From NCsoft's new NA President Chris Chung:

Quote
1UP: We've heard that NCSoft's newest studio in California is dedicated both to maintaining the City of Heroes franchise and to working on PS3 development. So would it be a great leap to expect City of Heroes-related content on the PS3?

Chung: [laughs] I can't tell you specifically, but yes, we are reviewing all our titles. In my opinion, there are a number of titles in our portfolio that are really suitable for consoles, and City of Heroes is one of them. But we're looking at all of our products.

Guild Wars seems a more logical candidate, especially since Chung's history is with that MMO. However, I didn't know that NC^2 was working on CoH/V AND PS3 development, so it could fit.

I would have asked if Chung was behind the dumping of Spacetime / Blackstar, but I suppose the article was mainly a puff piece.

I think I'd give it a go on a console.  I don't have a PS3 yet but at the rate the price goes down, I might HAVE to get one.  So weak am I.

Does the PS3 support keyboard and mouse?  Hell, whoever supports keyboard and mouse and gets  WoW will have money hats....

Apparently the PS3 has enough USB ports to support such things. I don't think there is an official PS3 keyboard though.

Any USB or Bluetooth keyboard will work out of the box. So, basically, every keyboard made currently (do they even make PS/2 keyboards anymore?)

Mouse would be a killer for all those FPS on PS3. Too bad it is not supported by the games apparently. Meh  swamp poop

Mouse/kb works for UT at least.

Not sure what other fps's, but whatever. Some of those games are cool no matter what.

Only for the really retro among us. http://pckeyboards.stores.yahoo.net/cus101usenon.html.

After 25 years I can't use any other keyboard. :(
