What IP would you like seen turned into an MMO?

Since we have a poor PvPless rendition of Lord of the Rings that is clearly out.

For a fantasy of politics, magic and war for me it would HAVE to be Raymond E Feist - Magician. Possibly just called "RiftWar". You have the indepth politics, the land the races, the kingdoms and empires and even different worlds! Running close second for a fantasy setting would be Robert Jordans Wheel of Time.

Sci-Fi setting would be David Weber's - Honor Harrington, although Eve is VERY close to this.... there is just something missing from Eve that makes it too boring. Since Star Wars is done and dusted and Star Trek is in the making as is StarGate, there are not many other options.

Whats other peoples ideas for IP for MMO's?

World Of Darkness: Vampire: The Masquerade, Werewolf: The Apocalypse, Mage: The Ascension etc.

Fallout: This is apparently on its way anyway from CCP and Interplay(?)

I will add more as they come to me.

What about Farscape? Good selection of well-defined races, plenty of other partially featured groups, lots of weapons, classes, ships.........Interesting slant on things.....

Naffa · 14 May 2007 at 23:27

What ever happened to Huxley btw? :confused:

That seemed like a really good concept.

Coronation Street MMORPG

For me, Warhammer 40k...yes I know its being developed, but I want it now, dammit!

Oh and possibly the Dune series might make a good MMO.

Imagine a Deus Ex MMO, that would be the only exception to my rule and I would pay monthly for such a thing if it were any good.

However, seeing as I don't care much about this life sucking peices of crap (my opinion, leave it at that and don't call me a troll) I can wait for a long time for this, but would be fantastic to see it one day.

Streeteh · 14 May 2007 at 23:32

God of war would be an amazing MMO, think of the possibilities, PvP battles to become the ruler of Olympus, clashes of titans (litterally), mega crazy beatemup style MMO goodness with RPG elements that have improved upon the original...

Of course there is the fact that i generally hate MMORPGs due to the monthly fees.

The company that run EVE online have merged with White Wolf, the people that do World of Darkness. Expcet an MMO based on that IP sometime in the future.
