Do you think that the Xbox 360 will ever get a MMORPG? I hope they do but it better not suck. I heard on the PS3 that Resistance: Fall of Man supports 32 players but it has alot of lagging. Do you think the Xbox 360 could support a MMORPG?

R:FoM is not an MMORPG at all.  its just an FPS that has a lot of players...

Correct. And 360 already has a MMORPG, Final Fantasy XI.

I really think the option should be there, I think WoW could be ported easliy the only difficulty being the controles (could be replaced with kb&m) and addons. Maybe some others, but it would get costly paying for XBL and a WoW subscription, maybe they would offer a discount to XBL members or something. But really how do you confuse Resistance Fall of Man with MMORPGs? lol

360 already have Final Fantasy and Phantasy Star Universe.  They're also planning to release Huxley (MMOFPS) that would support up to 100 players if I remember correctly, and also a MMO Marvel Universe game.  I'd stick to PC for MMO's and RTS's though, but out of the other two consoles the Xbox 360 is steps ahead and been ready for a MMORPG.

mmo's on a console never seem to work out, though i wish they would cause my pc isnt up to snuff....at all (i rly have to upgrade, im thinking of getting a nvidia geforce 8800 gtx and...uh, other stuff, havent put that much thought into it)

oh, and resistance isnt an mmo, its just a shooter with a lot of players....and its never rly lagged on me that much

Well m$ is coming out with a mini keyboard attachment for the bottom of the 360 controller, just what every mmo port needs.

Food for thought?

thats what i was thinking, with a keyboard you have almost limetless controls.

I also apolagise for my previous statement, i just dont like WoW cus i have seen what it does to people, people can get way too involved.

Why would we buy that if you can just buy a 10 dollar usb keyboard or plug in your current usb keyboard into the 360? Probably a lot easier to use as well

MMO for consoles are no problem, aslong as there are specific x360 servers. Just doesn't work if PC people play with/against console right now, the awkward controls will always be a big disadvantage for the console player. But if all are playing with the same handicap, there shouldn't be a problem. I can easily see how WoW would work for x360, especially with the keyboard addon for extend quickbar usage.

Well true but if you're using a keyboard you can't use the controller at the same time, but with the attachment the keys are at your thumbs.

I'm going to stop quoting now but what if you only had to buy the KB?

I mean alot of people have WoW accounts (me being one of them, inactive atm), but I wouldn't want to buy the game again, so a solution for that would be is you login with your account and they make the game Downloadable via Market Place? True for many who don't own the game would have to buy the kb+the game but they could also do a bundle to save some money.

I never meant Resistance was a MMO. I thought it had the most players online playable.

R:FoM does for an FPS on a console.  its just weird that you talked about MMOs, and then mention R:FoM.  it looked like you were indicating that R:FoM was an MMO.

The thing is not whether it can handle it technically, its whether or not a console can make it work and whether or not people will buy it. I say no, but I certainly would like to be proven wrong (FFXI doesn't count that game is a flop.)

If a RPG can play on the 360 then a MMORPG can too.

Who cares, MMO's suck.  They are never ending time sinks.  Go fetch this, go kill this, xp grind, xp grind, more fetch and kill

quest, xp grind xp grind.  It's boring.  The whole point of the game is to point and click over enemies enough times so that

the numbers that appear over your enemies head increases, and the numbers over your head decrease.  MMO's are 

****in work, not video games.

Final Fantasy
Phantasy Star Universe

Dragonball Z MMO
Huxley
Marvel MMO

The few they have or are getting sound like they will do well.

PSO is horrible, Huxley?  Eh, haven't seen too much of the combat but it seems like a twitch shooting run and gun, not at all having to do with tactics, and FF XI is the biggest time sink ever.

WoW's PvP is a blast.  try playing an MMO (for more than 15 minutes) before you pass judgment acting like you know what you are talking about.
