Disney Interactive Studios has announced that Mickey Mouse will be taking his adventures beyond Kingdom Hearts. Along with Junction Point, Disney is developing a new platform-adventure gaming starring the 81-year old anthropomorphic rodent.
In Disney Epic Mickey, the mouse pulls an inFAMOUS and unwittingly devastates the world of the Cartoon Wasteland, where old and retired cartoon characters go – which ironically sounds like Florida without Disneyland.
Mickey stumbles into this realm and must choose to be a hero or to just get the hell out as fast as he can, since being the mouse that inadvertently rained destruction on this world he isn’t exactly popular. Sounds good, especially with the combat style being approached from the 4th-wall breaking idea of paints and thinners. I’ve always wanted to erase Donald Duck anyway.
So playing Fable as Mickey Mouse, huh? Sounds interesting. We’ll keep an eye on it for you.
Disney Interactive Studios has announced recently that there will be a Disney Sing It: Pop Hits, available to the masses. With the game being a multi-platform karaoke style title letting everyone the chance to give it a try. There will be a lot of familiar songs and expect singing tips along side vocal lessons from Tiffany Thornton herself.
On the Wii, Playstation 3 and Playstation 2 consoles, players will have the opportunity to match their talents with the performers which includes master recordings and popular music videos from global fan favorites. READ MORE »

Break out the three-dimensional glasses: Walt Disney announced Tuesday that it will release the computer-animated hits “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2″ as a 3-D double feature on Oct. 2.

Miley Cyrus has issued a statement regarding the photograph that surfaced of the teenager doing the “slant-eyed’ poser”. The photo shows Cyrus, her boyfriend Justin Gaston and a group of friends pulling their eyes back as if they were mocking someone of Asian descent.
The Disney star responded on her official fan site, MileyWorld. MTV News has a transcript of her response.
Cyrus wrote, “I’ve also been told there are some people upset about some pictures taken of me with friends making goofy faces! Well, I’m sorry if those people looked at those pics and took them wrong and out of context! In no way was I making fun of any ethnicity! I was simply making a goofy face. When did that become newsworthy?”.
“It seems someone is trying to make something out of nothing to me. If that would have been anyone else, it would have been overlooked! I definitely feel like the press is trying to make me out as the new ‘bad girl’!”.
According to MTV News, Cyrus feels as though she is a new target for scrutiny since the spotlight has faded on the infamous Britney Spears. “I feel like now that Britney is back on top of her game again, they need someone to pick on! Lucky me! Haha,” she wrote.
“You guys know my heart and know the most important things to me are my friends, family, fans and God! In no way do I want to disappoint any of you! But when I have made mistakes in the past, I feel like I’ve owned up to them and apologized”.
Cyrus concluded with an appeal to the people and media. “Anyway, I really wish everyone would stop focusing on my personal life and get back to focusing on what I love! Music and acting! Hopefully, I will be touring again this fall! Yayy! It will be a nice change to be back out on the road again! xoxo Blessings”.
Selena Gomez is setting the record straight about her song “I’m Sorry.” The Disney show actress is dismissing rumours that her single is about beau Nick Jonas, reports People magazine.
“It’s definitely not about Nick Jonas,” Gomez, 16, tells PEOPLE. “It’s about someone back home in Texas. When I read it, I was like, ‘Oh no this gossip has to go away!’ I haven’t known the Jonas Brothers for that long, but I’ve gotten really close with all of them.”
The actress starts in the hit Disney show ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ and has just started work on her album.
“This year I’m finally in the process of starting an album. It’s something that I’ve been wanting to do for a long time and I also want to take my fans through that journey so I’ll definitely do a whole behind the scenes thing,” she said.
Although Gomez has a packed schedule, she still makes time to watch her favourite show ‘Gossip Girl.’ “I absolutely love it,” said Gomez, who got to meet the cast at last month’s Teen Choice Awards. “I think the whole cast knows that I like their show. They all looked as a group and waved and smiled at me. I almost had a heart attack!”
Fans of The Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus can now get even more from their favourite artists by simply inserting their CD into the computer.
Disney has set up “Unlock More Rock,” a website that features never-before-seen acoustic performances, interviews, behind-the-scenes videos and other exclusive content from Disney performers.
Those who own the artist’s album can access the exclusive content by visiting www.unlockmorerock.com and inserting the CD, which unlocks the extras.
Other acts featured on the website include Vanessa Hudgens, The Cheetah Girls and Demi Lovato.
Also featured is “Disney Mania 6,” a compilation album in which contemporary acts cover songs from such Disney films as “Monsters, Inc.” and “The Little Mermaid.” The “Unlock More Rock” website gives fans a chance to check out the “If I Didn’t Have You” recording session by Emily Osment & Mitchel Musso of “Hannah Montana” fame, as well as the making of Colbie Caillat’s “Kiss The Girl” music video.
