Multiverse has announced plans to release an MMO based on tip-top TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

The announcement was made by movie producer Jon Landau at the VirtualWorlds conference. "The resources are in place to develop a great MMOG," he said.

Apparently the game will launch from 'Multiverse Places', a new social networking environment. In a statement, Multiverse said the Buffy MMO will be playable "either as a fully immersive 3D environment or as a Flash-based 2D game, where both types of players can interact". Which isn't confusing at all.

this is excellent news as im a huge Buffy/angel fan, lets just hope its good, the 2D flash game sounds a bit "meh" though.
 
Wow A zombie killing game. lol

Left 4 Dead will be better, by miles.

Some people try to make money from anything.

As stated 7 years to late.
 
Aren't they doing a Firefly based MMO? Or was that just wishful thinking. IMO a Firefly MMO actually has some potential, unlike a 2d-flash Buffy MMO lol.
 
I think a part of me just died a little inside, I can't imagine this being any good at all... and I thought talking about WoW made you sound nerdy...

"I was ganking some n00bs on Buffy last night man and..."
"BACK TO YOUR CORNER!... This table is for REAL men"
 
so people in the 2d universe can interact with the people in the 3d universe?

wth? just.. how?

Actually I loved the TV show, and Angel, and Firefly... basically everything Joss Whedon touches is gold (mostly...) however a Buffy MMO is just not good even more so if it's a 2D Flash based MMO.

i understand where your coming from but can't we just give it the benefit of the doubt, and then when it is bad we can moan then :P

it's not just a flash game though in case you didn't see it all, there is a 3D version to go along with it.

That's what makes it even more bizarre. How on earth do you bridge 2d and 3d worlds in an online game?

They might have some uber interesting idea/way to do it - in which case, they should announce it so people aren't scratching their heads so much.
