Yep now there are going to be Massively Multiplayer Online Games (hopefully and RPG also) based off the Marvel Universe for the X-Box 360. Really thought Sony would gobble up the rights also. Guess I'm going to be getting an X-Box 360 for sure now. Anyhow this is good news. Though with a MMORPG based off of DC for the PS3, and now one based off of Marvel for X-Box 360. That leaves me wondering whether Nintendo is planning the long-rumored Pokemon MMORPG? Nintendo would be stupid not to to compete with Microsoft and Sony.

Man SPS,

I’ve been ping ponging the idea of getting an X-Box for a couple of years now and it’s looking like I might finally get one.

Thanks for the info.

Drat. I don't really like it when consoles get exclusive deals, especially to something like this. Oh well...

Still going to keep to getting a PS3 though unless X-Box 360 ALSO gets Final Fantasy.

X-Box 360 is also getting FFXI as far as I know. But yeah this has definetly signed my check for a X-Box 360. That and Perfect Dark 0.

Eh, FFXI continues and probably will continue to be the only FF game I'll never play.

As long as FFXII is going to the PS2 (and future FF games to PS3) I'm there.

But they're making it difficult for me to be satisfied with just one console. I may branch out eventually.

I'LL NEVER GIVE IN TO A SEX BOX!

I'm afraid that no matter what great deals are offered, I'll never put money out for a console.

I don't have the time to play enough games to make it worth the money. Guess that means I stick with the PC and hope they continue to put out some decent games for it.

Well, consoles get pretty darn cheap as the years go on.

You can even play older games for older consoles on the internet now (using ROMs). Nothing to it. You could even play the old Final Fantasy games on the computer now if you wanted to.
