The estimate of an Xbox release for 7/17/2007 is very unrealistic. According to Funcom prospectus for investors, the company is planning on having the console version released in 2008. Considering that the developers haven't even started to work on the xbox 360 version yet, 2008 seems like a much more reasonable target.

Interesting, I never thought of obtaining release dates by viewing the companies prospectus.
Also, as for porting the code from Windows to the X360, I was recently pointed to the XNA Framework for DirectX by a friend and from what I've read there, if your project is built upon the framework, it will minimize porting the project to the X360.
According to this IGN article: "Age of Conan is due out this summer for the PC. The Xbox 360 version will follow within a year of the PC release, with Funcom hoping to squeeze it out in 2007"
So there is hope for an xbox 360 release for 2007, for those planning on playing it on the Xbox 360. Oh, and the devs did confirm that the "PC version [will] be the prettier one."
