A Care Bears MMO would be the height of irony.

The Transformers one could be cool.

As an alternative to the Care Bears:

Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears

They bounce here and there and everywhere, you know.

My number one would be Thundar.  The possibilities in that one are pretty wide open.   I wouldn't go as far as care bears on the other end.  Maybe a smurf MMO for the care bear crowd. Great list overall... there are so many good cartoons i remember from my childhood that would be great MMOs.  I can't believe GI Joe doesn't make everyone's top 5 list.  :)

A Thundercats MMO would be a furries wet dream.

Psssh, RoboTech.  I vote for a Gundam MMO. 

I like the idea of a He-Man MMO, but that show had quite the gay undertone to it.   For the Captain Planet  suggestions, why not go as far as a Toxic Avengers MMO, it was a short lived cartoon like most of the 80's and early 90's cartoons.  Maybe they can mirge together the Smurfs and the Snorks together. 

But  Gundam all the way!

 I know it isn't technically a cartoon but i used to love watching Fragil Rock That show was great. You would have to explore the land of the giants for raid content. other than that though it would mostly be crafting i guess lol.

It's kind of funny how these topics always go off from the original topic in a slight way.

I would say Thundercats, but furries creep me right the fuck out.

So I agree with the list. Carebear MMO just for the lolfactor.

A Robotech game would work very well, even though it would probably be better to base it on the original Macross series instead.

The other 4 however is not something I would like to play. Too boring setting.

Tumbling down the rabbit hole?

5/05/09 7:08:48 PM#68

 Hmmm

 

1. Battle of The Planets.

2. Defenders of The Earth.

3. Thundercats (shit loads of Thundercats, man).

4. Transformers.

5. Dungeons & Dragons (hey it was an 80's cartoon). But based on the show, rather than Stormreach.

Jace and the wheeled warriors, that would be awsome, and please don't say I'm the only one that remembers it.

 

Btw transformers wasn't set in the 80's, I think it was ment to be set in the late 90's, the orginal cartoon film was based in 2005, which is also the year they re-released it I do believe.

Good king, great king, and yet not greatly good.

I've always wanted to see a Transformers MMO, with the customization of City of Heroes/Villains, the PvP of Dark Age of Camelot, and a skill based system of advancement.

Playing: SWTOR and Skyrim
Waiting for: GW2, TSW and ArcheAge

Oh man! I completly forgot about that cartoon, I use to have some of the toys too. I actually think that would be a pretty interesting MMO.

While we're at it, what about Gem? She's truly outrageous...

I also remember a pac man cartoon, and a super mario bros cartoon and a zelda cartoon...

 

Basically all the crap that played on the USA cartoon express (along with he-man). heh.

We have nothing to fear but fear itself - and Chuck Norris.

5/05/09 8:52:00 PM#73

 Given the success of the Transformers - this has huge potential.  If i had millions to invest, I'd call up a developing comapny like 38 Studios and say lets grab this and run!  Avatar customization of robots, upgrades to what you can transform into, tons of skills, like Jon said (option to combine into a mega bot!), guilds create giant fortresses that can transform into mega bots too, compete for energy sources (energon), etc., crafting (enginering cyber stuff), vehicle combat, lots of factions, etc.

 

Other possibilities -

Adventures of Johnny Quest - shrink down to insect size and adventure

 

Finally - Best site for Chuck Norris

A pretty good list. If we were to take it seriously, Transformers, GI Joe, and Robotech would be the best on the list for something fans would want to play for sure. The Care Bears choice for a younger children MMORPG entry is rock solid, but Smurfs would be my personal choice over it as well.

Thundercats? Nah. Thundarr the Barbarian all the way - A slick Gamma World feel of post apocalyptic Earth with super science, sorcery, cyberware, monsters, mutants, and more? Hell yeah.

Another optional switch for Thundercats would be Teenaged Mutant Ninja Turtles as per the Palladium RPG, but we're looking at a furry based MMO which is a great thing for some and horrible for others. Pirates of Dark Water, while awesome, doesn't fit the 80's feel very well and it's also a stock fantasy setting. God knows we've seen enough of that already in the MMORPG scene.

What?!?!?!

This isn't a top list of 80s cartoons that would make good MMOs!

Let me show you how it's done with my TOP 3

Number 3: MR. T   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mDQ-Yg6AME&feature=related

Why? Because he's got a cool cool haircut and a mean mean look in his eye!

Number 2: Rambo the Force of Freedom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eliQEStzhu4

Why? uhmmm did you even see the last movie? The dude cuts people in half with a jeep mounted gun! That sounds fun right?

Number 1: CHUCK NORRIS: KARATE KOMMANDOS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXpA4TjimII

Why? Chuck Norris sleeps with a pillow under his gun. Need more reasons? Chuck Norris' calendar goes from March 31 to April 2...nobody fools Chuck Norris.
