Gliding. Flying. Catching eggs. Can anyone among us claim we have ever truly wanted more from life than this?

Watching Sonic be sassed into oblivion
Skateboarding, because obviously
Hating Gnasty Gnorc with every fibre of your being
Enjoying the change of pace with the occasional water level
Knowing the true thrill of egg hatching way before Pokémon Go
Just being a general badass
Relating to the sorrow in Spyro's eyes at the Game Over Screen
