Looks like Microsoft wants to see Blizzard Entertainment's World of Warcraft appear on Xbox 360, reports GamesIndustry.biz.
"We've been in contact with Microsoft...," said Paul Sams, vice president of business operations at Blizzard. "World of Warcraft was really built with a focus on PC, and while I think it certainly could get to Xbox, it's not something that at this moment we've decided to do."
The incredible popularity of the developer's first stab into the populated MMO market with World of Warcraft has proved a unanimous success. As next-generation consoles advance online integration, the lack of a console version becomes all the more surprising.
Right now, Blizzard sees the lack of a keyboard and mouse holding back any console renditions of World of WarCraft. "Those are things that are not standard, they're peripherals, and peripherals have historically not done well for any of the console companies unless you're talking about additional controllers or memory cards," said Sams.
Seeing as how Square Enix overcame this problem with Final Fantasy XI on the PlayStation 2, World of Warcraft landing on Xbox 360 seems a question of "when" more than anything else.
