More co-op in Disney Infinity 2.0 today. Mark and I played Survival mode on both Assault on Asgard and Escape from the Kyln power discs. Tower defence in Assault on Asgard can be a bit of a pain after a while so we went over to Escape from the Kyln and played its Diablo style gameplay through all the story missions (I used my Spider-Man figure for this), and then tried to tackle Exploration Survival Mode (I used my Green Goblin figure for this). This mode is 50 levels long, which takes a good long time, like several hours. Problem was, we kept getting disconnected somehow and had to start all over from the beginning. The first time we got to level 36 after an hour and twenty minutes (the mode has a timer). Then we got to level 46 after two hours and got disconnected again.There wasn't enough time to try a third time, so I checked out the Stitch and Brave power disc levels. 

Mark and I finally got to play some co-op in this game today using the Power Discs. We played through the rest of the tower defense style levels in the Assault on Asgard disc, and got through about half of the action rpg levels in Escape from the Kyln. We both tried to use the "event" power discs that give you an extra special attack, but the game doesn't let you use them in these story levels, just the survival mode that's on both discs. That's ok though because the survival mode is pretty cool on both discs. You play a large number of increasingly more difficult levels for each. We got to about wave 17 on the Assault on Asgard survival mode, and tomorrow, we'll tackle the 50 wave Escape from the Kyln survival mode. That one will likely take several hours to beat.

I found some used Disney Infinity Power Discs today at one of my retro stores. I bought the ones that give your characters abilities (they have the star at the bottom). There are also customization ones and toy ones. I like the abilites best. They are circular discs and go under your figure on the portal. Then I picked up 5 figures on the still running Gamestop sale: four Skylanders and a Baymax figure for my friend Mark. Here's the picture and further descriptions below: 

Today I found all the power discs I needed for achievements in Disney Infinity 2.0 in two 2-packs at GameStop and BestBuy. They are unique among the power discs because they have new levels on them.

Today I finished the Spider-Man playset in Disney Infinity 2.0. I enjoyed it a lot. It's mostly the same sort of stuff I did in the Avengers Play Set, but I don't mind because the combat system is pretty good.

Say hello to another batch of Skylanders. I couldn't resist hitting one of the last Gamestops in my area I haven't been to yet this week. I think I have about 15 Gamestops in about a 15 mile radius of where I live. This one would be number 14, I have one left.

I played the Spider-Man playset in Disney Infinity 2.0 today. I didn't finish it, but I got pretty far. This playset is much like the Avengers one. There are interior areas and then there's the open world New York City. So it pretty much plays exactly the same as the Avengers playset. Still, it's fun. You have web slinging in this with the Venom and Spider-Man figures. I'm playing as Venom mostly with Nova and Nick Fury on the side to pick up bonus boxes Venom can't and do other Feats (small objectives) along the way. 

Today, I got just about everything I want that's playable in Disney 1.0 and 2.0, and a few from 3.0 before I actually get that game down the road, and some Skylanders, of course. From here on out it'll be just a single figure here and there from 3.0 (except for tomorrow because I forgot one 2.0 figure, Nova). Now I have to make up all the money I spent. Granted, I did get all this stuff on sale, but I still spent a pretty penny when you add it all up. It's alright, I guess. I got everything else this year for free from trade-ins. Time to save up again. Anyway, here's some pics of it all starting with the 1.0 characters. 

It's a like becoming a routine these days to hit a Gamestop somewhere in my area and see what they got in Toys-to-life. This below is the result of two stops, one yesterday and one today. I'm working mostly on the Disney Infinity 1.0 figures, but I pick up interesting ones, when I find them, for 2.0. Then I fill out the five figures I get on the sale with Skylanders I don't have. Here's the pict below:

I went on an enormous shopping spree for Disney Infinity and Skylanders figures yesterday. Gamestop still had it's buy-2-get-3-free sale and Toys R Us had a buy-1-get-2-free sale. Here is all the stuff in six pictures:
