Let's kick off the evening with a double shot of Epic Mickey news. First, a quote from designer Warren Spector from an interview with 1UP: "I don't do anything that isn't extensible. In my head, I've got two more planned."
Whoa whoa whoa. An Epic Mickey trilogy? But what about Duck Tales? "In the business world of reality, those games have not approved, and who knows if we'll ever see them." You had me there for a second, Spector. If the game stays true to the original vision, and plays decently, this could be a very good thing.
And before we get too far ahead of ourselves, The Cut Scene has an interesting tidbit about Mickey's dialogue in Epic Mickey. As Spector puts it, "I made the creative decision that characters wouldn’t talk in the Cartoon Wasteland."
"If I’m trying to re-introduce this character to an audience, there are certain connotations with that voice that I’m going to have a hard time overcoming." This was one of the few things that I couldn't stop thinking about when the game was announced.
Speech bubbles were the way to go for this project, if you ask me.

Now if only some franchises thought about that for once...
Mickey is mute? A trilogy? Jordan Grim Devore reminding everyone the game doesn't look like the header?
Geez. Can someone just leak some gameplay already so I can know what to do with my heart?
But I do hope they use mumble tech.
What the hell does that sentence even mean?
Imagine that on the PS3... Even a "gameplay over graphics" guy like myself can't help but wonder what that would be like. So awsome...
Take the hint for the Sonic franchise Sega
Took the words right out of me mouth.
Spector, please don't take the Peter Molyneux path to hype your game.In addition, it's hard for gamers to get excited about Epic Mickey when we haven't even seen a trailer. Also, the first batch of screen shots weren't impressive by any means. I'm still interested in the game's plot and concept though.
Disney might have not chosen his successor for the role yet.
Additionally, I find the storage space argument to always be asinine at best. Go look at some of your favorite games for PSOne on PSN - some of them never even came close to maxing the CD format.Same is true for DVD and Blu-Ray, might I add. Then you have DS and PSP games that can and do cram in a fair bit of voice acting.
Why does anyone even bother to resort to the storage argument?
You can check out some gameplay around the web I believe. I don't know where I saw it, but it exists. Looks very cool to me.
lol at storage space arguments.
