Terrible MMORPG ideas

A superhero mmo is an excellent idea.

But some IPs, if converted into an Mmo, would possibly be utterly silly.

If I was a multibillionaire, I'd happily squander a few million to develop ludicrous games just to see the hilarious bad reviews:

Final Destination - for players with terminal altitis
ET the Extraterrestrial - I'd make this pvp-focussed
Pacman - 2D, original graphics, expand the maze to gogsmtic proportions, players are either pacmen or ghosts
Tic tac toe - er...
Kafka's The Trial - no instructions, no levelling, no point
Eastenders the MMO.

Anyone got any more?

Schrödinger's MMO - You are simultaneously having fun & not having fun at the same time.

Peanuts - Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of the gang are all here, unfortunately you must play the game as Woodstock.

Where’s Waldo - 60+ zones, all the size of Indy Port, go find him.

Wizard of Oz - Your playing choices are munchkin or flying monkey.

Quantum Leap - You’re Al the Hologram.

Gilligan's Island - You’re Professor Roy Hinkley, you can build anything out of Coconuts & Bamboo (…except a raft).

PvP Game Mary Poppins vs Nanny McPhee Deathmatch - You play an unruly child.

Any MMO built with consoles in mind.

Especially if it limits you to three colors per character.

Especially if everyone has the same face.

Waterworld Online (couldn't find the Simpsons clip of their take on the arcade version)

What was that Tom Hanks desert island movie? Each player is on his own island, f2p players don't get any globals.

Any MMO that currently exists, but the only players allowed are gold sellers.

Politics Online - Full on PVP MMO from the second you log in

Icecapades....The MMO
Beauty Pageant...the MMO. Where people catfight/pvp amongst themselves to be the most pretty. They then talk about each other behind their backs. (Course...this coud be just a virtue CC under atlas)

Patent Trolling Online - the game engine allow nearly all kind of character design and combination of powers (you can make a 6'9" winged muscular woman in 80s fashion using genetic engineered man-eating corn as primary power if you wish), but other players may have patented something that might look or behave as your concept, and you need to delete your character.

"Sorry, John Doe have patented the concept of magic fireballs, please delete your Godly lvl 50 character or face trial"

Oooooh!

Bubble Bobble....the MMO.

Dora the Explorer - Has only three zones that must be passed through in a specific order with only one quest per zone.

<Name Redacted> - A superhero MMO that doesn't let you create your own character.

Waiting for Godot: an existential MMO. - Would have the most robust chat engine in the industry but no movement powers of any kind.

Equus: the Game. - Would appeal to some of the odder Pocket D denizens.
