[MrAJFranchise]

this guys a c***

[spiderpig846da2nd]

LOL

3:00 was the best

[MCDouga11]

WTF ever happened to kingdom hearts 3 FUCK epic micky i want KH3!!!!!!!!!!!

[wetpotat0]

yes, U2 still sucks!

if anyone deserves a guitar hero/rockband, its GN'R or iron maiden

[inman28]

@wetpotat0 oh yes indeed U2 suck they are the most consistent band ever 34 years of flawless material, there earlier post-punk works make the beatles look like fucking lady gaga, thay have won 22 grammys, they are one of the biggest touring acts the world has ever seen, and your telling me that shitty has-been 1 song wonders GNR and iron maiden are better i think some kind of lobotomy has occured here FAG that is all

[IamPersonMan]

Destin cant keep a straight face to save his life. : )

[LonestarHandee]

5 Stars. FUCK U2.

[Aunit098]

epic mickey sounds like its going to be on ds.

[moshpitmachine]

but still you say that music expresses feelings drawbacks in society and other such things, well so do these people at screw attack. they express feelings about the drawbacks in society which can be easily seen in not only the games themselves but in societies reaction to the content there in. if anything defines a change in society it would be video games and how they are accepted in mainstream society. so while they say it differently perhaps its the same message

[knop95]

good touch at the end. *favs*

[knop95]

Epic Mickey. Sounds like a good story. 3:01

good episode.

[PBearHBK]

Us sucks? really? Tell that to the countless number of fans that band has world-wide. they may not be my cup of tea, but they don't suck either.

Personally I think bands such as Nickleback suck, but that is my opinion, and in this case, Destin's opinion isn't justified in the slightest.

[PBearHBK]

I meant U2, not Us, damn bad typing skills.

[Relyt22]

No, they still suck. And so do you.

[PBearHBK]

Case in point as to why inbreeding should be outlawed in the world.

[Relyt22]

Yes, because anyone who dislikes U2 is a retarded hick from Alabama, right?

[PBearHBK]

No, just you are for making such an inane personal attack against someone that said they aren't even my "cup of tea" (meaning I am not a fan either) and trying to defend fans of the band.

The facts bear that there are more fans (by the millions) of U2 than there are non-fans, so I guarantee a Rock Band U2 would be a huge money maker, just like Rock Band Beatles has been.

[PBearHBK]

As a broadcaster, Destin should know better to make such a blanket statement about a franchise, which doesn't even exist yet, that could already tarnish sales. It's a lot different to make such statements prior to release, than it is to play a game such as Turning Point and THEN saying it sucks. THAT is justifiable. Making such a claim against a game that doesn't exist because you personally do not like a band or their music is just bad practice as a journalist, meant in humor or not.

[gapanlilio33]

awesome cobra costume!

[moshpitmachine]

ok so what your saying is music is not supposed to be entertaining and that i shouldnt hold rock to any standards? so there fore comparing the entertainment value of a group of people who make videos and a group of people who make music (and music videos) is wrong. i dont see your logic please explain, because the way i see it music is an art form meant to etertain and be enjoyed and so are the videos put out by the good people at screw attack

[Berfomek666]

Screw you destin! U2 never sucked!

[K7creationsTV]

copying ps3 home?? that is like copying shit...bad idea microsoft

[Xiphion]

im surprised they havent made guitar hero: dragon force yet. maybe thats a good thing.

[Tkscz]

It's still a Wii exclusive, this was just a rumor. The rumor has been shot down.

[Ch33s3k4k3]

There should be a Amon Amarth Rockband :D

Seriously, I'd instantly buy that.

[TheClenchingfists]

holy shit yeah...

id buy a whole new band set if they woold have their instruments replicated too (:

[Ch33s3k4k3]

With a free Johan Hegg beard included! :D

[NoTalentSucks]

hahaha u2 sucks

[TeamKiller555]

MOOOOOOOOOO!

[ghostfacedude93]

U2 kicks you're ass

[jamesfmurray]

lol he tried to make a straight face

[kingdedede64]

Nice job keeping a straight face at the end, destin. =)

[ilikeyoutubing]

"people were very exited about this story , before they realised U2 still suck"

love it ;D

please Rockband , anyone but U2

make a Nirvana one , or Oasis , Blink 182

JUST ANYTHING BUT U2 !

[HunterUniden]

Blink 182? omg... I mean seriously the singers voice is soooooo lame.

