We've seen some games get converted, or being converted, into MMO format. Final Fantasy XI, World of Warcraft, ect. Well, I think it's about time that I introduce some games I think would be absolutely awesome if it were turned into an MMO.
Shadow Hearts
Taking a look into an alternate history would never be more sweet. Even more so towards fans of sick-and-twisted-looking monsters, horror-comedy, ect. Aside from that, the chance of making your own mark in history books wouldn't be passed up towards those who have longed to make one.
Guilty Gear
Alright, so I'm a bit of a sucker for GG. But still, it would chime well with those who like fictional-futuristic settings. I'd personally like to see what it's like in the world that the series is set in.
Disgaea/Makai Kingdom
Since this series is primarily about assembling your own army, and MMOs are about making your own character, I am sure this would work. As for spritage, how about the similar style of Ragnarok Online?
----------------------------------------------------------
Be sure to make some suggestions of your own.

Disgaea all the way! Instead of clans and the like, players join parties and can vote in the Dark Assembly. It would be so frickin' awesome. Persona or Digital Devil Saga True, Atlus has an online MegaTen game for PC, but you only play a normal human. Being able to conjure alternate selves or becoming a demon to raise hell would be hella cool. Destroy All Humans! I like the whole evil alien looking to conquer Earth thing. Taking that online and the shear chaos... Be a Furon, one of the various human types, or Blisk and struggle to dominate the Earth. Thinking about fighting on the ground while the factions fight it out in the air... Now it would be cool if the buildings could be entered and combatants can exchange fire from inside and outside. Parasite Eve The sequel was a bit of a bust, but if they improved the combat system and tweaked it as needed for on-line play I think it could happen. Duking it out in modern, real-world locations was one thing that sold me on the first game. The one problem would be creating variety in weapons and classes for variety, but I think it could be done. Xenosaga This franchise might be able to compete with Phantasy Star for best futuristic MMORPG. I'm just throwing the idea out there. Playing a Ziggy-like cyborg and cruisin' for robot chicks between fighting bad guys appeals to my baser instincts

Mana Series
For some reason, I get the feeling the plotline's the same-ol' since Secret of Mana; guy has to save the world from evil tyrant who seeks to rule it/already rules it and girl ends up sacrificing herself to save tree. If that flaw gets put aside for this game should it go MMO, it would be better. (I mean, if any played mana girl ends her game by dying completely, that would suck). Aside from that, I kind of think it would be awesome in terms of Spirit Usage, ect.
Threads of Fate
Meh, there could of been a sequel to the original game. From what I've seen, it was pretty great, with unique story and everything. A translation into MMO would do it the most justice.

FABLE
C'mon...this explains itself. Fable, with it's "be your own man" gameplay and physics, would make for an awesome MMORPG. Just the thought of actual users taking over and running towns and cities makes me giddy already, but think of the PVP that this game would offer! Full-scale battlefields, ambushes, and even betrayal would probably work it's way into the mix! =D
LEMMINGS
Shut up. I can see you snickering. But think about it...if made the right way, a Lemmings MMORPG wouldn't completely suck. Being able to either be a Worker (all the regular Lemmings abilities like dig, build, mine, block, climb), a Soldier (these guys would have paintball guns.), or an Elemental (one of those new guys from Revolutions who can walk on water and fire.)

Lunar It was always a fun series, though it seems like it hasn't been taken anywhere. There are few games which have the same kind of humor and are consistently funny. Bringing the themes and good natured fun into an MMORPG would be something to see.

Soul CaliburUpon seeing the Sword of the New World trailer, it got me thinking that something along the lines of a Soul Calibur MMO would be awesome, maybe with some stuff inspired from the SotNW game. I like things that get me pumped for some reason KirbyEither it was watching the first Atelier Iris Opening too many times or Meta Knight's introduction into Super Smash Bros Brawl, but it would be decent to introduce a cute-ish MMO without anything Hello Kitty related.

Crash Bandicoot
All I'm thinking about with this is getting up close and personal with Crash and the series' universe (and the other characters of the series). Oh, yeah, and being able to create your own animal-charrie.

Soul Calibur would be interesting, no doubt. But I do think that the online features will be plenty satisfying.
Mega Man Fighting other players and stealing their powers to use on other players... I dare you to tell me that wouldn't be fun.

Mega Man.EXE: It already has a set up that would make it perfect for an online game. Create your own netnavi and see how far you can go in the world. =P
Monster rancher: Once agian, it has a good set up. They'd just need a hell of a lot more monsters and a few tweaks. I would love to see one like this.
and....I can't think of anymore at the moment. =P
