I've never heard of a DVD player that can play games, and they're probably rubbish. Is it possibly 64 Mega Drive games or something?

You cant play games on a DVD player.. aside from maybe those really really basic plug into tv 500-in-one games things for a tenner.

There are plenty of DVD games around, we have "Who wants to be a millionaire" that you just pop in the DVD player to play using the remote. Phillips (and others) make DVD players that come with a games disc you just pop in. It's unlikely you'll have one playing Halo 4 but there are most certainly DVD player games available.

ETA: Here is a list of standalone DVD Player games available.

Really thats more of selection from a number of different menu options. Its as much 'playing a game on a dvd player' as say.. 'try and hit the pause button just as XYZ happens during the film' would be a game on a dvd player.

Looking closely at the photographs, and a bit of detective work leads here

Note the list of headings near the top exactly matches the list in one of the photos.

So looks like very simple games played with the DVD control buttons. I doubt they will be the kind of thing I would pay that much for (£160)
You can get a cheap 2 screen with 2 screens and two controllers for around £70 - there is a Philips one on there now.

Hi Guys
Thanks for the reply here is the link

I have just had another email stating they made a mistake on the email they sent me it doesnt play 64 bit games only 8 bit games
still none the wiser

The only reference to games (that I noticed) on that Amazon page is where it says the DVD player has "TV & GAME function".

Does that just mean that it has some kind of input allowing another video source (from an external TV or games console) to be displayed on the screen...?
