Has anyone else ever heard of this franchise or play it?

For those of you who don't know, Skylanders is the spiritual successor to Spyro the Dragon, and features Spyro as one of the playable characters. Skylanders is essentially a simplified isometric dungeon-crawler (Diablo, Torchlight, etc) aimed at a younger audience, but has a moderate following of older gamers as well. The unique draw of the franchise comes in the form of collecting the figurines of all the various playable Skylanders. Each figurine can be summoned into the game by placing it on the "Portal of Power", a peripheral that comes with the starter kit that connects to your console. While you are playing, your character data is saved onto the figurine, and can be used in any other game on any other console. It's essentially a marketing gimmick but it's interesting none-the-less.

Anyway, I was curious if anyone here plays. I grew up loving Spyro the Dragon, and find the Skylanders series to be very enjoyable, especially after a long day at work when I just need a little bit of downtime gaming.

Ever looked up "Party With Pinkie V.I.P "? I don't know if it qualifies as dubstep, but it's around the same lines.

Technically "Party WIth Pinkie" is complextro, not dubstep. They are both very similar genres of music though so it's whatever.

Here's my desktop. Props to anyone who recognizes what it is.

Any tracks from the classic Sonic games are pretty much forever burned into my brain. A couple from Sonic CD are particularly nostalgic for me...

...I am a sucker for a great live performance.

A female student in my bowling class last semester showed up on the first day wearing a Rainbow Dash shirt. Needless to say, we made sure we ended up on the same team and mingled over the next few months. Unfortunately, we never really became what I would consider to be "friends", and she already had a boyfriend...so there was that...

20 Bitz says she's not dead

Oh I don't doubt that 343 may find a way to eventually bring her back, but for all intents and purposes involving Halo 4...she's dead.

Halo 4 is the most fun I've had with the franchise since Combat Evolved. While the campaign is very short, there is more than enough content online to make up for it between weekly Spartan Ops and War Games. Also, with the X360 nearing the end of its lifespan, I can understand why 343 did not want divulge too much of the story on what will likely be the last Halo on this system. That being said, the story of Halo 4 was incredibly gripping, especially when exploring...

...the relationship between Master Chief and Cortana. RIP Cortana.

My absolute favorite pony would have to be Princess Luna. I am attracted to her decorum and mannerisms.

I like rock and metal music, and my favourite bands are on my profile.

Nice, I like some of Avenged Sevenfold's stuff but I've never heard of the other bands.

Hey! No conversations in my introduction unless I'm involved!

Nah, just kidding.

What sorta music do ya like?

Honestly, I like anything that has a good beat. I do, however, have a slight preference towards Gregorian chants.

Opps, sorry 'bout that. Welcome to Canterlot; our Sonic topic is here.

Thanks! I'll be sure to check that out!
