The game where Spyro finally was able to fly, and not just glide. The graphics also looked very beautiful.

V Yeah, I wish... But they're no going to. They already said they were going to make a LoS movie but cancelled it. Plus Spyro is now owned by Toys for Bob. Still, it would be amazing to have another LoS game...
Oh how it would be great...
