Are any of their in house games good (relatively speaking)? What would make Disney do this? Maybe this is a generalization, but it seems like anything from China or Korea just plays out like Lineage.

I guess Magical Land "looks" Disney-like enough though.

Also, this is funny:

I don't know how good Shanda's games are but Disney is aggressively pushing into China with Hong Kong Disneyland being the most obvious example and there are plans on building another one in Shanghai as well. I'm sure they've also seen the success of WoW in China and are going "we want some of that!".

People who want money go to China.
