Disney's games segment sales dive 17 percent

Just imagine a FPS staring Micky he finally snaps and kills everyone in Tunetown ^.^

If they stuck more to their core characters (ie: Mickey, Donald Duck, Goofy, etc.) I think they'd have a consistent influx of gamer interest. I'm in my 20's and I'd play the hell out of a well crafted current-gen Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck game. Make it engaging! They could take the Ratchet and Clank games as a template. Or something. Do something, Disney!

Obviously their games would have sold if they weren't shovelware (Excluding KH)

Pure was a Disney game and it is pretty sweet. If they do more of that and less Jonas Bros. and Hannah Montana more people will actually want to play their games.

Bart247: That's probably what Disney gets for releasing games based on the crapfest known as High School Musical, and on crappy artists such as The Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana. ========================= Yup, Disney needs to create an IP that can only be enjoyed as a video game. Doing so will force Disney to introduce something new and original to gamers of all ages.

A few weeks ago there was an article saying the video games sales all around had droped an adverage of 17%. So did they think disney would be unaffected by that.

So I guess the Hannah Montana and other games were all released after the quarter ended?

Disney makes a game for just about anything they can think of and most of it sucks major balls.....Here's an idea Disney..... Make a game based on Herbie, make it a Midnight Club / NFS / Forza style racing game and you might just have an original game on your hands....

if disney wants to sell more games...Just Make A Kingdom Hearts 3 then you'll see billions of dollars raising on your sale chartz

exactly what Bart247 said, only with me there'd be more swearing and insulting of Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, and High school Musical. also................Disney made Turok? the M rated dinsour killing, blood and gore filled game........wtf? heres a idea Disney, fire the Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana, start fresh with cartoons, and stop making crappy, worthless crap. one last thing.........don't make games based on singers or bands unless they are like Guitar Hero and Rock Band, and if you do, don't base it on talentless losers only brainwashed little girls like.

Maybe they should make better games

I don't think that Disney is hurting too bad, I mean practically every movie they make is a blockbuster in terms of sales.

if they want money they need to release good games

That's probably what Disney gets for releasing games based on the crapfest known as High School Musical, and on crappy artists such as The Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana.

KH3 is the only disney game anyone would care about.

announce KH3 and they could do better

Disney has nothing besides Pixar. An entire has been company filled with emptiness.

Well that's no surprise when they release a constant stream of mediocre music games for Hannah Montana and Jonas Bros. Here's my advice Disney: Tell Square-Enix to hurry the hell up with KH is you want some easy money.

what now son

Moo

As much as we like to diss the House of Mouse they are also responsible for Pure which I think is a fantastic game. They're also releasing Split Second which looks to be in the same style. I have absolutely no problems with that.

Kingdom Hearts is really the only good gaming franchise Disney has going for it. Why a new one hasn't been announced yet for the next gen consoles is beyond me.

What's the matter? It's no wonder you lost money when you made such crappy games.

Good. This should show that no one wants these stupid Disney games that flood the Wii and DS. Nobody wants to play a Tinkerbell or Disney Princess game. Just stick to Kingdom Hearts please...

How many Turoks do you need? It's Disney, stick to making cartoons and leave the shovelware out of the industry.

Actually, that'd be like, Turok 4 or something.

TUROK 2 please
