Next Halo Game an MMOFPS?

The latest rumor surrounding the unrevealed Peter Jackson game is that it will be an MMOFPS. You know, a massively multiplayer online first person shooter, like PlanetSide and the upcoming Tabula Rasa and Huxley.

Sandwiched within’ the pages of the December issue of EGM is a new Halo rumor stating that either the Peter Jackson project or Bungie’s next gaming venture could be a FPS MMO. EGM’s rumor mole received special “word” that Microsoft is already busy creating a FPS MMO for the Xbox 360 and that it is tied to Bungie in some way. If one were to take the rumor further, one could speculate that the hush, hush Peter Jackson project or Bungie’s post Halo 3 project could end up being the rumored MMO.

Since one of the 1Up ex-editors now works for Bungie, maybe some - as Tony Reali would say it - “Inside in-fo-MAY-shun”?
