Wow! The box art for the game looks so cool! I want to get this game for the Wii since I should be getting one for my b-day. Or I will get it for the PS2. I love Spyro and can't wait to play this game once it is released...the graphics look spectacular and the designs of the characters look much better than any I have seen before....even better than the previous ones! 5 stars to this awesome game!

Ok, Now that we have the cover and some screens, all that we need is some gameplay, a trailer, and the characters. If gas prices were not so high I would have my trip 2 L.A. to see my aunties and my mom said she would take me to E3, but it's cancelled so I have 2 stay at boing old Alabama and go 2 a beach down there. At least Im goin somewere and I have friends and a cellphone. Maybe next year, but d!*@
