News is trickling in that this is legit. However, you need to get a link up. Fast.***MEGATON*** EA just bought BioWare and Pandemic
My heart needs a link to mend its brokenness.
Did you say legit? I mean this seems a little too out of the blue to be real.
Zounds! As long as they get to operate autonomously I'm cool with it.
*runs to the nearest bridge and waits for a confirmation link*
Yep. It's legit.Wow, megaton indeed. Now prepare to have to buy all your ammo in Mercenaries via microtransaction.
I sold my EA stock last month. Why? Why? Ever since then they have been bringing out better games and now this.Yeah, link would be good.
:shock:I was going to post the LOL wut pear, but this is more of a ''WTF?'' moment.
Elevation Partners, not EA.Edit: hmm, seems that was an old story when ricatello had left, or was leaving EA. Strange.
My only Reaction...
This is how the world ends.Or not, lol. I just googled it, most media outlets have nothing yet on this info.
I actually heard EA's president speak after BioWare and Pandemic merged, and he doesn't think as much of Pandemic as he does BioWare.He absolutely salivated over BioWare.

I'm not going to overreact until I find out more, but I really don't think I like this too much, particularly because of Bioware. It doesn't sound like a situation like with Bizarre and Activision, as they were directly purchased. This was more of a backdoor purchase, as EA bought out majority shares in the independent company that Pandemic and Bioware were mutually a part of. I'm particularly curious as to how THEY feel about this ...
Hmmm....it'll be interesting to see how it effects their projects.If anything, it might be beneficial to Dragon Age on PC, since now the project will have a major publisher backing it and publishing it.With the Mass Effect supposedly set to be a trilogy trilogy, EA will probably see to it that they publish any future installments instead of MS.
Wow. Definitely a bold move here...Pandemic I could see easily, but Bioware? I think this just ramped up the quality of EA...
I blame Bono.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONOT BIOWARE

And it's cool that more people will get to play Bioware's games. But I have a horrible feeling that EA is going to ruin both of these awesome studios.
