[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;40941206]Didn't Giants just came out though[/QUOTE] That's what I said when Giant's came out. I still haven't collected all the original Skylanders. And I likely never will now that hardly any are sold in stores anymore.
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;40941206]Didn't Giants just came out though[/QUOTE] Money Money Money
My little brother has every single Skylander released thus far (aside from remakes/series 2 versions of certain ones). Swap is going to be fucking [I]nuts.[/I]
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;40947999]I've never played Skylanders (Even because the concept is really lame) but can't you fool it with a programmed RFID or NFC tag to choose your character instead of spending money on plastic waste?[/QUOTE] Yes and I'm pretty sure someone did that, but then he got a Cease and Desist from Activision.
Skylanders is a disgustingly blatant money grab.
[QUOTE=ScottyWired;40948076]Skylanders is a disgustingly blatant money grab.[/QUOTE] But hey, It works doesn't it?
[QUOTE=ScottyWired;40948076]Skylanders is a disgustingly blatant money grab.[/QUOTE] But the game itself isn't even that bad which is the most surprising aspect
I still have no idea what this game is about, what genre would it fit in to?
[QUOTE=Viper202;40948797]I still have no idea what this game is about, what genre would it fit in to?[/QUOTE] Fits perfectly into the "Fuck your childhood" genre: [img]http://puu.sh/3b5Hs.png[/img] Yeah that's Spyro. No, I'm never going to forgive them.
[QUOTE=paul simon;40948905]Fits perfectly into the "Fuck your childhood" genre: [img]http://puu.sh/3b5Hs.png[/img] Yeah that's Spyro. No, I'm never going to forgive them.[/QUOTE] If they literally rebranded the first game as "Skylanders" and removed Spyro from the roster, you would never know the difference and you wouldn't be complaining. Spyro is actually one of the shittier characters anyway. :v:
[QUOTE=ScottyWired;40948076]Skylanders is a disgustingly blatant money grab.[/QUOTE] It's just like any other collectible thing, except it has a game attached. UB funkeys was the same shit, and I never heard people complain about that.
[QUOTE=Viper202;40948797]I still have no idea what this game is about, what genre would it fit in to?[/QUOTE] Diablo for kids. You kill enemies to get exp and level up so the character deals more damage and has more LP, and gold to buy new skills or upgrade the ones your character already has. No random drops, and you can find hats hidden in the different levels that give you different stat boosts. My little brother finished Giants in two or three days, I'm not sure if it was worth the money spent in the game and the figures.
[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;40953158]UB funkeys was the same shit, and I never heard people complain about that.[/QUOTE] because approximately 23 very quiet people bought them
nintendo would make a fortune if they made something similar with pokemon
They do, it's called trading cards. Making five bucks from two cents of paper.
Whoever came up with the idea for the physical figures was evil but brilliant
i know you used to be able to use the trading cards to get the pokemon in game, you can't do that anymore iirc i guess re-release the e-reader iunno
[QUOTE=Liem;40953700]Whoever came up with the idea for the physical figures was evil but brilliant[/QUOTE] whats evil about wanting to make money off stupid wealthy people isnt that normal
