Do PS2's and X-Box'es even have keyboards?

I believe there are keyboard attachments ....
this had occurred to me - the communication in guild/group/spatial chat is going to be impossible without a keyboard.

indeed - there apear to be no other sources for the "rumour" from this year's E3.

Still - it makes for a good conspiracy theory about the departure of Tyrant and the sudden direction changes in the CU .....

I'd imagine that if this would happen, the xbox players would have their own server/servers, and the PS2 people would have their own server/servers.


Everquest is on the PS2, and if i'm not mistaken, that runs on separate servers than the PC version. This would most likely be the case for SWG on consoles if it actually happened.

I think that might not be the case, as this would be sony's ticket to refilling the current servers.

Keep in mind that Everquest (SOE) was also ported to PS2, so I don't see why this wouldn't happen to SWG eventually...

I'm not sure how EQ: Online adventures worked though... did it have it's own server, or did PS2 players play on the same servers as PC gamers?

Really, it wouldn't surprise me. Though I wouldn't link it to anyone's departure from the staff.
