Skylanders: giants

Skylanders Giants is the second Skylanders game where you put toys on the Portal of Power and send them into the game. The game starts out in a toy store where you see Kaos ( the original villain of skylanders) on shelf as he uses the store's portal to get back to skylands and , as luck would have it, he was sent to a evil robot that was used to take over skylands 10,000 years ago. You now must send the giants to skylands to save from Kaos. The giants have special powers that let them do things like break cracked walls and floors. There are 8 giants and 8 brand new skylanders, 8 lightcore skylanders and 24 series 2 skylanders, but the giants are the stars of the show. I found that my old skylanders didn't work as well as they did in the first game even though I was gentle with them and skylanders also cost more. But I know a trick to get old skylanders working, put 1 working skylander on the portal of power then put older one on at the same time, next take the other skylander of and old one should work. This is a good game but is held back by being more money then the first. I give this 4 out of 5 stars. By Nick Starceski
