At New York Games conference last week, Sony Online Entertainment president John Smedley made a speech concerned with the future of MMOs. The company is thinking about making MMOs as console game.

Smedley talked about the success of MMO games World of Warcraft and Warhammer Online and declared that \"For us, success is about making games that people want to play\". As one of two companies in the world that\'s ever done a console MMO, SOE had \"EverQuest Online Adventures\" for the PS2 - still operating maybe to come out about six months later.

Then he also forecasted that the console game will introduce a lot of new people to MMOs and at the same time they will also have a totally different kind of gameplay on the console. And all of SOE\'s MMOs is said to appear on consoles from now on.

By the end, Smedley told to the media that they are going out of our way in \"DC\" to attract female players: \"Because we saw that women were really the largest part of the audience for \'The Dark Knight\' [movie]. In fact, I heard a stat that said it might\'ve been more women than men - but I can\'t back that up, it was just something I randomly heard... But we want to make games that appeal to all kinds of gamers.\"
