Ah, I didn't know that thanks for informing me. It's not really complaining I like to call it ranting XD because I am just fed up with them not giving it their all spite it's not fully dependent on actual Disney Corporations [If they are called by that]. Then they should do something to save their good name and tweak/fix the Game is all.
On the other hand, I know they have some cartoons and that's the good stuff (Which I did list) but mostly Disney Channel, Disney Mornings, Disney Live, ect. are all packed with just reality shows. Even the humor of them dies out because it's the same phony jokes. Actually, in truth most of the reality shoes have no meaning they just have a plain stupid ending to them that's like karma or something, it really gets on my nerves so this game is like putting Cartoons in a bad position. Just my personal opinion.

Disney Chancel is sort of Nickelodeon of the modern era. For something good there is something bad and there are a lot of bad live action series but sense I dont watch them then I wont comment on them

why are the first 3 guys on probation? I get the first guy for his "first" comment but the other two?

Some kinda complex timer system, possibly including lots of gears, pulleys, and water clocks.
You get probation if you comment before watching the video.

that sounds pretty stupid but smart on the other hand

Edit: double post somehow. sorry

Man I was actually looking forward too epic mickey as well for some reason...

Kingdom Hearts! <3

Yahtzee brings up a really good point near the end.

How relevant IS Mickey Mouse to kids today? I don't have kids but my brother has three and I don't think I've heard them ever mention Mickey. I don't have the Disney Channel but I understand it has gone from the disney cartoon channel that it used to be to whatever tween drama/star is hot at the time. Outside of Kingdom Hearts, is Mickey really that big a children's icon anymore?

I think Mickey's been replaced by Spongebob.

QFT

...and that's a bit frightening if you think about it.

Good review.

Now that you mentioned at the end Mr. Croshaw, Disney is pretty much toe to toe with Dreamworks SKG. Hardly anyone remembers Mickey Mouse.

I still have fond memories that Capcom help make Magical Quest for the SNES.

Ok, I had to pause at 3:16
(Gosh, that's rather appropriate)
to get my head around "The camera is like the working class. If you can't control it, it will plot to destroy you."

That's either the most profound or the most surreal thing I've heard this year, I think.

 

[KuwaSanjuro]

I know you'll probably rip it a new one but I would really like to see a Zero Punctuation on Chrono Trigger, my favourite game of all time. Its because I really like the retro reviews. Please if you do it go easy on it.

That cartoon panel is pretty dark. Makes me wonder if Walt was still alive would this have lived up to that kind of potential

 

[Zanaxal]

Bring back old yahtzee from the cave

That whole plush mascot thing is just wrong. Just for people who enjoy giant stuffed animals i guess.(girls only)

 

[EchetusXe]

haha, good job I won't ever play that game else I'd be making sure that every little piece of every little level were either evil or good (or whatever the concept is). Could not stand a half-half job.

 

[Andrew Sepulveda]

"kindom heart is more egy than this"

I've got a copy of the Communist Manifesto if you want to borrow it.

 

[duchaked]

so hilarious, and so true...

and wow he was so nice to the Wii! that caught me off guard

 

[Ulquiorra4sama]

I loved this review. It's good to see people finally tearing down the walls that are sheltering Disney so much that they think they don't even have to try anymore...

 

[Belbe]

I see lots of others noticed the ipod imp ad at the end too, that's more Epic than this game it seems. First time I really enjoyed seeing an advert in my video that I enjoyed lol.

A copy, Comrade? All property is theft anyway.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

A Mickey Mouse comic where he actually tied to commit suicide? How much you wanna bet they'd never get away with something like that nowadays?

That being said, I'd still play this game despite the lack of dark/edgynesss, 'Cause it does have an interesting take on the Disney Mythos.

(And even if it did, I'd play it anyway because I like when well-known/generally kiddy stuff like Disney gets a darker reimagining/twist. Dunno why, I just like the idea.)
