There are few games as synonymous with my childhood as Spyro. That little purple guy is one of my all-time favorite videogame characters, alongside his bipedal, Wumpa fruit-eating brother-in-chaos, Crash Bandicoot. While The Reignited Trilogy was a nostalgia-tinted blast from the past, I've been eagerly awaiting a new entry in the series, akin to Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time. Imagine my face, then, when I attended an ominous, Activision-hosted preview roundtable ahead of Summer Game Fest, and Spyro: A Realm Beyond appeared on my screen. I'd be a liar if I said I didn't shed a little tear, then immediately started looking for sheep to headbutt.
