Fantasia: Music Evolved Announced (Disney/Harmonix, 360/XBO, Kinect, 2014)

If you read the thread, or even just the page you're posting on, it would help you avoid making uninformed comments like these. Just a thought.

Can people stop saying that this is one of the exclusive MS promised before Hix explodes.

I made that mistake and I'm lucky to be alive.

This is for your own safety gaffers

Honestly, I can see most people popping in here just after reading the title to say that...

I should totally get a tag for this.

This might sound crazy but this is a honest MEGATON to me. I cherish Fantasia and the idea of a Project Eden esque merge between harmonix and Disney is giving me butterfly's

You used to be cool.

After watching the trailer this is the worst thing I've seen since the Xbox One reveal.

I think it look interesting. The whole control the music with your body is a neat idea, can't wait to see what some people will come up with.

I don't see why so many people are upset. The game wouldn't have mainstream appeal with an all-classical soundtrack. Sure, it removes some fidelity from its source material, but it's a tradeoff.

Harmonix has a good track record, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

I read that first quote and I don't see why a 360/Xbone first party game doesn't necessarily count. All he says is that games on the 360 are not part of that 15 figure, but that doesn't rule out first party games that are cross gen.

That said this isn't a first party game so yeah its obviously not part of that figure.
 
I like the concept it's a shame you can't play through the actual movie or at least do “modern” interpretations of the classic tracks.
 
I just watched the trailer :(

This was not what my childhood self expected.
Very disappointing. I was hoping for epic Stravinsky controlled with all appendages. Sped up and slowed down based on my movements

I would be fine with ignoring this title if they weren't trying to market it under the name of Fantasia and phrases like "it's not an overt adaptation of the 1940s feature film, but a contemporary, interactive take on Fantasia's evocative melding of music and visual artistry.".

I literally facepalmed at the trailer.
 
Well, theres one of the 360Xbone exclusives, now what are the other 14? Kinect Fantasia sounds cool and all, but its still a casual Kinect game...



Edit::I guess this doesnt count lol...

I immediately saw the Fantasia inspiration, but I still need to see more before I decide. The thing I liked about Rock Band: you actually felt like you were rocking. Dance Central: You really felt like you were dancing and connecting to the music. For this: you'll have to use a little more imagination to feel like you're controlling the music like Mickey did in Fantasia.

Looks interesting, just need to see more...
 
Seems I'm not the only one who went from hype to "oh... Ok" after watching the trailer. Maybe they'll include some classical fantasia style music but I doubt it :/

That trailer was abysmal. Showed nothing but "cool" kids kinecticulating with enhanced visuals to make their actions seem more exciting. Picture them in a living room with wood paneled walls and worn shag carpet as the real versions of them (i.e. the uglier ones with the hand-me-down clothes with stains and actual tears as opposed to intentional "distressing") flail their flabby arms at the screen and kick over KFC buckets full of greasy fat and batter crumbs and empty Pepsi bottles as they try to get Sebastian to play Under the Sea correctly onscreen but he won't because this is kinect 1.0 and so it can't handle their caffeine and sugar-fueled spazzing.

This shit gonna sell.
 
I'm not trusting what any executive says on twitter, especially after MS's giant PR fuck up after the unveiling and executives contradicting each other. I'll wait till I see those 15 exclusives before I get too excited.

That being said, this looks really bad. Even if it isn't part of the 15 exclusives...

Wow that's quite a picture you just painted.
 
Wait what the fuck? Bruno Mars, Fun.? My raging boner is gone and has been reduced to a vagina. Fuck this motherfucking shit, don't ruin the best filmfranchise ever.

Except this is the Vice President of Microsoft Studios and nobody has contradicted it.

Just asked John Drake and he said that they are not part of the Microsoft conference.

Figures, hence showing the trailer now.
 
I have never gone from being so excited for a game to utterly disappointed. I'm waiting for more info but that trailer is such a letdown

Even if it isnt one of the "15" talked about titles for the Xbox one, this probably will show up. Whats a Microsoft conference without a little Ursher and music games. God speed to all of us, this E3 could be the last for many of us.

Even John Drake tweeted the trailer didn't show the good stuff. So blame whoever made the trailer for not showing off the good stuff.

I like MS's approach here of announcing some lesser things this week (Fable remake, Halo Spartan Assault, and this) so stuff like this won't waste anytime at the E3 conference next week.
