Marvel MMO not out till 2012

According to this BigDownload article, Marvel’s “grown up” Gazillion MMO won’t release until 2012.

Apparently the date’s been picked as there’s a bunch of Marvel movie content turning up in the same year.

Given that’s the projected date, and MMOs are the least stable of all development projects, waiting for this is likely to be something akin to “pissing in the wind”.

You haven’t got anything better to do, though. Right?

    Wow. That’s a seriously early announcement. Who the hell do they think they are, Sony?

    World of Warcraft was “announced” three years before it ever hits the shelves. It was quite a different looking game back then to what we ended up with as well.

    MMORPGs have notoriously long development cycles. Considering the degree of content that needs to be developed, and the complicated infrastructures required to run them, that’s not surprising.

    Anyway, it makes sense to launch this around the same same time as the Marvel Movie Marathon (lol) that’s planned for 2011 – 2012. Should be worth looking out for.

    Hmmm…2012? Isn’t that the year when the world ends?
