At this rate, we’re going to see way way more MMO launches by TV channels than by videogame companies in 2007. BBC plans online children’s world, says, well, the BBC.

I’d add editorial commentary, except I feel like it’s starting to get repetitive and redundant and repetitively redundant.

    Uh, so what do the kids do in this world? (I’m guessing it’s not a kid’s diku either.)

    And what prevents kids from bypassing BBC’s safeguards and playing runescape instead? (Which has chatting, combat, and stuff to do.)

    This means it’s not only got the lowest time to cock of any game yet but it’s also pretty much a buffet for paedophiles. God only knows what they think they’re playing at.
