Microsoft might be working on 300,000 MMO and next Xbox
A job advertisement with Microsoft has appeared to hint that the software giant is working on the successor to the Xbox 360 and also a massive multiplayer online game that’s capable of hosting 300,000 players. That many players are at the same time. Most MMO games use multiple servers to each host a small fraction of the overall players in the game. EVE Online is the only single server MMO. That has around 300,000 players but only 50,000 of them have ever been online. With the motion-sensing peripheral widely expected to be released at E3 next week, this surely has one thing; Microsoft is taking the casual gaming arena very seriously and also even more seriously the online gamers area.
