A DVD game (Sometimes called DVDi, "DVD
interactive") is a standalone game that can be played on a set-top DVD
player. The game takes advantage of technology built into the DVD format to
create an interactive gaming environment compatible with most DVD players
without requiring additional hardware.
DVD TV games were first developed in the late 1990s. They were poorly received and understood as an entertainment medium.[citation needed] However, DVD-based game consoles like the PlayStation 2 popularized DVD-based gaming, and also functioned as a DVD video player.
In addition, the format has been used to import some video games to the DVD format, allowing them to be played with a standard DVD player rather than requiring a PC. Examples include Dragon's Lair and Who Shot Johnny Rock?. The PC/console game Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness was released in 2006 as a DVD game entitled Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Action Adventure. Japanese games such as visual novels and eroge that were originally made for PC are commonly ported to DVDPG (a term that stands for DVD Players Game).
Instead of standard save methods, DVDPGs use password save systems. Similar game types include BDPG (Blu-ray Disc Players Game) and UMDPG (Universal Media Disc Players Game).
