Epic Mickey wasn't exactly universally acclaimed, especially among Fantasmic Dreams role-players. But despite the very mixed reviews, it sold approximately two million copies to date.

Apparently, a Disney-online survey has been circling around. The survey asks for the readers to vote on a potential title, as well as a box cover art.

Epic Mickey 2: Return of the Mad Doctor, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, Epic Mickey 2: Mystery on Mean Street, or Epic Mickey 2 are the potential titles.

While the first game is a single-player adventure, the proposed sequel is reported to have a split screen co-op mode, with one character playing Mickey and the other Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. The two characters will evidently have different play styles.

Here's the biggest news: it won't be a Wii-exclusive. It will also be released on the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3.

In my humble opinion, Epic Mickey was the most disappointing 2010 video game, and one of the biggest disappointments in anything Disney. No, I don't like the first game, but if the sequel is built from the ground-up and all of the (many) problems are ironed out or removed outright, I might consider giving the sequel a rental.

What do you think?

[/remember, guys, this game still isn't confirmed!]

I may just rent it, to see if it's any good. But in all honesty, I'm kind of not holding my breath -- I didn't care for the game much, so much so that I have kinda...neglected to finish it completely. The OOC-ness of some of the characters is just...so darned off-putting. I mean, the scene that showed Mickey had forgotten who Horace was...was really kind of heart-wrenching. I know he's sort of forgotten by Disney fans and such, but *MICKEY*? Someone who had been his friend, for years? Ouch. Granted, yes I know, this is really not the only problem I had with the game, it had plenty else wrong with it...the horrid camera system being one, but...yeah. That scene alone? Didn't win the game any brownie points with me. lol.
