PS3 Free Realms on way
News - Sony talk to Sony, console MMOs appear
Sony Computer Entertainment Europe have announced that they have doe a deal with Sony Online Entertainment to bring three MMOs to the PlayStation 3 platform in PAL regions.
DC Universe, The Agency and most interestingly Free Realms are coming to the console platform where traditionally MMOs fail to flourish. Free Realms is a mix of a social network and MMO with all the fantasy action (you know, spellcasting and all that) combined with a Sims style personalisation angle.
"This is an opportunity for SCEE and SOE to bring the best online experiences from PC gaming to the PlayStation 3 universe, the result of which will certainly benefit PlayStation fans," said David Reeves, President, SCEE.
SOE are of course synonymous with the rather popular EverQuest so let's hope their MMO magic can rub off on these console titles.
