Richard Garriott on NCsoft's PS3 and PSP gameplan |
Ó
The cat is out of the bag as NCsoft has given word on its plans for both the PSP and PS3. The fact that NCsoft would be producing games for Sony's PlayStation platforms was first announced during E3 but very little details were revealed then. NCSoft's executive producer Richard Garriott gave out a few details to CVG in the Develop Conference in Brighton. He maintained that each title they plan on releasing will be "very carefully created for the console experience, not merely a straight port," adding that "unadulterated ports weren't very successful compared to games that you make sure are really crafted correctly for the console experience."
Ever since online play was introduced on consoles, financially viable MMORPGs have yet to grace the systems. Garriott explained the business models and technology have previously prevented most console companies and online game companies. However, he pointed out that gamers don't care about that. They want to just boot up the game and play. So it's up to the developers and console manufacturers to handle that problem.

Lord British himself... damn, I thought he was gone from the business.
Hm.. nah. Hes still working on Tabula Rasa, and admittingly I havent been following the game, but hes the Exec Producer of NCSoft? Wow.
Who knows.. maybe be some good things coming from NCSoft. They always had pleasant concepts (though not always well executed).
Something like PSO would be perfect for PSP. You can play the game offline when you can't find an access point, or go online and play with everybody else. That way, you can grind your character on the go. Heck, you could transfer to PS3 and pick up the game there.
Ragnarok Online 1 for PSP
Ragnarok Online 2 for PS3/PSN
