From Yahoo.biz:

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:ERTS - News) today announced an agreement with Elevation Partners to acquire VG Holding Corp. -- the owner of both BioWare Corp. and Pandemic Studios. This acquisition gives EA a strong competitive position in key genres in interactive entertainment: action, adventure and role-playing games. The two studios have been recognized for creating some of the highest-quality games in the industry.

[Then a bunch more BS about the deal and the companies involved.]

If and when EA makes their own console, we are SCREWED! 

Sorry dude, this is the third thread about this today. The other one is still on the front page though, and there's quite a lively discussion going on in it.

I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to lock this one up for organizational reasons.
