Well, being 40 something and growing up reading both Marvel and DC (reference the article saying SoE picked up the rights to DC), I might enjoy playing an mmorpg with those characters. But it would have to have long term solid gameplay, unlike City of Heroes did (for me at least). I look for the long lasting play in the style of EQ1, with other things to do besides mission, mission, mission. That said, I am sure both Microsoft and SoE are banking on the success of City of Heroes to fuel both of these games.

I read somewhere the price point of XBox 360 and PS3 were going to be MSRP around $400, and tack on a monthly fee for an mmorpg and I think it will be quite an exclusive player base.

As I've said elsewhere, I cling to the hope Vanguard will be finished and move forward the gamestyle of the original EQ.

Interesting, I was just wondering if we wouldn't see more console MMOGs after the next generation consoles came out. I'm more or less indifferent to the Marvel universe, but if it turns out to be a good game it doesn't matter that much what the setting is.
