I wonder if the end result would be similar to War OF the Worlds

I don't live in the UK but I'm sure this hurts anybody that enjoy purchasing games from GAME. Especially the laid-off workers.  

Since I live in Florida, gas isn't too expensive. Therefore, I only spend at least $12 worth of gas for myself and it has to be refilled once a week. I don't drive too often as I only drive to work, and to college. Sometimes the grocery store and laundromat.

The most I've spent so far was during the summer. The amount was $15 dollars because I was going on vacation.

How much do you spend on gas in your area and how much is it? From where I live, unleaded is $3.77.

From what I read, Dreamcast was the first home console to use what is known as downloadable content. I was 12 at the time and I never knew what DLC was. I didn't really get into DLC until 2006 which had tons of DLC. However, some the "extras had questionable content. For example: EA charged people for tutorial videos of NCAA 07 Football and Madden NFL07 that were released at a later date. And we found some DLC content on the SFxTekken disc.

Personally, I've never downloaded any add on. Especially, since I already paid $60 to $70 dollars for the darn game! Why pay $20 to $50 for any add on with the game that I bought? Sure, DLC was made to extend the lifespan of a game but that is what online multiplayer is for. Collecting money IN-GAME should get you new characters, new maps, or any other extra content. This DLC trend in the gaming world can have a bad ending if it isn't implemented correctly. I feel that Microsoft, Activision, Capcom, and among others abuse DLC to garner more cash. I know how business works. I just wish they would throw us a bone to their loyal fans. Apparently, game companies are part of an income-dependent industry and will only change if they foresee a benefit to their bottom line.  People pay their hard-earned money to play their published games. Minimum wage will slightly increase or stay the same whilst everything else goes up. Next-Gen consoles are already planned and it won't make any positive outcomes as it will just make development more difficult. How about fixing the long loading times first. It's not like these consoles will have holograms.

I remember a time when "milking" a product on console games wasn't possible.
Regarding used games, I resell or trade-in a used game and I couldn't afford to buy a new game and end up buying another used game. Later on, I may purchase DLC or a $10 online pass and the developer gets extra $ they wouldn't have earned otherwise. Saying the used game market is killing their profits is only looking at 1 side of the story.  Also, when I traded in a game, I just bought a NEW game (At least a game I've never played) at the store, correct? The developer got a sale because I subsidized the NEW purchased item with my own $ from their traded old game That I've already played.

Again, DLC would be a positive thing if it was implemented correctly and wasn't so expensive. Hopefully, in the near future, we will not have to buy music and sound effects as DLC. What do you think of DLC or the game industry?

I'll never understand how they got Cuba Gooding Jr to play as one of those darn Yellow bellies. Unless the pay was good. -_-

After watching Putting your hoof down, I kept saying to myself that Minotaur should be voiced by Mr. T or Samuel Jackson!

Yeah the game does get cheesy at times. It’s quite predictable, the characters repeat animations in-game, and there isn’t that much depth to the characters. No surprises or anything. The game itself is not very complex. The plot is very simple and straight forward.

This quote is what may keep me from spending $69.99 for this game. If it was at least, $49.99 I'd probably try it out. Maybe I'm expecting too much out of this game. Then again, I worked hard for my money so I would expect a bit more. I don't think I would be able to resell the product either. Video games are expensive toys.

If you’re looking for a deep, more complicated game, skip this title. But if you want a game to play for fun and enjoy yourself, then try this game out.

Apparently, this game is for adults whom would like to play Skylanders with their kids. I may try this game out, but I'm afraid I might become bored of it.

How long is the gameplay and How much would it cost to complete the game 100%?

One more thing I want to mention. Activision makes a bunch of money. So what?

The real issue is what they do with that money. If they reinvest it back into their products to give me better gaming, I've got no beef. Let fools waste their money on over-priced collectors editions. However, in 2010 Activision-Blizzard gave out its first cash dividend equal to an amount of about $200 million. Now that's when I take issue - do gamers need to be screwed over so that some fat-cat can buy another ferrari? Or, more realistically, use that money to generate even MORE money and gain even MORE influence in the corporate business world? Now that's when I get ticked off. Because that's just plain greedy.

I've never played Skylanders. I looked at previews of the game and found a lot of old Spyro references. However, I don't think I'll even touch this game anytime soon due to the expensive toy gimmick. Also, I feel this isn't a true Spyro game because his name was never mentioned and he seems like just an extra Skylander. In other words, a marketing tool.

I'm sure this is a good game but is it really worth a bang for your buck?

If you want to know what has been happening with Activision recently you look up this article.

I've been a gamer ever since the NES days. My first game was super mario kart. I have never heard of Activision until I've played the underplayed game, Radical Rex. Recently, I looked them up and realized this mega company is incredibly successful. On the other hand, they are incredibly hated by the gaming community,too. They were always considered a "cash cow", "masters of milking" and "cash grab company where franchises go to die if they don't sell nearly as good as Modern Warfare."

I have only played Modern Warfare 3 on the Wii and thought this military fps shooter was okay. Yet, year after year of the same game, it gets solid scores from many critics. I always thought Mass Effect 2 was a far better experience for me compared to Modern Warfare 3 but apparently those people that gave Activision 1 billion within 16 days may not think so.

Plus, they have this Skylanders franchise which is selling quite a bit off of a marketable character like Spyro, whom isn't even mentioned by name through the entire game. And guess what? They are already throwing out a sequel of this game for this year.

So here is my question to you all. Why are people hatin' on Activision when all they are doing is selling their products and those people are just buying them up like their pockets are on fire? Why and how can "Activi$ion" be this successful when they really haven't done anything ground-breaking?
