Call of Duty and GTA MMO?

Well it seems like just about everyone wants to make a MMO these days. A few days ago EGM did an interview with Rockstar found, Sam Houser, who had this to day about a possible GTA MMO.

"is very, very doable and is a very, very compelling proposition."

And a few days before that CEO Bobby Kotick of Activision stated this about Call of Duty,

"What would be the natural evolution of a property like Call of Duty into a massively-multiplayer environment and how do you monetize that?”

Although it#DY#s just talk at this point in the game, I do think both of these games could be made into successful MMOs. Lets theorize at what these games might be like.

Call of Duty MMO

No doubt a Call of Duty MMO would be a FTSMMO. While many have tried, most notably Planetside, none have really created a widely successful FPSMMO. Huxley is the next game to give the genre a go and while the graphics do look amazing, that does not mean the gameplay will match. Call of Duty already has a huge following and if the already popular multiplayer maps can be converted into one massive battle field I have no doubt that a Call of Duty FPSMMO would be a huge success.

GTA MMO

I think turning GTA into a MMO would be much harder, I mean you can#DY#t have 1000 gangsters running around killing everyone including themselves, it would just be mayhem. Perhaps making cops playable characters would balance the game and turn it into more of a cops vs robbers scenario. I don#DY#t know, that#DY#s the first I could think of.

What do you guys think? Would would these games make good MMOs?
