EA has said that they are open to the idea of an HP MMO. Although i lost interest in the books and i gave up after the second film the idea of killing loads of HP fans in PVP does sound too good to resist. If PVP was included...

So, your thoughts? Would you try it out of one was made. Come on, when we all finished book one we all wished we were there in Hogwarts (i was 9 so thats normal).

This does sound really feasable! They'd have to reproduce a pretty large chunk of the UK to make it authentic, though!

Wouldn't they also have to produce Scandinavia too, because doesn't Voldemort go there at some point?!

And I also am terrible at Geography, more so than my friend who took Geography for his GCSEs though (I didn't, I'd rather do something that didn't bore me to death, like death).

You suck. Geography is important. Not something I'd invest in past GCSE level, but to the point where I know where most of the countries in the world are!

Glance at an atlas once in a while, or play a spy Game with someone on Google Earth. Great way to learn.

Hopefully it would be done LOTRO style where the story of the books and yours are woven into one.

Yeah that would be pretty cool.

I think if they can pull the Graphics off and the other key features to the game then it will be a outstanding game (But i guess you can say that about any game).

a really geeky but funny feature would be the inclusion of a headset and you'd have to speak the latin name of the spell to cast it after pushing it's appropriate key. At least we'd learn another language in the process.

Yeah but they would spend more time on it then they did in R6V as it would be a main feature. not just an extra. (They could make it both) But lets not get carried away as it is just speculation.

true, its still fun to specualte though and i would be surprised if the MMO was made. The actors wuld get a bit more money and so would Rowling and EA so its a win for all of them to do it.
