SOE: All future MMOGs console-bound

I hope being under the control of SCE will lead to an increase in the quality of their games. SCE has really been stepping up this generation (and they've always kicked ass), but SOE has always been a pretty weak studio, outside of Everquest and that brief period when Star Wars Galaxies was good.

Outside of a few EverQuest spin-offs, their only console games up until this point have been the Untold Legends series, which were garbage.

Agree with this.  I was a big EQ player that played since launch but every other SOE game since then I've tried has been very lackluster.  SW:G was good for a time until they put in the new "experience" and ruined that as well.  I don't have much faith in SOE anymore.  I'm also skeptical about all of these MMO announcements for both 360 & PS3.  I just don't see the control scheme to make a good in-depth MMO. This is one genre that should stick to PC's IMHO.

 

I agree but if they want to waste money on it let them go ahead. I don't really see this enticing anyone who's already into the genre. I only see this targeting console owners that may be curious as to how an MMO is. Kind of like FFXI....