[poopsiclesss]

LOL

[wiih8ps3]

forgot disney stars? disney starting with micky, you been neglecting everything, i dont like jonas brothers or hannah montana. Besides your nothing without pixar

[Leohuizar]

IM DESTIN...and it is a small world after all

[foadysfah]

hahahahaha epic ending!!!!!

[xXShonomercyXx]

yea but gameinformer the game was just announced so you never know and that includes gameinformer

[szor1]

I'm not a U2 fan either but, they suck so much, they're multi millionaires!

[bl4kstarr]

it was only a matter of time until microsoft copied ps3 home

[Mitchregis]

you should have said im destin and this is hard news in a mickey mouse voice :D

[Alexred94]

finally mickey is getting the showing he deserves

hes disneys mascot and disney barely gave a shit about him

[JoelH790]

i wouldn't enjoy a u2 rockband

[gammerguy1995]

omg Microsoft is going to make something that is boring and let you play for 50 € for month.

sux my balls. i don't play home not so much and now i see that home is stupid.

[OnBeingHuman]

Epic Mickey is going to be sweet!

[Fettbulle]

U2 suck? screwattack sucks... 6000 views.... Wow? where do you get your money from to make your crappy videos? probably from robbing that ol' 7 eleven.

[Gammer4life]

umm, they have a site where these are posted, go check their views then come back, I'm irish myself and I fucking hate bono so go figure

[moshpitmachine]

no matter what you say U2 still SUCKS they will always SUCK and screwattack is far far more entertaining than those idiots

[90524]

heh... i remember a hard news where destin made a joke about microsoft copying home... it was inevitable : )

but that means good things for meh!

[lappy744]

Is it me or is Avatar starting to look a hell of a lot like Lost Planet ?

[bastardrian]

lego rock band? youre kidding me

[MrCreativ3]

Home isn't very original, there are tons of those kind of games on the web and they have been there for years...

[TARDISdude2k7]

...nice hat destin.

[landioma]

Good god microsoft.. please don't rip off bad ideas.

[SuperSonic1017]

Home is really bad. Ripping it off will only make the 360 worse.

[ProjectVRD]

Home is a huge success...

They even have Live music performances now. That is how big it has become.

The Dizzee Rascal VIP Room is being refitted for the next Live performance.

If you can't pull in Home and arrange a meet up then you can't pull anywhere.

[SuperSonic1017]

It's just so boring. Why can't they have some music in the background? Play on the RE5 studio lot. There are no sounds there.

[MrTTar]

isn't it strange that everyone who didn't bother about Epic Mickey is suddenly interested now that the Wii Exclutivity is questioned?

[EnigmaNL]

It's because the Wii sucks and everybody knows it.

[djelectric]

LOL!! great ending... :'D

[AntonISAHOTT]

I think a part of his soul just died

[Ichutusioso]

best end ever :D

[Vilenerve]

U2 isn't THAT bad... and their music library is big...

[BlackVirusxz]

bono is an epic douchebag

[elegate87]

yeah they been around for long

[usm999]

microsoft home WTF another sony's great idea stolen buy a wanna be system. MS dont have anything original at all i mean they've copied the likes of BUZZ, Singstar & the eyetoy style camera. sony had HOME in devs long before it was announced for the PS3 it was ment to arrive on the PS2 but never had the right kit to make it run. so there for MS sucks 100% on what they do with idea's. f**k you microsoft

[wealllovepotatoes]

"great idea"?

your joking right

[Gohansan01]

Did you get that hat from disney? The FCC could fine you for that you know.

[CKBrom]

if epic mickey is wii exclusive, then its a waste

Uncharted 2 NEXT WEEK!!!!!

[LoadOfCrabby]

HAHA rofl'd

[ishotbuckwheat]

green lantern ring...

[ptwob]

i thought disney lost the rights to oswald the rabbit.

[dinoballz]

Yep... now I'm sure... the Canoock is wearing a Green Lantern ring >.>

[kaiserzero61]

U2 does suck indeed.

[elegate87]

they're are ok

[SteGuitar7]

Epic mickey looks retarded.

[jordanthewizard]

I hate U2

[EhHolepro]

typical.... microsoft copies everyone, with the controllers, with the avatars, with the points cards, and now... with the dashboards.

[GamesPlayer1]

lmao nice episode

[shadow40k0]

oh how tragic, a full grown man excited about a mickey mouse game

[apenneukende]

I love how when destin makes a joke he almost can't hold in his laugh :D

[chudders]

Greatest end to Hard News ever :D

[drunkgorilla]

Really, I would rather buy a Journey Guitar Hero. U2 are fags.

