As 9mil PC gamers have allready proven.
Im baffled as to why they havent implemented more pc type features for the xbox.
I mean it is Microsoft after all.

Some people might want to keep a console a console, and wouldnt like the idea of PC ideas being used in certain areas.

But the fact is, that if people want to have a better online experience and want to play online like the games are suppose to, then it is the only way.

As for the ?

They would have to make a brand new type of xbox/or xbox type machine to run dedicated servers but i bet they wont bother with that,
so the best option would be to have a PC server, and make an emulator, so that the server can run xbox 360 games.
Im very surprised they havent done this already, and im sure it isnt that hard to do, becuase you can download free emulators for Ps and PS2 so you can play PS games on PC already, including sege megadrive and Snes games etc.

So to be honest i cant see this happening until the next xbox is released, maybe not then either. Depends if they actually realise that online lag, and connectivity issues are a problem.

Games shouldnt be released with these problems, its not fair on the customers.

Yes WoW would deffinately sell, i dont think it will be as popular as the PC version tho.
Mainly because proper MMO's havent been introduced to 360 before, and most 360 gamers play racers or FPS games, and see MMO's as kinda stupid.

Even as a hardcore PC gamer myself, i still dont think that console owners should miss out on a WHOLE GENRE of games.
Maybe if they were to introduce proper 360 servers, hopefully they will implement cross-platform gaming with the MMO's, as on MMO's there should be no advantages/Disadvantes to using a KB and mouse or a Pad.
