What they mean is that they will revolutionize profits for the developers.

they spent 20 million on this console mmo and they are not going to make their money back on it.

did some looking around, found out they spent 20 million, if I was a shae holding I would pulling out from this company for sure. I would not give them a second look, with my money if I was share holder.

If they borrowed the money from a bank, that bank is not getting their money back any time soon.

what a joke!

Superior, huh? Unless Turbine can figure out how to make a controller and headset superior to a keyboard and mouse then I’m going to have to call bullshit on them. Other genres can get away without keyboard and mouse; MMOs aren’t included among them.

MMO’s gotta be more expensive than normal HD games, becuase they take far longer to develop, and therefore involve far more man hours.

when Turbine lose, what is to make a mmo these days? $100 000 or 1 million making a console mmo. I really hope Turbine does not cry about it over the internet.

please stop comparing a console to a pc. they are far from the same. How meny genres does console gaming have 4 action games,fps,rpg’s and rythem music.

consoles gaming is so far behide pc gaming is not even funny. don’t even get me started. How are you going to do up keeps on a console?

I wonder how dumb down a MMO is going to be on a console? what are you going to do for game play, are you going to use heavy instance? what are you going to do when and if new console come out? will sony and micrsoft still support their old platforms.

MMO’s on consoles is going to be the biggest epic fail. They are going to be so out dated compared to pc gaming mmo’s it’s not even funny.

I can tell you that bio-wares knotor,blizzards new MMO and Guildwars 2 are going to set standards in the mmo world.

things that no console mmo can do and will look pale in they are compared.
