Now, I like this information as much as anybody but...rumors from "inside sources" have a 10% chance of being accurate. Particularly on the internet.

10%? You think it's that high? :)

Really, "inside source" rumors are usually garbage, it seems from experience.

I hope the Bioware thing is true, though... but I'm not counting on it.

If they can get a game from Bioware that's half as good as KOTOR or Jade Empire, then they'll be doing great.

Doesn't Microsoft own part of Bioware ? I don't think its something that will be happening though.

[Great Rumbler]

No idea.

I'm under the impression that Bioware is a free 3rd party that can do whatever it pleases, but it did make some exclusivity deals with MS regarding certain games. Temporary for KOTOR, then one fully exclusive, Jade Empire. After that, Bioware is releasing a PC only game. But, considering the nature of posting it as though they actually worked it OUT with MS that they could release a PC exclusive game... it does raise the question...

Bioware interview. They say they are working on two X360 titles, but mention the Revolution and PS3 only in passing... they also say Dragon Age could well become a franchise and have console versions, but the current title is a PC-only RPG... if they can do what this interview promises, it'll be fantastic (Baldur's Gate's single player and Neverwinter Nights' multiplayer... quite a promise there... (and interesting, because it requires them to admit that NWN's singleplayer was kind of bad... a true admission, but one I'm sure they'd rather not make...))... but after KotOR and NWN, I don't know. I'm sure it'll be a very good game, but ... as good as BGII? That'll take some doing.
