Today GamerZines talks MMO's and consoles with the executive producer of Lord of the Rings: Online, Jeffrey Steefel. He talks to them about the barriers of bringing MMOs to consoles, why no-one else has done it successfully and where Turbine Entertainment fit into all this mess.
Steefel goes into specific detail regarding how he'd bring an MMO to consoles, as well as what sacrifices and amendments would have to be made in order for the product to be a success.
He also finally answers the question on whether Lord of the Rings: Online will ever make an appearance on a Microsoft or Sony console.
