Hero's Song just failed. The market is flooded with mmos. I hope John didn't promise another WoW with a million subs, that isn't going to happen Smiley: twocents

Dave Georgeson would have been a lot better pick IMO.

I thought they were bringing him on to work on New World

But apparently not... I find it slightly unsettling that Amazon now seems to be working on 2 MMOs. They already have a record of everything I buy, read, and listen to. Now they will add to that all of my virtual activities in their MMOs. I can actually imagine NPCs coming up to me and reminding me to re-order laundry detergent.
