I have to agree there, Spyro should be able to fly (without limit). And I liked the elements in the game.
Didn't care much for the charging in the game besides for a speed boost.

#9571 foxishsolitude 22:14:59 29/12/2011
it all depends on your own opinion.I don't care about charging but i reckon you should have been able to fly (after ignitus helps spyro in ANsmilie and flying in this game could've been soooo much better.

The elements were good too and i kinda liked the story so i like this game.
.....wait i luv it smilie
