Pirates of the Caribbean Online, DC Comics Online

I just thought I'd mention big MMOs based on popular properties that MMORPG.com isn't covering yet:

Pirates of the Caribbean Online (summer, 2006)

DC Comics Online (TBA 2007)

http://pc.ign.com/objects/754/754948.html

There's also Warhammer Online and Star Trek Online, which the site is so far only covering by message boards, but not yet in the database.

There's a few other high profile MMOs I've heard about (like Marvel Comics MMO), but they're for the consoles, not the PC, and as far as I can tell, MMORPG.com is just a PC site.

Yep, but like I said, according to IGN, Marvel is aiming for the 360 as an exclusive apparently.  The DC Comics game though, is apparently both PC and the PS3 (like Final Fantasy XI on PS2), which puts the two in competition, console wise.   

Marvel MMO (360): http://xbox360.ign.com/objects/760/760103.html 

DC Comics MMO (PC): http://pc.ign.com/objects/754/754948.html 

DC Comics MMO (PS3): http://ps3.ign.com/objects/755/755358.html

They're obviously both trying to play catch up after missing out on the City of Heroes gravy train.  I know Marvel's plans go back several years, they easily could have had their game out before CoH if they tried, but it looked to me like they didn't really believe in MMOs at the time.
