I'm quite happy to have them on PC, to be fair. So much more possibilities to customize and whatnot. There really isn't any reason to put everything on consoles =P

Right now I'm happy with a PC MMO game, but hopefully the console market can share in the wealth someday.

The thing is, some sort of console port for it wouldn't be half bad. I mean a lot of the stuff you can do in WoW WOULD be possible to simplify down to a console level.

At least Warlock gameplay ^^

Interesting indeed. Although I don't think I want more MMO's out of Blizzard personally. This coming from a person who's only tried WoW a few times and still really doesn't like it =/ The other thing that really turns me off is that Blizzard, like all others, will most likely get a Subscription Fee for the game. Blizzard is already making enough money as it is, and seeing them only want more with a new MMO + SC II + Diablo III... Just would not suprise me at all.

So since blizzard have more then enough money they should make games that arent profitable? Lets face it. If they make a new MMO and it gets anywhere close to as popular as WoW it will cost alot to keep up the servers, and not to mention customer support. If they dont have a fee then it will eventually drain their profits when the game has run for several years. What they could possibly do is make a fee for battlenet and if you pay it you will have access to all blizzard games online. That would be a VERY generous offer for the consumer. But i doubt even blizzard is that nice.

I think the main problem is the user interface, and how you would export that to a console.

This is true, though the Nintendo Wii with the remote will probably ease the pain of no mouse.

Well console MMO would be good and bad, it would be good to see a cross platform MMO but you would lack the action bars (play WoW alot)

So they ARE working on a new MMO? I thought that was dismissed? Perhaps we could still be looking forward to a StarCraft MMO! ^^ Would love that and the fact that they'll probably only focus on PC, it assures the best quality and content!

- They confirmed an MMO is brewing on BlizzCon
- They said it would be "New IP"
- They have lied before to hide the truth

All I got to say =)

Definitely don't see Blizzard making a game for the console. Let alone an MMO.
