Wow, things change really quickly.

Even though it's difficult to keep up my editing and productivity, I still wish to keep up to date with you guys.

The schedule didn't exactly work out last week, but I can definitely find the time to do what I want to in between my school work. I'll bring out the third Power Blog finally on Monday, and will continue to make them from there.

My fanfiction, Minor49, will be released sometime this week. I hope you will all enjoy it!

Here's a little secret: it's the prequel to Skylanders: Chronicles!

I am also into Skylanders more than ever right now. I'm not sure what happened, but I am now completely disagreeing with my last statement. After not playing Infinity for about a week, I realized something.

You see, Skylanders may not have the double jumps and ledge-grabbing, but it does have something that really makes it a definite superior: replay value. I enjoyed Disney Infinity for about three days before I stopped playing it entirely. In order to fully enjoy the experience, you're gonna have to spend 30-35 dollars in order to get ONE playset (and two more characters). This gives you maybe five more hours of gameplay at best. I got Skylanders: Swap Force last Christmas, and I have still been playing it consistently for almost a whole year.

Since there are levels and a ton of other stuff already packed into the game, you don't need to drain your wallet just to get some gameplay. Disney screwed up when they decided not to include ANY pre-built levels. Also, as far as my knowledge goes, you can't upgrade your characters. There's no new attacks or anything to keep you playing just so you can earn enough cash to purchase that one AWESOME move you've wanted. In fact, the only reason I still play Swap Force is because I want to see everything each figure has to offer.

Well, that's my rant for the day.

Skylanders is certainly not the best game. It has it's ups and downs. There are a lot of flaws, but when it all comes down to it, I think Activision really pulled it off. Giants made the most money any single game has EVER made. That's incredible. It's all thanks to the Skylanders.

Just so I don't lose your interest (if I somehow haven't already), I'm going to wrap this up.

1. Consistent schedule (edits, Power Blogs, etc.)

2. More excitement and interest

3. More fun and time with you guys! :P

Thank you all so much! Hopefully we won't have to go through another depressing post.

See ya!
