Sounds good, but I hope it is like LOTR: War in the North and is free-to-play. Sounds really good actually, interesting that he said 'action' and that it isn't a 'world of warcraft in space'

I can't wait to find out more!

This is definitely interesting. It's a challenge to get MMO's to work properly for consoles, so I'm wondering if Bungie will wonder over to the PC for this one.

I hope it's an FPS, I hope since it's multiplatform they will revolutionize and make it CROSS platform, so people on Xbox can play with PS3 people. And please please please! Good story...Bungie always makes an amazing story, but I feel like an MMO is hard to make a story in. I can't WAIT to hear Marty's new revolutionary tunes!!!

Fight to the end, and give it your all.

Damn, I was gonna post this too....

DO WORK.

if 1+1=2, then are muffins better than pancakes?

Just saw this also. I'm pretty excited!!! I love RPG's and would love an original game by Bungie rather than the declining series that halo has recently become.

Xbox 360/ pc (Window 7, AMD 955, 3.2mhz, quad core, 4gb ram, VisionTek Radeon HD 6870, and ownage)

can't wait.

I have always said bungie would be great at a mmo. Because amount of community work they put behind halo is match or more then what i have seen from MMO's i have played.

If a mmo is fun and updated with content to match a sub fee, i have no issue paying one. BUT 15 dollar mmo's push my buttons. i tend to go for the $10 or less

We're partially dealing with Activision here. They want to have people pay to play CoD so we shall see...

With zombies and jetpacking gorillas!

Best gaem evar!

Nah in all seriousness, I think an MMO sounds awesome. I just hope that they won't charge a monthly fee. I mean Bungie wouldn't do that but then there's Activision.

What's an MMO?

  • 03.03.2011 5:54 PM PDT

(massively multiplayer online)
Also, I'm pretty sure that if Activision were to charge a subscription fee, nobody would play.

Yeah but its also Bungie. Bungie owns the rights to everything. Bungie wouldn't want a pay to play game ESPECIALLY on consoles. So I don't think it will cross their minds.

There had better not be any subscription fees or microtransactions. They are already going to have to really impress me to get me to buy this.

It is likely to be pay-to-play.
Look at all the other console MMOs. They've all required a subscription fee.
It's an unfortunately side effect of maintaining the servers required to run an MMO.

If Bungie were smart, however, they'd run the same route as they do with the Halo series. Make it free to play, but release paid content every few months that make it almost necessary to pay up to get all the features. So it's like a subscription fee but its masked by new content.

That would work, but they'd also need to make it a bit fair for members who can't/won't pay.
