No, but I was hooked by the "grown man in his underwear" part.

@CornBREDX: They're insane into it. If you ask my 5 year old nephew how he's doing, he'll just yell "Skylanders!" at you. He barely even plays the video-game part of it. My 3 year old nephew also loves them. He likes piling them together and then lining them up to see which ones he has. They both bring them every single place they go. School. Restaurants. The car. Bathtub. Pooping. Not pooping. If I were dying on the side of the road, they would ask the Skylanders if they were okay.

@Max_Cherry: What a helpful comment on a video about Skylanders. Do you regularly comment on content that focuses on things you don't like?

This reminds of me Medabots. They had little figurines that you could interchange both hands, feet, head and torso and they also had a few video games but never integrated them together.

@CornBREDX: I was at a Chinese restaurant a couple weeks ago and just happened to have some couple with their kids sit behind us. I though oh great, another night out ruined. But the kids ended up just talking about skylanders and how great it was. They even had some of their favorites with them. I think it's pretty popular.

I can't help but ask. Are kids actually into this franchise, or is it just adults that think this is awesome (which, to be clear, it seems like it is but not really my thing)?

Any of you duders ever play Impossible Creatures? I have fond memories of that game, and this reminds me of that quite a bit. I actually forgot that was a Relic game until I looked at the wiki page again just now.

I don't think it's possible for me to give less of a shit about anything relating to Skylanders, but I'll watch Jeff talk about anything and still enjoy it.

I cant tell if Jeff is slightly plastered in this video or not, the beginning makes it seem like it, but he seems to gain some sobriety when he gets into it.

Thank you for telling me about Skylanders. I now feel most informed. I had to turn my speakers down though.

Nope. Jeff doesnt kid about Skylanders stuff. The man has spent a fortune on this stuff.

Well at least over 300 dollars.

Jeff strikes me as the kind of crazy fucker who would spend $300 for a joke.

I wish he would have spent that money on a decent microphone instead.

Let's not forget how much he spent on Game Room. :P

This video reminds me of the NintenDownload Express.

Just when I though that "You know" couldn't be taken to a new level... BOOM!!! There comes the Gerst Man and takes it to a whole new level. "You know" will never be the same.

And Skylanders, I guess.

I never thought I'd watch a video where the audio was clipping 100% of the time.

Only the power of Jeff Gerstmann destroys our expectations of ourselves.
