I think its a MUD (Multi User Dungeon)... think evercrack without graphics.. and theyre still very much alive... MUDS were one of the first truly multiplayer games. Whether theyre boring or not depends on whether you like it. Theres Diablo muds, Starcraft muds, Godwars (pure player kill), hack & slash medievil theme... pretty much a mud for anything.. including pokemon and harry potty...

Here's a little ode to one of the best games ever, XCOM: Terror from the deep.
(a strategy game. You have to build a base & command troopers who kill aliens with guns you have to research & buy. you can also buy them different types of armor, including a 'flying' suit. and you can use motion trackers... those lucky b*obscenit*ards are able to carry medpacks though. ;p )
