Epic Mickey 2 Looks Almost Exactly as Epic as Epic Mickey 1
So… Epic Mickey 2. It’s two-player. Looks like Oswald can fly with his ears and Mickey can grab onto him; I haven’t seen such an innovative gameplay mechanic since… oh… Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Warren Spector says the game is a musical, although the trailer shows nothing of that. But at least the game will be coming out for the PS3 and Xbox 360, certainly not in a desperate attempt to sell more copies, but because Spector and Disney felt bad keeping such a magnificent game series from non-Wii gamers.
Eventually I’ll shed myself of this perception that I’m an unapologetic Nintendo hater, but it won’t be today.
