perfect and easy shot almost every time. Just make sure you don't slide into the goalie. Slide next to him. In my opinion, this is the easiest way to get all 5 goals under 2 minutes.

Repeat the same process again for the second hockey game. Granted, the second game is harder because now you have an opponent to deal with, but the trick still works. I hope I explained myself properly because it's not that difficult of a trick to pull off once you get used to it.
