This looks so damn good.  What a shame it isn't on a proper game console.

I'm impressed with the idea more than the game so far.

Exactly what i was thinking. i'd rather they made a neat 2 1/2 hour hand drawn cartoon movie out of this, to celebrate the Disney legacy and history. With some neat special features on the blu-ray :) Imagine a hand drawn Disney cartoon, done old school!? So many kids have been born with only CGI and computer drawn Disney movies....

I think people might be getting too enamored by what we've seen so far; the game doesn't look that great.  I'm hopeful nonetheless.

Not everyone playing the game is a filthy pirate.  
(sorry for the poor lighting though)

I'm not very far yet, but I've had no problems with the camera thus far and the painting mechanics are decent.  Even early on you have to do some fairly imaginative things with them, it's not just a case of filling in blanks.  
 
The gameplay is very similar to something like Mario 64, so far I'm liking it a lot.  It's a great 3D platformer and the levels based on warped versions of Disney World are a real treat, though they'd definitely lose their impact if you're not familiar with Disney or the theme parks.

I did that with the PS3.
 
I regret nothing.

Agreed, its one of those games i want to like, but am iffy about. At least it will probably get cheap eventually like No More Heroes or Mad World, so we can give it a shot. Not like Nintendo developed games that stay expensive forever for some reason, (see Punch Out is still full price most places).

Is Walt Disney's frozen head in this game?
