"I can say that we don't have plans for Rift going on to the console right now"

Anyway, why not. RIFT is one of the very few MMO that I've tried and really liked. Cool game.

More F2P to choose from sweet!!

People will be forced to use a keyboard and mouse then, because Rift has loads of buttons.

They can make it work with a controller. A Realm Reborn does a great job using a controller

Roccetarius3962d ago

That's because the game was developed with consoles in mind. Rift is not even close to that.

And? They can easily use the same control method and get it working well. Setting a limit for yourself is a terrible thing.

Funny how all of a sudden console gamers care about MMOs, F2P, or indie games

yeah Everquest I and II never came out on PS2...yeah. LMFAO!

FFXIV isn't on PS3 and PS4, DCU isn't on PS3 or PS4 either. MMO's have never been on PS2, Dreamcast or 360, PS3 OR PS4 for that matter.....NEVER.

So true. For years they have trolled PC articles and acted like MMOs weren't really games. They discounted all the exclusives the PC gets, simply because some of them were MMOs or strategy games.

Now the PS4 and Xbox One start to get a few and suddenly they are super cool. What hypocrites.

@EDMIX

Nobody said that the consoles haven't had MMOs before. We are saying that they were few and far between and console gamers basically acted like all the MMOs, F2P and indie games on the PC were just worthless. That they weren't "real" games and therefor all the exclusives the PC got didn't matter. Now everybody acts like these MMOs, indie, and F2P games are just the coolest thing ever.

Interesting because Rift is a really good MMO which recently went F2P and saw an insane boost in playerbase. Would love to see it on consoles as well, although its hard with a controller and really needs a keyboard + mouse.
