There is no way an MMO based on franchise strictly developed for consoles will be pc exclusive, especially not with EA leading the way. There is way too much risk involved with releasing a pc exclusive Star Wars MMO, thanks to Galaxies.

I get the feeling it may not be KoTOR though it may be a new SW IP, pretty much the same thing though.

I am surprised that nobody is tapping the console market as far as MMO's, the control system would need some thought, but there is a huge market just waiting for an MMO on the 360 I reckon.

Well we won't get to finish the trilogy, a PC exclusive MMO pretty much takes care of that.

Well it never was a franchise developed strictly for console. Bioware traditionally releases the console versions of their games first and then follows up with the PC versions. This has happened for KOTOR, Jade Empire and Mass Effect.

As for EA, Lucas Arts and Bioware had the deal inked before the EA takeover of Bioware/Pandemic. Lucas Arts has it's own publishing arm and whatever arrangement was made between them and Bioware probably still stands despite EA's takeover.

I'm not really sure what Conan has to do with anything.. there's also Champions Online, etc. I'm curious when we'll ever seen Age of Conan on the 360, if ever at this point. These are games people typically play for years, what's the point in releasing one so late in the life cycle of a console? I suppose it's bound to happen anyway.

Champions seems like the best candidate for a successful console port.

Anyway, back to Bioware for a moment. It would not surprise me if this game were ported to consoles, given their marriage to EA, at least, that's why we tell ourselves Dragon Age will eventually suffer from a port. But there are two important things to consider here:

1) EA isn't exactly new to the genre (some might say they helped invent it), and they're (Mythic) working hard to complete Warhammer Online. Surely, we don't expect a console port of Warhammer?

2) The EA connection might not even be an influence, since LucasArts is probably publishing this. EA has been nice enough to Bioware to let them manage deals outside the boundaries of Electronic Arts, for whatever reason.. so Lucas will probably put this on the platform they think it belongs on first.. and who knows where they will go from there.
