    Bioware and THQ need to halt development on their MMOs. Both of those projects have the smell that they were greenlighted under the expectation of netting a million+ regular subscribers. They will NOT hit or even come close to those numbers.

    The Star Wars source material does not lend itself to, and is not suited for, an MMO. Bioware needs to fold up TOR, salvage what assets they can, and move it into KOTOR 3.

    THQ/Vigil do not have the funding or the time to implement the Warhammer 40K universe properly nor do I believe that the tech is ready for it. THQ needs to stop funding the WH40K MMO and reallocate that money to other projects.
