    Lets wait until it comes out. Games with better videos than that managed to fail over the last couple of years. The mobile MMO market is a pretty huge untapped market at the moment.

    Hardware limitations is the biggest issue. Most of the world's cellphone users are using cheap or outdated phones. I would still give it several years until there is a serious gaming scene on the cellphone.

    It sure looked good but I bet it won't run on older phones like my first gen Iphone 4. Also, from the looks of it, I think it's made for tablets, newer tablets for that matter.

    Well like any other game it's normal to be aimed towards newer models tables/phones. It's pretty much same with computer games. While most new games can still run on an old PC chances are it will be almost impossible to play :)
    What's more this game is mostly aimed for Japan and as we all know they are really high tech, so probably almost everyone have the newest models.

    I used to think that MMO are not suitable for smartphones. I got a friend who try a new smartphone MMO recently and I happened to be there at that time. Honestly, it's better than I expected but it is still not on par to what we have on PC. Although I believe they will eventually get better and better overtime.

    I've tried Order and Chaos on the iPad but it felt like such a ripoff of WoW. The developer Gameloft is known for that but I was quite surprised how similar it actually was. That's the only mobile MMO I've played.
