Just want to make sure I have this straight. AoC is going to fail because they have the ability to reach MORE of a player base?

Chatting might be hard but i guess wha they will do is have 360 servers and PC servers. I hope PC gamers can play on 360 servers with a 360 pad.
PC gamers will use keyboard more to chat 360 gamers will use voice. Maybe AoC will do some fancy speach regonition so what you say on your mic will be turned into text? just an idea. |

AoC will succeed because of that very reason. The combat system is designed for a gamepad.
The game is about hack and slash, blood, and boobies. As we can see in the latest gameplay vids, female characters in the game are going to be wearing next to nothing. It'll be a huge success on consoles because of the amount of money the average PC gamer will have to spend just updating his computer to be able to play the game. A 400 dollar XBOX 360 is going to sound pretty sweet, once people start pricing that 400 dollar video card along with that 500 dollar Processor. :) The game will be a major hit among the Console crowd. I honestly think it won't do very well on the PC, but will be sold out on Console. |

I don't think AoC is going to be the big game that everyone is saying it will be, but I think that has nothing to do with the fact that it will be played on console. as far as I know FFXI is doing fine and you can play that on PS2 if you want to.

Jesus saves. Everyone else takes full damage |
I don't understand the logic behind this post. FFXI is a great game and even this far after launch can still be considered a success. You can play that game on both PS2 and 360 and it change the way the game plays.
What is your reasoning for saying it will fail? This I gotta hear. |

I'm not even sure the OP was serious. "Discuss?!". Woo-hoo! what a strong argument for this big claim!
This guy should run for president! Smooth talker, oh yeah! Anyway, the game will be design for both console - using gamepad - and pc - using keyboard+mouse combination. |

OP! If only I could argue as well as you!
Console version will come out 1 year later. The game will be complex, remember AO, was that not complex enough for the average gamer?! AoC will, in my opinion, be the best of 2007. |

It's going to be the next best thing since sliced bread.
It states it's a "Next-Generation" game, meaning it'll bring to the PC everything that console games used to overpower it with. It also means that it's aimed at the higher spec PC's, not the crappy ones. While you say "it's going to be a console game", I highly doubt it. Online games have an always will be better adapted for a PC user than for a console gamer. If you look at the video footage, it's not as "hack and slash" as you might think. Bashing buttons faster will give you no advantage. In all honesty though, i reckon anyone who will want to play this on a console will invest in a keyboard and use it to play instead. It's definately going to be a hit among mmorpg fans, it's one of the first mmorpgs to come out with new ideas and put them to proper use. It offers a new experience that WoW and DAoC can't give you. |
