Disney Epic Mickey Winners and Grand Prize Giveaway

There’s a buzz and level of excitement for the new Wii video game Disney Epic Mickey I haven’t seen since Pac Man Fever.  Did I totally date myself with that reference?  People were clambering to get a sneak peek at the game before it was released at the Festival of the Masters.  Our conversation with Epic Mickey creative director Warren Spector set a DIS Unplugged record for comments on a blog.  The game was launched Nov 30th at an event at the Times Square Disney Store complete with Dancing with the Stars champion Jennifer Grey, her co-competitor Kyle Massey, and a rare appearance by Steamboat Willie himself.  However, even though Epic Mickey has launched, we at the DIS Unplugged are not through giving away prizes.  Continue after the break to find out the winners of our two previous two giveaways and details for the Epic Mickey Grand Prize.

The reviews for Epic Mickey are appearing everywhere.  If you have not yet heard what people think, check out DIS Founder Pete Werner’s review of the game here.

The randomly selected winners of the first two copies of the Disney Epic Mickey Collector’s edition we gave away with our “Imagineer of Wasteland” post were comment #69 annegirl and comment #315 PeterPanFan22.

The randomly selected winners of the three copies of the Disney Epic Mickey Collector’s edition we gave away with the “Wasteland: Florida Project” post were comment #55 cobbler, comment #163 WorldWacky, and comment #226 Angela.

If you are a winner, you should have already received an e-mail asking for your full name and address.  If not, check your spam folders, and send me a reply.

Now on to the Grand Prize Giveaway, but first a brief musical interlude called Epiculous from D!tto using a mashup of sounds from the game to create a song.  Go ahead, give it a listen, the Grand Prize will wait…

Aaaaah, wasn’t that soothing?  Now what were we talking about?  Oh yeah, the Grand Prize.

We have one more copy of the Collector’s Edition of Disney Epic Mickey, courtesy of Disney Interactive Studios.  In addition to the game, the Grand Prize winner will receive a $350 Disney Gift Card.  Just in time for the holidays… Oh, boy!  All you need to do to enter is log in with your DISboards username and password and leave a comment on this blog.  We will randomly select our Grand Prize winner from all comments on this blog.

You have to leave a comment on this article; comments in other places such as Facebook or Twitter will not be official contest entries.  Comments will close on Thursday, Dec. 9th.  So get started, let us know what you’re most excited about regarding Disney Epic Mickey, the DIS Unplugged, the holidays, or whatever else is on your mind.  Good luck to everyone who enters.

Update December 9: Our Grand Prize Winner is comment #249 caribear.  Congratulations!

    I’ve sort of lost interest in my Wii in the last year, so I’m sort of excited about this game. Hoping it will bring back some of my interest. Right now, the Wii is just collecting dust.

    Watched an On Demand episode about the making of Epic Mickey and the backstory. Now I’m hoping Santa brings me this game and I don’t like games!

    OMG…having this game would be…EPIC. 😀

    My Wii is just literally jumping with excitement to play as the wonderful Mickey MOUSE. *Cue heroic music*. Aw gee, that sure would be nice. ;D

    Did anyone celebrate Walt’s b-day yesterday, bet most of us waltzed into the Disney parks cheering his birthday. *cough* I did. *cough*

    Anyhow, this is too awesome! 😀

    Ps…this game is making me waaay too anxious to get it! xD Why must Mickey be so EPIC!!

    I’m so disappointed. I thought my girls would be jumping all over this game but so far they’re not nearly as excited as I am. I’m hoping Santa brings me a copy of EM!

    As a huge game playing geek I can’t wait to get my hands on this game!!! This game has me thinking that I might need my own Wii since the kids hog the one in the living room. 🙂 Sure would be a wonderful birthday present for me and lessen the pain of getting one step closer to a new decade.

    I’m not a gamer but I am really excited about this game. I hope it’s fun for us amateurs too. I’m hoping my son and I can enjoy this together instead of me just watching him play like I usually do.

    I just love they are using Onward in the game. I love that they resurrected old characters.

    This game looks so great. I really want to run out and buy it now but have stopped myself from doing so until after Christmas. Need to spend the money on gifts first. I do plan on getting it after the holidays though and can’t wait to try it out.

    My kids really want this for Xmas. The GC would come in handy since we are leaving for the World in 24 days!!

    Second go round to win this. i RARELY win at contests. But I really want this. Mainly because Oswald The Lucky Rabbit is a big part of this and his relation to Mickey as his older brother.

    Ooh – momma needs a video game that looks like I can actually play it! Looks like it will be a blast to play and I can finally tell my kids, “It’s my turn on the Wii!”. I would love to win this game – and I guess I will have to let the other family members play – well maybe. The gift card would be awesome for our upcoming vacation in April. Thanks DIS – this site is really awesome.

    Had the chance to try Epic Mickey and found it very addicting once I figured out what to do. I’m not a gamer at all but found after a lot of trial and error I got it. My son said it acts pretty similar to a lot of the “old school” games he’s played. His daughter who is 7 tried to play and was not able to manage all of the actions but she and I found we acted as a great team. She really picked up details on how to play so she told me what to do and I manipulated the buttons. It was a lot of fun. Are you listening Santa?
