I played the late AC2 and by that stage it was good, and also original. Questionable design decisions- why it had an xp debt when it had so few players and especially new players I'll never know.

The original version of Ultima Online and Star Wars Galaxies Pre-CU.  Bring back the originals of both games.

Planetside

Shadowbane.  Oh I know, it's still going, but it really needs an infusion of a new engine/graphics.

LoTRO without the lore is an inferrior version of AC2 in my opinion.  AC2 combat was much better and so was the character custimization.   Take that with random loot, no lore limitations, complete creative control for turbine and much more of a sandbox type game environment, they would have a game with 100-150k subs easily.

This. 

It is three years since the servers shut down and AC2 has still active fan forums - much more active than many games on this site. I hope AC2 will revive once more, with or without Turbine. 

To those 200, 000 SWG fans waiting for TOR.....Don't!   ToR is going to be the exact opposite of a sandbox game, it's completely story driven. Different  quest paths will open depending on your actions or responses, but thats the only way it is not linear. I'm hoping it will feel epic and heroic but it won't be about open exploration  and player freedom which is what I gather most SWG fans miss.

These games are dead for a good reason.

• From earth and beyond!
• Old SWG!

SWG pre cu, Dark Age of Camelot pre TOA, AC2 are the ones I miss the most.

Wish

AD&D Dark Sun Online: Crimson Sands, I loved that game.

Doesn't DAOC have classic servers without TOA? Or do you mean the realm wars in Emain also?

I would like to see Multiplayer Battletech 3025 brought back myself.

I think that EverQuest II should be brought back from the dead.

Yes I know that it isn't quite dead yet but almost.

It would be good if someone like Bethesda could buy the EverQuest IP and maybe then we would finally get a stunning MMORPG with a modern 3D game engine.
