World of Warcraft on the 360? 'Fraid not... |
Ó
Mr. Moore also said the demands of MMOs in consoles, "the content constantly needs to be refreshed. There's patches, there's updates. We could do it ... but it's always been a keyboard-and-mouse, kind of lean-in experience. You look at 'Guild Wars,' you look at 'WOW,' obviously. ... Now, we're going to an MMO with Marvel. I think that is a nice bridge because it's familiar characters and a familiar environment, a kind of comic-book look and feel. But for a lot of people, still, MMOs are a little too intense and a little geeky at times (to make sense for a console)."
From that alone, it seems that WoW and other MMOs are not yet a good fit for the consoles...for now. And now, it was Blizzard's turn to say for the nth time that "no, we are not making Warcraft for Xbox 360". This again was caused by a Vivendi presentation wherein the WoW publisher and official rights-holder announced that all future Blizzard games would be massively multiplayer online games.
The denial continued with Blizzard saying that "we do not currently have any MMO development plans beyond the upcoming expansion for World of Warcraft...Furthermore, we don't have any intentions to focus on only one genre or platform with our future games." But you know what they say about rumors that don't die down - if there's smoke there's a fire. It may not be true for now, but in the future, we'll never know. Until then, we will keep you posted.

wtf are they talking about? How can they say theyve really done well... when there really havnt BEEN ANY YET. The first one Everquest online adventures SUCKED, and even everquest players hated it. It was a watered down version of EQ. Then you have FFXI on PS that made ppl pay $99 for a HDD that was hard to find. $99 games usually dont sell fast. So what are they basing this nonsense?
I agree with #1. Plus, ive really been looking forward to a 360 mmorpg, I didnt really like FFXI
