Yes there are. Take a look at Sony's EverQuest and Microsoft's/Turbine's
Asheron's Call. Both of them are quite popular and attract large numbers
of players. Of the two, EverQuest is the "oldest" by six months or so--AC
just moved out of beta two weeks ago, an event preceded by a true
Armageddon experience when a huge comet slammed into the world (I know, I
was there...).
