Product Description
As a teaser for some more detailed Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure news that we will be bringing you next week during E3, Activision has released some character vignettes, which tell us a little more about the characters that are set to feature in the game’s starter pack. Skylanders Spyro’s adventure involves real life toys, which players will have to place on the Portal of Power to bring them into the game. The three toy characters that come in the starter pack are: Spyro, Gill Grunt and Trigger Happy. We have some information and some short clips where players can see all three characters in action.

If you have a person (child or adult) that likes to play or is just started video gaming this game is great for them. The graphics are wonderful and the voices are good, Patrick Warburton who did the voice for Kronc is the voice of Flynn and he really does a fine job.
I was intrigued by this whole concept from the moment I saw it in the stores before Christmas (when the shelves were loaded with characters) and I really wanted to give it a go, so I bought two of them for Valentines Day, one for me and one for my honey.... he really is enjoying it, first he said the game is entertaining, second he loves us spending time together, and third he loves being able to change out the character when he chooses.. of course this leads to "honey who ya got over there" as he takes out all of his people.
This would be a great birthday gift especially if others are in on it and can get the other figures.. you could make it a Skylander Birthday party!! I think this game is a great way to connect with your kids, boys and girls alike would enjoy this game and if you learn which characters do what in the game and why they are so important your kids would talk to you endlessly.
So if you are looking for something for family time or a special gift ... give this one a go!
The game is very fun, and allows 2 players to select their character of choice and place on the portal (which is connected to the Wii using a wireless USB antenna that is included with the portal), at which time they are transported into the game. However, if the character dies during the game, you have to swap them off the portal with another character. Each character has an element that they represent, so some areas of the game are inaccessible unless my kids are using the correct character. In addition, each character has different strenght, defense, speed, and powers...making each character unique in their own way.
So far, my kids have had a great time playing the game. I would highly recommend buying a few more characters, as my kids have really enjoyed the ability to swap out the characters for those with different powers or attributes.
***UPDATE***
Based on continued gameplay, my 9 years old had the following comments:
I think Skylanders is a realy fun game. You can collect differnt skylanders and trade them with your friends.In this game you can colloct mony and upgrade your skylanders.Skylanders can move up levels by defetting foes. You also can use a skylander on any game system. If you have a Wii but your friends have a Playstation or XBox, the characters will work on any of them. But the thing is when a skylander dies on a level you can't play that skylander again until you either start the level again or you quit the level. Other then that I think skylanders is a great game.
