Microsoft is not buying Bioware, we just voluntarily made our killer Star Wars RPG an Xbox exclusive for 6 months screwing over the PC gamers who got us to where we are today.
So you're saying that Microsoft bought Red Storm too last year? Because Splinter Cell was a six month exclusive also. Microsoft has done this with several games from out-of-house developers.
