Thanks shadow. Updating the op with that link. Also linking Game Informers "Epic Mickey" Launch site. We should have more info on the 9th!

This game has the sweetest concept art I've seen in ages, maybe ever.. I really gotta keep my eye on this one.

lately Wii starts to have an appeal on me with tales of graces and now this

wonder what there is gonna be on friday......

Probably either more interviews, behind the scenes work, or more concept art. I doubt we'll get any screenshots before the magazine is released. No chance in hell we'll see any video.

Man that concept art is just amazing.
My personal feeling is that the gameplay will be similar to Okami and/or it will have a very strong focus on the IR pointer for gameplay. I also notice Mickey is carrying a brush which leads me to believe that will be his main weapon, hence the Okami and IR pointer idea ;)  That is also why I think it is a Wii exclusive, the gameplay demands it. Otherwise they would milk this and release on all platforms.

Wow, it really is gonna be a post-apocalyptic Disney Okami game!  Holy hell!

Not just a brush though. You get to use paint thinner! So instead of Okami's "celestial brush" that has magic powers over nature, you actually draw and paint and erase like a cartoon artist. I'm not knocking Okami, because I think both ideas are great. This one's more real and tangible art craft style instead of heavenly sun god magic.

Unless, of course, it ends up being some really bad Okami clone with the best art design ever, but I don't even think that would be a bad thing with that awesome art design and plot.

I think the game will be about Mickey somehow being in a painting. Just look at how painted everything looks.

@KungKras, click that link ShadowD posted a few posts up. It explains the story and the paintbrush.
