The official story: "We are exploring the idea of a PC version."--BioWare co-CEO Ray Muzyka.
What we heard: While at the European Developers Forum--the GDCE wannabe that ran alongside Game Stars Live! and EGN in London last week--Muzyka talked to Sanqualis about Jade Empire. Naturally, he was asked whether, like Knights of the Old Republic, the currently Xbox-only RPG would come to PC. "We're certainly interested in the idea," he said. "We own the IP, and we're interested in developing for the PC." Myzuka then dispelled any notion that Microsoft, eager for Xbox exclusives, would pay BioWare to keep Jade Empire solely on its console. "Microsoft's interested too," he said, all but sealing the deal. "But until it's officially announced, it's not something I can confirm or deny."
Bogus or not bogus?: Not bogus. It's just a matter of time.
