My review copy of Disney Infinity arrived today. Well, it is not exactly a review copy because I’m not obligated to write a review with it but rather I’m writing a post on Friday all about the launch of Disney Infinity 2.0.
I wasn’t expecting to enjoy the game as much as I do. I have Infinity 1.0 and never ever play it. Now with Marvel Super Heroes as part of the game it is much improved. So far I’ve only played with the Avengers Play Set and the characters that are part of the starter kit.
Prior to the launch of the game I had pre-ordered the game from Amazon.com and there was a deal where you got the game, a package of power discs, 3 extra figures and the Spider-Man Play Set. That whole thing was $119, I added the Guardians of the Galaxy set as well. Then I found out that I got the shop where I’d get my own copy of the game. I re-thought that purchase decision and cancelled my whole order. I’ve got Skylanders coming out in two weeks and wanted to spend my money on that game instead. I had also made an order for figures through the DisneyStore.com site because I had a credit there. I tried to cancel it but was unable to do so. So I let it arrive.
Andrew and I did go shopping both today and yesterday for figures and we got three of them at Toys R Us because they had a sale on figures and power discs. So in the end I did spend a few extra bucks on the game overall.
I am glad that I go the extra figures because I am really enjoying the game. The controls are better and the avengers Play Set is fun to play. There are some problems with it. I’ll detail that at some point.
