" SEE Virtual Worlds and the Michael Jackson estate have teamed up to launch a massively multiplayer online game based on the late pop singer. Slated for late 2011, Planet Michael aims to provide an interactive gaming and social experience that celebrates the artist&amp;#039;s life and work. The project will serve as the first world in a virtual reality universe of connected planets based on existing licences. It will be themed on visuals inspired by Jackson&amp;#039;s music, life and humanitarian efforts. &amp;quot;We envisioned a magical, enjoyable place that will capture that zest for fun and life that was at Michael&amp;#039;s very core,&amp;quot; said SEE Virtual Worlds CEO Martin Biallas.  &amp;quot;Throughout his extensive career, the King of Pop was well-known for his visionary contributions to music, dance, fashion, entertainment and philanthropy, and it was critical that we somehow incorporate all of those elements into the game.&amp;quot; Planet Michael will be free to download, though the MMO will be funded in game transactions. Players will also be able to make charitable contributions while playing. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
