...OH NO. IT'S SUCH AN ISSUE. SPELLING ERRORS IN A BOOK!!! THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!!!

These kinds of people deserve to be shot in front of their family, or go hungry for months.

But seriously, you're a fool if you think that this is a major issue.

In the Spanish guidebook, some catchphrases are bad translated from English, some typos in the text, Prism Break, Eruptor and Pop Fizz have their Lightcore artwork and in the 4th page of the book, in the alternate decoration of Crusher it puts Polar Whirlwind

How so? So what, they mixed up with some of the catchphrases - who cares? BradyGames didn't make the game, they should be expected to know the phrases exactly when they publish their guides.

They should be knowledgeable about the game that they are trying to inform others about. That's like if in the dictionary they spelled some words wrong. That shouldn't happen.

If you want to settle this, send it to me and my cat will destroy the guide. She tried to get to mine, either she decided I would have been mad or because she weighs about 13 pounds decided it was too much work for her and she quit. Give her enough time and she will have it done.


Back on point, Activision should be the one who is ultimately responsible for this. They are the makers of this game and should be in control of anything "official" that comes out for it. That is why this game sometimes to me feels rushed. I wish they would have taken sometime to make sure everything gets done right and sometimes it is not. I don't expect everything to be perfect, however some simple proof reading on both brady and activisions part would be awesome... Activision and Brady Y U NO PROOFREAD?

That's a laugh! Who still uses the dictionary?! It's 2012! People have cell phones that can show them words!


No, but seriously, those two things aren't even comparable.

The lack of consistency with the figures/art/media, in terms of being mirrored incorrectly, colored incorrectly, etc., bothers me more. smilie The one thing about Sprocket that bothers me is the fact she has a gold clock on her toy and art and it's blue in the actual game... And a ton of Skylanders have general errors like this that just shouldn't be. smilie
They also got some upgrade descriptions wrong, so.

Neither, I'm being sarcastic. You don't even need an app. If you have the web, you have the dictionary. And I don't think getting Zook's name wrong is as bad as misspelling words on an essay because of a messed up dictionary. It's trivial at best. I have a Pokemon guidebook where the Pokedex got Pidgeotto mixed up with Pidgeot, but I had enough common sense to realize that.

^ This... I agree that this game does seem rushed, in many aspects, but if Acti let BradyGames use the rights to make a guide, they are taking responsibility for what's produced... I think taking a little more time on certain aspects and attention to detail can defiantly polish it off!! smilie
