Call of Cthulu - Gothic Horror for the WIN!!!!

So much opportunity here, it's hard to know where to start.  I love the IP's ideas -- especially Underworld and Highlander.  Both seem like perfect fits for the MMO world.  I also like the later suggestion for Mass Effect.  That game freaking rocks and would be awsome as a MMO too.

Some random ideas:

1.  Transformers could be cool.

2.  The Dark Stone Trilogy would be cool in a MMO setting

3.  The world of Harry Potter if done right -- not the kid version, but a more adult version. 

4.  Fallout

And my favorite:

5.  Mad Max -- NOT AUTO ASSAULT --

mad max and fallout could be so amazing

Firefly!

Battlestar Galactica would be an insteresting concept, moving quest/mission/social base maybe with content that would fade in and out of the game as galactica moved towards earth? 

I would love to see Garth Nix's Abhorsen series. Unfortunately I don't think enough people have read it.

Forgotten Realms is one of the few things I'd leave WAR for. I think 38 Studios should get to make that one.

some that I would like to see:

Fallout

Dragonlance

Chrono Trigger

Pokemon

Neverwinter Nights (again)

Legend of Dragoon

Zelda

Mad Max

Kingdom Hearts

Wizardry

Castlevania

The Bards Tale

Phantasie

2400 A.D.

BattleTech

(I'll stop here before people start yelling for grandpa to go shut up )

Edit: It's kind of lumped in there, but I did say KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS KINGDOM HEARTS

Might & Magic : World of Xeen ..

Firefly

lol... thought you said wheel of fortune ; )

Underworld would be cool, but like others said CCP is working on a similar or more original game where Underworld is sort of copied from.

I still believe a Bladerunner  could be succesful being made a MMORPG.

Overall I would like to see more darker themed MMORPG's.

For example I wouldn't mind another Lord of The Rings MMORPG but a darker one with more mature looking characters.

Terry Patchett's, Discworld! (books)

Night Breed,(movie)

Night watch/Day Watch,(movie's)

Moon Zero Two,(movie)

Traveller,(rpg)

Carwars,(rpg)

Stormhawks,(cartoon)

Salute the Jugger,(movie)

Mouse Guard,(comic book)

Alien Legion,(comic book)

A few of my choices, :)

I'd like to see a fight club mmo.  doesn't have to be fight club but just a straight up fist fighting mmo with no weapons or magic.  pure combos and realistic fights with some interesting skills like stances and stuff but nothing unrealistic.

 There is an awesome  idea.   I also support the Shadowrun and Battletech/Mechwarrior ideas.

Bladerunner!!! I love the movie but I am having trouble figuring out the MMO. A new storyline would have to be invented and Anarchy on Line is very close to that concept.

Dune and garth nix's old kingdom would make t3h best games ev4r if done right

I'd also hurl my support behind a Firefly MMO.  It seems tailor made to be the ideal game for quite a few people around the boards.  Mixing space travel and classical sci-fi elements with a liberal mixing of elements from the wild west.

Since World Of Darkness Online is already being made there is little point for Underworld, unless they want to get sued again like during the first movie.  (Note:  I still do like the Underworld movies though.)

However, The Night Watch / Day Watch / Twilight watch series via books instead of the movies, which redcap mentioned.  Not that I don't like the movies, I do, but the books (as usual) are much better.  But I still do like the movies.

And definitely, I've said it before and I'll say it again...Shadowrun.  It almost screams MMO, too bad it's been in the wrong hands ever since the glory days of the SNES gem, and yes I know many people like the Genesis one more.  I favor the SNES version myself though.

But those two mentioned above besides WoD, since it's already in development, would fit perfectly for an ongoing, persistent game.

I don't know if it's been said, but I would play a good Harry Potter MMO.

I actually wouldn't mind a Dune based MMO.  Lots of potential there, but ..... if done wrong could make many shy away from it lol.

Wouldn't mind a Resident Evil MMO either.

This theme seems to pop up an awful lot. But in the spirit of it, I will play along.

1) Firefly
2) The Dragonlance series with Tanis and the gang.
3) Mass Effect
4) The SpellSinger series by David Eddings
5) BattleStar Galatica
6) The Terry Brooks series The Sword Of Shanara(SP).
7) Revive Earth And Beyond
8) Shadowrun, not the piece of crap that they released as a FPS not long ago. But, the original NES version that had you breaking into buildings to steal corporate info and such.

We really need a good space MMO like E&B except planets to land on and explore. I could also get into another good racing MMO like Motor City online. EA really had two gems in their grasp with E&B and MCO and in the right hands these two could really take off, I really believe there is a good following for them. My only hope in the future looks to be Star Trek.

I love the Star Wars stuff but the current game and the future one from Bioware do not fit the bill in what I would like to see.
The Agency looks like it might be something I could like, depends on how it is done though. I used to love the game Spycraft, so hopefully this will be something along those lines. Also, another one if done like the original is Shadowrun (not the current crappy FPS one).

Thanks for letting me put up a wall of text.

PS. Anyone from LOTRO know how to get the character signature to work properly here?
