Hope we'll be able to do that at some point, it's much like Rayman's own watermark. A funny face pulling a funny face.

It's a huge recommend for every Rayman fan, it needs its own topic.
I actually have Epic Mickey, which reminds me, I haven't beaten it yet! And I haven't played it for a llllooooonnnnnngggggg time! (Blame Ocarina Of Time on the Wii for this! GOD DAMN FOREST TEMPLE WON'T LET FIND ANOTHER GOD DAMN SMALL KEY TO OPEN A GOD DAMN DOOR! But seriously, Ocarina Of Time is basically the only game I've been playing for a while now...except for Rayman 3 and Minecraft- MINECRAFT!!!)

Epic Mickey is (my opinion) the best platformer of the year. I won't post an whole review why, but you can check Gexup's Platinum Platformer Awards, as he shares the same thoughts as me :D

LOLZ. I don't need 2, I've got the game. Am I the only one who thinks that the critics judged Epic Mickey too harshly? I mean-Gamespot had it listed as one of the biggest let-down games of 2010!

I haven't played it to be honest, but I've heard very valid type of complaints; namely, some kind of character modification mechanic was abandoned for idiotic reason and paint was far less useful than initially said.

Epic Mickey was indeed a let down actually, even when I watched my BF play it I could see that it was not much different to most other generic platformers on the PS2 and Gamecube. It had nice cutscenes though from what I saw.

From what I’ve heard, the concept art is far superior to the game, largely thanks to the decision to make it a Wii exclusive.

Hmm, guys, I think epic mickey is overrated, I have it, and I'll admit it, it was fun, but sincerely, is not a game that you want to play again, it doesn't have replay value, you have to be completely lifeless to complete it with a 100% of all of the medals, because everything you do cannot be changed, and if you want to, then you have to complete the game because it restarts from the begining (you keep with the medals, I mean, is pretty much like Luigi's mansion BUT LONGER). I know everything in this game was supposed to be dark, and the initial idea was to make this game a nightmare for kids, I mean, look at this, totally creepy:

Image

Sadly, it looks that disney didn't like the idea that Warren Spector and his crew brought, so the game became less scary. And yeah...the game is dark... in a bad way: everything is SO DARK that you can't see clearly where you are.

What I mostly hate is that this game doesn't accomplish what it promises. Almost every character in this game was created exclusively for this game, not old scrapped or forgotten cartoons. Mickey doesn't remember Clarabelle or Horace? sure, they didn't work together at House of Mouse. This game totally lacks of that retro sensation that I was looking for when I bought the game. Also, a lot of characters are actually the same one, just with a different name, and the excuse is that "they're different versions of the same character", yeah, right.

The music is good, but is repetitive and it sounds so softly that you just ignore it, and the camera is a peace of bullfuck. The ending is so heartwarming (SPOILER, DON'T READ), I love it, but is sad to see that there's no point between being a good guy and a bad guy, because anyway oswald will be your friend at the end.

P.D: This game will have a sequel for sure, because the mad doctor escaped, and I'm going to buy it anyway, oh, and let's stop the off-topic

^Sorry, I had to edit some parts. And no, there's no Oogie Boogie, this game doesn't have a big cast of characters and that's why it sucks balls.

I'll be more specific, in the game you will only find mickey, oswald, robots, gremlins (They're like cages in rayman's world), clarabelle, horace, A LOT OF COPIES BASED ON GOOFY AND CLARABELLE THAT ACTUALLY DON'T EXIST BUT TRY TO MAKE YOU BELIEVE THAT THEY DID, a lot of copies of Peter, pirates from peter pan that actually aren't forgotten, walking cards and like only 6 different kinds of enemies. There's no more.

It isn't, it was based on The Phantom Blot, a forgotten comic book character from disney.

Sorry, no Nightmare before Christmas references in this game.

THAT IS JUST ADORABLE :lol:


Epic Mikey, the concept art got my hopes up so much. I also think it was a let down. Never acullay played the game but ive seen gameplay. I might still get it though and try it out for myself. when the price for it goes down.
