Activision confirmed that is part of the Spyro series, possibly more like a spin-off.

Ok...And what's all this buying-toys-to-play-characters thing? Can someone try and explain this to me? XD

Activision wanted to take a different direction with the Spyro series. Since Sklanders is aimed for a younger audience, Activision teamed up with Toys R Us to help support the game by selling the other figurines to play as the exclusive characters. It has been confirmed that the toy idea was to bring out "the imagination that toys have always unleashed with kids, and the imaginary world of a video game."

You only need Spyro to complete the game, which he is included with a few other toys in the Starter Pack. Some of the areas in the game can only be access by certain characters, but you can still finish the story without going into the areas.

There must be other fun platformers that you enjoy playing other than Spyro.

Spin-off. No doubt.

I mean, where's Cynder? how did Spyro change like this?

Okay, maybe It isn't a spin-off, but then there must be a reason for it that Spyro changed like this..
I mean, Dotd had it's reason for example. They were stuck for 3 years in the crystal, so their body matured. so their bodies were different..

it looks more like a spinoff to me.

Is the Legend of Spyro a spin-off?

Stormy · Feb 23, 2011 11:35 PM

More importantly than Cynder, where's Sparx? Unlike Cynder, he's been in every single Spyro game up until this one.

This does seem more like a spinoff than a Spyro game since Spyro doesn't appear to be the main character, just one creature among many, each with a unique story. I remember reading somewhere on here that Activision is making this game to gain fans for Spyro, and if it goes well enough they'll make a game starring Spyro. But that might have been speculation.

From what I've seen, it's neither spin-off nor main series.

I think it's only a Spyro game in the same way Super Smash Bros Brawl is a Mario game, or a Kirby game, or a Zelda game. And indeed can we honestly say SSBB was a Mario spinoff either? Or a Kirby spinoff?

The situation is admittedly complicated by the fact that Spyro is the only previously-known character there.

But Super Smash Bro's is awesome, hopefully this game can be as good. Maybe if it sells well they will make a second one with an all star cast?

JazzJackrabbit · Feb 24, 2011 2:41 PM

I think I'd rather have Skylanders be a Brawler.

ontels · Feb 24, 2011 3:09 PM

I'm glad that we have a more classic Spyro experiance in this game but a fighting game would be an awesome game down the road.

This is defently a game with Spyro a part of it, it's not his major game but it would attract spyro fans to play skylanders, and possibly skylanders would be perfect and would rise into fame after release. This is new to all of us.
