    And you thought Bioware will be doing (A)D&D RPGs forever... Well obviously it isn't so, because a while ago a press release was issued announcing to the world that Bioware will develop a Star Wars-based RPG for LucasArts (smart move, we've seen enough disasters lately). Here's a sniplet from the press release:

    SAN RAFAEL, Calif. -- July 25, 2000 -- LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC and BioWare Corp. today announced a partnership to create the first Star Wars role playing game (RPG) for PC and next generation video game systems. Expected to release in 2002, the game will be set in a time period prior to the Star Wars films.

    The agreement combines Star Wars, the most successful film-based license in interactive entertainment, with BioWare's considerable development expertise in the role playing genre. BioWare created the critical and commercial hit RPG Baldur's Gate™. The Star Wars role playing game will be developed by BioWare and marketed and distributed by LucasArts.

    Read the whole press release here.
