What convension are we waiting for this time?

We're waiting for the GameStop conference in Texas on August 29th. It's not a huge convention, so I doubt we'll see much. I don't know why everyone's getting so excited. We just had Gamescom, which is a huge confrence, and all we got were the character trailers for Chill and Shroomboom. It's completely unrealistic to think we're going to get a trailer for every unreleased character so far. For something like this, I'd guess the best case scenario would be to expect about one new trailer for someone we've already seen a lot of, like Hot Head. They'd never reveal someone that's only been barely seen like Sprocket or Ninjini. Hopefully we'll finally get a high resolution image of the poster, but other than that, I wouldn't hold your breath.

September Nintendo Power should be appearing this upcoming week. I believe Nintendo is doing a Wii U conference soon, and although we might not see any character reveals, we might get some glimpse of Skylanders Wii U gameplay maybe.

i kinda want ninjini to look like i thought she would but i doubt it...

Too bad I won't be here during the week. I'm not allowed to play on the computer during school days until Friday afterschool.

Once I come back, can someone give me a recap on what happened while I was gone?

SURE!

If anyone is going to the convention please take a good camera

Videos from toy fair... Where the game was announced. Not sure if serious, or taking the mick.

Looks like Pop Fizz will have a path for that avatar, beast-thing and the other for the potions.

man, skylanders news is flourishing like the sahara or American plains lately...hopefully that GameStop event changes things...

hey guys i was looking on the nintendo e-shop because i was bored and typed in skylanders. skylanders giants came up and they had screen shots of the 3ds game. there were pic's of the upper and lower screen, with tree rex battling enemies on the top and 2 crystals (similer to SSA 3ds) on the bottom. the skylanders in the crystals were pop fizz and tree rex.

The thing on the 3ds shows a desert level. It also confirms MULTIPLAYER WITH OR AGAINST YOUR FRIENDS ON THE 3DS VERSION!!!

Is that an American thing because in the UK, it doesnt bring up anything when I type it into the search bar?
If it is, can someone post the pics please?

guys i found this on google

^Already know about the levels revealed on the Xbox 360 achievement list. And it's a redirect page.

i really hope that the 3ds gets multiplayer. that would be really ausome.

@onga, ??? Did you not read my post? It will!

i understand your post. sorry if i made it seam like i was ignoring it. really sorry.

Spyro delivers!
Nice find, onga!

This is the best quality you'll probably get, unless someone has an HD camera or something.






EDIT: Also, VERY interesting to note. Down on the "features" area, it says "Supports 3D content. Supports Spotpass. Supports Streetpass". Why is that so interesting? Because the original does not. I went back to the Sklanders: Spyro's Adventure page on the eshop and it only mentions the 3D support.

So it looks like they'll maybe have some special downloads and stuff for the 3DS, or maybe you can share your best time completing a level or something.

@spyroflame0487 thanks. I think I'm like the only person that likes the 3DS version much more than the console version

I don't know if I could pick a favorite, I loved them both, but they're just such widely different games that it's like trying to compare apples to oranges.

thank you for uploading the pics spyroflame. and that is very interesting that is supports those features. maybe we will be able to play multiplayer without people needing to be in the same room.

It me or it look like Crash bandicoot

I hope there are more fandom easter egg/jokes

I laughed at the spyro corpse in one of the levels referencing the fan angst when skylanders was first announced, Toys For Bob have always been like that

Spyro's corpse? I never heard about that, when was this?

It's in Cadaverous Crypt in the left room at the entrance of the level.

Yes! The first two pics looks like the first Level on the Wumpa Island in Crash Mind over Mutant! o_ô

Wow, in the 3DS version, Tree Rex looks about the same size as the Drow Witch..

True it's also the same thing on the other versions but still on the fig they're blue

In case no one got a chance to see on the other topic, a UK site uploaded some pics of new giants products; a sticker sheet and a keychain set.

Thumpback was on the keychain set and



A better image of Hot Dog without Prism Break partially obscuring his head.

also if you go to the giants section on the e-shop and click on giants but not more details it goes through some images. one of the images is a screenshot of punch pop-fizz.

Can somebody get a clear image of that? I dont have a 3DS..

what were the other figures on the keyrings?

Pop Fizz, Bouncer, and Shroomboom

Got it. It's just a little box picture though.


He looks more burgundy color then red to me, but this double confirms him as being a different color in game.

Xbox Giants achievements list:

Sorry. Did a forum search for achievements and got nothing. At least you were polite about it

Hey, wide, think you can edit your post and shorten it and just add the xbox360achievement.com link? The achievements did take a lot of this page's topic space.

EDIT: Thanks.

Video link. I thought it was pretty neat of them to include it. Here's hoping they include more in Giants.

faun always thought that was malefore's corpse since it's got three horns. but it does have spyro's tail and isn't much bigger than he is, so who knows? if that is him, that's pretty awesome; it's no less than this fandom deserved at the time for being so unreasonably nasty.

^ Most of them are still raging and trolling.

really? faun only sees the whining every now and again on tumblr and deviantart, mostly from people who wouldn't be happy no matter what. on here, nobody seems to complain much in the overall spyro boards (at least that faun has seen). and the skylanders section is, by far, the most active (outside of, maybe, the nonsense/spam boards).
