GizmoFusion.com Writes: When someone brings up the term “MMORPG” whats the first title that comes to mind? WoW of course. Its fair to say that both Microsoft and Sony would both love to bring WoW or anything else Blizzard can dream up to their respective consoles, but until that happens, what about the multitude of other MMORPG’s out there?
League of Legends is quite possible the most underrated MMORPG of them all. With 32 million registered players you can say they know a thing or two about bringing in the crowd and keeping them entertained. Best of all, the game is free. Could MS or Sony benefit if they can bring LoL, or any other MMO, to their console? What do you think?
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
TNS: "A League of Legends game mode, Arena, will return with some major changes that may breathe some life for a stagnant game."

If anything it will be on ps3, because thats where the MMO's are.
^^
Lol. This is LoL we're talking about!
LoL is not a MMORPG? Its a MOBA game.
Also as much as I love LoL it would not work well with a controller, also I've been playing the DoTA2 beta and so far I can see myself putting more time into that than LoL
Many gamers around the world have played for hundreds of hours FPSs online, so MMOs should work very well on consoles.
