Activision have finally revealed their plans for Spyro, and those plans are in the form of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. USA Today have the details of this new direction for the franchise.

This is apparently the "innovative new universe" that "will bring the world of toys, video games and the Internet together in an unprecedented way" that Activision recently mentioned in their Financial Results. Which means the game is likely unrelated to any previous Spyro games and you'll be using various real world action figures from a set of more than 30 characters to interact with the game in some manner.
No platforms are mentioned specifically other than "multiple systems as well as computers, handhelds and phones" but earlier rumours suggested Wii and DS as candidates. They also give a release date of "this fall".
Thanks go to Aura24 for finding the article.

Well, this looks bad. Spyro just looks really weird. Hopefully, this will be better when its released.
WTH,
all games I know of that took that path SUCK
I thought that they were going to release something Amazing, not this that, that could end up as a massive POS.
Unless this is a red herring, this may not do all that well for Spyro after all.

Just die.
Please.
My childhood was raped again.
Edit: Liking the graphical style but Spyro looks uglier than he did in TloS series.

Out of all the models of Spyro out there, this one's defiantly my least favorite.

They could really just base it off old Spyro.
Is it really that hard.

The only game Spyro looked good in IMO since the PS1 games is Dawn of the Dragon.... this is his worst.
Hopefully it ends up good.

I'm ignoring the cry babies on this one. They whined about LoS, too, and then proceeded to eat that up. They'll change their tune later on.
Honestly, I think this looks promising. The art style is interesting, they actually hired writers this time, and Hans Zimmer is doing the music. It looks, at least for now, like they've learned from the mistakes made with LoS. I don't really get the whole toy thing, but we'll just have to see how that plays out.

Classic Spyro fans wanted an original spyro game, and they got it. Now some of them already claiming about the things they don't like in the game, like Spyro's design.

Was this confirmed to be classic? My eyes must be going bad, because I searched and I didn't find it?

never said that I loved or hated any of the figures,
but they will scare the group that it is aimed at
