Anyway, imagine my giddy reaction when Epic Mickey got a November 30 release date. Squee!
From early synopses of the game, it seems a bit dark and more of an adventure than just mindless repetition. This is a good thing. I like games with compelling storylines. I wish it were on the Xbox or the PS3 though ... the video resolution on the Wii is totally subpar. The desire for motion control is a nonsense reason to make it Wii-exclusive ... the PSMove and Kinect have removed that barrier (excuse?) from game programming now. I'd prefer to have a controller-based game with high-quality video, folks.
And now I'm even giddier (more giddy?) that Hot Topic has started releasing clothing and accessories to accompany the game.
Here's a few cool things that caught my eye. I might have to fight the mall crowds this weekend to pick myself up something new (and likely shiny).
The first thing I noticed, via today's Stitch Kingdom email, was the Epic Mickey necklace ($12.00).
The neckace comes in both the basic black and the art scene (what I posted above). It's a little big for my usual tastes, but it sure is cool. It would be a great accessory to wear with a simple crew neck black (or the right shade of blue) sweater. Wonder how many comments I'd get at my uber-conservative workplace about that necklace?
The next thing is a key cap. It goes over the top of a regular key. I think I'm going to grab one of these for my office door key. It's a whopping $4.99 ... a small price to pay for a giddy smile while at my cubicle farm, no?
Finally, no 1337 Gamerz would be found dead without a totally nerdy novelty t-shirt. Of course, Hot Topic never disappoints ... they have two really cute shirts. Prices vary (extended sizes are more expensive), but are about $25 each.
