Title: FireFly MMO
Post by: Spriggan on December 11, 2006, 12:54:03 AM

You loved the TV show, you loved the Movie now you can be bored to death by the MMO!

Not much is known but chances are it will make you kill lots of Rabbits, Rats or other small vermin repeatedly until you wish Firefly was never created.

That's a bet I really don't want to take, I like to keep my money.

Nah, it'll get released but suck more flying asteroids than Captain Marvel, Superman, or the Green Lanterns care to take  care of just for the sake of one planet.

Can we put some kind of bet here that'll give and take away from our forum stats? Like maybe a few Fell Points or something else?

The thing is, this isn't even a game yet--it's an announcement that a software developer bought the rights so that when they get around to finish their software, if it's any good, someone else can make a game on it. That's about three layers removed from reality.

In the words of Gabe and Tycho (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/12/11), they're "announcing that in a few years they'll have something to announce."
