When we think of Cartoons the ones that come to my head are the classics Looney Tunes, Scooby Doo, Disney. But we all know that when Cartoons are made into games they usually don't turn out well. We seen many games spawn from Looney Tunes and Disney though most of them were not worthy of even playing much let alone adding to your collection. but one game is going to change that and its causingin contraversy. before you read any further think and see if you can guess who this is. He is the most Iconic and well known cartoon character still popular today. He first appeared in 1929.
If you didn't guess its Mickey Mouse, from his first appearance in the 1929 cartoon called "Steamboat Willie" he has change over the years to the mickey that we now know. Mickey has had his fair share of games My favorite Being Mickey's Magical Quest for the SNES. but his new game has taken a turn of contraversy between people, Its created by the same person that brought us games like System Shock and Deus Ex. Some are saying that Mickey is going evil, unlike his what us Kingdom Hearts fans know him as the one who wields the keepblade and fights against evil. The Developers said that they are not trying to make mickey evil they want to take him back to his roots the way he was in "Steamboat Willie" and "Crazy Plane" Mickey's traits of that early version were divided into two other characters, Goofy got his Naive and funny side, Donald took over his Revengeful and angry side. while mickey kept the trait of his nice and sweet side that we've all grown to know.
So where does this story tie in. For beginner's it focuses around Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. if your like me you read that and instatly thought who the **** is Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. after reading the article in Game Informers I found out. Oswald was created by disney and was there first creation before mickey came around though he never really got his chance in limelight "Steamboat Willie" stole that from him. So this sorcerer named Yensid (spells Disney backwards) creates a world for Oswald to roam in which is set up like a famous theme park. The Phantom Blot invades and mickey has the abilty to create and destroy this world. so it give the player the option of weather they want to follow Mickey's early miseveous past or his attitude the world sees him now. either way it sounds promising as the game try's to mix elements of Disney and a Tim Burton Movie. the way you react sounds like it will change the outcome of the game. you can expect more as I learn more but I'm like the way this game is going and I'm really wanting to get it.
