Firefly Continues On As MMO - update

http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,72263-0.html?tw=rss.index

Like Capt. Mal Reynolds stumbling in after a bar fight, the short-lived but much beloved sci-fi series Firefly will soon make an unexpected return, not as a TV show, but as a massively multiplayer online game.

Now that's shiny.

Multiverse, maker of a free MMO-creation platform, plans to announce Friday morning that it's struck a deal with Fox Licensing to turn the show into an MMORPG in the fashion of Star Wars Galaxies or Eve Online.

I got it from and it seems there is a firefly-MMORPG fan forum starting right now as well.

update: A more detailed press release on PR Newswire
