AwesomeInTheory, on 08/03/2008, -1/+1Two things that weren't really addressed in the article: 1, SIGIL and freaking Vanguard. When you're making games like THAT, no wonder you aren't going to expect success. 2, World of Warcraft is being held up as the benchmark, which is retarded, IMO. The Marvel MMO that was in the pipeline was canned because they didn't think they could get 10M subs. No duh.

Microsoft and consoles in general should forget about trying to tap into the MMO market. Console gaming isn't the best environment for MMOs, IMO. FFXI was a great game, but could've been a billion times better if it was developed exclusively for the PC.

Oh well
