    Kirby's Epic Yarn

    Game » consists of 10 releases. Released Oct 14, 2010

    Kirby's first console outing since Kirby Air Ride sees our lovable pink hero using the power of magical yarn, rather than his usual inhaling abilities, to explore a world made of arts and crafts.

    Anyone else curious why the games were shown so close to each other when they have such similar names? Don't the marketing people try to avoid stuff like that? Which game is everyone more excited for?

    I agree. Epic Mickey just reminds me of Mario Sunshine.

    I haven't seen much about both, but  Kirby's Epic Yarn easily has the most unique art style of any game this year at E3.

    I read a comment about how Epic might become the new "Super".

    Epic Yarn although Epic Mickey is good too. Also why isn't this a poll?

    Epic Mickey looks amazing. I saw the Gamespot stage demo and that game has a lot more going on than I had thought. Really clever stuff.

    Epic Mickey looked really good in the press conference but man Warren Spector made it sound mind numbingly boring.

    Kirby's Epic Yarn just looks so different than most everything else offered up at this year's E3 that it gets my vote.

    Thank goodness no debates like this arose from games with the word "Super" in it.

    I'm really interested in both, but I'd much rather play Kirby's Epic Yarn. Mickey is so two decades ago.

    Epic Yarn is explicit with its mind-numbing cuteness, but the yarn Kirby wields is hardly epic. Mickey's is as epic a tale as a Disney license allows, I mean, there's a steampunk, robot Goofy.

    Epic Yarn has had my full attention since I first saw it, but Epic Mickey is something I had largely ignored until just recently, as I'm really not into Disney. However, the recent videos about Epic Mickey have sparked my interest to the point where I may rent it then buy based upon that rental.
     
    Epic Yarn is a purchase for-sure. I just need the money to get it and the time to play it.

    I'd rather play Epic Mickey.  Epic Yarn looks adorable, for sure.  But I'm a HUGE Disney fan, including the old stuff (Oswald included...)
