Take a look, this could be interesting if you loved the show, and I know you all did.

I absolutely love the show and the movie but the MMO is going to tank. The MMO market is extremely crowded and competitive already. The Matrix Online MMO is about to die as well as several others.

Matrix, o god let me guess there is 50000 Neo's on there. Why the ehll would anyone ever even bother with that one lol as everyone well want to be the same characters.

If its one in the firefly universe and not specific to the ship, then I can see this one working. You can be a alliance member, a person for fire (firefly crew ides), bounty hunter, sheaf of a town, da da da. There is lots of areas to go and things to do. but matrix just seams wrong lol, and i Love the movie (first was great, second ok, 3rd was good just for the CGI)

Meh. I wonder what MMO engine or system they will use? I'm not sure how well it will turn out if the players can't touch the likenesses of the main characters? Maybe they would get to play as Reavers or Browncoats, and the GMs / game designers would play as the main characters? I'll have to check back and see what features (Ground combat? space combat? Black Market? Quasts?) it will have.
