Re: Official site up

Gotta love when people try to make companies seem evil for trying to make money. tongue

As much as I dislike the idea of this game, really, it's not Activision's job to make us (the fans) happy. It's their job to make as much of a profit from their products as possible. Which it will certainly do if it's successful at targetting the intended fanbase....

Re: Official site up

Well yeah, but here they're trying to add to the fanbase rather than make the existing fans happy. The Spyro fanbase as it is now isn't big enough for it to be profitable enough on its own, it seems.

Re: Official site up

True, but what's "good" for kids isn't always "good" for adults. It can be, but it isn't always.

I'm also fine with them building up a new fanbase for Spyro as long as the kids who join the forums as a result aren't too annoying. tongue

Re: Official site up

Thirteen or with parental permission, yes, but there's no real way of enforcing that. It's easy to lie about your age and just as easy to say you have parental permission if you don't.

Oh, yeah I failed to mention that I'm actually a 6 year old blonde girl.  And my mom lets me do whatever I want because my parents are divorced and she has full custody.

Re: Official site up

From what I have seen so far, it does not seem like this game has much to do with Spyro, except for the title.

Re: Official site up

So an "adults only" Spyro game would be the answer to your problems, Stormy?  You sicken me.

Re: Official site up

Actually, an adults only game does not sound too bad. I mean, of course it shouldn't go too far with the 'adults only' thing, but we could have more of a serious plot, with twists and turns that are more understood by an older crowd.

Re: Official site up

But thats not what Spyro is about he's a character made for childrens games. If you want adult Dragon fantasy time read Eragon or play Monster Hunter.
