Looks like Epic Mickey 2 may be in development

According to an anonymous Dtoid reader, Epic Mickey 2 is currently being gauged by Disney via online marketing. There are a lot of specifics here, which is always nice. That doesn't mean that the game is definitely going to happen, but it sure looks like the development of Epic Mickey 2 has gone well beyond the "purely theoretical" stages. There are several potential box arts here, as well as some of the titles being considered for the game (including Epic Mickey 2: Return of the Mad Doctor, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, Epic Mickey 2: Mystery on Mean Street, and just Epic Mickey 2).

If this goes to Ps3, I hope it comes bundled with the first game and you have an option to use dual shock instead of the move

DrRichtofen4632d ago

That would be really cool, if they were to do such a thing I hope the first one is in HD.

OllieBoy4632d ago

I'd buy a PS3 version for sure.

kingdoms4632d ago

It's the only console you own. So if you get the game assuming it even comes to PS3, it will be for sure on PS3 LMAO

sarshelyam4632d ago

I don't know how you could earn a "Disagree" on your comment. It makes too much sense!

I wholeheartedly agree that if this goes to PS3, the first should be included as well. Such a great game that hit a platform in its waning years.

Darksydephill will be mad as hell

OhMyGandhi4632d ago

The first game looked interesting.
too bad about the camera though.

Mario4life4632d ago

id buy a wii u version, it would allow for some cool painting tools by adding in some okami like painting

sarshelyam4632d ago

Yeah, I'm a bit confused why they'd release a Wii version with the Wii-U right around the corner. Perhaps it will?

SuperStrokey11234632d ago

installed base... isnt that hard to figure out

sarshelyam4632d ago

There isn't going to be much of an install base come the time the sequel hits (next year), when a new console is hot on its tails, if not out before.

Install base means little if the interest is nonexistent, or the migration has already happened.

Malcopunch4632d ago

Epic Mickey was a good idea but it falled flat on it's face

pcz4632d ago

in what way did it fall flat on its face?

and have you played it?

A Look Back at Disney Games on PlayStation Handhelds

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "There are few brands out there that have anything like the appeal and recognition of Disney. Thanks to decades of beautiful and critically acclaimed animated films, the company is a household name that has expanded beyond just movies to include a variety of other ventures, including videogames. Disney has also grown its lineup considerably in recent years by acquiring Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars (although for the purposes of this article, I’ll only be covering Disney/Pixar output).

Thanks to their broad audience, Disney games usually show up on every viable platform out there, meaning that despite the brand’s affinity with Nintendo’s younger-skewing audience, both the PSP and Vita received a number of titles throughout their lives. Some of this was through Disney's own developer/publisher (Disney Interactive Studios), but the firm also licensed out its IPs for other companies to try their hand at – with somewhat mixed results."

Xbox Game Pass Announces New Games - Alien: Isolation, The Walking Dead: Season 2, and More

Xbox Wire: "It’s true, constantly bringing more games to you is kind of our schtick at Xbox Game Pass, so let’s talk about the journey these latest additions took to get from us to you! We started with the customary good luck ceremony, during which we wrote heartfelt haikus in tribute to each game, and the social media team sang their rehearsal solos for the Xbox Game Pass: The Musical."

Nice adds. I like how their site has fun with the announcements.

lxeasy1898d ago

I heard really good things about the Alien game. Gonna check out. Another win for Gamepass

mark_parch1898d ago

alien isolation is a great game. I love how they stayed true to the original film with the late 70's sci fi vibe.

Estevez1898d ago

Alien: Isolation has the highest number of players who never finished the game - of all the games... this is why I never bothered with it...

gam3r_4_lif31898d ago

Alien isolation is great. It just needed some editing. If it was about 30% shorter it woukd have been a masterpiece

gam3r_4_lif31898d ago

@Estvez yeah because it got very repetitive and rather than them wrap it up and bring it home they added another 10- 15 hours of nothing new. But would defo check it out on GP if you never played it, it really is faithful to look of the movie and still looks great now

Greedsin1898d ago

It's a fantastic horror game, the Alien AI really keeps you on your toes.

I agree lots of great games.

Bnet3431898d ago

One of the few bright spots for the Xbox One is the Xbox Game Pass. I am waiting for them to be the Netflix of gaming. Even for new titles. That's the goal. That would be so awesome. That's like their main selling point.

Bronxs151898d ago (Edited 1898d ago )

The native 4k triple A 3rd party games like far cry 5, shadow of tomb raider, red dead 2 and metro exodus is also a selling point to me. and backwards compatibility with some 360 and OG Xbox games get free 4K patches like half life the orange box and KOTR. Also More and Better free games with gold and you actually keep the Xbox 360 free games forever. And they offer pretty good ones I’ve filled out my gaming library with good titles like South Park stick of truth for example. The controller and 4K blu Ray playback are nice as well.
And while they don’t have the best game library of all platforms there are still pretty great games that can’t be played on a Nintendo or Sony system like games in the halo Forza gears franchise and new games like ori and the blind forest quantum break from remedy sunset overdrive from insomniac. Plus looking forward to new games from ninja theory.

But your right game pass is a big plus. Getting titles like doom, hitman, shadow of the tomb raider, rise of tomb raider, fallout 4, rocket league, alien isolation, resident evil revelations, plus all first party Microsoft games is a damn sweet deal!

Greedsin1898d ago

It's shocking how much speed Game pass has picked up recently. The selection of new games is great so far.
