    Those guys are hacks who put up pictures of barely clothed women, a teaser headline and a paragraph of conjecture/hearsay/opinion then call it "an article". The National Enquirer has more credibility then those buffoons.

    If this isn't just a wild rumour, I recommend they use wide open space by Mansun for their first trailer...

    I'll take the social media enhanced gaming route for a standard (non-MMO) FPS route.  Meaning that they'll be more participation from the community.  Perhaps easier to search for custom maps like, say, Little Big Planet.  Or customization of random objects or armor like, say, Forza 3.  Just thoughts.

    Remember folks, Activision is behind this one. So if it ends up being successful be prepared for a shit storm of overpriced DLC and endless Gamestop commercials.

    Bungie's best work has always been in multiplayer infrastructure and community, so this sounds like a good fit. Hopefully it'll actually come out (Im looking at you, Huxley)

    Considering Planetside is possibly one of my favorite games of all times (and I think there is rumors of a Planetside 2 around this year?)...I would like to see an mmofps, but they need to get the scale and action right. I'm optimistic though, if anyone could pull this off, it would be bungie.

    If Bungie has the funding (yes) and the fan support (from me at least, yes), then this could really be a big hit. Let's hope they make it fun to play and little to no dice rolls like fallout.

    That could actually be a good thing.  If those people who play Halo see this and it interests them, they're not going to be conflicted by the fact that they're already paying $15 for WoW or another MMO.  If they make it a good FPS experience, this could be huge.

    Blizzard is already working on a scifi-mmo-fps.  Can't be a coincidence.

    Think is Activision's biggest dream, monetizing an FPS through a subscription from the get-go. It would really hard to transition the COD fanbase to that idea but if you start with a fresh IP and make it 'the next big thing' from the publishers of COD then they could rake in the money.

    I'm very interested in what Bungie does next. Reach is my favorite game from last year but I'm not really into MMOs anymore. I've been sucked into a lot of them and haven't really got anything out. They aren't that fun and cost too much and I can't even jump back into the game for a while without paying more. So, I dunno how they'll deal with the payment model but hearing MMO doesn't really excite me anymore. It does the opposite.

    When I started reading this article I was excited to see a potentially decent FPS MMO on the 360 but as soon as I read the part where Activision was running this whole shindig I couldn't help but think the same thing as John117.

    There have been too many rumors about Bungie making some sort of persistent online world FPS for it to not be at least partially true. I have faith in Bungie, so I would expect it to be a very non-traditional MMO, and also probably pretty awesome.

    Activision somehow snagged the license to Huxley and Bungie is going to make it into an actual retail game.

    I would be interested in seeing what Bungie could do.  I know Bungie and Halo are treated as old hat lately but you have to remember the head way they made for the FPS on the console.  Maybe they could further progress the FPS with "MMO" qualities to give us something new without just polishing a turd - APB.

    At this point in my life I've come to believe MMOs are  synonymous with "bad," WoW not being one of the very few exceptions. So unless this is like Planetside, this game can suck it.

    i think a sci-fi fps/mmo could be awesome.  may be a better way to implement mmo on consoles then something like dcuo.

    @EmuLeader: I can see Bungie pulling it off. Its an interesting story that gets the ball rolling on speculation but i think its fair to say that we all just need to wait and see what Bungie does.

    Would it be wrong to imagine that the MMO is "Call of Destiny".

    Nobody has successfully made a MMOFPS. I don't doubt that they would try, but I doubt we'll ever see it as it's not something that would be fun to play.
