Hellgate to open on Xbox 360

Hellgate: London, the apocalyptic capital-based RPG, could be heading to Xbox 360, according to comments attributed to US publisher Namco Bandai's director, Zach Karlsson.

"It's highly unlikely that such a notion (bringing Hellgate: London to Xbox 360) is far from the company's planning calendar,"Karlsson told industry website Next-Gen.biz. Or, in other words: It'd make a ton of cash, so why not?

Publisher Electronic Arts was unavailable for comment at the time of writing but we're convinced that Hellgate: London will warp on to 360 sometime in the future, and its MMO-style gameplay could be a huge step forward for the console and its Xbox Live service.
