WOW on PS3... is it really that much of a stretch?

ive been researching and the only reason ive found that blizzard can come up with why WOW will never make it to PS3 (or consoles for that matter) is its designed as a PC game with keyboard and mouse. is that really that hard to imagine on a PS3? bugger it, sell a PS3 WOW with a wifi mouse and keyboard set. people would STILL pay over $200 for that, or more! im sure it wouldnt be that hard to do. and imagine the money that they could make???

hhmm not that itll happen, im just saying its not really 'THAT' big of a deal to just sell it with a keyboard/mouse pack.

ideas?
opinions?

Why would you want that? WoW plays on almost any computer. there is no need or reason for it to exist on consoles.

also WoW lives on UI add-ons I couldn't imagine trying to play WoW on my PS3 healing a 10 man Trial of the grand crusader with out Healbot

i guess some people 'like myself' would just like to be able to play the world biggest online game on our consoles. other than my department of education laptop (free, but not super flash) i dont own a pc. they would have to add like 500 trophies for it! haha.

try Finaly Fantasy XIV online? that'll probably be the closest you'll get on a console.

you forgot to mention the endless interactivity with other players in an original and complex world. i have (had in the days i played it) just as much fun buggering around in towns or raiding/ganking as i did completeing quests.

yep. okay. good for you. plain and simple, i dont like this game. its funny though, because i love RPG's, but i suppose MMORPG's are completely different.

funny thing about WoW people play it like a job, they sell for IRL and even in countries like china people go to work to farm WoW dollars to sell to rich people to spend on a game.... reminded me of my online mud days when people would pay cash for something that was in realitiy...

I guess this sorta industry paid for my ps3 :|... and tv... surround sound... first 5 games... russian bride (jokes) well... i guess WoW an't so bad... but i shall avoid it like the plaque so not to lose my life in it.

i reckon that playstation wont want WOW cause if they did, people would just play WoW and not buy other games
+ why would people buy it for $200 hundred dollars for ps3 when they can get it for cheaper on their PC
