Epic Mickey
I was debating whether to pick this up since I'd heard some less than stellar reports prior to the game's release (clunky camera, less-than-ideal controls) but now the reviews seem to be mostly positive, especially for fans of Disney, so I'll probably buy it some time this week.
Not sure if it was mentioned in this thread, but if you buy Epic Mickey at Kmart, you will get a $20 gaming coupon with it, good for purchasing another game at a later date. If you use your Shop Your Way Rewards card, you can get a $30 gaming coupon if you pick up the collector's edition. The coupons print out after your receipt. I believe this deal lasts through Saturday.

If you haven't picked this up yet, Amazon has the regular edition for $29.99. However, it's for today only, so you better get it if you haven't yet:

Scrap that idea entirely.SillySymphony wrote:I don't know how I'm gonna play this because 1) I don't own a Wii and 2) I can't afford a Wii.
But I have a plan...
I'll just buy the game and give to a friend for Christmas. Then for New Years Eve I'll invite myself over and play it on their system. BRILLIANT!
1)I got a Wii for Christmas and 2)The giver evidently could afford it.
So in consequence I finally bought Epic Mickey. So far, (I passed It's a Small World Boss Battle) I really enjoy it, even with it's faults, which I consider to be minor in comparison to the beauty of the game.

(I still got it for a good price: $39.99)

I noticed the Mouse March, but couldn't tell if it was sinster or not.
I love the side scrool adventures, best part of the game and Bog Easy section too.
The MickeyJunk Mountain climax is a bit challenging and makes you wish you'd had an invincibility code. But so far the game's a blast. Hopefuly we'll see a sequel

Some concept art's been uploaded by one of the artists. Shows some of the creepier stuff that didn't make it in between an extreme Thinner Mickey, some villain Oswald stuff and the paint and thinner system before the brush came into the picture

But I can see why it didn't make the final game.

When I got to that area I listened for it. I heard a short creepy, discordant version of the chorus. Loved it!LySs wrote:I FINALLY got around to playing this game and now I can't put it down!
Also, did anyone else notice a sinister version of The Mickey Mouse Club March that was playing during the Mickeyjunk Mountain part?
Start at 1:00 to hear the bit on YouTube.

A question concerning Epic Mickey
Was the game initially intended to be DARKER than the final product? I mean, look at the concept art!

I seem to remember a news story where the makers of the game originally ment for Mickey to full on turn into a rat when he was "bad Mickey." They ended up toning it down to what we have instead.
