Persistent Environments Poll at Gamespot
The world still hasn't decided what exactly to call massively multiplayer games yet. Gamespot is currently running a poll to find out which genre of computer games people think would best fit a massively multiplayer game (many thousands of players in a universe that runs 24 hours a day). They cover all the main bases and even differentiate between "flight simulation" and "sci-fi combat simulation." Role-Playing Games (like Ultima Online) currently have a substantial lead.
