‘Spy Kids’ game uses 3-D technology

MEDIA DISTRICT WEST -- Inspired by the Dimension Films movie of

the same name, Burbank-based Disney Interactive released the

3-D-enhanced video game “Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over” for Game Boy

Advance and PCs on Wednesday.

The video game marks the first time Game Boy Advance consoles have

used 3-D technology. The game, released in conjunction with the July

25 opening of the third installment of the children’s action-movie

franchise, requires the 3-D glasses it comes with.

McDonald’s Happy Meals will also provide six secret codes during

its movie promotion from July 25 to Aug. 14.

Disney Interactive is the children’s software label of Buena Vista

Games Inc.
