WOO! I've been wanting free-flight forever! The co-op I'm interested in, but that can be good or bad depending on how well the A.I. works on one player modem or if by coop they mean tag teaming. I've yet to play the second game, though. Better get caught up before this one gets more press.

I just have this feeling that they will be a bit older so that the romantic idea of Cynder and Sypro can be explored with more feeling other than how cute feelings.... Also Spyro could fly many times in previous games he needed powerups, in legend of sypro he did not need powerups for the breaths... He also discovered he could fly but seemed to prefer not to... smilie
