umm...right...
seriously though, you don't need a brain implant to enjoy an RPG, you just have to make it not as turn based...or better yet...just have halo 2, but an MMFPS how cool would that be? you and your crew can spawn at your own base, and you can go around killing blue (or red) guys as a part of the massive civil war to gain flags, or blow up the enemy base, or hold a skull for the longest ammount of time. YEAH!
I believe one of those already exists. It's called socom, us navy seals, or something like that.
no, nothing like it actually exists. and is popular right now.
they tried to have a rip off of halo in some Massive Multiplayer First Person Shooter, forget what it was called though...planet side? i played a tral version of it a looong time ago...like 2001 or maybe 2002. everything looked like halo 1 though, the warthog looked the same, you could fly this pelican rip off. but in general the game sucked. and it was never really all that popular.
it would be freaken sweet if they make halo 2 massive muliplayer online. i don't mean team matches either, i mean you can travel alone, join up with people in a part, go out, raid... the blue team...basically fight a massvie civil war between red and blue...
When I read the first post, I thought, "Wow! That's a really cool idea!" But after reading the rest of this, and thinking about the game itself....on second glance, it probably wouldn't work out too well. Even though I thought it was cool at first glance, I would never play "The World", because I detest online games, paying money for them. And there's plenty of people who agree with me. Like someone else said, there really is too many online games out there right now. I think the whole game within a game thing works perfectly for the PS2, offline. Meh.
:D
you have to admit though, in spite of what we discussed about the drawbacks. it's kinda ironic that a game based on an online game would not support actual online gameplay.
if it supported online play from the get go with the whole game being as it is already, each sucessive disk adding more stuff like an expansion pack, it could have really took off...then.
now it would just be another gimmick to get us to buy into another detestible game based on leveling (best business model for online games EVER!) that also tries to get you to buy sucessive disks for the story, and to get new expansion pack stuff exclusive to that new addition.
Though it would probalbly sell better than it did back then if they released it like that now. lol.
