Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis are two of my most favorite television programs. I watch them any time they are on. In my geeky way, I feel that I know the Stargate universe rather well.

Needless to say, when Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment announced that they are working on an MMO based on the Stargate universe, I was giddy as a schoolgirl. They have named it Stargate Worlds, and I hope and pray that they make it good. It will be a welcome change from all of these fantasy-based elf games.

There’s not much information about the game yet. It isn’t going to be released until the fall of 2008 at the earliest, so I have plenty of time to learn about what they are going to do with it. I think the opportunities are endless when you’re working with an IP like this. They have 10 years worth of SG-1 shows to take ideas from. I am excited at the thought of going to a completely different type of world and environment each time I step through a stargate. The possibilities and gaming experiences are practically endless. If they build it right, we’ll have a huge variety of worlds to go to, each possibly requiring a different play style to get things accomplished.

We have a long time to go before we find out how this game plays. You can be certain that my eye is firmly placed on this upcoming MMO. I pray for goodness.
