God made women because mens brains are broken.

I dunno, but it really surprises me that IP's such as Pokemon, Digimon, Harry Potter, and Yui Gi Oh haven't been turned into MMORPG's yet.   All ofthese could be turned into decent MMO's.   Weird huh.

Pokemon - it's Nintendo, they're just now getting a hang on this new fad called the "internet".

Digimon - Korean version already made

Harry Potter - was considered, probably dropped because the IP is too lean for a MMO in it's current state

YuGiOh - I could see a online lobby or something but not a MMO, getting attacked by some random person which takes you to a 5 minute long random card battle would get old in the first day

Somehow I knew in hell there would be mushrooms.

Well, Dragonball Online is coming out, so who knows what else will be announced in the next few years. Personally I think those four IPs would be really hard to turn into MMOs, especially Harry Potter.

I think the idea of Robotech is awesome, but if that was not to come out I would think the a Gundam series especially G Gundam or the first gundam series would make awesome MMOs as well.


Now playing:
Tabula Rasa, The Saga of Ryzom

Played:
The Saga of Ryzom, Starwars Galaxies, Guild Wars, Metin 2, Cabal

Looking Forward to:
Earthrise, W.E.L.L. Online, Star Gate Worlds, Aion

They should make a Bloodbowl MMO...erm...sports sim.

Would be pretty cool...different teams each player controlled, maybe a cross between Madden and Speedball but ina  £d enviroment.

Transformers would make a cool MMO if they placed the action on their home world before it was destroyed.  It wouldn't really work on earth imo.

Transformers would definitely be cool. Also a harry potter MMO? Hmm that would be messed up now since they now have a gay character. What would that mean or how could it affect a harry potter MMO?

Firstly, there are no gay characters in Harry Potter...

Secondly, a character's sexual orientation wouldn't affect an MMO in any way...

MMORPG Character Monuments

...When its time for your character to take a well deserved rest...

I also believe that the average MMORPG player is somewhat older (approaching thier 30s). Those games, even the older ones as Pokemon, are still considered popular in the younger age groups. I doubt that a lot of current players would be attracted to those you listed.

Could you imagine the grind on Pokemon :)
