DO WANT



Around the Network

I think it's a very important turn of events if they are going to port it to the X360.

Quick example: Oblivion has sold almost 1.5m units in North America alone, and well over 2m globally. This is pretty amazing, because as far as I know, that is about 50% (give or take) of the entire market - PC, PS3, X360. That's pretty huge.

Heck, go look at Two Worlds - it's over 260,000 in North America, and will end up @300k+ add in Europe and 'other' markets, and it could be nearing 500k. That's absolutely amazing for such a poorly reviewed game.

Even though JRPGs are oft-maligned in sales, WRPGs have done thus far. Even Marvel: Ultimate Alliance managed 500k+ in the US alone. Arkadian Warriors, a Siera XBLA RPG, also, has done great numbers thus far.

So it'd be natural for more, and more WRPGs to come console-side. Hopefully they don't "water down the formula" and kill good PC RPGs.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
