I got this from a friend. Hmm.. VMKish sounding, but also wreaks of $$$ to be spent.

Very interesting and nice find! I was trying to find more info and found this statement: "We’ll see if this time Disney hits the jackpot and sticks to the game instead of shutting it down and leaving thousands of players behind." at http://www.unigamesity.com/new-disney-mmo-disney-fantasy-online-announced/ . Are they talking about our VMK?
I am wondering why can't Disney make games on their own since this is a team effort between Disney and NetDragon? Also, is it going to be for the USA or just China?

You know, part of me gets excited and then I get that sick feeling in the pit of my gut. The one that comes with the memory of the mess of VMK closing. Do we really have that to give to Disney again? We will always love Disney and the magic of our visits to WDW. However, even if this is the game to end all games, I don't know if I have it in me to dance this dance with WDIG again.

Interesting....and thinking the same as you Princess.

on the netdragon website, it looks like the game will be for china:
"[2 December 2008, Hong Kong] NetDragon Websoft Inc.("NetDragon" or the "Company", and its subsidiaries collectively called the "Group"; Stock Code: 777), one of the leading online game developers and operators in China, together with The Walt Disney Company's Interactive Media Group today announced their first Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) "Disney Fantasy Online" will be launched in Spring 2009.

Characters as pets that grow, build your own castles. I am so IN when and If it is ever released outside China
It's a step in the right direction! ......Now Disney It's a Step to the left and a step to the right...

When I look at teh pic I do not see a happy place. They all look angry and ticked off. Maybe because WDIG closed VMK and now the real characters have to work over time to fill in the mess :)

I got the same vibes from that picture.......looks like they want to make a VMK combat clone with the big sword and shield and such. Even Mickey looks pissed off.
I want VMK back, they already did the major work on it, seems like it would be easy for them to revive it if they wanted to rather than have "new and better" which many times is neither.

I am maybe way behind in that news but even if it looks like game I've already played in the past in the graphics style, I bet I would play it if it was in English

Kind of has the look of Disney's Kingdom Hearts game series.

Don't think I will be trying it.
