>Spyro's art direction is nice, but it's too same-y.
True for the first game, absolutely untrue for 2 and 3. In the first game the levels usually had a similar theme to the hub world, but in the later games it'd be like going to another universe.

Spyro blows Banjo out of the water, but you're right. It's no Mario 64. I'd say the art direction is slightly better than Mario's though, but Mario 64 still has a lot of moments were it pulls ahead. Tone-wise they're way different to. There's something ominous about mario 64 at times.
