As has been said in this thread a few times, people like you won't have done I have a soon to be 12 year old son so I've seen a few games come and go on his laptop.

Club Penguin : Gamine Expedition: Club Penguin Is Now the Second Most Profitable MMOG and Extremely Happy Feet: Disney Acquires Club Penguin For Up To $700 million for now, Disney paid $350m up front for CB and options for up to another $350m if it hits certain targets. At the point of purchase it in 2007 it had 700k paying subscribers. Other links are suggesting they had revenues between $50-$150million in 2008 which suggests roughly 1-3m paying subs.

Can't seem to find much info on Roblox, I know my lad has been playing it for a year or so and it seems 1/3 of his class dip in and out of it as well. When the Lego MMO is close to launch I presume their lawyers will be taking a really close look at it though, it has more copyright infringements going on than a torrent site

Anyways, thanks for the USA Today link, laddo is in Free Realms beta as we speak
