darkSpyro

^Wish I could help you, but I'm contemplating unlocking one (Spyro, Dark Spyro, or Legendary Spyro) myself.

Odds are if I did, Dark Spyro, cause it's only available on 3DS. And I dun have 3DS.

Is unlocking Skylanders in SSU worth it? I wouldn't think it is, since you only get it for a half hour and you're not even getting an actaul demo of what thet character is like in game. But of anyone disagrees, please feel free to tell me so and why.

Hate to seem desperate but I'd REALLY appreciate an answer.

I personally don't think it's worth it. If you were actually able to try them out in the game, that'd be amazing, and I'd recommend it right away.

But you can't do that. The only reason I see any purpose to unlocking Skylanders is to show off to other people and make them think you actually have the toy, or at least just have enough coins to rent it.

I believe Skylanders is offline again. -.-

It won't load the login page.

It would have been wiser of them to give you a proper character demo. They're draw in more buyers that way, because those who are on the edge of buying but need to KNOW it's worth it would get the info they need.

Huh. I guess I really am the only person who just likes SU because it's fun?

It's a free web game, guys. It's not going to have a lot of bells and whistles. And all the real character and game info is going to be on the main site, which is not SU. Anyone who really wants to know about the game isn't going to be looking it up there. It's just another bit of marketing to get people interested and give the ones who don't yet have the game something to do.

I enjoy SSU, I just hope the crash bug is fixed soon

Also. Wut. How did someone get Dino-rang. I MUST KNOW.
Edit: Oh right. Rental. Derp.

This. I actually kinda like SU.

Sure, it's a little buggy, and it could use a platformer mini-game, among other niggles I have, but we have to bear in mind that it's a beta. A lot can be done with it in the future, and considering the fact they are releasing a beta in the first place, that means they will listen to critical feedback.

Absolutely. It would warrant the 10k coins.

That's obvious. And I'm not saying it's a terrible game. But once you get Skylanders, you'll look upon SSU with a bit of a frown on your face, and you'll want to better spend your time playing the actual product.

It's good for people that don't have the game yet. But once you get the game, SSU just becomes boring and tedious, and without any real purpose.

I second both of these...

Gamespot gave Skylanders a 7.5/10:

Well, that still ain't bad.


To be completely honest, I really would have liked to play that M-rated spyro game.
Sometimes fanfiction just don't cut it.

EDIT: Isn't Gamespot one of those "picky" game reviewers? If so, that review is awesome.

I just got the game. And I love it!

Does anyone else have glitches with the portal? I put my toys on, they load into the game and I play, but every so often the toy will vanish like a took it off, then instantly reappear like I put it back on. Sometimes it will load the character twice before it puts them in game, like the toy fell from the portal and was put right back on again.

Anyone else have this problem?

It's about time they reviewed it.

But I'm not surprised of the score they gave it. I actually expected them to give it a 6.5/10. And they do make a point about the multiplayer being offline only. That was a huge disappointment. I was looking forward to you guys kicking my ass on XBL.

I just noticed a picture of TLOS Dark Spyro in the undead levels

^Really? Where? o.o

IKR?

Nothing I would've wanted more than to wipe that smirk off your face.

GameTrailers gives Skylanders a 7.3: http://www.gametrailers.com/vi...s-spyros/722899

There was one of those competitions being advertised on tv when you have to buy popsicle sticks of the same brand and match up the symbols on the sticks (you know what I mean) and they had around 42 starter packs of the game to give away

Gamespot and Gametrailers are a little more picky than most, so this is cool to see.

As for lack of online, hopefully TFB and Activision will notice a demand for it, and possibly add it as a patch.

Seeing how I basically announced that I suck at a fair amount of multiplayer games, I wouldn't really be smirking.

I only recall myself being really good at the multiplayers for Skate 2 and Assassin's Creed.

Assassin's Creed has a fun multiplayer, but it can be so cheap at times.

I CHALLENGE YOU!!!!!!!!

AT AN ASSASSIN'S CREED BROTHERHOOD MATCH!!!!!

I'd challenge you if I actually had XBL Gold anymore. Haven't played Brotherhood in a long time.

I am Skorpion216.

I have a "Vault boy w/ Tommy gun" gamer picture. If anyone cares to know.

Good.

It varies between matches. For me, the multiplayer is a nice change from what's usually found in online gaming, and it's addicting as hell.

First I need a power cord so the Xbox won't burn out after 90 minutes.
Then I need XBL Gold.

After that, you can kick my ass.

I hate that most of the cool looking guys are always taken first...

I like the Prowler.

I'm one of the people that take the "cool" looking guys.

I always use the Doctor.

The doctor is my favorite though.

He reminds me of Josef Mengele.

That reminds me, look for that Spyro suit, man! You promised pics!

I just saw the Hex gameplay preveiw...The music in the background sounds like somthing out of LoS. I still want her though.

That's the background of the Dragon's Peak level you saw.

I meant the music.

Some unseen (yet) preview clips:

^I have the legendary toys. Legendary Spyro doesn't look like that IRL.

Chop Chop: Donut!

IRL Spyro doesn't exist

Hello all, please check out my retrospective topic regarding of my efforts of maintaining the "all the info you need" topic. I recommend for the people who check this sticky topic daily to go there:

Just realized the large amount of comments added to Gaming Nexus' review of Skylanders. Glad to see that those people whining about the game are getting negative feedback.

people are still whining i see..

But they're getting the proper response.

They're just butthurt that Skylanders isn't receiving negative reviews like they had been expecting it to receive.

just remember what zap allways says!

^I lol'd.

btw i drew that.

Win picture!

There was another hilarious pic Skorpion sent me... Can't remember who made it. Think it was Razzek.
