E3 2008: Sony's Ambitious Console MMO Plans


LOS ANGELES -- One thing was made very clear during my meeting with Sony Online Entertainment: The company absolutely must have some amazing technology up its sleeve for The Agency and DC Universe Online.

Both games, unlike traditional MMOs, were built from the ground up to feel like console titles -- The Agency is a first-person shooter, and DC Universe Online is an action title -- a necessary step in courting each game's planned PlayStation 3 audience.

Really, the only similarity they share with traditional MMOs is that each game has a persistent world with persistent characters. (Source Wired)
