Disney Infinity: 3.0 Edition Starter Pack - Nintendo Wii U

My son loves the characters he loves the images and colors ...

I am a huge Disney Infinity fan already so I knew I would be getting this game. However, when I actually played it I was blown away! They have made some major improvements across the entire game and it is infinitely fun! There are so many ways you can play this game, you shouldn't be bored of it for a long time. There is the traditional-style gaming with the playsets which you go on missions and follow a story line as well as put your own touches and go on side quests at your own leisure. They've really made the playsets much better this time with tons of voice acting, cut scenes, and varied and fun missions and side quests. With the included playset you get to travel through space to 4 different planets and have space battles, boss battles, and much more. You can also go back and replay missions whenever you like without having to start the game over. They've also really improved the fighting system, it's much more advanced for adults but still accessible for little kids. They've even included combat kiosks that teach you step by step how to do the advanced moves. If you are a Star Wars fan in anyway you will enjoy the playset included in the starter pack. The toybox has also seen major improvements with a toybox hub that has interactive tutorials that ease you into the way of the toybox and shows you how to create your own worlds and your own games. There is so much to do in the hub alone before you even make your own from scratch! The hub has tons of content ready to play in. There are tons of tools to make building faster and easier and you can find so many tips and tricks from their youtube channel. The hub is sectioned into 6 different parts to show you the wide scope of possibilities including: Driving, Combat, Interior decorating, Racing, Platforming, and Farming. The figures are incredibly detailed and are gorgeous enough to collect without even playing the game. My kids enjoy playing with them on screen and off! Really well made and look great for both adults and kids to appreciate and collect. Improvements: The driving mechanics have been improved which is great because the older games were tough for me to race in, I kept falling off the edges before but this time seems easier to navigate. The combat is much better this time around with quicker response time and more advanced moves for the more experienced gamers but still enjoyable for younger kids or new video gamers to just button smash and see awesome combos and attacks. Farming is new to Disney Infinity (which can be quite addicting!) where you can grow and harvest your own crops which include traditional things like corn, carrots, lettuce but also include silly crops like a cupcake tree and churro cactus. The side kicks have also seen a big addition with complexity and tons more to choose from. You can bring your favorite Disney characters with you in your toybox, in the community toyboxes, and even the Toybox Takeover expansion! You can level them up, feed them food, bring them with you, and equip them with gear to suit your needs whether you want them to farm, fight, or just tag along. Overall I would definitely recommend to anyone who loves creating worlds, who loves open-ended games, who like Star Wars, who enjoys a huge variety of things to do, and whoever enjoys the toys to life genre. I pretty much would recommend to anyone who is a kid at heart :) A huge win for me! Thanks Disney Infinity! There is just so much in this game!

So, I have had only a little time to play the game so far due to work and kids, but so far I am really liking this iteration of the game. I liked the last two as well, but I also agreed with all of the criticisms of the previous two editions. I set the game to extreme difficulty because the previous two versions were just too easy for an adult. Not this one. It's pretty challenging on the extreme level, so that will make it enjoyable for me as an adult. I have played with the toybox takeover for the first section and have enjoyed it! I hope they release more things like this in the future. The central game hub I have just begun to explore but it is much more intuitive (and fun) than the 2.0 version (which always crashed whenever I opened too much of it at a time on the wii U). Ahsoka (sp?) is awesome in terms of playability. Annakin's ok. So, again, only just really starting to get into it, but definitely enjoying it so far!

We had problems on the previous versions with the menus. Our young kids, who where under the age of 8 at the time of 2.0, had a hard time navigating the menus. Which meant they couldn't play without parental help. The menus are now so well put together that our 4 year old can manage it well enough for him. The Star Wars franchise is a fantastic add to Disney Infinity. Although my kids love the Inside Out playset, the Star Wars playset that comes with the starter kit is awesome! We loved this new version of Disney Infinity so much that we already almost have all available 3.0 characters!

My wife and I purchased this for our son who's in love with Star Wars as an upgrade to the 2.0 version he already has. We've sank plenty of hours into 2.0, and I must say the changes to 3.0 are fantastic. Platinum Games does a wonderful job at making the gameplay as smooth as can be and the figurines look great on display. There are plenty of unlockables and the toy box is fun to tinker with. The addition of the extra Toy Box games adds some additional longevity to the game and we're looking forward to picking those up soon.

I originally was looking for just the Ahsoka figurine. I was dismayed that it was only included in the bundle. After looking up the game though, I decided to give it a shot. And I was glad I did. I'm a big fan of the Clone Wars animated series (on Netflix currently), so it was awesome to see characters from that show in the game voiced by their original voice actors. I haven't done any stage building yet, but really do enjoy having a Clone Wars game. The figurines are nicely constructed as well.

Coming from a dad this game is a must. Stars Wars, Light Sabers. Come on, how can you pass this up. It had me at Hello is that a light saber I hear? I am not much of a builder as my daughters are so I leave that to them. They think this part is great. I, however, starter playing the included playset and it's really fun. I am happily surprised that we can all enjoy this game. I highly recommend this game for adult Star Wars fans and kids that are fans of Disney movie characters.

Getting all the Disney infinity playsets and characters at these reduced prices is a steal. Getting discontinued is unfortunate, but they're definitely worth the investment now. Being able to plug and play characters in multiple worlds allows for a different experience every time you play through. Add the RPG mechanics of adding skills/powers that works with your playstyle, and you have solid games that are perfect for kids.
