darkSpyro

...And all you characters like Cynder, Hunter, Bianca and the Guardians. It seems obvious from the trailer you guys won't be in it

NOOO D:
Sparx was the humor dude T.T

Darn, I'm gonna miss him. He was always on Spyro's side since the beginning........

Yup- in every game, in every adventure. Even the bad ones! :'(

He was mah follower!
*crying*
HE ALWAYS DEPENDED ON ME TO GET THE PIE BACK IN TIME...BUT I FAILED! IM SO SORRY SPARX T.T

*Pats on back* Eat the pie in his memory?

I will bury the pie at his grave in his honor :]

Ah, that sounds good too (damn, I wanted that pie!)

*gives shovel* go dig for it xD

Hmmm... I've, uhh, suddenly become full-up.

This is a trailer that showed some gameplay parts...but not story, story characters and others thing. Please wait for more information and trailers until you are sure that Sparx is not in this game.

I think Sparx is in this game.

To be honest I doubt any other characters will be returning from the looks of it. It looks like they just made up the game then threw in Spyro to get it more attention.

This.

I know people said this about LoS, but it seems it was the only real reason that it's a Spyro game...

Maybe the older characters won't be playable, but they might like, live in the levels or something. It's hard to get all of the information and characters in a trailer.

I really doubt it'll have any connections with the series. This almost hurts to say, but even Legend of Spyro.. nvm

That actually was exactly what I said about LoS when it first came out. But I could eventually see LoS as Spyro because tiny elements of what it used to be still remained.

Not in this, though. The way the story is sounding makes it seem highly unlikely that this will have anything to do with any previous Spyro games and makes me wonder why on earth they would use Spyro for this and not a new dragon.

Must be because, well, the fact that it's got "Spyro" stamped on it means we (the fanbase) are paying attention. They'd rather take something established than try to create a new fanbase, I guess.

If you look at the title, you will note that it indicates the series is about the Skylanders, and this installment just happens to be about Spyro; however, future installments may not.

Yeah, I did notice that. That was my initial thought when I heard the title as well.

Makes me think that maybe this is just a side thing for Spyro and they're still going to have a different set of games that'll be canon.

I really hope it's a once off.....does anyone else find it peculiar that they axe Guitar Hero, and then a day or two later, they announce another game that requires you to spend extra money on plastic peripherals to get the full experience?

My guess is everyone that cared already had the stuff for Guitar Hero, so they want to sell new plastic stuff.

Oh, God, it's like Pokemon but you have to pay for every monster! D:

But, y'know what they say: Gotta catch em' all!

Goodbye Sparx..... In a way, I kinda hope they'll bring him back in the future, even though right now it's unlikely

Quote: TheWereCat

Gotta buy em' all!

Fixed.

Yeah, though I honestly don't see where he could fit into this

But awesome avatar, Spyroo, saw that on the site

As soon as I read about the toy concept, this came to mind....seriously, this is obviously Activision's plan!

Haha, thanks! I love this pic

At least they can't mess with him any more than he was.
Rest in peace, Sparx...

But they might make another game...if they do...it might be Spyro solo again.

Im sticking to the belief that this game is strictly promotional. Advertising in an attempt to bring life back to a dead gamin icon.

Spyro and Sparx and Crash Bandicoot are like Mario, and Sonic, and Zelda.

I know. But I say rest in peace to Sparx again.

I preferred when he was your health bar. After ETD, he was ruined. :< At least he wasn't bad for [most of] TLoS. I only liked him in the original three and ANB/TEN(REPAIR THE PIE!).

I liked Legend sparx for sake of difficulty, it was much easier.

I agree with this. I think ANB/TEN Sparx and Krome Cynder are the only characters I liked in TLOS.

From what I read in the articles, it's still very much up in the air about which old characters will be in the game. It's been said that they've wiped the slate clean on the Spyro franchise and this is a total reboot (which LoS was not). However, that doesn't mean we won't see familiar faces in Spyro's homeworld or in the course of the story.

Skylanders is likely going to be a larger over-arching story, but this first installment does appear to be focusing a little bit on Spyro (he wouldn't be in the title otherwise).

I'm not ruling anything out until I play the game. And don't forget, an early trailer won't tell us much at all about the game. They've got months to work on this and add stuff.

I'm not really ruling out Sparx. But it's pretty obvious when the major reboot come he'll be majorly changed, if he's in it at all.

I should have said it long ago. :< I miss old-ish and retro-ish Sparx.

You never know, some of the 30 colectable characters might be some of the old ones but in different styles.

Those are the playable ones. Although, a Sparx figure could be used to unlock new mini games,

Unlikely. They were not mentioned in any news. Not even in the trailer.

Yes I am. And I'm enjoying it.

I saw a dragon in the trailer that had cynders horns though, and similar colours

In regards to story, I think it's a one shot, or it is going to be a small seperate series that will go along with the main series...basically, I reckon this game will be to Spyro what Dissidia(or even Crystal Chronicles) is to Final Fantasy.

Personally, I think it should be a one shot, but they will release a lot of new toys as time goes on, and they will be playable. They should also include a level maker and online play. This game is much better suited to a community-based affair, rather than a story-based one.

^ Yeah. For one thing, IGN expressed that what holds the most promise is the competitive multiplayer, which means that this is a lot like Call of Duty. Disgrards the story and focuses on multiplayer and leveling up.

I'm praying my friends might like this, so I can play it with them... Though I doubt they will.

But, in regards to characters, I seriously doubt we'll be seeing Sparx, Cynder, Elora, Hunter and the gang again. Or Malefor, Ripto and the villains.

Cynder in the trailer?

There was a dragon i thought could be her at first, but the underbelly was yellow.

I can't believe they got rid of Sparx. (from the looks of it)

Kind of hard to have him as part of the action figure, and I guess they decided he could not be a stand-alone character.

Hm where exactly in the trailer?

I don´t think Sparx is away...i hope not Q__Q

0:23 in the ACDC one.
