Manou,

You must have missed it.  Microsoft stepped in with Turbine and released

Asheron's Call.  Full 3D 500 square miles  of MMPG (Massive multi player

game).  There are 8000 players+ each day, most play more than 40 hours a

month.  With Microsoft redefining the aspect of on line gaming with dynamic

community quests entire superpowers to fight and huge storylines to follow

in each town.  I have played the game for three months and travelled a

fraction of the towns in search of new quests to join and people to hunt

with.  The rumour is that this is a flagship game for a later version which

will have more than 15 000 players, a test bed.  They only have 7 servers

and never bother advertising the game.  It really is a whole world in 3D.

This game will most likely be one of the x-box's flagship games.
