My first video in a long time! For those wondering who I am, I previously went by the names ‘TTD’ & ‘thetitaniumdrago’. I hope you enjoy this video, and expect more like this in the future!
the weapon master was supposed to be a skylander in giants
I feel so old, lol. Doesn't feel like 2 minutes ago I was sat by the Christmas tree opening my SSA starter pack for the Wii. Good times...
@Jake Connor SSA was actually developed for the Wii and was ported to other consoles.
@Jake Connor The Wii version is actually a lot more polished and has way less bugs and glitches compared to the ports. I've played through pretty much every version multiple times and the Wii version is the best in my opinion. This did change after SSA though.
@Jake Connor yeah, I played both and the Xbox has game breaking glitches
same
You’re the first person I’ve seen who had the same relationship with Skylanders that I did. Spyro’s Adventure is still my favourite of the series: to me it has a nostalgic magic that the sequels, while great, can’t recapture. The only two Skylanders from the first game I don’t have are Ignitor and Camo. Thank you for making this video.
eaxlty
spyro's adventure was so good, it was even inmersive, swiming with gill grunt in leviathan lagoon or exploring the pirates seas with terrafin... the good old days
I love the story of how you got into the game, reminds me of my own story except I was only 7 back then. Very good quality video man, fantastic work.
Thank you! :)
Swap force was my first skylander’s game and Firecracker is my personal favorite skylander.
I love the Chinese dragon design and his chaotic personality and so he holds a special place in my heart.
Finally a youtuber doing justice for Skylanders
Finally, someone else that noticed how unpolished the non Wii versions were, there is so much weird stuff going on there, have you seen the sidekicks? their entire models are deformed for some reason lol, i had the PC version and it was a disaster to say the least, the only nice thing about it was that it's the only version that runs at 60fps.
What caught my eye in Skylanders is the elements it gave me a avatar The Last Airbender vibe
Got it for my tenth birthday and It’s probably my favorite gift I’ve ever gotten. The story was never all that interesting but the characters you played as were incredibly cool to me
God I remember opening this for Christmas and getting so excited playing this on my Wii. Even nowadays it holds up as a fantastic game and I recently rediscovered my Wii and reset the data on some of my sky landers to experience this masterpiece once again.
It makes me so deppressed watching. I was that kid who had the first game but wasnt alowed to play the rest. I had such fond memories of playing on the wii.
With all these Skylanders videos you've been posting, you've really wanted to make me go and play them again! They are so good and it's been quite a couple years!
I remember seeing Skylanders Spyro's Adventures commercials when I was 3/4 I felt drawn to Eruptor. The 1st game I played was Trap Team then after I played that I wanted to play the 1st game. I Love all of the games Spyro's Adventures is my favorite and my favorite character is Eruptor.
Holy shit, you're TTD? Thank you for bringing back so much nostalgia haha
Haha thank you!
Amazing video! You covered basically everything there was to Spyro's Adventure, one of the best games ever in my opinion. You've more than earned yourself a subscriber. Hoping to see more of this in the future!
Thank you! I’ve got a lot more videos planned for the future :)
I wqs blown away with the first game. It was so fun. Such a shame they took the oiss with the later games. And over did the reposes but it was beautiful fun and great fun.
That's why I put the Skylanders that I have each against our evil double
This game series was and still is the best. I love it. This video made me very happy :)
I remember trading in countless games at GameStop just to have enough money to buy the starter pack and a few additional figures back when the series launched.
Looking back now, it might not have been such a good idea.
But hey, I was 14 at the time.
Still have a lot to learn even until this day though.
I remember when I was 6. My aunt bought me an eruptor series 2 before I even had either of the games lol...
1:02 seeing this video and the prices of the figures already has me salivating, I remember the toy prices went up to ridiculous prices by Swap Force/Trap Team
#bringbacktheskylands
Wow, why does this sound like my first experience with the introduction into the game, ten years since me and my brother played this in the basement on the ground so we could change skylanders easier, oh the memories good times, simpler times
I remember my parents who both bought the game for me hahaha. I was such a fan, sadly i never played the whole game becouse of scratches on the game. But i bought a new one last summer but becouse of school i don't realy have the time anymore. I loved the whole series so much becouse of the unique story. I also loved to read the background stories of the characters, that way you get to know how and why they became Skylanders.
