Uh.. graphics are pretty terrible. Doesnt look like they put too much work into this. Captain jack sparrow looks pretty lamely designed, and sulley barely looks like sulley! Cmon..

I was excited about this game until they announce the yearly installments. Why can't one of these toy games just expand the game using the toys themselves? (I know the answer... MONEY) This is why I haven't gotten Skylanders Giants yet, I still need to buy all the characters from the first and buy the Giants game and then finally the Giants themselves.

Why would you buy ALL the characters?

Because I do like collecting them. It has just gotten out of hand with what they expect me to pay for, especially with the newest Skylanders game they just announced.

People like yourself collecting every single one gives the company more reason to keep pumping out new ones :p So I wouldn't say they are expecting you to buy them all, because it isn't a requirement to enjoy the games.

Because everything each toy unlocks is on-disc. The figures don't work as DLC as people keep saying. They simply command the game names like "Character_Sprocket" or "Location_Darklight" and take actions based on what's being read. They work as keys. If they wanted to do that, they would either need to make a ridiculously massive amount of content on it preemptively, or make proper online DLC which can be enabled with figures(which would strip away part of the gimmick and annoy any customers that don't know about/don't have access to DLC). I don't think that it's impossible, though, I have no idea about coding, but I think that there would be a new Adventure Pack or two for Giants if they could. Either that or everyone's just being greedy and not choosing to because they can simply sell more games like that.

The only thing that's putting me of is the price of the figures £14.99 a pop.

I don't mind buying the base game, I just wish they would support it and not wait a year then move on. I personally would like a game when you pay for the base game and then DLC is released free only to access it we have to buy characters and adventure packs. If a series does this then I will support it.

My biggest beef is that the toys are all (as far as I know) statues. Why can't they give these things some joints!? Then it would give them much more of a toy aspect. As it is they're meant to either sit on a shelf, or sit on the reader. Bleh. My younger self would not be a fan :p

The grafic in a game like this is not the most important thing.
Look at Skylanders, dosn`t look all that but still sells by the millions!
I got big belives in this title, have also made a fan site ( http://www.infinity-figures.com ) Take a look and tell me if you like it :-)

There is no doubt that I will purchase this game. My kids and I have had so much fun with Skylanders, and we are all big fans of Disney. With the announcement of Switch Force, however, I have had my interest in this drop just a little. That coupled with Cars being the next play set has not helped. I understand the reasoning behind it. Pixar is what the children seem to think of now and days when they talk Disney animation, and this game is meant to appeal to children.

What I do wonder about this game as it compares to Skyanders is the tokens. The leveling up in Skylanders occurs as you invest time in your character. It seems here all depends on a $5 disc pack. We have time invested in our Skylanders character. My Trigger Happy is my Trigger happy. My daughter's Whirlwind is her Whirlwind. My son's Wham Shell is his Wham Shell. For a lack of a better term, we put time and effort building up each of those respective characters, and while we still use other characters interchangeably with each other, I don't think Infinity will do that for me.

So I thought I'd revive this thread seeing as more info has been surfacing lately. This new trailer released a day or 2 ago and I'm seriously hyped!

The addition Wreck-It Ralph characters pushes my decision on whether or not to buy to a very strong "yes"! Can't wait!

Augh, this game looks like it would be so much fun. But there's no way I'll ever purchase it because of how much content you don't get unless you buy a ton of fairly pricey figures.

:S I know I'll miss out on a great time, but my wallet is not okay with this kind of marketing.

This game does look like a lot of fun, and it looks pretty good too.

Too bad that, as I've stated before, because of other cool games releasing this summer as well, this will likely have to wait, and the apparently pricey figurines and world sets don't help it. But at some point I would like to try this game out.
