Well you're kind of right. The reason they've delayed talking about it for so long is that they've had to wait for the Nextbox reveal! It's an Xbox exclusive! 

A trailer of gameplay ,some scans ... please !!

You getting this very wrong. MMO's are doing fine last time i checked. You just happened to highlight the negative titles.

The Secret World, Star Trek Online and Final Fantasy 14 were all bad games when released. In FF14's case they actually still went with a subscription model...which made things worse.

As far as RIFT is concerned it is still doing relatively well for a subscription game. But it will obviously transition to a F2P model. Btw just because a game moved to a F2P model doesnt mean its doing badly...it just means that people are not willing to pay a premium for the game. This was always going to happen especially when about 80%? of MMO's are F2P. Theres no justification for the subscription anymore. Again this doesnt mean MMO's are out.

And like others have said WoW is actually doing well given how long its been out. It is still by far the most played MMO AND its still a subcription based game (after lvl 20 ). Crazy.

Lots of other MMO's are also doing well but you havnt listen them here? Dofus, Perfect World, AION, TERA, LOTRO...all are doing pretty well atm. All happen to be free to play. And then you also get MOBA games which are also considered MMO's like LoL and DOTA 2 doing crazily well. I would also add Diablo 3 and PoE to the list of MMO's doing well.

So i absolutely disagree with you here, GW2 and EVE are not exceptions. MMO's are still doing well and growing just not subscription based MMO's!

“The date for our next reveal is set and we are working toward preparing information for that. Please wait a little while longer.”

That's hardly comforting, the next reveal could be a new trailer, gameplay footage, I'd be more interested if he said "We'll have an official release date soon".

Haha, good point :P

Ditto this.

The funny thing was that a sizable portion of FFXI's loyal fanbase were playing it on PS2s. I was ready to buy FFXIV, as I am a fan of XI online but the delay and original press behind its release definitely spoiled the mood. Also, If MMO devs just weren't so greedy and charged a mild 5-6 a month, they might make headway. Honestly, I would add 6bucks a month for an mmo to my monthly expenses without a problem, $13 on the other hand is way too much. They can't tell me that $6 isn't enough to sustain them when the alternative is they simply going F2P.

Lets not forget the cancelled shit too! (The Last Remnant).

>:(

At this point Versus will ONLY be a reality when I have it in my fat pudgy hands.
