Unboxing Xbox One Skylanders SWAP Force Starter Pack
This isn't quite as detail oriented for me, particularly regarding the characters...That said, if you want details, check out the Wii U Starter Pack unboxing.
So, you are probably asking, why pick up another Starter Pack? I picked up a XB1 to play a few titles that skip Nintendo and some that are Microsoft exclusives that my Nephew and I will enjoy. Obviously, this SP will allow me to play the game on a different console. Why do that? Simple...
First, I will play the XB1 version behind the Wii U's blind playthrough. I will be doing this to level up and get cash for the characters not featured as prominently in the blind playtrhough (think alt-deco, S2, and S3 characters) as my emphasis in the blind playthrough will be SWAP Force Skylanders and Newlanders.
Second, when I complete most everything on the Wii U, I will come in and record Nightmare Mode on the XB1 which will let you compare and contrast the game, graphics, and more across two systems.
Again, I can't stress that Skylanders SWAP Force is the best game going in the kid friendly, family fun genre for the XB1. Some might even argue, at this point, that SWAP Force is the best game currently available for the XB1.
I am looking forward to playing the game and getting the bonus of utilizing the characters not featured as prominently in the blind playthrough. This means I can continue to use Scorp, Riptdie, and Countdown in the blind playthrough, but come upgrade time Knockout Terrafin, Anchors Away Gill Grunt, and Big Bang Trigger Happy will be levelled up, have cash for upgrades, and be more ready to take on Nightmare mode with their Newlander counterparts.
I have never owned an Xbox and SWAP Force is my first XB1 game, actually arriving BEFORE the actual console :D
Don't forget, you can currently catch all STARTER PACKS on sale at retailers like Toys'R'Us and GameStop, anywhere from $15-$20 off...It is a great chance to land that second Blast Zone and Wash Buckler if you missed out on the Dark Edition Starter Pack.
