I haven't played Skylanders yet, but I like some of the new characters and it looks like a new game.

best game ever! i love how it looks and the story. I wish they had continued it. even though it was a trilogy.

My least favourite level would have to be the Burned Lands or Twilight falls. Mainly because I found them tough the first time around. Still, I do love to play them!

Those Elite Enemies really annoy me! X)
