Disney Infinity V.S. Skylanders

[Donatello19]

Disney Infinity: Does anyone plan on getting this game? As a huge Disney fan I was super excited for it when It was first revealed, but now that we've seen what the game is actually about, I've decided I'm not getting it. Here are my reasons for why I'm not getting it, these are just my opinions so keep that in mind before you argue against them.

Spoiler:

The designs for the characters are hideous, they're all blocky and simplified. Characters like Mike Wazowski and the Cars look fine since their designs are already simple to begin with, but characters like Buzz Lightyear, Captain Jack Sparrow and Sulley are just pathetic looking.

The price. The single characters are about 4-5 dollars more than a Skylander would cost.

The "toybox". If any of you have played Toy Story 3 the video game, you'll clearly see that Disney Infinity borrows HEAVILY from it, and it's basically an expanded version of that game. This is a personal preference, but I don't like games where you build your own world, I find it to be pretty boring after a while and I'd really just rather play some actual levels.

The character selection. The starting line up of characters is very weak, and what shocks me is that there are only TWO animated Disney characters to be in that line up, which are Ralph and Vanellope (who are fairly new to Disney, and don't even have their own play set). Where the heck is Mickey Mouse?The rest are either from live action movies (Pirates, Lone Ranger) or Pixar (Cars, Toy Story, etc.)

The use of Toys. there is absolutely no reason for the game to require figures other then to make money. If the game DIDN'T require toys, then maybe I would get it.

Those are the reasons why I won't be buying Disney Infinity and why I think Skylanders will prevail.

Skylanders: I've been with Skylanders since Giants, and I've loved it ever since. The Skylanders figures are a part of the story of the game (you are a portal master who has found the Skylanders that were banished to Earth...I know it's a little silly but still ). Skylanders is a very fun game to play with cool levels, fun characters to level up and buy upgrades for, an awesome battle mode, the upcoming Swap Force figures that allow you to make over 200 custom Skylanders of your own, and beautifully detailed figures.

So what are your thoughts? Are you for Skylanders, Disney Infinity or both? I was going to consider trying Disney Infinity, but it'll be much too expensive with me buying the new Skylanders as well.
