Not the reveal they had in mind, but effective nonetheless.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Maybe it won't be shit this time.

Maybe they'll use more of the grimdark concept art WHICH IS WHY EVERYONE WAS INTERESTED IN THE FIRST PLACE this time.

Never played the first. I heard the camera control sucked.

The first one was a relative success critically, although the results are varied. Some like it a lot, while others were a little more reserved. However, I have yet to find one truly negative review.

Not interested. The product we got the first time was wildly inferior to what we were expecting.

I don't really care how much better they make it over the first one - frankly if they go with the same shallow binary morality bullshit the first game tried to pull, Warren Spector can get fucked for all I care.

I actually loved the first one immensely; the game was a fun platformer and the camera controls weren't bad enough for someone to just quit the game. I will agree with BL though about how shallow the morality system was, they could really do with putting some more effort into that this time.

So why hasn't anyone posted any news on this game, or the 3DS spinoff?

Epic Mickey 2 lead platform Wii with 3DS version confirmed

The Wii version is calle "The Power of Two" and will feature drop in/drop out co-op play, among other things. The real meat and potatoes, though, is what the 3DS version, aptly titled "The Power of Illusion" entails:

Epic Mickey 3DS is a follow up to Castle of Illusion

You read that right, here are some of the game's features:

Quote:
 
-The witch from Snow white is the main villain again
-There will be worlds from all eras of Disney, From Peter Pan to Tangled
-Scrooge Mcduck is in the game
-Characters you 'save' will appear in a fort of sort that acts as a HUB when you progress on, like Scrooge McDuck or Peter pan will be in it and decorate the fort.
-Oswald will be in it along with Minnie


Here's some more on the matter:

http://ds.about.com/b/2012/03/26/epic-mickey-power-of-illusion-preview-courtesy-of-nintendo-power.htm

So, I take it people MIGHT be having second thoughts about wanting either of these games now? :P

I still haven't played the first one and I have no intention of playing these two until then.

I was too confused about the way the game presents itself, so I never played it.

It's a decent game, I think both of you would like it. Explorative platformer with emphasis on problem solving to get around. Think 3D Mario game but with more elements from say...uh...Zelda, I guess? I'm sure you can score it in a bargain bin or something, so if you happen to come across it, give it a shot. :3

Actually, we already have a copy. I've just been too busy playing other games to try it myself, outside of a few instances where my sister wanted my help because glitches.

Junction Point closing down because Power of Two's sales were crap.

I don't get how the sequel does worse when it was released on four different consoles. =/
