GDC: 10 Reasons NOT to Make MMOGs

Posted by chrisd on from the he-tasks-me dept.

Warrior-GS writes "Gordon Walton, who helped create such games as Ultima Online and the Sims Online, is at the Game Developers Conference giving a seminar on "Ten Reasons You Don't Want to Run a Massively Multiplayer Online Game". GameSpy has been providing coverage of GDC, with several game previews and several conference reports. They also have a hands-on report of the Nokia N-Gage from four of their editors, and a somewhat unorthodox report of the Game Developer Choice Awards, where Metroid Prime was named Game of the Year. The convention continues through Saturday."

    "The rare evening news conference, just
    the second of the Bush presidency, came
    as the United Nations prepared to hear
    another report from chief weapons
    inspector Hans Blix this morning, and as
    U.S. allies including France, Russia and
    Germany appeared to be hardening their
    stance against war."
