Someone tried to relate BioShock to an RPG using Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic as an example.
That got me thinking, last time I checked, the new Star Wars: The Old Republic was PC Only. Now, considering I have NEVER had a computer capable of playing good games (Besides Halo PC....BARELY), this fact bothered me.
I looked it up, and it seems they haven't said "No Consoles" either. They are still developing the game, do you think there's still a possibility of Xbox 360, PS3, etc editions? (I'd assume Xbox 360, considering Microsoft had the other games)

Well, it is an MMO. I doubt any consoles would get it because of that.

Yeah, pretty much. Sure there's some exceptions )Phantasy Star Online and FFXI) but PC users are a far larger market for MMOs. Bioware's crafty though, I wouldn't be surprised if they did make a console version as well.

Considering 1 and 2 were also On Console, and PC has been generically grouped into Microsoft/Windows, Microsoft may want to widen the market by putting it On Console.

Anyone love the first 2 games? I loved all the exploitable glitches. Especially the Infinite Robe glitch (Talk to the white haired female (forgot name) on ship to make her put on robe. Remove it and make her put it on again, and you'll get 2. Continue, then sell them all for Money) and Infinite EXP glitch (every time you looked at a certain Sith corpse in the Sith tomb, it'd spawn a giant lizard. using the lightning darkside power after doing this 70 times at once, you could get TONS of EXP in little time).
I also like how they brought back HK-47 back in the second game. He's a totally optional character, but his dialog is priceless.

I remember playing the first 2 games religously back then, and hoping for a sequel. I'm actually pretty disappointed that it's an MMO, as I never really cared for those types of games. If it came out on 360 would you play it, being an MMO and all?

I loved how gamesaves in KOTOR took a screenshot of what you were last looking at. I put in the Free Cam Cheat and got some explicit shots...

An MMO is a multiplayer RPG, like World of Warcraft. The first two KotOR games were RPGs, they were purely single player and driven by the story. This new one, you'll be playing with many other people doing quests for rewards and experience, grouping up to take down bosses, etc. I hope they make another single player one. I will not be playing The Old Republic.

Wait, why do you hope they make a single player version, if you will not play it?
As I expected, I understand that concept. But, even in that context, I'd rather have it for Console as well. Can't really explain.

Sorry to disappoint, but no console version is coming according to this (http://g4tv.com/thepile/hdvideos/37202/The-MMO-Report-Thursday-March-12th.html) link.

For NOW. Remember the Sea of Dreams debate? What about the "No PC BioShock 2?"

I think you read my post wrong. I said another single player one. KotOR 1 and 2 were single player, tOR is not. I won't be playing tOR but I hope they make another KotOR game.
