NCSoft Making Sci-fi MMO for the PS3?

July 2007, SCEA entered into an exclusive game development deal with NCsoft, which is one of the world's leading developers and publishers of Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG). New job postings now show the possible fruits of the deal.

nice......that type of MMO I might actually be able to get into.................that and The Agency MMO

mikeslemonade6698d ago

Once again Mircrosoft drops the ball again. MS has the relationships and the online to make good MMOs and yet the PS3 has a slight lead in that department with this NCsoft game, the agency, and the superhero MMO.

Bolts6698d ago (Edited 6698d ago )

What relationship? If you know anything about MS it's well documented that they're the WORST company to partner with when it comes to MMO. Everything they touched turned into crap.

Lets review:

Asheron Call franchise: Ruined, thanks MS!

Vanguard: Epic fail.

The only company with a worst MMO record is EA. They somehow managed to sink The Sims Online, which should've been licsense to print their own money and some space game made by the developer of Command and Conquer.

I dunno then... Hopes its cool

mintaro6699d ago

MMO? hmmm, hope it comes together

Spike476699d ago

talking about startroopers or starship troopers or whatever that movie is called.

it was a rumor in some other post.

The movie is based on human fighting very large bugs in another planet and i don't know about u but it was fricken awesome!!!!!!

So a ps3 mmo of fighting bugs would be awesome aswell.

IMAGINE FIGHTING A HORDE OF BUGS COMING FROM THE LANDSCAPE A FEW MILES AWAY SHOOTING THEM BESIDE ALL OF YOU'RE GAMING PALS.

I REALLY DON'T SAY THIS ALOT AND IF I HAVE IT'S BECAUSE I WAS JOKING BUT THIS MIGHT BE BETTER THAN HALO.

yes I said it. :)

Relcom6699d ago

sound like Lost Planet.... God help us all

HarryEtTubMan6699d ago (Edited 6699d ago )

He makes it sound like they will be making Tabula Rasa which is a great Sci Fi MMORPG....alot of goodies coming to the PS3.... the tides have turned.

Watch the video... this is a very big deal

ravinash6699d ago

and that interview was 8 months ago.
Should start seeing stuff come out of this in the next year hopefully.

rofldings6698d ago (Edited 6698d ago )

Bubbles for you - I see you're back up to two! :D

edit: three! ;o

Bolts6698d ago

TR sucks and that game will not be a good fit for the PS3 unless you plan playing it with a mouse and keyboard. So far the only game that they can port directly is Dungeon Runners.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle14d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde21d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy21d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12521d ago (Edited 21d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga22d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199222d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga22d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman21d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger22d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box22d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion21d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7222d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7522d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit22d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14922d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7722d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
