Ginx: Skylanders Spyro's Adventure Review

Skylanders is shaping up to be this Christmas's must have game with the action figures flying of the shelf. We fire up our "Portal of Power" to see what the fuss is about and meet up with our old friend Spyro and a whole host of his crazy new friends. Good luck choosing a favourite.

Why is this getting good reviews, I saw my cousin play it and I mean......what a rip off.

It's crap

Plus, your supposed to review the game for what it is

Skylanders...SPYROS...Adventu res

Notice that word there...Spyro, is this anything like a Spyro game......NOPE

So it shouldn't be getting good reviews.

hellvaguy4511d ago

Considering the last few spyro games got average reviews and didnt sell very many copies, prolly a good thing it wasnt like past Spyros.

I myself am not a Spyro fan, but my son and all his cousins are nuts for this game and already have about 30-40 hours sunk into it. Its just a casual/kids game like alot of the nintendo games that is a hit with the right crowd.

STK0264511d ago

Reviewing a game based on its name? So I guess it means that spin-off should all be getting bad reviews, despite how good some are, since they don't play like the game they originate from.

WhiteLightning4511d ago

I meant rip off as in it's a rip off buying them since it's just one of Activisions money scams.

Kids buy it, bug parents to buy more fugures to unlock more content, then when sequel comes round those figures will be useless meaning the whole process starts again.

roadkillers4511d ago

I don't know if I buy the review... Insomniac for the win.

TheGamingArt4511d ago

The Best Games of the 2010s

The 2010s occupy a difficult time slot in the world of gaming. The games aren't new enough to be "cool" but they aren't old enough to be "retro." So basically, they're cheap. Ghetto Gamer contributor Hyp3rblue digs deep--but not too deep--into gaming's past to see what we may have just missed.

Asura's Wrath was underrated and the dlc was one of the few times i actually felt like a dlc was worth the money.

SamPao1195d ago

I remember, was it the dlc that basicly gave you the missing mission that without it the story made no sense? :D yeah great one
Never bought it because of that

neutralgamer19921195d ago

Bob

Bro as someone who loves the game and bought the dlc capcom did it really really wrong. Without the dlc the story was basically incomplete. Dlc should add to the experience not add what was it seems cut from the original game

But we do want this game to be remastered because I feel like too many missed on this game. A re-release with all the dlc with better res and frame rate would be awesome

cbuc11251194d ago

I would upvote this Ten times if i could.

Ryushaa1194d ago

You mean the DLC from the time publishers were literally cuting the ending from the game and selling as DLC. I remember the Prince of Pesia reboot also did this, and they didn't even disguised the tactic, the DLC was called Epilogue (Funny fact: this reboot is available on the pc, but the DLC is console exclusive). LOL

It's a certainly a bit strange, but I suppose we all have our own tastes. I'll let it pass because Hotline Miami is on the list. haha

NecrumOddBoy1195d ago

Agreed. Of all the games that came out in that decade, this list picked the most B tier titles and some of the most just okay games. Not saying you need TLOU or BOTW on there but Skylanders?

SDuck1195d ago

Everytime I see a picture of Asura's Wrath I get a moment of happiness for knowing that niche game and then the realization of why it failed with the DLC that made me hate Capcom to the point of saying I wouldn't buy a game of theirs again!

(bought DMC5 on release)

neutralgamer19921194d ago

No doubt capcom were really greedy back than do you remember on disk dlc that we had to unlock by paying extra and other publishers who tried to fight used game market with their online passes

Skuletor1194d ago

Didn't they lock the real ending behind DLC? That game's still sitting on my shelf as part of my backlog, Too bad I rarely touch my PS3 these days.

Ryushaa1194d ago

I can only say: PS3HEN.

Skuletor1193d ago

@Ryu

Might as well, I have two PS3s anyway

Flawlessmic1194d ago

Terrible list but by god did i love hotline miami 👌👌

Outlawzz1194d ago

well I agree this list is terrible. Had to click just to see how bad it was. If someone wanted to know wt the best games were this decade and stumbled upon this list they would think "wt happened to gaming in the 2010's" lol

Crash Bandicoot and PlayStation Nostalgia

The successes of Ratchet and Clank and the Crash-themed Easter eggs shown in Uncharted 4, have a lot of individuals hopeful for a new game. Yet, we have heard that Activision holds the rights to franchise the beloved bandicoot. With their focus on releasing the next Call of Duty, would it be worth their time to make money on nostalgia?

Relientk772891d ago (Edited 2891d ago )

If Sony released a new Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon games on PS4 I would literally flip out and scream like a little girl

Platformgamer2885d ago