Very in depth review!! I’ve loved Skylanders ever since I got it for my birthday as a little kid myself and I always come back to the series in part thanks to its amazing soundtrack and character designs. I’d like to point out though that there are elemental zones that don’t fit the level so you have more of a reason to play multiple different skylanders in one level instead of just the same skylander
I'm disappointed that you didn't include a section for Skylanders Spyro's Universe (or just Skylanders Universe), the online web game that came out alongside Spyro's Adventure and lasted up until after Giants' release (though the name lived on via the books). You could scan your figures in via the Portal of Power or just input the web code included with the figure and unlock them in the game to use.
It offered even more post-game content, most notably in raising your "Hero Level" which could only be done in Skylanders Universe. The level went up to 100!
Great video, I love the first game dearly. Some amazing memories with my buddies
Nostalgia 😭
Wow, has it really been ten years? Will we get anything Skylanders-related to commemorate the anniversary? Will the angry haters shut up and let me enjoy it for once?
Well, we all know the answer to that last question. Lol!
I just had this idea but what would be extremely cool would be make skylanders into a hyrule warriors type of game
The skill trees could be stream lined and omg seeing them in the SSA and giants art style HD with all the crazy moves would be fantastic
Or ya know a 10th anniversary remaster I would be first in line for that
Both of these ideas would be so cool
I remember my younger years when me and my mom would go to walmart and cross off Skylanders to get. I wish my copy of SSA worked, but I can get a used copy from my local used game store. So nostalgic.
Man, I was 5, and it was my first videogame too.
I love this video, new subscriber, your channel is very good and my not speaking english but y read the subtitles, WoW 10 years of this videogames saga im starting play this games in mi 6 or 5 years in 2012 or 2013 and since i had my first Skylanders game i've had them all but the sad is that I never had and play Skylanders Spyro's adventures :,( because im starting in Skylanders Giants. Very good video 😁👍 please sorry for my bad english because I write this comment with my english and the help of google traductor(my language is the spanish) very thanks for create this content 😁👍.
My childhood
The Wii version of the final boss is significantly harder than the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions
More...More , skylanders
yes @/bringbacktheskylands
I also didnt even pay atention to the game functionality I just saw how cute Wrecking Ball was and I was just going to buy Wreaking ball but the person who took me shopping for my birthday pointed out it has funtionality with the game that day I got the Starter pack for SSA plus Wreaking Ball and have gotten many more skylanders since
Great video, do you plan on doing a retrospective video for each game in the series? That would be awesome!
I thought the story scroll was referencing the Giants since they said they haven’t been seen for centuries and because he literally says “....these giants....”
Awesome video
The only things that really hold this game back is first of all the atrocious pay to win aspect, and that the characters are pretty one dimensional. They are charming, but as deep as my cereal bowl.
I've always been confused why they ditched the wireless portal. Seemingly not even ever version of SSA had wireless
No I has a wireless portal for my wii it took batteries though either that or it was for my ds
I was so hyped boxing day to buy Nd ply this on my new xbox I did actually buy erupotor before I got the game I got the triple pack of bash eruptor and chop chop was so cool I also loved the online game on the website
I like Skylanders, the first game I ever played, If the game wasn't for pc I might've not into gaming as much
I really enjoyed this video. Too bad the 3DS version isn't featured in this video. I still remember when my brother and I used to play Spyro's Adventure on Wii. Ah, those were such good times. Though I had more fun with Swap Force as it's my favorite Skylanders game. Yeah, we have the Wii version but I didn't mind the down-graded graphics and cut down gameplay.
Nowadays only Skylanders game I have is Swap Force on 3DS.
But it would awesome if Spyro's Adventure and Swap Force got re-released on Steam. If not when I should just buy PS3 and Swap Force for it.
you said the final boss was hard but it really isnt
maybe if you only have the skylanders that come with the game
but really everyone had spare skylanders
i did it at 7 years old with my friend in 1 try with no efford at all
just use like 20 skylanders
It’s challenging in the fact that a lot of them will die, you can’t have a challenge that the player can truly fail in skylanders since the player can literally have infinite lives
Could you make individual retrospectives for the other games such as this one?
Yep! I’m going to start on a Skylanders: Giants one tomorrow. They take a while to make, but expect it in a few weeks :)
Yay
@@AdamOSullivanVideos Awesome
There no way it’s 10 yrs old never played spyro adventure started at giants but had so many figures like dark spyro. Man time going to fast
Your the person who made the skylander boy and girl game right? Well i’m here because of them I remember I never had console to play the games until skylanders super chargers but I always would buy the skylander toys.
Dammit I wanted to do this
idk if you sorted this in later videos, so if you did, good on ya. but you kinda quiet here
TTD is that you?
It is!
Try the 3ds versions
I love the 3DS versions!
ä is pronounced ai
