Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

It makes me a little disappointed how they are changing spyro into... this 'toy' thing.

Not impressed so far

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

*throws up* My GAWD! He is an abomination! or Someone just beat him horribly with an ugly stick, broke that, and moved to the fugly rod! I think this is a disgrace! having to buy TOYS to play the game! The Graphics look like WoW and it doesnt seem like it will even be like any spyro game.

MY dear friends... I believe this is the end of the world.... Of spyro. This game MAY just be the spike that is plunged into the heart of the franchise to kill it and put it out of its misery. This is already making Dawn of the dragon look like an amazing game in comparison! Im just... speechless.

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

Lol, the toy thing seems so gimmicky....
...Which is to be expected, considering the target age range is 6 to 12. tongue

What I find interesting is the "Skylanders" prefix. It makes it sound like they'll be doing more of these Skylanders things with other franchises.

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

I think this topic should be moved into the Spyro General section - that way, more people can see this. And I suggest to rename the title as "Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure Announced".


In my world, I believe that there are many, many ideas that are waiting to be created; by inspiration, renewing an old idea, or just by accident.

God, Spyro looks ugly. And I don't like the toy thing, either.

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

I think what they meant was that the concept of the character Spyro was originally based on the Playstation games from the 90s (because that's what the average person knows Spyro as), not that they're continuing that universe necessarily.

Well if it was based on the old spyro then some where along the line some one had to have been doing drugs to have messed Spyro up this bad in looks... I mean really!

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

Here's Spyro's bio from the game:

Spyro
Element: Magic
Primary Attack: Fire Breath
Secondary Attack: Horn Charge
Upgrades include:
- Flight
- Spread Fire
- Aerial Head Bash

Bio: Spyro hails from a rare line of magical purple dragons that come from a faraway land few have ever
traveled. He has been on many exciting adventures, and has a remarkable knowledge of the different
lands he protects, more so than any other Skylander. A strong‐willed dragon who is young at heart,
Spyro is fearless and brave. A true hero dedicated to defending his world from all things evil.

Will the game be out on PS3, or still Wii and DS?

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

What I'm wondering is how it's going to work for the DS. The portal thingy would just be a wireless signal, maybe.

Kind of defeats the purpose of a handheld by making it less portable.

The graphics are mediocre for Wii, but they can't be serious on PS3. Look how blocky his chest is!

Re: ***BIG NEWS- A PICTURE!!! AND MORE INFO***

Spyro has his horn charge back? And his headbash? YAY!  big_smile

But seriously, I have a problem with Spyro's design. Odds are, Activision will change it if 100% of the Spyro fanbase are against it.

And Spyro should swim and fly as well.

EDIT: Okay, he could fly after an upgrade. But what about swimming? He didn't swim in water since A Hero's Tail!