[Lolatron16]

I dont really care who gets a gh game, as long as rage against the machine get one

[drunkgorilla]

True that Lola. Or some rob zombie.

[TRIN3XX]

what a shitty generic band

[callumedgar]

Microsoft Home? what a load of fucking bullshit, Microsoft stick to your own goddamn ideas.

[darthnazgul]

It's pretty obvious they don't listen.

[CidPhenomenal]

ok since your discription says ''all about video games'' im gonna let that comment slide.......

[xbox360andNDSdude]

lol destin at the end

[Crimsonlance]

Epic Mickey might follow lesser known shows, huh? In that case, they better have the cast from Gargoyles in the game! Come on, Disney, show me you could still be redeemed by including that kick ass show in the game!

[8BitFox]

it was lesser known stars, rides and movies. so you might get lucky. personally im hopping to see a pete's draggon level. or a bedknobs and broomsticks level. whats better thank painting over nazi?! painting over them and then ERASEING THEM FROM EXISTANCE! *awsomeface*

[Skill7acular]

huzza for destin!

[manuelito1233]

I say...

Next year will be a good year for adaptations... WHO'S WITH ME?!?!?!

Adaptations as in... movie to game, so on so forth.

[sic6664]

U2 just got owned. Boy I wish Epic Mickey is not just a Wii exclusive!

[SpecterM91]

Wait, wait, wait... Was Birdman insinuating that Avatar's game DOESN'T suck? Kick ass, I was hoping it turned out okay.

Hoping Epic Mickey is as fun as it looks. It kinda has a little bit of an Okami vibe, with the color restoration and such. Really hope it's fun.

[CrazyMofoCooling]

And the flame wars continues... sigh when will it end?

[WilHiteWarrior]

Weee didn't start the flame war!

People were haaatin' on it 'fore I left my comment!

[ajwoor]

lmao :)

[Angel1025]

If any band deserves a Rock Band game, it's Queen.

[DeadEndProductionss]

give that man a medal

[gamesmonkey]

360>PS3>PC>Wii

[costescuandrei1975]

no, PC(it has been the first after all)>360(1st next-gen)>PS3>Wii>PSP>DS And awesome ending

[Museyfied]

"People were very excited about this until they remembered that U2 still sucks"

Lol, word Destin. xD

[kingnarutorule]

... I'm Destin and this is hard news.... xD

[mirokyu]

Old U2 is awesome. But newer U2 just isn't there.

[hewstonjames]

i reckon that microsoft is getting sony back for delaying there console so they could improve there system so its better then the xbox inside but still xbox is better today

[electricsouperman]

your comment makes no sense. im sure MS were thrilled that they got extra time at being the only real console on the market. that means more sales >.>

also, playstation home is the ps3's worst feature. why bring it to the 360?

[hewstonjames]

my comment makes so much sense sony delayed there console so they could make there console better so why dont you go to school and learn english

[zippolight2002]

Microsoft picks it up with the Wii. I'm calling it now. Yet again, Sony will come up short.... because they're stupid.

[MugenRenegade]

Says the person that has PS3 on his profile name. Just because some people like the 360 better than the PS3 doesn't mean that they are 360 "fanboy's". Please no console wars man, it's really ignorant. =/

[medproductions]

Cool story bro.

[puklop]

Bro story cool.

[Zuitman]

lol yea U2 does suck

[odetofall1]

That mickey game looks sweet...

[danethefurry]

Old U2 isn't bad, but new U2 sucks right now!

[WilHiteWarrior]

I WAS FROZEN TODAY!!

[Vkmies]

[badcoin]

Destin couldn't hold the lol moment. XD

[soad13malakian666]

[ArisatoMinato42]

[MrNick2D]

[edge4552]

[madskizophrenik]

[shishkabob50]

[angel777lucifer]

[nimer371]

stupid microsoft copying sony haha how pathetic.

[flyboi1015]

U2 doesn't suck.

[Koshea2]

u know what if this turned out to be the next kingdom hearts.....but if it isn't it'd still be good

[bloodangelxx]

i guess one of the bosses in epic mickey is the demon from fantasia

[thedarklordsknigh]

it looks like you where trying to hold back for busting out laughing and i bet you did after the camera went off

[xVileHeartx]

BIRDMAN YEEEE

[TMASR001]

Home is for pussies that stay "home" all day.

