Sounds pretty much like Second Life to me.


Seconded. Second Life pretty much is a virtual economy first and a free-roaming game second. Linden Labs (the creator of Second Life) has a system setup that determines an exchange rate for Linden Dollars (in game currency) with US dollars. You can trade back and forth however you desire.

There are people who pay thousands of real American dollars for pieces of virtual real estate in this "game." They then develop that land with housing, businesses and other virtual amenities and sell it for real profit to other players in Second Life.

In fact, there is an article about a woman who declared her virtual Second Life assets have a net worth of over 1 MILLION US dollars.
