Uh-huh...For one, I don't think anyone is confusing "online enabled" with MMO. That seems like a pretty elitist attitude you have over there...you can "only" play against other people? Gee. A lot of us (most of us?) have NO desire to play MMOs so online play like Halo is a hell of a lot more exciting.If there IS any confusion, it's whether online enabled means Halo play like you were saying or just simple things like leaderboards, etc.

Where do you guys come up with this?Even the president of SNK was TOTALLY WRONG the other day when he said that Nintendo wasn't letting anyone develope online games.I'm guessing you didn't see the story about Nintendo having sent out the online developement kits to 3rd party publishers.<a class="user" href="http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2007/02/12/it-begins-developers-starting-to-get-online-dev-kits/">http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2007/02/12/it-begins-developers-starting-to-get-online-dev-kits/</a>"During an interview with Reggie, he reiterates that Pokemon Battle Revolution is still set to launch the Wii's online functionality in the US. He backs up this statement by also offering up that third parties are now finally starting to receive online dev kits, giving the hope that we could all be enjoying online gaming in the coming months."
"Where do you guys come up with this?"Scroll up. Someone already answered my question. So relax fanboy. As you can see. I got it from here on Digg. Go fig. :P

TMNT on-line multiplayer would be cool even though it's made by Ubisoft

Activision: Please port Kingpin, but make the melee weapons wiimote swing sensitive.
