Is Star Wars: The Old Republic heading for Xbox 360? That's what a GAME memo suggests. Developer BioWare, however, has moved to squash the rumors.

 

As you can see in the memo above, the MMORPG is listed for a 2011 Xbox 360 release. BioWare's Sean Dahlberg clarified on however that the game is being developed only for PC at this time, and that's the gaming platform it will be released for.

 

Here's Dahlberg's post on the official TOR forums:

 

Star Wars: The Old Republic is currently being developed for the personal computer (PC) using the Microsoft Windows operating system. While we recognize that there are other operating systems and platforms available for games today, our development is specific to the personal computer using the Windows operating system at this time.

Maybe in the future then?

I see Rise of the White Wolf on that list as well, although CCP has already said they've halted development on that one.

Thank god, certain things should stay only on PC because they dont work very well on a console. MMOs is one (RTS follows in a close second). Especially considering MMOs involve interactions called conversation. Which for most people still involve a keyboard.

they have an attachment for the xbox360 controller to have a keyboard, so it wouldn't be too hard but i agree it would be easyer to have it just be on the computer.

Its not easy, its a bunch of different coding and graphics for each system.. that's one main reason.

And this should def stay PC only, thousands of people agree.... PC is always the best, always, because the parts constantly are upgraded monthly, unlike every 3-5 years like an xbox.
