Tuesday, April 15, 2008 |
More than 11,000 people have signed a petition to save Disney's Virtual Magic Kingdom massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) after an announcement was made that the site will be closing.
The free Disney VMK gaming site debuted in 2005 as part of an online promotion for the company's 50th anniversary. The game has continued to grow in popularity.
Just because it is a virtual game as far as friendship goes does not make the friendships any less real. - angry parent Kenny Gill said
Disney will formally conclude its 50th promotional online game as of May 21, 2008, the www.savevmktoday.com site reported.
