[MUD-Dev] BIZ: Online consoles and MUDs

[Peter Tyson]

Hi there, I'm new to the list, but it seems a thought-provoking place
so far, so I thought I'd ask a question I've been thinking about for a
while..

Online consoles, we all know it's going to happen eventually, and we
all know that they are likely to be popular (Dreamcast had some.. 25%
of users playing online I believe) and that in time it will definately
be big.

And we know that Phantasy Star showed that the MUD-type game prooved
popular with console audiences..

So what are people's thoughts on the future of online consoles? I
think a strong brand a great game would be very very popular (any kind
of Final Fantasy Online for starters). Getting the game right and the
timming spot-on would be crucial (needs to come out when the services
are available and penetration high enough I guess!).. but potentially
massive

thoughts?

Peter
