Questions of the Month for June

Each month we field all manner of different questions on askaboutgames. Some people have intricate queries about particular games while others want to know which console will be best for their family. Here are our picks this month.

Some consoles are region locked and others leave it up to the publisher to apply this. The Xbox 360 is specific to region so it will only play games that you have purchased in the same region as your console. The region compatibility is usually marked on the packaging.

Answer: The new Skylanders game will support figures from both Spyro's Adventure and Giants. However you can not use your Adventure expansion packs in the new game. Also, figures that are new in Skylanders Swap Force cannot be used back in the old games unless the characters already existed.

Answer: The Skylanders figures are not region specific, so a figure you purchased in North America should work OK in Europe. The figures are also not platform specific so can be used on different versions of the game.

Answer: Currently there are not any football manager games listed for PS3, although games like FIFA do include some management features. These games are largely migrated to PC and Tablet devices because their touch screen and mouse interactions are better suited to the play style.
