My Thoughts on Skylanders

Mr. John · Aug 03, 2011 10:19 PM

Honestly at first I was just excited there was going to be a new Spyro The Dragon game but now after seeing interviews and gameplay videos I really like it!

Latias fan · Aug 03, 2011 10:20 PM

Didn't like it back when it was revealed. Now i REALLY HATE it now.

Mr. John · Aug 03, 2011 10:26 PM

That is your option and I respect it!

36IStillLikeSpyro36 · Aug 03, 2011 11:30 PM

same as Latias fan. but i hope that you do like it and the game lives up to your expectations, Mr John.

I think it looks like a decent game. Not as good as the classic trilogy but better than, say, Enter the Dragonfly. Okay that's an unfair example, but still, Skylanders doesn't look bad.

At first, I hated it. Now, I'm really starting to like it.

And since Crash Bandicoot's future is uncertain (and Jak & Daxter's), I'm glad that there'll be another Spyro game.

I'm kind of thinking of this as more of a new universe with Spyro in it than an actual Spyro game. From that perspective, I think it looks good. When I was seeing it through my "oh noes my childhood" goggles, I just wanted it to go away.

it gets worse by the day.

all this game is to me is a markating scam to see how much money kids will blow in order to "collect them all"

IMO let spyro die and don't reduce him to THIS level of low EVER again.

Okay, I've seen several people call it this, so let me just clarify something: "Scam" implies the developers are doing something sneaky to trick the buyers into wasting their money. So if this game was a scam, you wouldn't know about it until after you'd bought it. But this is not the case. Nobody's being forced to buy extra toys, and the developers aren't hiding the fact that you need to buy them to unlock stuff.

And "collecting 'em all" isn't inherently bad. Pokemon is a profitable franchise with lots of fans, and I'm sure Skylanders will be, too.

At least you didn't have to *bleep*ing buy the pokemon. There all in the game you catch them all yourself.

Im sure it won't be.

What parent will say "Oh £70 for a game!!! lets get that for my son!!" im sure they'd rather just put them on CoD, Its violent but saves them from buying a game only the kid will play.

Hmmm. I gotta look into them. I like plushes. Most i have is pokemon plusies. My favorite is a Mrs.Brisby plushie i have. *bleep*ing adorable it is.

Clock-la · Aug 15, 2011 9:17 PM

Latias fan · Aug 15, 2011 9:22 PM

I've never actually seen that store you mentioned before. Then again i live in a fairly rural area. I get all of my plushies from the internet.

Clock-la · Aug 15, 2011 9:24 PM

So do i, but i was in london and i just knew there had to be atleast one anime shop, so next time your in a city or going to one jjust go online and see if they are any.

Latias fan · Aug 15, 2011 9:32 PM

I'll go check it out.

God y'know what i will like. Plushies of the brisby children. So that i can have the entire Brisby collection. But the only plusies the movie got was of Mrs.Brisby and Jeremy. That was seriously it.

Clock-la · Aug 15, 2011 9:33 PM
