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.

Full disclosure, when I first booked my appointment to check out Motiga’s Gigantic most of the folks I talked to wondered why I wanted to check out “yet another” MOBA title. Due to the insane success of free to play MOBA titles such as League of Legends and Dawn of the Ancients 2, designing the next great MOBA has become a quest of sorts for developers everywhere, and for good reason, success means a whole lot of cash and quite a bit of glory. After about five minutes with Gigantic I was blown away with how unique a specimen it really was and may have actually had more Team Fortress in its DNA than League of Legends. Gigantic is a tactical class based action game at its core, and it turns out its core is made of gold.
