D&D Tactics Producer Says PSP Could Handle an MMO

Lawrence Liberty, producer of the upcoming PSP title Dungeons & Dragons Tactics, thinks that the PSP could handle an MMO title. In an interview with Eurogamer concerning the upcoming turn-based RPG Tactics, Liberty said, “There could be an MMO made for the PSP. Even if it relied on a sizeable Memory Stick, the machine has the basic components to field an MMO. It could certainly handle something like EverQuest Online Adventures.” Liberty also said that the only thing holding the platform back from going online was the potential lack of an audience.

In response to some comments on how MMO’s are hurting RPG sales, Liberty was optimistic, saying, “I think there is room enough for both genres to thrive. The continued success of Final Fantasy is testament to that. The gaming market continues to expand, so I don’t view the RPG market as fixed.”
