PS2? I laugh

it was supposed to come out for windows though according to some weird press release or something.

 

[Deku Tree]

How are they gonna sell it to new PSTwo owners? with a USB HDD?

 

[The End]

at this point they might as well release it on the X2/PS3, but really, it doesn't look all that more demanding than DQVIII or DC2. It could run on the PS2 without a huge graphics hit.

 

[Odysseus]

Yeah, I was thinking to myself as soon as I posted it that the lack of a HDD userbase would hurt its chances on PS2. But, you know, stranger things have happened.

Yes it's PS2/PC, but now it'll be called Dragon Quest Online.

FALSE!

 

[gofreak]

Heh, I remember people joking after TFLO was cancelled for Xbox about Level 5 spending MS's cash and releasing the game eventually on PS2 as the ultimate kick in the teeth..

 

[SHOCKIE]

I wonder what Microsoft did to piss them off???

 

[Nightbreeze]

Good to hear this game is still coming. I was really looking forward to it on the xbox.

They're probably going after the FFXI audience. Those people already have a PS2 w/HDD.

Screw the article the most important news on that page... Fifth Element Ultimate Edition DVD!!!!!

PC and PS2? I can't see it doing too well on either with both WoW and FFXI out there. And by the time it finally comes out, PS3 release will be less then a year away.

They should just wait for XB2 and PS3 release and make it one of the first MMORPG's for the system, IMO.

w00t!!


I would buy XBL for TFLO...not sure if I would get a HDD for the PS2 and I definately wouldn't pay for it monthly

Drop their project in mid development I guess.

I think the cause for Microsof to drop it is becuase they don't believe in MMORPG's on consoles yet or something. I hardly believe they dropped such a promising title because it took some months too long to develop. It happens on many projects.

 

[AtomicShroom]

And all this time I was hoping they were moving it to the Xbox 2 launch...

It would absolutely rule!

 

[Soul4ger]

All signs point to PSP.

BRILLIANT

 

[Jonnyram]

This article is the biggest load of BS.
The interview with Hino doesn't mention problems with Microsoft or a possible future platform. He just says Level 5 is grateful to all the fans that provided support and that he still believes in the TFLO project.
Sounds like a bad case of Chinese Whispers to me.

Or because they don't want to launch a MMORPG on a system with only a year of life left.

They'd be foolish not to have it on Xbox 2 (even more foolish to sell off the property and have it land on a competitor's system). It was probably the only Xbox game Japan cared about besides DOA.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

A PC version would be a good look.

 

[Azrael]

It's too late in the current console cycle to release another MMORPG. They'd be better off releasing a PC version, then a PS3 or Xenon port later on.
