I have just received the best news EVER in a Bioware newsletter. They are developing an MMORPG - Star Wars The Old republic. Basically a new KOTOR but massively multiplayer! http://www.swtor.com/For me Kotor was one of the best RPGs in the last 5 years & it's good to see it back, especially with the let downs of Neverwinter Nights 2 and apparently Fable 2. Bioware have an awesome track record for RPGs so lets hope they can come up with the goods! |

I've read somewhere that it might only be out on PC though which would suck.  |

Well ya, I thought that was implied considering it's an MMORPG, the MMORPGs that are on the xbox 360 failed, so why would they make one for xbox 360 again.

Yeah it is implied I just hoped there would be an xvox version, and with live it would be awesome. Technically speaking there isn't really a great deal of difference whether it's MMORPG on xbox because it's still using the internet. I hope they re-consider because I really don't want to have to buy a new computer lol. |

Actually there is, the fact that almost every RPG isn't built with chat in it is huge and the fact that you can't type without a keyboard or the xbox keypad sucks.

yeah I know what you mean about that but you could just use voice chat. What I meant was xbox live has the same capability to host the game as and internet server would, & I'm sure if they wanted to Microsoft could develop something to make it work. & it it would be worth it to them because imagine the amount of star wars & rpg fans would buy it. |

When I said chat I meant voice chat, the only MMORPG I have come across that has voice chat is world of warcraft and they didn't release that until recently, I have played so many MMOs and you just can't have a good MMO on a console, there is so much you need to factor in and a big problem is the lack of the number of buttons, all good quality MMOs need hotkeys for your skills and console gaming doesnt have that ability, plus the fact that PC gaming is just so much better than console gaming, you can do so much more on a PC than a console, the only thing the xbox 360 has is the accessibility, I like using a controller in my shooting games over a keyboard but a controller can never take the place of a keyboard in a MMO.
