EA Nabs Bioware Corp and Pandemic Studios
Electronic Arts has acquired two independent development houses, Bioware (Mass Effect) and Pandemic Studios (Mercenaries). Get the full story at Joystiq!
Will this mean Bioware and Pandemic’s quality of future titles will go down the tubes? Or will EA’s new parental presence assist in letting these two studios do what they do best?


I wouldn’t be surprised to see Microsoft pay a lot of $$$ to keep Mass Effect as a 360 exclusive. If EA starts to mess with Bioware and Pandemic’s work in order to get stuff released faster, I’m gonna be so pissed! Don’t screw this up EA!
Everyone has the lowest expectations of EA. For one Mass Effect is still being published by Microsoft and they funded the production of the game so I doubt that the game will come to other platforms.
