But anyways, I think it's just another opportunity for NCSoft to make use of that deal they've got with Sony.

Besides, just because it was originally developed for a PC doesn't exclude it from being viable on a console. In fact, it would probably be the economical solution for players to buy it for PS3, since you get all that power for less than the cost of a PC. All you need to buy is a USB keyboard and mouse. Or even Bluetooth, since the console supports it. I'm all for it. I'm still getting it for PC, but I think it's a great idea from a marketing perspective.

And that doesn't mean they have to play on separate servers either. Since they would have the same means to play the game, there is no advantage for one over the other.
