Confused about something

Is AoC going to released on Xbox360 or not?

Faq: 11.12 Are there any console versions planned? just to make sure a Xbox is still considered a console right?

We have stated that we would like all future Funcom MMOs to be released on consoles, but we haven’t made any announcements when it comes to this for Age of Conan. http://community.ageofconan.com/wsp/conan/frontend.cgi?session=rhe59sn5r8xjh2ung9kxoi0n3suweg&func=publish.show&template=content&func_id=1339&sort=PRIORITY&table=CONTENT

What platforms is the game being released on?
The game is currently being developed for Windows and Xbox 360. http://www.ageofconan.com/en/faq.html

    DX9/XP will play it just fine, the only thing different is Vista has DX10, and that means more lush backgrounds and more NPCs on screen in cities... things will look like a "notch up" in GFX quality, nothing more...

    The top tier of GFX in DX9 is only one small notch below DX10...

    I'm just asking because Shadowrun is Vista only. I was just making sure that that wasn't the case for AoC.

    No its not, I stopped following Shadowrun a long time ago, is it REALLY Vista only? Considering the marketshare that XP has that would seem like suicide, but M$ have been whoring that and Mechwarrior's IPs for a while now, I have no reason to think that isn't possible

    Also Yeah Shadowrun is a Vista only game, it seems its been already hacked to easely be converted into XP

    There is also talk of hacking XP to use DX10 features... they keep trying to say how new and different it is but thats "buy new shit, upgrade nownownow" crap...

    I doubt DX10 will come for XP in a while.. They'll want to "force" people to upgrade to Vista for a while longer, so they'll probably wait a while after the has come some big DX10 games.

    DX10 will never "come out" for XP... thats why they have to make a hack for it
