Une expérience en demi-teinte. Certains aspects m’ont plu, d’autres beaucoup moins.

The game is mostly great and I love how you can play it again and again without getting bored. But sometimes movement feels weird because of the nunchuck and combat can also be really bad in tight spaces where you most likely will lose lives and that is really annoying especially if you have only a few skylanders.

My childhood game. For me it's very memorable and fun. Liked the giants and what they could do. You can play with your brother or other family members. It looked like magic to my eyes when the figures lit up and appeared on the screen. I think it's level's designs are more creative than the others, not saying they're bad but just this game every level's special. I like how there's a certain areas that only giants/ certain types can unlock. Really showed why there is different types of characters. But this is where the bad part comes in you'll have to buy additional characters to unlock or to make the journey easier. But was not a that big of a problem to me so I give it a 9. Just saying if you played it's sequels it's characters will not work on this game. There's lots of you to do as you can upgrade each characters but again that depends on the number of characters you have.

While its by far not the best game of all time, it is my favourite of all time. I have a dangerously high amount of nostalgia for this game and it was the first game I ever got 100% for. The gimmick is that there is now bigger skylanders that can do things cores and lightcores can't. Its a shorter game than its predecessor but all levels, bar maybe autogyro adventure, are solid levels. Some of the bosses could be improved with the use of healthbars though. The story is good using the arkeyans as the central point. Fantastic game with memorable moments throughout.

"Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure" was a massive commercial success, so being that it was distributed by Activision, we all knew that a sequel was imminent. Considering how they treated "Guitar Hero" and "Tony Hawk" throughout the 2000s, and are now treating "Call of Duty" and "Destiny," it didn't take rocket science to realize that this was going to become a regular series. And so, "Skylanders: Giants" came along and, surprisingly enough, became an improvement on its predecessor. Visually, "Giants" looks far better than "Spyro's Adventure," but beyond that, the new cast of characters is charming (just as the old ones were), and the fact that there aren't that many of them (16 completely new Skylanders) and that the game has a "Portal Owner's Pack" means your wallet won't get utterly destroyed like it did with "Spyro's Adventure." The game retains the fun platforming and RPG-like elements from the previous game, the level design is far better, and the gameplay is much more fast-paced and fun than "Spyro's Adventure." Toys For Bob really went the extra mile to make the game better and they definitely succeeded! Well, for the most part. Unfortunately, the game is still bogged down by the occasional bug, glitch, and sometimes freeze that you would get in "Spyro's Adventure." On top of that, the game is far shorter than before, so while the adventure is sweet, it doesn't last extremely long. Even so, "Skylanders: Giants" manages to improve greatly on its predecessor, and it's definitely a game you should check out. Final rating: 9 out of 10 "Awesome"

Great fun with younger relatives, and an excellent 2nd instalment, retaining core mechanics yet drastically expanding on the first game. The ability to use your characters from the first is an excellent feature, but new figures are still annoyingly expensive.

It's really fun, I would say sort of expensive to get the full 100% out of it, as that requires buying all the skylanders which is really expensive, but not necessary at all! If you simply want to go to all regions that would cost about, what? 50$? Not little I know, but it's worth it certainly, but you can beat the game itself by the starter pack, the rest are simply "DLC" you could call them. It's loads of fun, the graphics remind me of the old Games, and the entire way of playing is highly enjoyable, IF you're wondering whether or not to buy it, I'll say go for it.

Fun, Good for family's. you have to fight Kaos and on the way there there are multiple challenges in your way and I think the adventures is great for children and not bloody at all. If you are looking for a good game to get this is a really good game to get for families.

Great fun for kids and parents! The portal with the characters you can put on it is an awesome idea. The graphics are simple but pretty cute and super smooth. The game play in the story mode is pretty cool and full of nice role playing elements

Skylanders Giants is a huge improvement over last years game. My favorite improvements come in the form of Multiple Difficulty Levels (last years game was too easy) and this also allows you to bump up the challenge for high level Skylanders. The second big improvement is the Story and videos that move the Story, last year's game had a relatively weak incohesive story. Also, the Graphics are cleaner, Gamplay is far more active with more variety and challenge. Lots of cool new Skylanders (not cheap) but fun. If I am looking for flaws, there are a few survivable ones. Lack of 4 player, lack of splitscreen play and no real online modes are the most glaring weaknesses. Overall a great family game, don't come here lookoing for a harcore experience. Just wish I could get the kids not to play on Easy difficulty!

A carbon-copy sequel, which should sell you over if you liked the original. But it suffers from the same problem; swapping outtoys needs a second or so of thinking you don't have. Not saying don't buy, but think hard.
