Forums - Gaming Discussion - Spyro's back for good!?

Following the successful 2008 Spyro game called ''The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon'' (which sold well above 1.5m accoarding to VGC), the new Spyro game '' Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure'' launched this week.

Although the game receives some hate from the fans of Spryo (seems great idea to me) as they believe Spyro's name is just for promotion, seems to do pretty good.  The idea of using real toys as characters, items and other stuff could end up successful for kids and not only. Sounds interesting that each figure has it's leveling up, skills, customizations etc...

Forgot to mention that critic reviews average close to 8.5

Spyro has sucked since Insomniac lost control over the development for Spyro.
It's a dead franchise now.They need to let Insomniac develop another Spyro game to save the Franchise IMO.
Spyro: Year of the dragon was the best Spyro game.



one of the articles says ''Spyro's new game is out and it costs $300'', jesus, not unless you wish to buy every single figure, which would be a waste, really

Big waste of money, not worth it.



"From what I've read and personally heard from a handful of retailers, the title is selling like crazy. Retailers are quickly going through their stock, and that includes their allotment of Spyro action figures. Of course, those action figures are key to experiencing new and different content in the game, and the portal they interact with make for the major selling point on this title."

Apparently the game is actually selling GOOD. Maybe this game could be a popular seller for the Holiday season

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

I've seen pre-orders and promotions in UK as well, the figure thing seems unique

also, the game is really a Spyro game, developers said they were developing the game originally just for Spyro but was more hard-core, then they decided that it was too bloody for Spyro, and they choose to use the figure thing and add more characters, and changed it to a more kid-friendly graphics, as Spyro was before the dark 'Legend of Spyro'' games
