Well here is another odd MMO created, Yes you are right its "Michael Jackson Online the game is actually devoted on the journey of Michael Jackson's as a music icon.
According to Josh Gordon "We put a focus on something that will truly allow fans to immerse themselves in a Michael Jackson-like universe or music-video-like world and interact with each other and then go on adventures and do gameplay stuff and socialize,"
One of the game feature is maps that are inspired from the official music video of Michael Jackson such as Smooth Criminal and Beat it, there'll be no violence on your quests only but dancing.
This MMO actually aims for 13 Years old and above audience seriously? i think this game will be having bunch of critics and will be criticized as long as it exists, especially the developers of the game.
In my own opinion its ridiculous a ridiculous idea, they should've done anything like this and leave the King of POP alone, what is actually the aim of this MMO i dont understand, when the King of POP is still alive he only be criticized by people as Child molester, Messed up face etc. i think this is just a gimmick for the developers to get some quick bucks.
Here's a little press release for ya.
Planet Michael is massive social gaming experience that will allow everyone, from the hardcore fan to the novice, to connect and engage in collaborative in-game activities with people worldwide. Entire continents will be created that will celebrate Michael’s unique genius in a way that underscores his place as the greatest artist of all time. Michael’s long-time fans will feel at home, as they find themselves in places that seem familiar and yet unknown at the same time, and new generations will discover and experience Michael’s life in a way never before imagined."
