News: EGM predicts FPS-MMO from Bungie?
The Rumor Mill page of EGM's December issue may have just revealed what Peter Jackson's Halo project is all about
OR another seperate Halo FPS-MMO all together:
"Microsoft may start a war--word is they're making a massively multiplayer online first-person shooter for 360. Hmm, wonder what Bungie is up to?"
We know for a fact that Bungie
isn't done with the Halo universe yet and that the newly independent developer
is in on Peter Jackson's Halo project. Since his secret game's genre is still undefined, it's definitely possible that it could be an MMO title. Granted, Microsoft has gone out of its way to refer to Jackson's Halo project as "interactive entertainment" as opposed to a "video game," so this
may be an entirely new adventure in the Halo universe. But, having an unlimited amount of Spartans fighting each other is what I would call interactive entertainment, too.
Furthermore,
what better way is there to introduce the MMO genre to legions of console gamers than to have Halo spearhead the effort? Whether this MMO is part of Peter Jackson's project or is an all-new game, look for the Halo FPS-MMO in the future.
