Umm, I not a console kinda girl, and this probably is independent of the development of EvE, but my first reaction is "Eww'.

Yeah. Not too excited. I wonder if the team developing it will follow the methods of the old CCP, or the current CCP.

If they make a PC platform for it, I will be down to try it.

Quote: According to Eurogamer, CCP unveiled some new game footage at its annual fanfest in Iceland this past weekend which showed, "a Halo-like shooter on a daylit, Earth-like planet surface. The architecture and gun designs were clearly redolent of the space MMO's art style."
Guess what, they showed vidcaps from another game. And I didn't hear ANYTHING about consoles on fanfest... This is all just rumors and speculation... nothing to see here, move along. _

Ok, in all seriousness, I think it's a good idea. In comparison to developing for PC's, consoles are easy-peasy to develop for (only ONE set of hardware to make it compatible with) and a good FPS is always a moneymaker. With an already popular MMO under their belt for marketing tie-ins, it seems like a win-win to me.

Hopefully it truly is very far off. They have enough on their plate, surely, without diverting their resources. Though, I guess, they may just farm out the IP to some developer out there to do the work for them.
But of all things, a first person? The closest you get to "your person" in EVE is your avatar photo. When it's not messed up, that is. Of course, maybe all this will come long after ambulation, in which case it may see more fitting.
If they do it, it has to be more than just a gimmick. It has to be more than "it's the same game you've seen 500 times, but with EVE!". You have to bring something new and fantastic to games to really make it worth while. And it has to be very heavily story-based. No multi-player. Just focus on a fantastic story/chronicle of EVE that tells the story -- not of an entire universe -- but a few very distinct individuals that you can craft a compelling story around.

While this is true, they did show consoles as part of their overall strategy to build and expand the ≡v≡ IP on one of the World Domination slides (together with the pen-and-paper RPG, mobile games, TV series etc etc etc).

fps on a console isn't really that much fun... sorry...
I'll probably buy it anyway because I will not be able to resist the temptation. It's about time I put something sensible in here, but I couldn't really come up with something so you'l have to do with this. Are you like really bored, or did you not notice this is my sig? |

Wtf? Consoles are by far the best place to play FPSs.
How long did it take for Halo to be released on the PC?

How long did it take before Halo was released on a console, once the genre had been invented? How much did it have to be watered down from its original concept? How imprecise are console controls to this day compared to the one that was born with the genre, almost 20 years ago now…?
