This is old news for some of us, but to the uninitiated, a video game codenamed "Epic Mickey" is in the works for the Wii. I think this could be a potentially interesting and hopefully good game, if it is created like this. This could be the Disney equivalent of American McGee's Alice. Of course, very little is known about this game, so we'll just have to wait and see. I have a warning for anyone with a very sensitive childhood: some of the concept art is highly disturbing. I mean, look at Goofy. community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/37694738.html |

The rumors are rumors no longer! Epic Mickey is confirmed to be in development, exclusively for the Wii. What's more, the upcoming Game Informer issue cover has been leaked.  It goes without saying that artwork does not a good game make, nor is it cricket to judge a game so early. But if a game's worth were solely based on artwork, I would consider Epic Mickey to be truly special. It's true that the concept wasn't everyone's cup of tea, and I respect and understand that. But in my opinion, I am tremendously interested in this game. I really am looking forward to it. Even if "Epic Mickey" is kinda too generic of a title for me, it certainly won't affect my interest in the game if the name remains unchanged. |

I can see on the cover Small World and The Haunted Mansion. Makes me wonder if there will be levels based on the attractions?
Also will the main villan in the game be Miley Cyrus?

Haha! Well, there's a rumor that Oswald the Lucky Rabbit is the main villain in the game [END OF SPOILER], but I suggest taking that as a grain of salt until information is actually confirmed. |

Epic Mickey is once again in the spotlight. Actual screenshots, more concept art and character modules have been released. And all I can say is, "Sweet!" Granted, it looks like this game will not be as nightmarish/scary as the earliest concept arts suggested, but it nevertheless looks very promising. Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and the Mad Doctor are featured, and I really dig the retro Mickey design. The game itself sounds very interesting, and it's hinted that the player will have the choice to either make Mickey be mischievous and pranky, like in his earlier appearances in animation, or a true-blue hero. You can find the screenshots here. media.wii.ign.com/media/786/786198/imgs_1.htmlEpic Mickey is scheduled to be released about a year from now, in Fall 2010. |

E3 2010 revealed a lot about Epic Mickey. People who were hoping for a game based on the initial concept art will likely be very disappointed. But while the game's tone has shifted, I'm still very excited about it, and I liked what I saw at E3. Here are some video clips of Epic Mickey.
I saved the best video for last. Here it is!
SMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Well, December 30th is definitely just about the very last moment in the Q4 window. Let's just hope it comes out before then! I found something out just now. There will be a Collector's Edition release of this game. Epic Mickey Collector's Edition includes Wii console skins, a Wii remote skin, a 5" figurine, and a "making of" DVD. It's been said that this Collector's Edition will be $70. I'm certain that the price of the standard Wii game will be $50. www.gamespot.com/news/6274706.html?tag=latestheadlines%3Btitle%3B1 |

Yes! Give us an official release date already. I really need to know when this game will arrive, so I can make necessary preparations!

I'm looking forward to this. Hopefully it will come out here before the end of February, so I'll have enough money to buy it.  |

Spoiler alert.
I watched a new version of the introduction, where Oswald appears more innocent, and the Phantom Blot is replaced with the Mad Doctor. I must say, I'm a bit muddled by how much this game has changed during development!

Sorry for the double post but now we need rose to make a Epic Mickey skin with the Fantasmic Kingdom banner having a countdown to Epic Mickey's release date.

Hannah volunteered for character-based skins, and I think we should respect that. I think that would put too much work on her, if we coerced her to make a countdown theme.  |

Rated E? Seriously? I would have bet ten bucks that the game would've been rated E10+. But just E? Well... color me surprised!

Here's a video about Oswald in the game. It doesn't say anything we don't already know, but it still makes for a nice watch.
