Even Arnold Swartzenegger’s character knew going to Mars was a shitty idea, but apparently Avatar Reality Inc. backed by some of the biggest Execs in the gaming industry feel that the MMO market is just clamoring for a prettier version of Second Life.
They’ve also claimed the exclusive and coveted title of the first licensee of CryENGINE™2 for use in creating a MMVM (Massively Multiplayer Virtual World), although we’d figures there’s a few other MMO CryENGINE developers that’d probably dispute their PR wordplay.
If there’s a viable business model here we’re not seeing it. At least Sony’s HOME is a central virtual world within their PS3 community.
