Noticed no one posted anything regarding Epic Mickey crap, so I might as well.
Source (screenies inside)
Too lazy to throw on the screenies (feel free to post them), so they're in the source. Anyway, apparently it's a platformer/ARPG (which I didn't know, lol) and is set for release soon (IGN says Q3 2009, but I doubt it). Outside of Mickey Mouse looking like possibly the most demented video gaming character ever, this looks very good.
QUOTE said:Mickey Mouse might be one of the world's most recognisable icons but, these days, he's more corporate figurehead than lovable rogue. Putting the personality back into Disney's most beloved mascot has been top of the company's To-Do list in recent years and, it transpires, the reason we finally found ourselves in an East London warehouse for the grand unveiling of the hugely ambitious Epic Mickey.
When you've got such grand designs, you need some serious talent to turn your vision into reality. Enter Warren Spector, the man behind classic games like Thief and Deus Ex, and the team at Junction Point Studios. As self-proclaimed animation obsessive Spector admits, the chance to delve through Disney's enormous archive was almost reason enough to accept the challenge, and that's exactly where Junction Point turned for its initial inspiration. It quickly became clear that Mickey's early years were also his finest moments with the mouse a cantankerous mischief maker, rather than the soulless corporate mascot he is today.
