Disney Infinity musings

[*NikkiBell*]

I spoke to the manager here in Melbourne and over in Orlando this seems to be just an open trading event. You can possibly get the Tron in a "blind" pack. I may skip this one. We have all the characters just missing a few disc's

The second TRU exclusive gold pack was sold today starting at store opening. It contained the Tron disc and one other disc from Wave 1.

We have the entire power disc collection!!!

You get a break until 11/26 when Wave 2 is out!

Thanks Nikki! DS now has his DI calendar to count down to the next releases.

Also, thanks for the tip on the PS3. Is it bad that we bought it just for DI?! We returned the Wii version and the PS3 version is SO much better. I am amazed! Going to be spending the day at home tomorrow!

Love the calendar idea! I've been thinking of doing that myself. lol

I switched my Wii version for the PS3 and am so happy I did!

I did all my trading via mail with people from the DisneyInfinityFans.com message board and had a great time with it. Now I have some Disney pen pals!

I have not gotten a single TRU exclusive item and I'm not sure I will. I like the discs but Mikes car wasn't important to me and I never even saw Tron. I have every other discs except the three rares which I will likely buy on ebay if I can't get anyone to trade for em.

I've completely emptied the toy vault. With all of the extra spins from leveling up, I'm curious what's to come for the purpose of those. Anyone else emptied the vault?

At TRU now. Nobody else is here to trade with.

My daughters and I went to our TRU and there was also no one to trade with, we got there about 12:15. It was disappointing.

I have extra of Cinderellas coach, Alice terrain, Dumbo, Mulans horse, and Nemo terrain.

Need: chrome damage, stitch blaster, astro blaster, Alice sky, sugar rush sky and elephant Abu. If anyone wants to trade...

Does anyone have any thoughts about which system is optimal for playing Disney Infinity? We are thinking about taking the plunge and either buying a Playstation 3 or Xbox 360. My understanding is that Playstation and Xbox are both coming out with new versions for Christmas, but we will stick to the current versions. Do I need to worry about getting a Kinect for an Xbox 360 for this game?

We have the Xbox360 version and my kids love it. To answer your question you do not need the Kinect to play this game. We have a ps3 but usually don't buy games for it unless the xbox versions are sold out, so I cannot comment not how the Disney Infinity plays on it. This is a must buy game, although trying to get a full set of power disks can be expensive, unless you can find people to trade with. We do not have the same trading events that they do in the U.S.

I originally had the Wii version of DI and quickly brought it back, bought a PS3, and got that version. I am SO glad that I did. Things are VERY different including how much of a playset there is for each theme, the graphics are incredible, and the game play is much, much smoother. Game Stop has an excellent deal where you can get a PS3 bundle with three games that are kid-friendly (Lego Harry Potter, etc.) for $269. That's what I bought and am totally satisfied.

It's been said that they have slightly different abilities inside the game. I haven't noticed too much with Crystal McQueen though.

This is cool their doing it for figures that don't have a game and know people would display it.

I am not a gamer. I get bored easily and have never found the controls easy to work.

This being said my DS bought Disney Infinity while at WDW for PS3. I Love it!!!

Not only do I enjoy playing, I don't even mind watching him play for what seems like hours. The visuals are wonderful and the music happily familiar.
