If you could get thousands of gamers back on to one dead muliplayer game, which game is it?

YES! FOR THE WIN! God I played that game for more than seven years. Started out on Fairy, moved to Odin with some friends, then Odin became Hades when the servers merged. I ended up leaving not long after Abyssia came out, I got a new job and didn't have the time to play nor a strong enough Internet connection to play any sort of MMO. I really wish I could go back, but I don't have the money and I don't have the time to get a character leveled up again to do all the endgame stuff and stories I never finished.Fluoxetine said:
Honestly, I'd like to see Ghostbusters with a big online community. That game's story mode was great, but the online was actually surprisingly fun.
I played it for a bit when the game first came out, but the online games got pretty sparse pretty quick.

Space Marine, not for the fact that I want people to play the game, but because I want THQ to put more effort into Dark Millennium and make it the game 40k fans need.
I kind of had a similar idea, except it's Halo 1 because I want to use the pistol. So much fun to be had.Marik2 said:
Isn't there a Source version of the game? It isn't dead to my knowledge, but I don't know the difference between the two.Tien Shen said:
Go play Red Orchestra 2. Far more realistic, good number of people playing, bigger maps, lots of fun. There are few things more fun then storming a building with an SMG in that game against a bunch of people with rifles who didn't expect you coming. Sweeping out rooms, only to have the last one in the room turn around and just catch a glimpse of you standing at the door before being caught in your fire.Tien Shen said:
There was a slightly dated online game called Space Cowboy, it was really quite fun. I hadn't really ever played a game like it, it was like a MMORPG setting but you had a spaceship looking thing and you leveled up that instead. the dogfights in pvp were quite fun, all the combat parts in the game were way different then anything i had played at the time. But one day the servers just went down and the game was done, I haven't heard a peep about it since.
I don't know if thats what you meant when you said "dead" but thats the best example I can think of. It's too bad because that game had a lot of potential to be something pretty cool.

Kirby Air Ride. That had online but no one used it. It would be fun to have a good community for it.
The Ship, easily most unique, engaging multiplayer game I've ever experienced, sadly it never really had a thriving community (except for maybe a few promotional free weekends on steam). I had hoped Bloody Good Time (the studio's follow up) would finally fill that void, but the more laxed approach to the security systems, the simplification of the needs and inventory systems, and the smaller variety of weapons really watered down the whole experience, not to mention the goofier tone really undermining the tension inherent in core gameplay concept.
My brother, my uncle and I absolutely loved going monkey-shit ape-nuts on the AI bots, which is something I'd love to see more of in multiplayer games of today. The only thing I hated about it was when my brother got the Sci-Fi Handgun. That ricochet alt-fire was ungodly in his hands. He'd fire ONE shot and about 48 ricochets later it'd find my head WITHOUT fail.Mariakko said:
Even on maps that'd have no ceilings. >.<
Myth 2 soulblighter... The game still has tournaments 12 years running and a tonne of new players would give another ten years to its enormous longevity belt.
Sniper : ghost Warrior because I am sadistic and would like to make everyone suffer bu inflicting on them one of the worst multiplayer game mode ever.
