Has anyone else here played this with their little ones at home? I bought this for my son and I today at gamestop (had 60$ in trade in credit) and I have to say bravo. It's a total cash grab, but really, REALLY well done.
Basically, you get a USB, ummm, swirly thing. That works on all platforms. Then you get to go buy toys. Well, no articulation but still toys. Then, you put said toy on the swirly thing and BAM it's in the game. The game is kinda like Diablo meets fable 2 meets a lego game. Seriously, I would KILL to see Gi Joe do something like this Activision jumps into kids' game with 'Skylanders'

As much as I hate to admit it, Kotick really know what he's doing when it comes to maximizing profits.
I've been seeing this stuff promoted readily in the store for the past few weeks, and I'll admit I'm a bit interested. Mostly because I haven't seen Spyro in years, but the rest of it is... a very neat concept. Well done Activision. Now bring back DJ Hero and give us better tracks.

Hate to admit it but I didn't buy this game for any little ones...I got it just for me : ) and I love it. The whole concept is cool and different and I'm a sucker for gimmicks. the toysrus buy 2 get one free plus the extra free figure for rewards members pushed me into getting it.
I'm kinda thinking about getting the 3ds version too because I really want that dark spyro plus the game is actually supposed to be really different from the console counterparts. Mainly I want it because there isn't anything else to play on the 3ds. |
