On BioWare and Microsoft

[Apr 19, 2004, 7:30 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Bioware purchased by Microsoft? on Ferrago offers another report from the Polygon magazine with the Half-Life 2 story from earlier today (story), saying : "The latest issue of Polygon magazine is reporting an unnamed source from within Microsoft's Game Studios publishing division as stating that Redmond will imminently announce the finalisation of a Bioware purchase agreed. The continued rise of Microsoft within the industry will, rumour has it, be confirmed at E3 next month." HomeLAN Fed has a vague response about all this from BioWare: "BioWare's upcoming Xbox action-RPG, Jade Empire, is based on an entirely new BioWare intellectual property and slated for a Holiday 2004 release. Microsoft is the publisher for Jade Empire. Microsoft is a certainly a valued business partner with whom BioWare enjoys a very positive and cooperative relationship."

I was just checking out their forums, and their most recent poll just happens to be: How many people other than yourself play games on your Xbox?

And the majority of the responses? We dont own Xbox's

When will they learn.
