13
Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures game director Gaute Godager said that he believes that the MMO's unique and controversial combat system, which has been scathed by some critics, will be ideal for the conversion of the game to a 360 format.

Speaking at GDC yesterday, he also said that the 360 version is likely to appear 12 months after the PC game.

Same here. I have yet to try a real MMORPG. This is going to be my first one.

3 - New content hopefully :-/
This would definately be worth it if they release new content with it. The thing I'd be most worried about is the game getting canned before it gets to the 360. The mmo market is a cruel mistress if you don't get a large player base that sticks with the game for a while.

Lets cross our fingers. Of course, I haven't heard any huge problems with porting from PC to 360 (if it can run on the 360's specs in the first place), so maybe that's an "at the latest" date.

4 - The fighting and content looks promising
But the graphics of Pc version were not good it was seamless I know but it is not on par with other titles, My be since its MMO. Hope they upgrade it in the 360 version, since Graphics are aldo a important factor that is the reason I upgraded from last gen to this gen.
But the cryptic studios champions online, Marvel online, DBZ online are looking more promising in graphics area than this one. Although Age of conan is much much popular.

The graphics are pretty good, and with dx10 effects it's even better. Check out http://youtube.com/watch?v=...

Interesting comments for a game that looks to be interesting. Let's face it some devs prefer certain platforms, albeit 360, PS3, and yes the Wii. It does not belittle the other console at all. Some of the game engines are more inline with a certain platform.
