Disney Infinity shows off new Monsters University screens
Disney has sent us a new batch of screens from the Monsters University portion of Disney Infinity, which are based on the upcoming Pixar sequel to Monsters Inc. These new shots show off quite a bit of the game's two modes -- story and sandbox. The story mode portions are strictly set to characters who are part of the theme, namely the stars Mike Wazowski and Sulley, as well as the university setting itself. As you can probably tell, the sandbox screens are the ones that are all over the place (The Cave of Wonders!), and involve multiple IPs frolicking about at once. Just like Toy Story 3: The Game's sandbox mode, I expect it to be a lot of fun. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.

12:00 PM on 05.18.2013 Preview: The Last of UsI was skeptical of The Last of Us. Despite all the hype and high promises, to me, it looked like post-apocalyptic Uncharted. I wasn't sold on the dynamic nature of how the game progressed, and as we all know, zombies have been literally done to death in the past five years. Then, I got a chance to actually play it. How many days until June 14th again?
