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.

Yet another great article! Keep them coming!
Can’t wait to see all of the cool things in this “Epic” game.
Still think in the wasteland should be “E” tickets didn’t see anyone else say this. Mickey finding old ear marked and tattered tickets.
Truly can’t wait
The game looks fantastic. Great job, Dave!!
I cant wait for Christmas so I can monopolize the Wii 😉
I cannot WAIT to play this game!!!
I’m pretty terrible at console games in general, but I could see this becoming one of those games I spend hours learning, like SMB3 on NES way back in the day. Pick me, pick me!
And a $350 giftcard? Pfft that seems like excuse enough for me to make a trip to a Disney park!
Missed the first drawing, sure would be nice to have game and giftcard for our upcoming trip to DW in the spring. Special 20th anniversary trip with the kiddos. DD9 is dying to play the game.
Can’t wait to play this game – hoping for 3rd time a charm! 🙂
It would be awesome to win this!
Our entire family would love to win this for Christmas!
I can’t wait to see what “rare” characters are in the game.
Great Game. Thought I could rent it and beat in a week, but alas finals happened. Cant wait to buy this game and play over Christmas break!
I am most excited for the DIS podcast cruise this coming Sunday! My first DCL cruise! To win this game would be the icing on the cake!
Congratulations to all the winners!
