Review: Disney Infinity (PS3)

It's difficult to begin a review of Disney Infinity without providing an ample warning to parents about the real-world action figure economy that Disney has created in some respects (and takes a few cues from the popular Skylanders series).

Besides a video game, there are real-world figures to collect that can be plunked down on the "Infinity Base" which interact with each other, along with optional/additional "Power Discs." Setting these items on the base makes them "live" in the game. The base set comes packed with Mr. Incredible (The Incredibles), Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean), and Sulley (Monsters U) and one Power Disc. In practicality, this means three fair sized campaigns ("Play Sets") and plenty of options when it comes to Toy Box mode.

E3 After-Action Report

It's been busy down here at E3. I've been running myself ragged, whipping from one side of the L.A. Convention Center to the other and back trying get the latest on what publishers and developers are going to release in the next year. While I couldn't hit everything, I got quite a bit, as well as talking shop with other industry professionals. Here's a taste of what I found this year, much of which I'll go into further detail in upcoming previews.
