NCSoft: 4 Titles Initially Planned for PlayStation 3

Geoff Heath, NCSoft Europe's big boss talked to GamesIndustry.Biz about the deal that Sony announced at this years E3 2007. Everybody's been wondering what or how many titles they are actually planning on the PlayStation 3. Well, there are 4 titles planned. Here is a list of important points:

  • The deal has been in the works for a long time -- NCSoft has been seeking someone with the right technology and support to get into the console business. Plus, NCSoft likes how the PlayStation Store works.
  • Since NCSoft has a ton of games, they initially need to dilute their options down to about four to stick on the PS3. We think they'll expand on their biggest titles, like Guild Wars.
  • New titles that are created will be exclusive to the PS3 and only the PS3. Although, Heath admits, a PC version of whatever the title is will probably exist. There are no plans to bring any games to other consoles.
Me, personally, am hoping they make a modern day type MMO like Megami Tensei Online: IMAGINE or Persona 3. Or at least port of Aion from the PC to the PlayStation 3.
