If done well this might be able to work but its going to take serious amounts of work on funcoms side to make it worth while.
i.e. to attack on this game there is 5 different swings(left right, forwards, lower left and lower right). Now to convert this alone to a controller is hard, there are two choices I see, neither being great
1. use a standard button in combination with analog stick, this would limit you movement while attacking though.
2. use a diffeent button for each attack, since the xbox controller only has 8 normally used buttons, imediatly using 5 of these for a normal attack is a tad crazy.
If they allow the xbox version to use mouse/keyboard though then this game will work just fine as people will use it just like the PC version.
as for if they will allow xbox and PC users to play together it all depend how good a conversion they do. If they dont do it well xbox players would be at too much of a disadvantage and that it would be pointless mixing. I imagine they will do a mix, some realms PC only, some both and some xbox only.
The game itself looks great fun
getting it myself in 10 days time after my exams
( for PC of course)
Here is a little taster:
LivePvP - Massive Fight - Make Digital History - Lineage 2, World of Warcraft, Age of Conan, Warhammer: Online, EVE Online, Tabula Rasa, and more!
EDIT: just thought they could just use the digi pad for the attacks, dont know why I didnt think of this above
