This is the first I've heard of "Lilo & Stitch: Island of Adventures", which sounds like it will be a game DVD, a first for Disney.

Hrm... a game, on a dvd? That's odd. I wonder how they implement that.. If it'd be DVD-ROM only or what? Thanks for the news LUke!

There's been a number of games on DVD released in the UK - including a version of Who want to be a Millionaire!

They play similarly to the mini games on Disney DVDs. Random questions and events, select from multiple answers, DVD player keeps track of scores etc.

Because the authoring is so complicated they don't work on all players.

Looking at the Lilo and Stitch game, it looks like it will be turn based and play like the Mario Party games.

Well, I'm really excited about Santa Clause 2 and Sleeping Beauty. I have the old VHS copy of Lion King, and since I don't have a DVD player and most people have said the Morning Report was terrible, I don't feel the need to replace it.

I knew he didn't have a DVD player yet, but what was shocking was that he's going to pass on The Lion King DVD because "The Morning Report" sequence is lame. Even if it WEREN'T, that would NOT be the reason to buy it on DVD.

I feel so bad for true Disney fans that are missing out on all that these loaded DVDs have to offer. I know PA has said he's hoping to get a player soon and all...but think of all the fun he's missed out on thus far

As a matter of fact we should probably take up a collection so that he can get....Ahhh, nevermind. That'd be $$ we could spend on our own Disney DVD collections

Thanks for the offer, indianajdp, but we can afford our own DVD player-it's just not something we need right now. We just bought a new van, my school's tuition just went up, and I'm the only one in my family who really wants one.

And I'm not passing up the Lion King DVD-I wouldn't have bought it anyway since I don't have the player. But I was passing up on the new VHS-I still have the old one, and the new sequence isn't worth replacing it. I'd replace it with the DVD in an instant.

Which says absolutely nothing that I didn't post over the weekend here - http://www.ultimatedisney.com/l3d-hgg.html

Actually Luke, Starion made certain hand gestures when he posted that info. Therefore I think it was in fact different and perhaps a bit more informative and interactive than your info

Ack, sorry.

I forgot about that page. Thanks for the reminder! I like the box-art; it's really cool. Hand gestures are cool too. lol

Instead of buying the collector's edition of Lion King or any other DVD for that matter, maybe you should invest some money into a DVD player. There are some out there for about 70 dollars, I think.

i just don't want you to miss out on anything...like DVD's

DVDisney · Post by **DVDisney** » Thu Jul 17, 2003 2:49 pm

Actually, you can find a DVD player for around $40 at Wal Mart or Best Buy

p.s. Im new here!
