Will 1999 ever happen again?

The next MMO that will really hook people will be something that uses VR. Till we finally get full body immersion capsules that let you feel some of your characters sensations.

You mean... Second life? Oh you said "next", not previous or current.

I'm holding out for AR rather than VR. AR = Augmented Reality. Something like Ingress but using AR glasses/headset.
AR headset = transparent light-weight glasses, maybe plugged into a smart phone. VR Headset = Darth Vader helmet tethered to a toaster oven.

This. I've seen ingress players that Def rival eq in terms of how hardcore they play.

Augmented reality games are onto something huge.
