AoC looks to be promising. However, I'm reluctant to play a MMORPG that will release on console. The main reason is because this game will draw an even more immature audience than WoW if it goes to 360. Many of you won't understand why, that is because your are dumb. Given this fact (and it is a fact) it will water down the want-to-be hardcore vibe. I understand that any MMO using level-base is softcore, however, the violent content (which is awesome) crys to a hardcore audience. Seems more like AoC will have identity problems in trying to figure out what age to appeal. The reason they do this is simply for subs and $. Too bad...

No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

More to the point, I'm sure the AoC community will be fine and relatively mature. Most of the 360 children will be busy with Halo 3. (I'm not saying that everyone on the 360 is a child, I own one and play on XB Live myself.) Also, I'm sure that most parents won't be too thrilled with the idea of paying for XBL and then paying for an AoC subscription on top of that.
