While rumors swirl about an EA/Take-Two takeover, the company’s programmers are quietly working on a new MMORPG based on William Stryon’s book Sophie’s Choice. Set in post-war Brooklyn, the MMOPRG will introduce a new “moral” game engine that encourages nuanced thought and reactions to real-life scenarios. While you can never play as Sophie or Stingo, you can interact with their characters. The game will not touch upon the more controversial aspects of the book and movie but should instead focus on the lifestyles and mores of an era shattered by war and riddled with moral ambiguity. Jack Johnson will be supplying some of the soundtrack and Meryl Streep is slated to do some introductory voiceover work. More info as we get it.
