it's funny how Gaul said Malefor's awakening would bring a new age of power for the apes, but there isn't a single ape in this game!

This game looks like a TON of fun! I am hoping to get it for Christmas this year. I like the fact that you can play as Cynder and Spyro in single player or you can play with a friend. I have been waiting for a two-player game for Spyro, but I guess that he seemed like a loner guy, so companies kept him that way. Free flight is sooooooooooo awesome! It is about time Spyro got his wings, I mean, Spyro has been a little kid for so long its not even funny! I hope that when they make more Spyro games, some of them (if not all) include the free flight ability. It also would be nice to see some of the older characters come back (particuarly Moneybags -- he was fun to flame!) and a few of the newer ones (Cynder!) I think Cynder is the best looking girl dragon Spyro has ever had the chance to star with.
