Actually he was speaking hypotethically about a MMO in consoles being able to beat WOW ,he didnt say they were actually going to manage it .

That would mean that Sony would have to have Half (Sorry info was wrong, 65%) of its PS3's customers playing this new mmo... Guess what it will NEVER happen! I am so sick of Sony trying to make its self look better than it is and lying to our face. They have a good product, a decent online, and a dedicated (to the death) fanbase. Do they really feal the need to keep on lying, sugar coating, or what ever the fuck you want to call this? Info from: http://www.megagames.com/news/html/console/sonyplaystation3mmocouldrivalwow.shtml |

I wonder if SOE could ever get the rights to make The World.
Considering Wow has a userbase almost as high as all PS3's, this is very unlikely.
That, and wow is a cultural phenomenon and has the brand power of Blizzard slapped on it. Overcoming WOW is no easy task.
So you want to insult members Username?
Are you #1 on that list?
OT- SOE must be getting high! There's no way any console with an MMO can beat WOW this gen. ACWii will do good as an MMO. (may be as popular as the Ds version and score 10 million.) But, I still doubt it will touch WOW's massive success!
WOW has had GTA type success! (maybe even more than that.)
Damn things have changed since 2009 began. Here are my new visions for the end of the generation.
Wii: 135 mil
Ps3: 85 mil
360: 60 mil
Starcraft MMO will be the only one MMO to beat Wow
Is Sarcraft MMO made by Sony ?
NO
Then SOE can keep dreaming ...
Time to Work !
| Lafiel said: @ thread creator ) he didn't say "a Sony MMO we will release tomorrow" , so he could be talking about something that releases in 3 years, when the PS3 has an install base of 50-70 million or so |
I guess i did not consider that, thanks. Problem is there will never be more than a 20% share of PS3 owners playing any MMO on the console, some people just hate mmo's, there are over 100 mmo's on the PC's to pick from, that and all the major MMO players are already playing WOW or anouther great MMO on a PC why change to a PS3 to play 1 MMO.
well if they are talking about The Agency, there is a chance if done correctly since its for the PC and PS3.


| Willem said: I'm with Torillian on this one. This threat title and that of the source is a misleading, Sony doesn't speak of WoW in the interview. Further: the online userbase he is talking about are the PS3-owners who are allready registered. In other words: you can have a PC+internet, but that doesn't mean you automatically start playing WoW. That's the advantage he refers to. Register once, and you'll have a universal account to play anything |
ORLY??? Reread the first sentence then speak again "In a recent interview Sony Online Entertainment president John Smedley claimed that a Playstation 3 MMO game could surpass World Of Warcraft's success."
I dont think your head is on right sorry.
