No, because that was only a rumor. I don't think Activision really confirmed that was true.
Besides, it's Activision, what do you expect? :l

With the new game 'Giant Skylanders'.... didnt they say if 'Skylanders' did well, spyro would have his own game, and ofcourse it did do well..... why is there a sequel to ' Skylanders' not a game of spyro?? :S

I think Spyro's Kingdom was the test name for the first Skylanders..
Though I kind of wish both SL and SK could be made.

I think Burned Lands is an annoying level, cuz the enemys takes like forever to defeat and quit often, you can't escape from some battles.

I have to say that 'Burned Lands' is my least favorite level, very easy to get lost there.

My favourite attacks on this game are the ones where you grab an enemy with your mouth and swing it around, hitting any other enemies nearby. Great stuff! This is a really fun game with tons of action. And Sparx is hilarious!
