Yoink! Cant wait to hear more! I always really enjoyed the Mickey Mouse comics and their cast of villains and other characters. Would be great to see all them on show. Bit worried about how gothic and XXXTREME the designs will be though.

 

[Hero of Legend]

I'm hoping it'll be a full-3D platformer.

 

[Sadist]

Awaiting this game eagerly :]

 

[Darkpen]

This is gonna be so awesome D:

I hope this will fill the gap that the lack of a properly numbered KH game has left in my hunger for moar disney

 

[Xenomorph]

Concept art looks amazing. I have my doubts it will be as "acid educed crazy" as I want it to be in the final product though.

 

[John]

I hope Joe Juba receives an editorial mandate that limits him to using the word "compelling" in only 20 percent of his articles, as opposed to the current 90 percent.

They all could learn some new adjectives, really. And stop praising shitty games.

 

[Songbird]

Will this run through or be a part of the Eurogamer Expo? It's the same day but could be a coincidence..

 

[Black Rainbow]

I love Mickey Mouse. I can't wait to see how this turns out.

 

[Talon]

wow, lot of mickey mouse fans on gaf, never cared for this character myself

Were you born a jaded 30-year-old man? :lol

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Hope this is as good as Magical Quest (hey, I thought it was great). Considering it is Warren Spector, can't imagine being disappointed.

I'm gonna eat this up. I'm gonna go fucking wild if it looks anything like this concept art suggests.

On a side note I really like the new GI design.

 

[Danielsan]

wow, lot of mickey mouse fans on gaf, never cared for this character myself

The character itself doesn't do much for me (I'm more of a Donald Duck man myself) but I love the disney world.

Spoiler Alert: “Epic” November Issue Revealed

The rumors have been flying for months. From the outrageous (some actually thought we were bought by Disney, which was quite funny), to the right on (our forums pieced together all the clues from the last issue), the time has come to lay all rumors to rest. The November cover is indeed, Disney Epic Mickey, coming exclusively to the Nintendo Wii from Junction Point and Disney Interactive Studios.

This issue is the first of our highly anticipated redesign that subscribers should be receiving around October 12th.

There are a number of other highlights, including a Skate 3 first-look, an in-depth, seven-page report on the relationship between Hollywood and video games, interviews with executives from all three console manufacturers, and much, much more.

But the biggest news is our expanded coverage online that is available to all gameinformer.com visitors. Starting at 4PM CST today we will unveil the first companion piece to the magazine: an exclusive video interview with Warren Spector about his relationship with Mickey Mouse, including a portion of his giant Disney memorabilia collection that is housed at Junction Point. We will also have a photo-blog chronicling many of the outstanding pieces in his collection hitting at the same time.

This is just the beginning of our month of Mickey madness that will unfold over the next three plus weeks. So be sure to watch our Disney Epic Mickey landing page over the following month.

We don’t want to spoil what’s to come, but we have some amazing things in store, including screenshots, animations, and tons of concept art and music.

Watch for the issue in your mailbox over the coming weeks and make sure to come to gameinformer.com for the latest updates and news.

Oh yeah, and one last thing. All GI covers from here on out will feature a full wrap-around cover. Here is the Mickey cover in all its glory. The best part, and the reason we switched to these, is that the subscriber address label and the UPC will be on the back so it no longer clashes with our wonderful cover art.

[Haunted]

[MDSLKTR]

[RoboPlato]

That cover is smoking hot. Also, platform confirmed!

 

[schuelma]

That looks so amazing

 

[iceatcs]

Wow I love that artwork. I need that on my wallpaper.

Oh in before:

 

[KillerAJD]

That cover is BADASS! I want that as a wallpaper NOW!

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

Well, it was interesting while it lasted.

 

[SecretBonusPoint]

Mouse of War.

 

[Y2Kev]

Looks fascinating. The art looks different than the leaked art though. I like this better.

FUCK, damnit all.

 

[Cadaver Dog]

Looks freaking awesome.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Wow, the thing everyone expected was true but some people were in total denial about turns out to be true.

Color me shocked.

 

[Coin Return]

BOOOOO!!

 

[SecretBonusPoint]

Clutching the paintbrush says it all. Pretty clear why its going to be Wii-only.

 

[Shins]

hehehe

 

[Grecco]

Looks great. Love the wraparound covers too on GI.

 

[FrankT]

heh wii exclusive, 20 pages + incoming.

Well that could have been called from early on. All the hints were in the pics from the office. Anyhow, this does look rather interesting to say the least.

 

[Perfect Blue]

It's....so amazing. This game is quickly climbing up my most anticipated games list.

 

[Dragona Akehi]

So remember this thread the first time around? Keep that in mind.

 

[Midas]

:lol

 

[dyls]

Platform confirmed



Hope there is some awesome use of the pointer.

Spoiler

suck it, haters

 

[Penguin]

The artwork is nice, but curious how it looks in motion, and guess most of those rumors were correct.

 

[OnPoint]

I seriously can't wait for Epic Mickey. Haters be damned.

 

[beast786]

seems like i will actuallly be buying a wii game

 

[TheChillyAcademic]

Wow, didn't see that coming. I have no qualms in saying that I'm certain this game will be fantastic!

 

[GWX]

FUCK. YES.

Also, exclusive or not, just the fact that it's coming for a console I own is FUCK AWESOME.

 

[black_vegeta]

It's going to interesting to see how this game turns out.

 

[itsinmyveins]

So remember this thread the first time around? Keep that in mind.

I know people got banned, but what were they saying? I mean, you can't possibly hate on this game so I know it's gotta be something else.

 

[TunaLover]

Wii Exclusive oh snap!
How will people excited for this title explain that suddenly it sucks now? :lol

 

[FoneBone]

I seriously can't wait for Epic Mickey. Haters be damned.

The only hate so far seems to be about the platform.

 

[Hypereides]

Cant wait for the official screenshots

 

[Princess Skittles]

Someone tinypic the cover. ;___;

 

[Zoe]

I'm disappointed but not surprised in the least. Warren Spector was very much about innovation during his game design course, and it was pretty obvious how much he liked the Wii.

 

[avatar299]

So Good....

So...damn good

 

[Oneself]

I like the art, it's always interesting to see another vision of something well known .... too bad (for me) that it's Wii exclusive..

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

The only hate so far seems to be about the platform.

Seems pretty reasonable. Interesting game becomes uninteresting due to platform, nothing strange about that.

 

[Xenomorph]

Sigh. Looks like that concept art won't be realized...

 

[Wolves Evolve]

If there's a god, they will incorporate some elements of Destino in there somewhere.
