>> From gamesindustry.biz: [QUOTE] Internet reports suggest that Microsoft is set to acquire Canadian RPG development studio Bioware, with the company planning to announce this latest addition to its developer line-up at the E3 trade show next month. According to the reports, a senior Microsoft Game Studios official broke the information under condition of anonymity; our own sources at the company remained tight-lipped on the subject today, but did confirm that the company is hoping to have a “massive” announcement at E3. Bioware is one of the most successful developers of RPG titles outside Japan, and it most recently won success – both critical and commercial – for its Star Wars title, Knights of the Old Republic. Previous titles have included hugely popular PC RPGs Neverwinter Knights and Baldur’s Gate.
