That's real shiny, Captain.

I so hope they don't screw it up. Otherwise, every Browncoat in the Verse will be after them.

Yep, read about it this morning.

I'd rather want the show back.

Same, but for now that looks like it isn't gonna happen.

The Firefly world was pretty standard generic scifi. The cast and episode plots are why people watched. Plus, this is being pushed out by the licensing company with an unknown dev studio at the helm. This will either suck or never make it to the store shelves.

I feel very out of character when I say this but....
With Reavers who rape your corpse after they kill you, morally acceptable prostitution, and frequent justification of theft, I think this would be an MMORPG that I definatly wouldn't kids playing. Ever.

It's strange. I don't feel this way when I hear about say - postal or gta... but I do about firefly. Maybe it's becuase of the content AND target demographic most MMORPGs seem to have, maybe it's because part of the idea of the show was to question conventional morality and children (who seem to be a large part of the MMORPG demographic) are still having their ideas formed... but I still feel very hypocrticial about feeling iffy about this game.

I'm all for both, actually
Firefly/Serenity is my one exception to my "Sci-fi bores me" rule...an MMORPG, a truly good MMORPG would be fantastic, I think. Maybe the popularity of the game, if it did get popular, could inspire them to bring the show back o.o Ooh, and maybe they could have TV events echoed in the game, or visa versa! Hah, the possibilities, oh the possibilities!

Edit: Although reading further into this, I'm not too keen on them abandoning the main characters. I mean, that's what really made the series fun...wah.

No, I'm making a gooey mess in my pants because I love Firefly.

Don't mind Kait, he/she/it is rather odd.

Compared to the other people here, that's an achievement.

I'd rather play WOW and watch BSG.

sorry, I never came close to liking Firefly, and I still don't know why people are obsessed with it.
