NCSoft promises to unveil PS3 game this year
The game will be far more than just a simple port of an existing game. In fact, Chung thinks that an online game must be reimagined to really work on a console. "You have to create a gameplay that's really suitable for the console space, the console experience. I mean, it's very different from PC."
Supposedly, the Mountain View studio (team behind the successful City of Heroes/Villians series) is donned the title of "console specialist." We can't wait to find out more, but let's not forget ... NCSoft has done this song and dance before.

That's a long way for the second half of the year. 4 more months? ;(
Maybe it'll pop in during Sony's little gamer event [if they have one this year]

I wouldn't mind seeing some sort of City of Heroes/Villains release for the PS3, those games always looked interesting to me but I've never been a big PC gamer.
NCSoft makes some great MMO titles, lets just hope they can get the feel for the PS3 and release some astounding MMOs for the PS3.

A new IP would make a lot of sense, but from my experience with NCSoft, Tabula Rasa and Guild Wars would be great for consoles. Limited UI's, simple targeting and control schemes ... sounds like a winner to me.

Since it is going to be showable so soon i bet it is a port and not a new IP. I'm really hoping for Guild Wars.

If they brought over Guild Wars, the masses would rejoice.
