NCsoft do have Guild Wars 2, which is essentially WoW, without the monthly fee.

Yeah, I've got a little tired of the instanced nature of GW. Plus, despite the fact that they start out trying to avoid putting grind in the game, they ended up doing so by the end anyway.
I hope GW2 can take the bits that we've seen work well from all MMOs and with its no-monthly-fee nature make it mainstream. And this time, just add new content and not ridiculous grind titles..

If you think GW2 is WoW like without the fees you will be sadly mistaken. Its quiet unique and does have a lot of fresh cool ideas and not to mention a limited persistent world(majority is instanced). I really hope for the future of MMO's GW2 is more like GW than like WoW. GW was seriously fun and worth every dollar.

did NCsoft forget that it signed an exclusive deal with Sony to develop mmorpgs for the PS3, because i haven't heard a peep out of anyone about any NCsoft developed PS3 mmorpg.

I think they're chilling with that "Super Ultra Ultimate ZOMGfest" game that one BBC guy keeps talking about.
