Marvel Comics must be doing something right now...

Marvel Goes MMPORG
·
· Score: 1
X-men movie came out, Spider-Man, and soon Hulk. And Now, Finally, a MMPORG.
The Article speaks of "wondering how big the market can get," though and I think that statement is kinda silly -- it will end up similar to everything else, Blazingly Popular for a while, then gradually reducing to the dedicated players as everybody else moves on to the next great thing. It'll have to follow the path and example of Quake/Quake 2/ etc. and similar type games in order to keep in the "market."
Now, I understand feelings and tempers are running pretty high right now, but we must be logical and think about what we are doing here.
First, this article has nothing to do with the Horrid WTC and the Pentagon acts of war that were commited last tuesday against. I understand we lost many lives, I too had friends in the navy and other military that were endangered in that attack. I haven't heard from them yet. So, you see I feel your pain, but, Let's keep the comments out of here and posted to the patriotic stories where they belong. Please refrain from off-topic posts to make the moderators jobs a little easier.
Second, It's nice to see support for linux service growing. I was fortunate enough to have a desire to learn and work with *nix when I began working at my company. Many new-hire co-workers were thrust into it. Luckily later, we were given training books to help us teach ourselves as we went along.
