“Activision is unveiling their new game Skylanders Swap Force. Now you may know Skylanders as the action figure that you drop onto a portal and it comes into the game. Well the Swap Force is a new way to play where different figures can change out and become different figures. So the powers of one translate to the powers of another. There are 16 new figures and 256 different combinations. This is coming later this Fall probably going to be the number 1 video game for kids again this year. Good news for parents if you’ve got a lot of Skylanders figures, they’ll play in this game as well and they’ll even do things like jump that they couldn’t do before.”
