I was wondering if any knows if there are any Wrestling MMORPG's that already exist or are being developed.
Right now I'm Playing EverQuest 2 and I'm getting really board with it. The only reason I play it is because it's pretty much the only way to play video games with my friends who live out of town.
Somebody should develop a Wrestling MMORPG for an alternative to EverQuest or Warcaft. They can have stables instead of guilds. instead of 2 opposing cities (good and evil), they can have 2 opposing fictional federations or several federations. In place of quests, they can have public relations with fans, backstage politics and run ins. They could get a bunch of details into the game play to make it time consuming like the other MMORPG's.
I've looked all over the Internet and couldn't find anything like this being developed. I'm sure there are a lot of smarks out there that wouldn't mind playing something like this as an alternative to raw vs smackdown.

It's an interesting concept but I don't know if there would be a willing developer to take a chance on something like that.
But with the success of City of Heroes, it at least shows that catering to Niche Markets can be profitable...
so in other words this post is pretty much meaningless...
But I have heard no wrestling mmorpgs being developed...

it would be cool, but that sounds hard to pull off

it would be cool, but that sounds hard to pull off There would have to be a large amount of developers involved. It would be worth it. There should be a good wrestling simulator out there for the smarks. Not everyone can be a pro wrestler, this would be a good way to live out that fantasy. Plus it being an MMORPG, they wouldn't have to worry about story lines as long as there's a lot of people playing online to start their own feuds, stables and matches. |

Hm...Maybe a hibrid betewen wrestling spirit and the aki games? Perhaps it would be better a multiplayer online version of Total Extreme Wrestling? Now that would kick ass.

I was reading Lance Storm's Q&A the other day and he talks about the idea for the game he pitched to Acclaim when they were making the ECW game. Instead of trying to win the match, you work to try and make a better work rate of a match and get a 5 star match.
I really liked that idea.

I am still mad that City of Heroes never made a "Lucha Hero" powerset. That would have rocked so hard, and I would still be playing. Of course, there's still no endgame experience, so bleh.
