Console mmos.

Does anyone have a list of any console mmos are mmo type games that are coming out? I'm really interested in them. My computer isn't up to snuff anymore but I still want to play mmos. I heard FFXI was a grind and Phantasy Star Online, which I played for a while in beta, was a bore. I know Age of Conan is one mmo coming out on the 360, I'm just wondering what are the others.

Here's a list of what I know is coming out for consoles. A * means it's already out.

Xbox 360

APB
Age of Conan
*Phantasy Star Universe
*FFXI
Untitled bioware mmo project

PS3
The Outfit

Wii

Animal Crossing Online?

    I'd like this thread to be about current and upcoming mmos on consoles instead, considering there's really not a lot of mmos on any particular console.

    Sounds like a good idea, I'll change the post and title.

    I thought The Outfit was a 360 game only. Anyway, add The Agency to the PS3 list.

    The DC Universe mmo should go to the PS3, while the Marvel mmo go to 360, but no one really knows what's happening with those titles as of now. There's also that rumored SquareEnix mmo coming for ps3/360/pc, but there's no other information at all.

    I wonder how much of an "mmo" the next animal crossing game is. I think that game doesn't really need the mmo treatment at all, it just needs to improve whatever functions it has online for easier multiplayer interaction.

    Huxley, the FPS Planetside style MMO for the 360 and PC could be added to the list. I think that is suppose to hit in '08.

    Marvel Universe Online, if its still happening, which is pretty questionable, is supposed to be on the 360 as well as PC's running Vista.

    Do either of the 360 MMOs not suck?

    Phantasy Star Universe is fun if you like the Diablo 2 style gameplay of running through randomized dungeons killing monsters/bosses for random item drops. I tried out the new expansion stuff and didn't see anything to keep paying $10/mo again.

    I never much liked FFXI, I tried it out at release on the PC and quit after the first month, and tried again during the 360's beta and stopped playing after a week. It does have it's fans and a thread here, they could tell you more about it.

    I'll be shocked if Huxley ever gets released. Something about that game it just seems like it will be canceled at any moment.
