Microsoft has been talking to Blizzard Entertainment recently, but Blizzard has no plans at the moment to port the game to the Xbox 360. What is the problem Blizzard sees? It's simple, the lack of a keyboard and mouse on the Xbox 360. Here's a quote from Blizzard VP of Business, Paul Sams:
It is safe to say at this point that there will be no World of WarCraft on the Xbox 360, but there is a chance that if Microsoft develops a keyboard and mouse for the system that we could see the game on the new system. Is this a good move for Blizzard?

"We've been in contact with Microsoft...World of Warcraft was really built with a focus on PC, and while I think it certainly could get to Xbox, it's not something that at this moment we've decided to do."
