Skylanders Giants is well and truly with us, but we discover that many people aren't aware of the new features, the new implications for figures they may already have and just what the buying options are.
In this episode we sit down with a mum of a household of Skylanders fans and talk her through the unboxing of the new Skylanders Giants, take a look at the included figures and discuss the new features such as Lightcore, the wired portal and the Giants range. We also discuss the differences between the Skylanders Giants Starter Pack and the Skylanders Giants Booster (Portal Owners) Pack. This week's show is simply a must for those that are looking for a simple explanation of the new Skylanders Giants game.

With so many different perspectives it can be hard to know where to start - a little like walking into a crowded pub. Sorry about that.

So, rather than dilute things for newcomers we have decided to live with the hubbub while helping new readers find the columnists they will enjoy. |
