I always thought it would be awesome to make a full 3d environment using an engine like Half Life so you can run around, interact, and ride the rides. Not to mention you could have secret areas that dont exist.. and make non-show areas part of the show.
The technology is there to make the imersive environment, put the music and sounds, lighting. Just missing smells, food and the tired feet.

I signed up. Plenty of crashes, as it is a beta test after all... but the Fireworks game is pretty fun!

The newer FPS game engines will allow this with no problem. Even coasters.

They just need to invent those nifty star trek transporters and then we can dispense with these games all together and get the Disney fix whenever I want

Ha ha dude, you just made a CRAP-LOAD of requests! It's all good though, without it we wouldn't have anything. Now it's my turn.

I'm at the office late tonight so I decided to load up some more mellow music. Now I am rocking out to your tunes. I did request some of the Blast! tunes coming up after yours. Usually there are few to no requests at this time.

VMK does run better in IE as opposed to Firefox. And Macs have trouble right now. I just started using it a couple of days ago and it's really fun. It's aimed for teens, but disney fans can still get a kick out of it. My name is bingox if anyone finds me in it!
