EPIC Mickey

There is all this buzz about the next Mickey video game called EPIC Mickey but what gives? Since when did Mickey send game nerds salivating for the next installment? Then it hit me. Digging thru my memories I vaguely remember a Mickey video game on the Sega Genesis. I even remember it being fun and recall a bunch of my macho friends coming over after school for a rousing game thru Disney's vast story lines and landscapes.

This game promises to take all that, multiply it by a factor of 10 and basically leave you in a pile of drool and piss from not moving for days. WARNING: For once your hand will cramp up from something other than touching yourself. Read the official description below. I mean if that don't make you cream then something's wrong with you. I suggest you go get checked. Originally slated as a Wii exclusive, the rumormill is churning with multi-platform suggestions.

oswald-the-rabbit-thumb-150x179.jpgEpic Mickey is set in a world where the old and forgotten Disney creations are cast into a dark wold of "broken machines and bitter personalities". This world is under the control of Oswald the Rabbit (first appearance 1927), Walt Disney's first character.

Oswald hates Mickey because of his success and is looking to get revenge for years of unpopularity. So he sends his minion, The Phantom Blot (first appearance 1939), to destroy Mickey and the cartoon world (seeing the world in turmoil would make me happy if I was a forgotten cartoon too).

The Phantom Blot uses a sticky black ink "that makes colors run and fade" to pollute the beautiful world. And as you're probably guessing, it's Mickey's job to stop Oswald and return the world to it's normal, vibrant times!

This is cool! I bet not all will accept this game whole heartedly but for an avid gamer who loves Mickey like me, this is the best thing that can happen. It's a sad thing though that it's exclusive to Wii but who knows in the future it will be available in other consoles or it can be an online game like Aion Online and Warcraft.