[diablo313]

Hasn't Microsoft copied enough off of Playstation Home?

[Imsocoolman5]

Epic...Hat... :)

[Deth280483]

1:37 lol cobra commander

BTW epic mickey no wii exclusive?

it´s time to blame project natal and those sony´s maracas i guess...

[TMASR001]

Who cares if it's not a Wii exclusive? It's not guaranteed that an exclusive will be a better game.

[serenok]

xbawks fan boi!

the wi is soo much jkewler then the xbaks you know it! al the xboks has it halo and stupd stuf lik dat.

[shino487]

actually the xbox has halo, gears of war 2, fable, mass effect, banjo kazooie, castle crashers, lost planet 2, the only good version of ghost recon advanced warfighter, splinter cell conviction, would you like me to go on some more? the only good game ive played for the wii is super smash bros brawl.

[serenok]

actually that was a joke. I play my xbox a lot more then my wii :/

WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME NINTENDO?!

[SignusMelko]

Most of those games you just named are multi platform. And the Banjo Kazooie game was terrible. Everyone pretty much agrees, Rare without Nintendo hasn't released a single good game.

[WoWDemondays]

I Love U2

[TMASR001]

Talk about Deja Vu. MS is now the desperate ones compared to 3 years ago.

[baosing]

I thought Oswald the Rabbit is owned buy Universal?

[grayfox3635]

not anymore just recently Disney got the rights back

[HardCoreGamer94]

actually Oswald was Walt Disney's original idea for his big cartoon mascot but it did not go so well and that is where Steamboat Willie came into play..

[Maztuhmind]

Oh boy!

i've been kinda dreaming for something epic to come out with mickey tagged on it.

[dmeth51]

Why? Home is lame and boring. If you're going to rip something off, rip off something good.

[MorticonZX]

No more Wii exclusivity?! NO!!!! It's the first game in YEARS that have have been able to brag about to my freinds!

[SignusMelko]

It will likely still be exclusive. I can't Microsoft publishing an original game.

Also, there are plenty of Wii games to grab about coming out, Dead Space, Red Steel 2, Mario Galaxy 2, Mario Brothers Wii, House of the Dead, No More Heroes, and the old ones, Brawl, Mario Galaxy 1, Zelda, Metroid, the Wii has probably more GREAT exclusives than any console out there right now, especially multiplayer games.

[TMASR001]

MS is the weak one this year.

[SignusMelko]

Truth, but then again, if you own a PC, there is absolutely no reason to touch a 360, and until now the PS3 was not worth the money even a little bit.

[TMASR001]

The 360 is an alternative for anyone who wants to play games like Left 4 Dead and does not want to buy an expensive and powerful PC.

[captainclayman]

i think i'd rather get a PC because

a) TEH GRAFX

and

b) if i'm gonna play fps'es and rts'es i'll probably rather want to use keyboard and mouse.

only downside is IT'S SO EXPENSIVE

[77josh77]

also computers tend to lag much more than consoles due to not everyone having a perfect computer lol

[SignusMelko]

Currently, it would probably be cheaper to build a PC more powerful than a 360.

A great powerful gaming PC would only run around 400-500 bucks, at most.

Now to get almost the same with a 360, you need to shell out money for a version with a big hard drive, pay for online service, be limited to laggy small player servers (example, PC version of CoD4 has 60 people playing at once) pay for every map and add on, and get patches much slower than PC, and have to deal with the horrible controller

[jdigitalseven]

They have fun 1st party games, those are few and far between. They get the worst in multi platform games by a long shot. The developers just dont try to make the Wii version any good it seems. Its a fad thats going away....just like hyper color shirts and slap bracelets were.

[funnyjunkvmkman]

i think homes good

u2 still sucks

canada roc..... lego rock band?

the epic micky game looks cool

im mike with MTV GAMES IS SHITTIN ME!

[The4thnobleman]

S-C-R

E-W-A

T-T-A-C-K

Screwattack! Screwattack!(brentalfloss!)

The place where gaming goodness can be had!

*should stop.....now*

[voidmaster45]

I HATE Disney!!! Heartless, faceless, greedy corporation that has everyone tricked into thinking they are "Magical" McDonalds has more of a soul than Disney. And yet, I think I might have to buy Epic Mickey if it is anything like the concept art.

[M33kinator]

Using paint thinner to see through walls eh? I wonder how Mickey does that...

[TLoZNa]

Why no sidescrollers today? =(
