When people find out that members of NA live in Orlando Florida they often assume that we live inside the Epcot ball and skip merrily through tomorrow land on a daily basis. While the assumption is incorrect (although Scott would gladly give up everything to live in that ball), Disney is still a huge part of our world. When we discovered this morning that Harmonix is working on a brand new Disney themed rhythm game by the name of Fantastia: Music Evolved, we were hardly surprised. While details on the game are still scant, here is what we DO know. Fantasia: Music Evolved will work on both the Xbox 360 as well as the new Xbox One. There will be a narrative of sorts as players take on the role of Yen Sid (Disney spelled backwards) to weave some spells and “unleash your musical creativity.” The trailer below makes it appear as though players will be able to actually control the tone and tempo of the music along with the graphical representation of those tones and tempos. In terms of music, Harmonix stated that a wide variety of musical genres will be represented, which sounds good to us. We’re happy to see some true innovation coming to the Kinect, and it looks like we’ll be waving our Wizard arms around some time in 2014.
Disney Interactive and Harmonix are excited to announce Fantasia: Music Evolved for Kinect on Xbox 360 and Xbox One!
Become the new apprentice of legendary sorcerer Yen Sid, and explore and transform magical worlds by unleashing your musical creativity when Fantasia: Music Evolved releases in 2014.

As soon as I began to play the original GOW I realized that there was something about the game’s blend of action and tactics that set it apart from all other games in the genre. Over the years I’ve beaten both GOW campaigns with a wide various friends, family, and strangers, and still find the experience to be deeply satisfying. While some of the systems introduced in the original GOW were still in their relative infancy, the overall Gears experience was always spectacular. After playing a lot of Gears 3 over the past week I can honestly say that the Gears 1 and 2 were just an appitizer for the feast that is Gears of War 3.
As if we needed more to sweeten the deal, EA revealed early this morning that they’re going to reward their loyal customers by way of some brilliant cross-marketing. Similar to their Dead Space 2/ Dragon Age 2 mash up, people that show some love to Kingdom, will receive some in game Mass Effect 3 goodies and vise versa .
Epic Games had a huge presence at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con with both Gears of War: Judgement, and Fortnite showing off their goodies. Until this year’s SDCC, we knew very little of what Fornite was actually about, how it would look, or really, how in the heck it would play. Well, we have some great news for you, Fortnite looks super-slick and has the capacity to be more fun than any of us really deserve.
