This actually looks... fun. It might be worth a look when the PC version eventually gets a "No real toys needed" patch so I don't have to waste money for the actual little toys in real life. Might be worth a look then.

ak93]Why is Disney using Nightmare Before Christmas characters... did I miss something?

Otherwise, looks interesting. Skylandery for sure. Not sure I'm a fan of the movement style. Like the cartoony art style, looks like really clunky movement/actions.

Of course this is a teaser...

Also, STAR WARS/Avengers please.
Nightmare Before Christmas is currently owned by Disney, and if I remember right, it was originally produced by Touchstone Pictures, which I think is a subsidiary of Disney that produces more of the not-so-kid-friendly stuff.

OT: I think this game will be made or broken by the gameplay. If it sucks, there would really be no point, unless you're really into the action figures...

No real toys?
Don't suppose there's one of those for Skylanders so I can understand my hate? (Momma always said give everything a chance before you hate it lol)
I have no idea, to be honest. Skylanders never drew my attention and I'm not even sure what platforms it's on. If it's got a PC release, I wouldn't be surprised if a crafty modder managed to make something like that.

The Jack Skellington and Jack Sparrow figures are gonna sell like hotcakes, because lets face it. Johnny Depp and the infamous Tim Burton movie both go hand in hand. Larry the Platypus might also sell out too.

Seems quite fitting to see Ralph in this.
Though I do like the idea, I don't think I'll get it.

Alright, apparently I missed the memo...

What exactly IS this? Do you buy the game then buy that special pad and start buying the disks/figures and keep doing so as more come out? If so, this is the biggest con since Genghis!

Now I'm not saying that it doesn't look interesting, just saying that that's a lot of money they could make off of this.

So... does this mean we might finally get Pixar movies in Kingdom Hearts?

Ah, so this is why I don't have Kingdom Hearts 3 yet
Probably the only reason my mode is currently set to 'cynical jerk' regarding this development.

So, I'm not the only one that can only view this with suppressed anger at the thought of this thing being the reason my Kingdom Hearts 3 is being delayed?

Anyway, who exactly is in charge of making this game? Because as much as I love Disney and Pixar, I can't say I've been too crazy about their video games. (Kingdom Hearts doesn't count, I believe Square Enix did most of the work on that, Disney just basically gave them the right to use their characters I think.) I doubt I'm gonna give this a try, probably meant for kids anyway, but we'll see.

Oh I really and truly hope so! I've always wanted to see The Incredibles, Monsters Inc. etc, in a Kingdom Hearts game.

Also, gotta love whenever these Disney topics come up (like with Star Wars) the first few comments is basically "Yeah yeah yeah, so does that mean this is gonna be in Kingdom Hearts or not?" haha.

Square Enix may have done the majority of the work with aid from Disney Interactive Studios, but Disney poured alot of dough into the KH Project. I have a feeling it's run dry recently and that's why only hand held titles are getting through and the big plot/game advancement in the form of the third installment is still on Ice.

So go ahead, be angry.

Not that I'm too pleased with Sqeenix right now either. FF13-3!? What the fudge are they thinking, is that game series really doing that well domestically or globally!? I just can't even brain on that one. That game was full to the brim with unlikable characters. I mean Kingdom Hearts is hokey as all hell and the plot is slightly (okay, extremely)contrived but at least they have fun with it, they're almost slightly aware of how batshit it all is, and the gameplay is way more fun than anything Final Fantasy has ever spat out.

to be honest, it'd be pretty funny if they included a kingdom hearts playset in this game

Sure while it is a blatant rip off from Skylanders but none the less I can easily see this being a huge profit from it.
